The UK isn't in a bad way regarding kids today they're exactly the same now as when I was a kid 20 yrs ago.
The only difference these days we've got a news papers and tv channels that harp on about every little thing doing their best to make it seem like the streets are wild and dangerous places run by gangs of youths akin to cannibal tribes just to fill the 24x7 news culture and you've got so called adults who sit and go I was never like that when I was young while conviently forgetting those summers we pretty much all spent doing the exact same shit kids do now.
I bought it for when I'm working by the racks, I've also got a dell inspiron great machine/beautiful screen but is rather big and unwieldy in the tiny spaces I have to work.
The PB does a fine job all the basics ssh/telnet/VNC plus while I'm spending hours sitting on site waiting for the ok to pull the plug on some machine to upgrade it I'm happily watching a DVD or listening to some music.
Before I bought it I wasn't sure if it was a good idea but got all my various *nix programs runnning, good battery life and haven't had a single problem it's a great machine.
Actually I used to work for a company called Alphanet we did use an ancient version of unixware for the VOIP servers, a crappy OS a real hassle to use but it worked well enough for the purpose I suppose.
well atleast they could call it fried dead cow something McDonald's would have trouble getting away with considering the content of the items they claim as food.
Well of course you need to tax my CD-R's I spend all day just burning CD's full of music and that's all I ever use it for, except for the fact I'm deaf but never mind I'm burning music in case my hearing ever recovers.

Condemn him and get him some help ??
If you believe he requires help and I assume you mean mentally ill, condeming him is hardly the words of a real humanitarian.
If someone's ill you provide help and at worse pity but to condem and even worse hate only shows how in the end your no different to those you condem.
Firstly I've got to say congratz for knocking this one out. But to be honest how many more Operating Systems do we need?
I'd settle for Application software that worked the way I like to work.
