Buy LCDs sold in Europe. Here in Norway we've got 5 years warranty against manufacturing issues, so they'll have to be built to last! Keep away from the nonames.
My 42" LCD is over 4 years, and has probably been on for half of those - picture is as good now as it was when I bought it. Only reason to upgrade is that I want LED back-light strips and bigger screen area.

Religious views: Christian 'nuf said! - It's the Norwegian counter part of Timothy McWeigh. Nothing to do with Al Queda or any other Arab connection - more similarities with the Norwegian "Tea-Party"-look-a-likes.
A commentator in Norway said that "American politics seems more like two groups of teenagers battling it out between each other, than two political parties", which I think sums it up greatly.
No - that's why you need government to fund stuff. People don't want to do anything unless they see the immediate return on investment. Donate to doctors / engineers without border and feel instant gratification. Donate to some science thing, and there might be something in 10-15 years being developed because of it.
No, we can't trust the public to fund something that's 10-15 or even more years down the road.
In addition, most people claiming that "Gimp is not suitable for professional use" have never used Photoshop for professional use either. (Not saying all, but some of the most loudly ones for sure!) They're just repeating something they heared long time ago.

More American jobs? Cheaper software? More innovation?
Some people just can't handle change.
We had the same issue when we changed from Office 2003 to 2007.
No, the difference is that Russia scrapped their shuttle programme, and continued with something cheaper they knew did the job required.
than current probably ;)
Because I like Sony shit better than Microsoft or Apple shit

The facts are, he was a right wing nationalist, conservative christian and idolizing the Knights Templar and the crusades.
It's not a minority in US, but in the world in general.
All the gallups I've seen point to less than 50% acknowledges evolution as a fact.

Buy Oracle - it's cheaper!
I met this "drinking black hole" on Wednesday....
I've never seen an European car with automatic beat a manual on the mileage. Ever!
:D
Automatics are still more costly, more expensive with regards to maintenance, and also when you look at the fuel consumption.
And also, automatics are more boring to drive - I probably would fall a sleep and end up in a ditch if I had one...
Yes... Since the 70s in Europe
Sorry, as a Norwegian, I can say: Not funny!
And slashdot moderators are currently qualifying for a "troll" moderation.

Personnaly, I think it's the distribution. Works perfectly fine on Slackware 13.37 with any of the NVIDIA drivers..

Anyway, isn't the bagpipe an English invention?
