  1. Where are all the e-lawyers!!? on Examining Microsoft Update · · Score: 1

    oh wait, working for microsoft.

    I'm seriously, you guys. I'm dead tired of all the underhanded ways that go on on the internet. Its bedlam out here. Vagabond justice chasing the olive branch of the mighty dollar for all. I just clicked on 'Read More...' part and up came this story with a box-shaped ad for none-other than microsoft right in the middle of the page. Whaaaa-the-hell? granted it was internet explorer. So I goto Mozilla, no-ad. wait, then I do it again (on Mozilla) there it is again,
    cept this time its for IBM. whashfck!?
    I know there's adware and all of that, but when is this going to stop?

  2. Re:Mandrake rocks. on Mandrake Linux... Not Dead Yet? · · Score: 1

    I've just got to add 2-cents worth of reinforcement. Mandrake does Rock!! I've sampled the distros to see what I was missing out on and basically found Mandrake a better, more sensible, more feature filled, and smarter configured Redhat. They should get a little more agressive coroporately speaking. It would be a shame to see them go. Probably the best out of the box for the general user as far as I could tell.

    Oh well, it doesn't matter much anymore. If you're past newb stage you dont really need to be distro specific.
