No, the SuperWimpytm Mac starts at $1600, the PowerMac starts at $3000, but it *should* start at $1600. Mactintosh: keeping up with yesturdays technology at tomarrows prices.
I don't think so. Even if they did, everyone and their brother would still be allowed to make modifications to it. Second, just because the main reason people use a device is to do something illegal, it doesn't make it illegal, as long as the device has other uses.
Sure they can void your warrenty if you apply a mod to your PS2, but they can't sue you, or the person who made the modification.
Come on, you aren't a premium content provider. You wont have that problem, your on slashdot. Even if you did have good content, you're giving it away to other people, they're just selling the information of how to get to your site, if you want a cut it's your responsibility to charge everyone who comes to your site.
I don't disagree with you in your facts, they're correct, but your conclusion is wrong, Netscape was still ahead of IE even with counting AOL, before AOL bought them.
After AOL bought Netscape, many of their best employees left, and AOL laid off about a 3rd of the ones left a few months later. AOL's biggest mistake though has been to not make netscape the de facto browser in AOL.
I think with the percentage of Netscape/mozilla, and AOL/compuserve, they would outweigh IE usage, and at least rival it.
I don't hate AOL for what they've done (yes, I'm a Netscape fan.), but I do wish they'd make some smarter choices.
I'm not a lawer, so I want to know, is this legal? Regardless that they are giving it away, it's still a advertisement, and the USPS is government funded, and regulated, even if it isn't government owend.
Airports are as secure as... I thought they were talking about Apple Airports (those funny round things). Still kinda cool, unless the airports get hacked.
He's using MANDRAKE on a SERVER. For crying out loud, you don't use Mandrake on a server. Get something realistic like Slackware or Debian, and if you want to be a idiot use redhat, not Mandrake.
The security guy at infoworld, a guy who isn't really a open source freak, said something about this on XP. Looking back, the more Microsoft hypes security, the more security flaws they release.
which costs $326 on pricwatch right now, given the fact that the athlon xp 1800+ whoops the p4 2ghz, the XP 2000 will beat the p4 2.2ghz, and the p4 2.2ghz costs $629 for the processor alone, plus double the ram cost, and more for a motherboard.
The problem isn't that everything is helpless, the phone systems are simply messed up as well. Frankly I find their excuse incredibly lame. A bunch of people calling "Ticket Master" shouldn't flood any phone system, and it wouldn't if they had provided enough equipment.
I'm just sick with local telephone people, and the stupid regulations on the lines.
Judging from the amount of posts to their comment section along the lines of "Don't use RPM #$!@#^&", and more describing the utter stupidity of it, I doubt the will be welcoming comments now, and they certainly haven't in the past.
LSB has a good potential, but unless they start excepting better standards instead of more popular, nobody is going to adopt it but redhat, and LSB will have been a waste.
Sorry, you loose, there's way too many shortcomings in konqueror to call it equal to mozilla. It's ahead of ie6, but that's about it.
Konqueror's biggest fault is 0 javascript. I have made really clean javascript code that spans from ns 3.0-mozilla 0.9.7, and it doesn't even start to run on konqueror.
If you really don't like the bloat in mozilla, check out skipstone, it's like galeon, but it actually delivers.
"software piracy" isn't really piracy, and it's not really stealing either, because the origional product is still there. It simply is sealing value, something we consider inflation. Some people would even say it's not stealing very much value, because most people who "inflate" software woundn't buy the product.
Many people have been saying that scince M$ and Lindows are in the same market, Lindows is wrong. I see a distinction in the market, but even if there wasn't, Lindows looks encredibly different from Windows. Sure it SOUNDS similar, but that's not the issue in copywrites. To the AAAL's out here: Lawers stink.
I'm not that upset though, because I didn't like the name in the first place, just like KIllustrator, though Lindows at least doesn't contain the entire other product name.

Maybe a Lam.. er, Lawyer could help me out.
2. More than 3 Linux Games...
1. Quake 3
2. Return to Castle Wolfenstien
3. Unreal tournament
4. Tribes 2.
5. Simcity 3000
6. Kohan
Time to wake up buddy.
I don't think it is, for a few reasons.
1. Nerds don't watch tv, and if they did they'd watch it on their computer. (monitor.size > tv.size)
2. Xbox sucks already and this will just make it worse. Fine for PS2, but we should be playing Linux games. (see point 1.)
3. Xbox uses Nvidia, Nvidia is closed source. We use Radeon 64mb or Voodoo 5, or Radeon 8500.
4. Xbox uses intel. intel is dumb, even if a p3 is ok.
And why do we hate him?

I'd probably be using FreeBSD as well, but without the driver support for things as tokenring, it's just not a option.
I do love FreeBSD anyway though.

Maybe microsoft should just change platforms.
What's tron?
...We just won't buy any cd's without the CD logo on them.
Come on, if you're doing big patches, it's simple with even the simplest package managers.
#!/bin/bash
/sbin/upgradepkg patch1.tgz
/sbin/upgradepkg patch2.tgz
/sbin/upgradepkg patch3.tgz
(slackware as an example). Why doesn't everyone stop fighting about package managment, and go with something more simple?
RPM doesn't have what it takes to be a mainstream distribution format.
which costs $326 on pricwatch right now, given the fact that the athlon xp 1800+ whoops the p4 2ghz, the XP 2000 will beat the p4 2.2ghz, and the p4 2.2ghz costs $629 for the processor alone, plus double the ram cost, and more for a motherboard.
I'd rather have a XP 2000+ anyway.
The only downturn of this incredible algothorithim is that you have to keep the origional file, nuts.

If you could belive it, I might be surfing on a barbdwire connection right now, I think they call it bdw. AHHH! get that cow a@*#p0fuis
Not only is this offtopic, it's also lame. Gnome still performs better than kde, and even if it didn't most people would say it doesn't matter.
