Some people prefer it this way, a closed, carefully managed ecosystem. Some of us don't. I would guess the majority don't care and that regard, there is little incentive for Apple to change.
Exactly. I see a repeat of the browser wars here. If Adobe doesn't do something radical, and soon, flash is going to relegated to the dustbin of history.

So they're happy to have a single entity that focus on a subset of hardware with a consistent API and a development force behind it. Where have I heard that before? Let's see, it's run by a mercurial egomaniac...
She should also go and yell at Paperbackswap.com, used book stores and libraries. The heathens are violating your copyright because not one is paying you for your work.
You are not a troll. I have had nothing was positive experiences with Vista. It seemed weird, with all the complaints. You do need a decent computer to run it, true, but not a maxed out one.
I am willing to believe there was more going on there than just planes, but I don't think it was aliens or alien spacecraft. Probably some weapons testing, stealth blimps, etc.
Correct me if I am wrong, but isn't the James Web Space Telescope only gathering light in spectra beyond the visible light range? If so, it's not really a replacement for Hubble.
This doesn't mean a thing because while IE7 is fast; I use it at work everyday, it also breaks many web standards and does things in non standard ways. Speed isn't the issue here.
Microsoft reached it's peak power around 2000. Since then it has been in a slow decline. It's nowhere the dominant powerhouse it was ten years ago. Maybe the antitrust action was part of it, but I think it was because PCs became only part of the computing equation in people's live. There are tons of non-MS products out there; cell phones, PDAs, netbooks, etc, markets MS either missed or simply was incapable of moving fast enough to exploit.
Don't get me wrong, MS isn't going anywhere but their glory days are behind them.
This is by no means is the final ruling on these matters. If other companies try the same thing, they can be brought to court as Rambus was. The appeals court and the Supreme Court's decision to decline to hear the case in no way set precedent.
it did not support the Premium graphics client and did not run as well as the win32 client under Wine.
And you wonder why it wasn't as popular as the unofficial client.
KDE does install so much in a base install--I mean, so many apps. I wish there was a way to only install the parts I want, so I could make it as lean as could be.
My biggest gripe with Vista was it absolutely broke most of the apps I use in my job (helping the disabled). Eye trackers, voice, software, all non functional. I can't give these computers out. Now, I know some of this falls on vendors (Hello, Nuance) but the fact remains we need Windows XP for everything we have in our office to work., We aren't made out of money (We are a non profit); we can't just purchase Vista compatible stuff or upgrades.

It should run great on a pure Java OS http://www.jnode.org/
Never mind us waiting for a possible WarCraft IV.

I think the submitter default desktop install. During the install you can have a "desktop environment", which will be Gnome with TomBoy.

FrameMaker was a game changer for me -- to bad it was withered to one platform now.
640k should be enough for any...oh,never mind.

How about open sourcing Irix?

Yet the Wikipedia didn't bat an eyelash when Jimbo started Wikia using 'wiki' in the name. Double standard.
I recall dimly that it was Win2k.
That would be Windows 98.

They want you to watch Hulu on your computer, not on your television.

You are an idiot. You forgot that the leprosy dudes used reversed anti-proton streams to steal organs. Sheesh.

You just posted a lot but said nothing. How did Adobe come up with it's stats from such a small sample?
