Cherry OS pretty much sucks right now--it'll probably die on the vine anyway. Save your legal fee money and make PearPC a better product.
I tried installing CherryOS on several machines--following the instructions, etc. I got kernel panics from MacOS X on all of them right out of the starting gate.
Maybe they should be called "Lemon OS" (or has Microsoft patented that one, too?)
It's kinda like when your woman sends you to the convenient store for tampons. You don't just buy the cotton ponies, you buy like a pack of gum, some beer, maybe even some Swisher Sweets even though you don't smoke. Be sure to pick up a Guns and Ammo magazine.
Anyone looking at the indvidual receipts is going to come to any of these conclusions:
You're white trash
You're a white trash woman
You're a white trash man covering up a tampon purchase
All of the above
What do you care? It could be worse--Netflix could think you're gay.
OK, you signed up to use "free" e-mail from the largest corporate player known for it's less-than-ethical tactics and you expected to get something for nothing from Microsoft? Yikes, people. I refused from the get go. My gut said it was a gimmick.
Nothing is ever free from a corporation--they've got people studying consumers to find out how to make a buck off of them. That's no conspiracy theory--it's just corporate life. That's why I work at an.EDU. [That and I'm a bit of a masochist].

Ya know, if I were a moderator, I'd mod this not funny but insightful (and funny). It's too true to not laugh nervously.
I'm no EE, but isn't the idea of CAT5/6 to have twisted pair to cancel out RF? It seems that sticking it against a large aluminum door frame [as pictured] would exacerbate the "antenna" you've created. Unless, of course, you're trying to create an ineresting "wireless" network.
I was cut short...(my wife made me get off the computer). Meow. Whip-crack.
What I wanted to say was this is good tech to aid extraterrestrial exploration and extra vehicular work done remotely. Some of this is already in place with the Mars rovers, but I imagine this sort of application could help the folks who navigate those type of drones. Models created by surveillance cameras could offer a good virtual environment for planning movements--esp. when there is a significant delay for communications.
Don't betray your company's trust and NDAs. If they pay you they have the right to request that you obey the rules. It's fair. Don't like it? Quit and program for RMS.
However, this ruling does put "journalism" on the spot, now doesn't it? Now that the former mighty flood gates of information have been undermined by the little faucets all over the net, news and media sources are rethinking their game. Those of you mourning this day thinking, "alas, that unsinkable bastion of journalistic integrity known as source anonymity" should forget about this and be more worried that Comedy Central's Daily Show rules the roost. Dan Rather was the last Samurai. Welcome to corporate media: cue the hot chicks and violence. I'm thinking the "The Running Man" is probably coming soon. Down with The Man, man.
Man...what the hell is that smoke coming from that party next door doing to me...those brownies were good, too...I'm hungry, dude....

How in the world can you track that? It doesn't take much to "off-shore" one's identity to a neighboring state or other silly e-tax evading tactics. If they want revenue, they should tax stupidity. I suppose their state government is a tax shelter for that.
We got lawyers, yes we do. We go lawyers, how 'bout you?
This is silly. I don't think the patent for the "juke box" is anywhere near the finished product. The Hong Kong company is just another of the hyenas that come out to pester the larger corporate carnivores for their piece. They have as much claim as SCO has on Linux.
I've found my music composition degree to be most useful for working creatively with set theory. I wouldn't recommend a full 4 year degree in music composition or theory, but perhaps getting one's feet wet with basic theory and practice would use help turn that corpus callosum into a high-speed highway.

more ex-wife jokes:
My ex-wife and I used to make love doggie style--I sat up and begged, she rolled over and played dead.
I had a Freudian slip with my ex-wife at breakfast. I meant to say, "Please pass the sugar" but it came out "You ruined my life, you rotten bitch!"
yuk yuk yuk
laugh. mod down. move along.
Then again, Gopher and WAIS kinda sucked at your soul, too.
Click here now to be a consumer whore! yikes.If this guy ever met my ex-wife, he'd know that black holes truly exist.
Of course, our simian siblings don't like Macs--they haven't yet evolved.
Awe, Man! This is a joke? I spent the last 45 minutes outside waving my arms like a chicken in a blender.
I'm glad Paris Hilton is going to be the new Linux chick, though. Maybe she'll hook up with Sidd Finch?
Good points.
But, I wouldn't back-burner the geek factor too much.
If the product doesn't work as promised, they'll probably call a geek. It either gets fixed or the user gets educated about the best solution.
That's been my experience, anyways.

Ohh, if I only had Mod points--you'd get a funny.
FWIW: I posted in the form of a question--I didn't know or pretend to. Thanks to those who didn't smack me down but set it straight (or tried to).
Everyday's a school day!
Cool. Thanks.

A capitulation theme is pretty much what you see here at Slashdot. Perhaps this post is also. Oh, the irony.
