you're forgetting one thing... This is why so many people hate windows. Because everything that is shipped with it is Microsoft's. It's anti competitive to have the companies' broweser in the OS.
If Google made a distro that featured Google made products (and it catches on) the zeloats will just have another Windows to complain about.
Even if it's easy to install a replacment broweser/mail/IM/office package, it's the same thing as windows. People wont switch to your app if the one they are using appears to be working.
I still can't see where I went wrong, but that's cos I'm not very good writer. Was it supposed to be 'whom'? At least I was consistant in my mistakes.
The thing is, I'm not trying to convice you to pay me for a service that requires me to know how to write. Michael, being in marketing, is trying to get you to pay him for a service that requires good writing skills.
When you buy something from someone, they have the right to decide what they are selling. If they sell you an intangible product while contained on a tangible product they have the right tell sell you it under the condition that it is used in it's tangible form.
If you buy something from a seller and that seller is telling you that you are only buying the right to use it in its current form and you still buy it then that is what you have agreed on. You don't have the right to decided what the seller sold you.
That's not even true. This guy made the tiniest little hack (yes no cracking was invloved) to sourcecode that he got sent. He compiled and released it.
could this set the precident for the future? think about it, IKEA primarily makes products with "some asemberly required" now is there anything out there that you can think of that might "require some building" that could topple Bill Gates off his perch?
Each of America's allies needs America more than America needs them. Take Aus for example, we would all be speaking Japanease if it weren't for the yanks bank in the 40's.
Lets face it, America, big fucking super power with nukes, guns and crazy kids. Aus, lil country run by a migit who is kissing ass so the next time some country decides to take a chunk the yanks will come and save our ass... again.
Did you also notice that it was obviously done by a design agency? No design agency would (in their right mind) use Microsoft publishing products other than to extract text from clients that send them.doc files.
There is no way to tell from a pdf how the text was supplied. It may be possible if you got your hands on the Quark file but I doubt it leaves any reference to the origin of the text.
Microsoft's only product that comes close to a desktop publishing application like Quark is MSPublisher and can you see an MS employee making a pdf like this one in publisher?
It's ironic yes but not nearly as relevant as some people are claiming it to be.
I'd add a capacitor (bank) to that list, its to hard to produce a constant cycle on a bike. When you go too fast you would generate to much power though, when you go to slow you wouldn't generate enough which gives you a very wavy ouput, not real good for DC appliences. With a capacitor you can store the power you generate when you are going fast to use up when you are going slow.
I would also think about using voltage regulators with decent heatsinks rather than resistors, regulators tend to be more forgiving than resistors.

"logo's and banners." What'll it be michaelswilder.com ? Are you going to put an apostrophe when you pluralise or not?
I know I wont pay for marketing from someone who can't make up their mind on something as simple as that.
"he suffers from Parkinson's disease, diabetes and lung fibrosis as well as recently diagnosed Alzheimer's disease"
I never knew the guy but boy do I feel sorry for him.

wrong. One word: Telstra
Vote Democrats especially given their stance on OpenSource.
/. :)
Let enough geeks know about it and we might be able to do something. What better place than
The people who have no problems using product placement (and other forms of advitising) that's who.
I'll see that and raise you a 'you will also be servered drinks with ice unless you request otherwise'.
That's not even true. This guy made the tiniest little hack (yes no cracking was invloved) to sourcecode that he got sent. He compiled and released it.
Not to be confused with "Miiister Haaanderson".
You know why Telstra only make 20-30 calls to MS a year? It's cos their bloody phones are never working and their internet is always down!
Here in Australia we pay through the teeth for bandwidth so I'm guessing they just spent the last of their money on being slashdotted.
Nice going guys, kickem when they're down why don't ya?
How will the sharks with fricken laser beams be able to take orders if they don't have WiFi?
But what if the US went to war with China or India? All your sub no longer belong to US, all you sub belong to China or India.

Thats what they want you to think, they actully outsourced their Thailand judges to india.

Due to past experiance I can asure you that if your house burns down you'll lose your PC too.
Translates to Army/Size/Location
That only counts if FF is on. Next time we are waring we should just ask the server admin to turn FF off.

Still? I find it hard to belive it was EVER used for things besides spam, porn, and warez.
I can't find anything official but rumor has it this isn't the only MMORPG they have cancelled recently...
From what I understand they had been pumping money into it for quite a while. Oh well their loss.
