  1. The "Decade of the '90s" on Myths about Internet growth · · Score: 0

    makes the '80s "Decade of Greed" look like a kindergarten class. Bill "I never had sex" Clinton and Al "I invented the Internet" Gore really lead the charge too.

    Lies. Lies. Lies.

    Next time I hear about "greedy Republicans" I'm going to hit someone.

  2. Re:Screw HP on HP: Rival Printers Mean No More HPs Through Dell · · Score: 0

    Her being a woman has no bearing on her lack of performance as I see it. I just think that she focuses on the wrong issues - namely herself - instead of the company's well being.

  3. Screw HP on HP: Rival Printers Mean No More HPs Through Dell · · Score: 0

    Ever since Carly arrived she has been more interested in pushing her "image" instead of doing what's right for the company. She's running HP into the ground, and she's going to make a bazillion $ doing it, while killing the jobs of a bazillion employees.

    My next printer is an Epson.

    If they find a monkey with it's hair parted differently than the monkey they found last week they'd call it new "species".

    these "Radikal" jackoffs sound like terrorists to me. It doesn't bother me that they're cut out of society.

  12. Re:free won't cut it at my company on New York Times Plugs OpenOffice Suite · · Score: 0

    do a cost savings analysis of OO (free) versus MSO and send that to the head honchos. Your boss would rather the company pay a big bill than champion a project where he would have to actually do some work. If the honchos see a couple of hundred thou in savings, you're likely to at least get them asking questions.

    Could you provide more specific examples? The "evolution" of man from a great hairy cro-magnon to today's human (sometimes also hairy ;-) is really not that big of a stretch. bc

  24. OK People... on Consumer Technology Bill of Rights? · · Score: 1, Insightful

    Get of your collective asses, join this group and the EFF, and contact you congress(wo)man.

    Sitting here making witty, stupid "first post", or other "insightful" posts does no good at all. Email your friends and family. Discuss this with your coworkers or fellow students. Get up and get moving.

  25. Remember... on The Widening Tech-Savvy Gap · · Score: 0

    Micrsoft WANTS you to be confused. They're dumbing down each successive version of windows until some day it will be "push this button to create a document" (in Word); "Push this button to send an email" (in Outlook); "push this button to go to MSN" (as the default and unchangeable portal. Which only allows access to MS approved outside sites); "Push this button to play a Windows Media file" (which you bought off MSN and has DRM built in.) MS can then strong arm the media companies, music companies, et al.

    I'm telling you; watch for it. MS is changing YOUR computer from a general purpose device to a black box that only allows you to access what THEY want.
