I believe the "community" distro will be like debian "unstable" and the "official" will be like "stable".
Also a new release does not mean that older distro's get support cut off necessarily.
it's not OUR job to bring democracy to the world. WE did it ourselves, so can they. I don't mean to be heartless but people need to do it for themselves for it to have any meaning.
Give me a game to build a dream on and my im-ag-i-na-tion will thrive up-on that game. Black-Isle, I ask no more than this,a game to build a dream on.

There will be more machines with linux installed and I'm 100% sure there will be more exploits found but I don't believe that with increased usability comes more security holes.
My grandma and my mom both run mandrake 9.1 (mostly because of the solitaire/tetris etc.. games included in KDE/GNOME) and they'd never once been infected by a virus or even had a crash. My mom was previously running mandrake 8.2 and updated to 9.1 HERSELF, just by popping in the cd's and rebooting like it said on the box.
Linux is NOT 100% secure and probably never will be (nothing is 100%) but to say it will turn into windows as more people use it is baseless and untrue.
Use windows.
Debian will not do everything you want and the kitchen sink out of the box. It requires patience and configuration and reading. If you wanted easy and to have it "just work" get a mac or a windows machine or better yet use one of the other hand holding distro's out there.
Debian is NOT redhat and I have no idea how you got the idea that they were in any way similar.
I've never busted a CPU, it's just a hassle. I never busted one of the The p4's I built either. I think AMD needs to work on a "snap-in" way of installing cpu's thats all.
After having worked building and repairing pc's I REFUSE to ever buy an AMD again while they still use the old press like theres no tomorrow latch. P4's are a BREEZE to install, you screw in the mounting bracket, put in the cpu, lower the heatsink until it clicks and you're done. No fuss, no muss.
FUCK AMD
Disclaimer: currently all 4 of my computers have AMD cpu's
microsoft is nice to it's friends as well. I don't like them because of the anti-p2p quest and selling me $20 cd's when dvd's are the same price with 10X the content.
what the hell is wrong with playing on the computer? Where should we be? At the Mall?
I'm 21 and i almost never leave my computer(s), I read books on here, i play games, watch movies, and learn.
I also work outside the house and go to the gym and have had a g/f for nearly 5 years.
Being an uber computer geek does not make you a fuckup, being a fuckup makes you a fuckup. I for one am sick and tired of people labeling me as a lazy ass bastard because i spend a shitload of my time on computers. I'm 100% totally addicted to computers and computer games and what exzactly is wrong with my life?
"If anyone else than me has gaming fucking up their life, I suggest they do the same. It might seem too radical, but you don't need that PC, no matter how big a geek you are (and I doubt you're a bigger geek than me), unless you're choosing a career down the road."
Gaming does not fuck up your life, if you have a job and pay for things yourself and have friends(online COUNTS) then why the hell should you have to give up something you like to do? That's total bullshit, I think you need to stop listening to all the "being a geek is a waste of your life" people and do what you like to do.

Goatse is down bitch
I've used about 100GB /month for 5 months and not a peep out of em.
I'm in the exact same boat. I don't want to buy a DirecTivo but I need a box that can change my DTV channels.

I wonder if you wrote to the cd every hour how many times per cd you could you could write the logs.
Predicting the future?

it's $1.75
I work for ATTWS customer care and boy do people get pissed off when they change their rate plan to a current one and we tack on that charge.
Why the hell is everyone forgetting ID software? there WILL be doom 3 for linux. Is ID that much more capable?
I will be buying Doom 3 when it comes out and I'm not so sure about HL2.
Loki games died long ago, Linux has grown considerably since then and companies who continue to ignore the market are going to lose money.
so patch the laptops right away, I doubt those are production machines.

How much media do we need? I'd like to brush my teeth and shave without stock quotes or CNN on my mirror. TV does not need to be EVERYWHERE.
