There is no Linux version of Zork. There is only one version of Zork, and it's for the Z-machine. There IS a Z-machine for Linux. But there is also one for the Game Boy...
It is as intuitive as the mouse itself. It goes like this: hmm, when I mov this thing the arrow moves too! There's a picture of a cd on there, lets press a button while the arrow is over it. I have two buttons which one should I press? Let's press the right one. Ohh, a list, I can do stuff here, cool.
Actualy more intuitive than a double click, and I love my double click.
A typical moron has instaled/used windows. We need someone who hasn't. Mandrakes instalation is as self explaining as that of w2k, the diference beeing that in mandrake you can do anything with the mouse. Now tell me again, wich is easier, if you haven't already learned all the quirks of windows?
Thats complete BS from a Windows zealot, i love Windows as much as anyone else, but tahts jsut biased crap. Windows takes way more knowledge to get set up and proficent with. Outta 20,000 random people, 90% of em with find they way around installing and setting up BSD/ Linux. I personally have helped tons and tons of people with Windows problems and thats why i dont see it as a viable desktop platform. Its just oo unstandardizer and unpolished, thats all theres to it

Almost. There is "regular" "italic" "bold" "bold italic". I don't whink I have ever seen an "italic" or "bold italic" monospace font...
What gives me great hope is the look of the Vera Mono Sans font.
I agree. Can't wait to see it on my gnome-terminal.
Enjoy
GNU/Linux. I installed Quicktime via the Crossover plugin, too bad my machine isn't powerfull enough for a smooth playback.
Here. I hate to look at movies within a web browser, is there actually a QuickTime plug-in for Mozilla?
We at Showtime Online express our apologies; however, these pages are intended for access only from within the United States. WTF!?!?
The text in MSOffice is almost unreadable, how did you choose the winner?
What do frickin' ringtones offer?
You don't have to take out your phone everytime a phone rings. That's a problem when everyone has one.
I just don't understand how there will be more of a story out of "matrix".
Why are you talking about "matrix" when the story clearly says "matrixx"?

Try the mom test and you'll see what I mean.
You mean get some mom that hasn't ever used a computer or get one that has used a windows computer before?
Only after a still-undisclosed number of hours spent making everything work just so.
You see, just like windows!
I find Linux to be inconsistent, incomplete, unpolished, unprofessional, undocumented, and downright frustrating
You will answer this: I don't see where that really matters in context of this discussion. [..] you're being subjective.
Linux is as easy as Windows, because: This is not a matter of opinion; it's pure objective fact.
Take a week to learn emacs.
I wonder if there was a bsd type license (let's just say it had a clause saying all derivates must be bsd--so it couldn't be made gpl)
That wouldn't be a BSD type license anymore, it would be a copyleft license, like the GNU GPL.
Or just turn it off.
He wasn't always the richest hobbit, look where he got most of his riches. Was't that work? And he wasn't as rich as everyone imagined.
Racism is about races, not colors. Humans, hobits, elves, dwarwes and whatever gandalf was all worked together...
Just stick that DVD into your VCR, it's all so easy.

Wait, I can't fit that tape into my DVD player!
That dee-vee-dee thing looks just like a cd but doesn't works on my CD player!
Bet the picture?
Left mouse button, right mouse button... all the same isn't it. Now try some advanced stuff with your TV without reading the manual...
Talk about unfair moderation, the guy who likes aqua gets moderated up. But when I state my honest opinion it's flamebait...
You mean the ugly interface that too eye candy too literal?
That would be holograms.
And what if people actully don't like you?
