  1. Re:Naturally.. on Apple Gives Laptops Speed Bumps · · Score: 1

    Argghh. Me too. Bought the 800mhz PB about a month ago, 40G, about $3200. Could get the same thing, bit faster processor, new video, for $2300 now.

    Welcome to Macland.

  2. Re:Debian is rock solid but the install ... on Two Reviews of Debian 3.0 · · Score: 1

    > thats the main reason why i didn't like the BSD /ports... having to compile a whole batch of file (like when you dist-upgrade) would use the power of your slow machines until the next upgrade :-) So, use the packages instead of ports...

  3. Yes, they are backward compatible on More on DVD-Audio and SACD · · Score: 1

    I just bought "Beggars Banquet", new re-release, and inside the cover they said that the CD had two formats: regular CD and this SACD format. I'd like to hear the SACD format, but to tell you the truth, the remastered normal CD sounded "kick ass" to these old ears.

  4. More "Innovation" on Microsoft Tries a "Switch" Campaign · · Score: 1

    Ah yes, another example of innovation, from the company that specializes in it [not].

  5. Freeing Software on Talk To a Convicted Warez Guy · · Score: 1

    It seems that warez is basically an attempt to "free the software", as in free beer. Though you are only in your early 20s, I wondered how much Richard Stallman's philosophy of and reasons for Free Software, as in freedom, influenced your actions (even though releasing binaries does not meet the definition of free software)?

  6. Re:Fragmentation is horrible on Ransom Love's Answers About UnitedLinux · · Score: 1

    well, if you would take a bit a time and read some documentation you would learn that you need to use Linux's screwy method of making the kernel think that the ATAPI burner is a SCSI device, then it'll work fine. Like mine with Debian.

  7. Best Quote: on The Economics of File Sharing · · Score: 1

    "But essentially, you're being forced to pay a company for a right that's protected in the Constitution...

    A: That's right. "

    I'm sorry, but in this country you don't have to pay companies in order to exercise your (fair use) rights.
