CmdrTaco does not have a degree. He dropped out so he could focus on writing horrible, horrible Perl code and playing games on the Windows 98 box that he keeps on his desk "just for games." He also likes to sit outside the public library with a stack of [unread] O'Reilly books until someone asks him if he's interested in computers and gives him the opportunity to launch into another pointless, illogical anti-Microsoft rant.
Everyone makes mistakes. Slashdot just makes more of them than most people.
Yes, the Indian Simputer is very good. I think that all Americans should buy one! Some people say that agents of our Islamic enemy have infiltrated the factory and altered the computers so that American national security would be compromised, but this is a silly idea!
I think that we should all buy a Simputer -- or maybe even two! -- and plug it into the Internet as soon as possible. It comes with much helpful Open Source software, such as BombRecorder, a program that American nuclear weapon workers can use to store information about American bombs! And it can synchronize with other Simputers using the power of the Internet! (Note that it is completely secure, because it is Open Source!) So I think that especially Americans who work for top secret military installations should purchase a Simputer.
And that is not all! As it says on the article page, Simputer also supports voice recognition technology! It requires broadband, though, because the microphone data is transferred to Simputer's voice recognition servers (located in Pakistan). This client-server model ensures that your data is secure, because it uses Open Source software, which never has bugs.
So go buy a Simputer today! And if you have a brother or perhaps a cousin who works for American intelligence agencies, he would probably appreciate a Simputer, which comes with advanced scheduling software such as ScheduleSpy, to help the federal employee manage his busy schedule! That is awesome, yes? It is phat! Wow!
