Tip - Civilisation III doesn't need the latest graphics card but it does need vaguely decent everything else. Civilisation II runs on a Pentium with 16mb at blinding speed, and also doesn't have "Culture Points". 'nuff said.
Let me clarify that. Joe Average New Zealander earns less New Zealand Dollars than Joe Average American earns US dollars, meaning if he changed his money into New Zealand dollars he would be more than twice as rich.
Check this out. The 256k is what I have. (A New Zealand Dollar buys about 50 US cents. Joe Average earns less New Zealand dollars than Joe Average (US) earns.)
Such prices do exist. In countries that speak English what's more.
Windows XP? Stable - yes. Packed-full - yes. Great features - yes. Nice desktop - yes. Fast - never. You'll never get XP to be responsive, efficient or boot in under an hour on, say, a P4 2.53 with two gigs of DDR and a GeForce 4. Wait until you can afford a better computer before running this otherwise brilliant "Operating" System.
We don't say DOS/Explorer/IE/Windows. There is no reason why open source can't have short and to-the-point names. It's not correctness, because it's a made up word and can mean whatever we want it to, and words can mean many things. Here, Linux means the kernel AND distros that use the kernel, and GNU/Linux means you use Debian and want everyone to know. Simple.
Because "Deep Thought" was the second most powerful computer in the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy pentilogy, and the most powerful ("Earth") doesn't have the same ring (Planet Fritz???). Simple.
Slackware uses "Dillon's cron", and I have no idea whether it has cron jobs for daylight saving - I haven't looked at the clock since we switched to the new time a few weeks ago. I doubt it. It's fairly minimalist.
Real hackers don't need an operating system. Real hackers don't need languages. Real hackers don't even, when it comes down to it, even need a computer.
Baldur's Gate 2 was the greatest game. As well as keeping you fed it had a.ini file which let you set the path to each cd. What I would do is copy the disc I was on to the hard drive and leave the others stowed away, which was a great help because small people with sticky, slippery fingers also used the computer. Maybe they do it transparently, or I don't play the right games, but I've never had a problem with CDs pulling stunts like that. Maybe game companies decided to make it up to us down under because we have no fair use rights.
I'm supposed to be doing this for my school, when I get around to it. Only difference is, we're using 486s from the attic which are all identical, and I tell you it's far easier to just install your favourite distro on there and share/usr/local and/home via NFS as long as the computers are fast enough.

typing "ipv6 install"
Windows doesn't support keyboards. You click...
And someone else... and someone else...
that reminds me... if I will Windows go up and down repeatedly?
And Longhorn slows down your computer further. Didn't you read the article?

And whatever happend to IPv5?
Probably the same thing as Netscape 5.
Thank you. Someone finally gets it right!
And the thing is, Judaism, Christianity and Islam all have the SAME god. Wow.

with a headline like Robots! who wouldn't want to read? 10 out of 10 for marketing.
You can't say this isn't in character.
Anyway, if Microsoft wasn't there, who would we hate?
Which is where the golden rule comes in: Those who hate filesharing, make the rules.
Offensive, tasteless, deeply unfunny, I'll give you that, but how the hell is this offtopic?
Another good reason to get cable.

But then we'd only have Microsoft to hate and they aren't nearly as evil. Without AOL... there would be no need for Slashdot.

So it's a pity the term "slashdot effect" is already taken, or I'd be coining it now.
And "Planet Fritz" sounds suspiciously like Palladium.

But do they do it straight in machine code?
