Your statement is completely wrong my friend. The free drivers are still available but software locked to 14.4kbps. If you want the full drivers you don't have to pay $40 like you said. The full drivers are $14.95.

I never like Redhat Linux anyway. After using Slack for so long, I tried playing around with Redhat 7.3 thru 9. It just didn't feel right to me. Too much eye candy and wizards. I guess I am a real techy but I love my Slackware;)
This procludes to probably 1% of Windows users. Sure the/. crowd does have several layers of defenses, but what about the other 98% of Windows users that do not even know what a firewall is and think that AOL is the Internet
I would agree with Billy if he was only talking about server software, but he's not.
I have to agree. There is no bias at Fox News. You just think you see it since its been decades you people have been forced to watch the likes of Dan Rather and Tom Brokaw. When something is different, you instantly think its bias.
I know I'll get troll for this but it has to be said.
Maybe they are scared of Microsoft? We already know MS wants to (or has) build a search engine clone of Google. Maybe google doesn't want to confront MS on this turf so they go with the age old adage, "If you can't beat 'em, join 'em."
Imagine if that put all that money down on an Intel/Athlon cluster. They could have got at least double performance. But then again it wasn't their money in the first place, it was probably grant money or taxpayer funded NSF.
In a perfect world, I don't see a problem with it. But using the *n* word is especially not appropriate and frankly in no way compares to what was said in the blog.
Of course there is slander, but when the guy used that same name for himself, THEN gets pissed because another person says the same thing in a blog. I'd say he would have a case if it was in a newspaper or TV, but a blog? C'mon.. get real.
1. Trash 7 of the computers (the ones you don't really use but keep around for the geek factor). Replace with a nice little external 300 gig Firewire or USB2.0 drive. You can take it with you wherever you go.
2. With 8 computers on your LAN, you definitely need to get out and get some. Get a girlfriend!
What happened to the sunstorm from last week? space.com said it was a level 3 (out of 5) and we'd experience 12-18 hours of sporadic communication problems.
Having been a user of both CrossOver Office and CrossOver Plugin for quite some time now, these 2 products IMHO are must haves if you Linux guys/gals do any kind of Windows/Linux.
In my case, Office comes in handy when other researchers send me Excel spreadsheets with macros. OOO and StarOffice simple do not support Excel macros. The other case is for PeopleSoft. PeopleSoft uses the Microshaft java VM and simple will not work correctly with Sun's java and other browsers. Office offers me a choice to install IE 6. In this case, I don't have to dual boot Windows or have an open VMware windows install to use our PeopleSoft programs
Plugin comes in handy for personal surfing use by letting me see (on the web) information I can't see because its either in a plugin that is not Linux supported or will never be supported in Linux, i.e. Quicktime.
And yes you can setup mplayer to play Quicktime/ASF streams, but I simply don't have the time and energy. Install the Plugin package, install Quicktime program, bingo, I see videos.
I am getting really tired of the Mac zealots out there. "Mac rules!" "iPods rock!" The simple fact is that your stuck with proprietary hardware and you paid 3 times the price. The only thing you rule at is you took it without vaseline.
Is the the pr0n website or the real whitehouse website? I am afraid to goto the link because I am at work and don't want a zillion scantly clad popups ruining my day.

If you think that pumpkin is scary, you should see this one.
And its still too slow.

Just as long as they don't turn into a Were-cart.

I thought all this time opinions were like a**holes, everybody has one. Now people are suing over them? Jeez.. What has this country come too?

Someone better not let the proverbial fart out of the bag around these guys.

If its already in you, then you ate it.
1. Everybody dies. Its a fact of life.
2. Because of the chemicals we digest daily. You never heard of all this stuff 50 or 100 years ago.
Sounds like it to me.

Oh, IMHO some UT Austin grad probably works for MS now and said "oh lets name it after my almater". I would have said, "Ok, lets name it after Bevo."
Microsoft Bevo Release Candidate 1
Gosh, it just sounds more appropriate.

Its a commercial version of WINE. Very similar to WineX (the gaming version of WINE).

Ditto.
Thanks.
