The only reason left to use windows is gaming. And even that is becoming less and less of a reason...
In fact that is the only reason I have a Windows box. And with the games of today just serving as eye-candy (Doom 3)or treating paying customers like criminals (Half-Life 2), my Windows box mostly collects dust. Long live Mega-TF!!
I find The Inquirer to be humorously ironic (bordering on hypocritical) since they bash Microsoft and even refer to them as "The Vole", yet they use IIS/ASP.Net. Their Linux/FOSS articles are sparse at best, which obviously means they know squat about the subject.
It brings up another interesting misperception that we see a lot when we do this comparative analysis between Unix and Linux, and often we hear customers and folks in the marketplace talk about -- that Linux is Unix.
Straight from the belly of the beast. Doesn't get any better than that. So long SCO... Even your "loanshark" doesn't believe your lies.
Just because they may cost more doesn't mean they'll be worth more (as far as business value)... Don't sellers usually lower prices to get rid of inventory that doesn't sell well?
The funny thing is that outlandish, shortsighted comments coming from Redmond such as this one still make news stories. Must be a slow day at TechWorld.
If I remember my computer history, wasn't Microsoft the alternative to the IBM monoculture? Now that IBM has embraced FOSS, they're the alternative to the Microsoft monoculture...
However, it takes quite a bit of persistance and even more will-power:
Drink lots of water.
That's it. It took about two weeks to beat the headaches, irritability, and lack of energy, but it's worth it. I have plenty of energy now, my complexion is better, and am able to concentrate much better. Plus I save quite a bit on drinks.

Yea, but that kinda makes the whole proposition of building communities on Mars a stinky one. (I'm here all night, promise!)

You've got mail, ay?
Is it any coincidence that all those companies (except maybe Apple and Google) detest FOSS and can't find any better way to compete with it?
And *maybe* Half-Life 2.
Real geeks don't need instructions...

OT I know, but couldn't resist.
Jack Valenti just swalled a half a bottle of Pepto Bismol...
This does not bode well for those of us who just paid top dollar for the last generation of AGP cards.
But it does bode well for those of us who want cheaper AGP Radeons.

Now it's "opened source".

Maybe what it really means is Denial of Settlement.
Not only that, but with each interview, he sounds more and more like a shyster used car salesman. Just an observation.
It's a start...
well if your anus was as big as Uranus, you probably would discover something orbiting it.
especially from a StudMuffin.
I'm reporting you to PETA!! Oh wait, you mean computer worms...
FWIW, they make great (low cost)shotgun targets, coasters, and most people like getting them less than fruit cakes...
I thought Sharman Networks was incorporated in Australia. How can they use a foreign law like that?
Now may be the time to update your illegal mp3 file MD5 hash sums.
Done.
