That gives us about 2 yrs to get linux ready to take over. Can we? Because if not, it will be vary bad. This is our chance. Once people are tied into palladium, they're stuck.
Actually there is no reason for M$ to play the copyright game. In 2050 nobody is going to want DOS 1.0. heck nobody in 1983 wanted it. (When did 2 come out?) Plus, you can get it free if you wanted to. I think M$ even gives it out. I know you can get win 1.0 for free and i want to say M$ allows it.
Yes. The Boondock Saints is the best movie ever. I just hope the sequal is as good. They aren't getting many peole to come back. I kow the FBI guy isn't which is a shame. He was a great charactor.
We are at war with Iraq. We have always been at war with Iraq. We have never been at war with Bin Ladin. Anything sayin otherwise must be a plot by the Terrorists.

just for the record most of those "innocents" taken off death row aren't innocent, but they've been on death row long enough (up to 20 yrs) that the state can't reconstruct enough evidance anymore.
E17 is backend stuff. the main new feature of E17 is the iconbar and it has been backported. The new backend stuff in E17 will be incredible, and make E even cooler, imo. Also, it better be as configurable as E16 since a lot of the fluff may be unnecessary for me.
Btw, all you KDE/GNOME people complaining about a lack of aqua look and feel themes should check E. You can even make the iconbar function like a dock. Except E has more features than Aqua.
if all you use your computer for is browsing the web, sending emails, and you want to play ANY game that comes out - linux isn't for you. Linus is faster, more stable, prettier, and easier to use.
OS if you are never going to run any sort of server off of it Did you learn windows. I think so since it's not instinct. Plus linux is a better disktop.
All I have to do is double click a link to get my game to work.... what do YOU have to do? =/ Assuming it runs under linux, all i have to do to install it is emerge game or wine setup.exe. I could do it w/ a doubleclick, but i prefer the CLI. To run it all i have to do is type game. Or doubleclick an icon. Or select it from a menu. Just like you (except for the cli OPTION. Granted there are fewer games for linux, but i'm not much of a gamer anyway.
Please don't take any offense in my post, i'ts just how I feel. For instance - right now on my quicklaunch bar I have DiabloII, Unreal2, Unreal2003, kazaa, Serious Sam, RTCW, Gamespy, Nero, Quake3, GTA3, Sim City 4, Splinter Cell, Neverwinter Nights, and many more. If i used my iconbar, i could hav the same one click access. however, i either used system-wide mouse gestures, the CLI or the menu. Once again, preferance.
I respondes to your post as such as you obviously intended it as a flame. Linux is not right for you. Since you use your PC for games Windows/DirectX is proboboly for you. However for non-gamers linux is a viable option. Just keepp that in mind. Also, your points of distase with linux are completely unfouinded and show your ignorance. please keep complaints to issues that actually exist.
wrong. percieved security and freedom tend to be, but security doesn't always conflict. do you think the terrorists would have been able to hijack those planes if people were allowed to carry guns on planes?
Of course, the GOVERNEMNT'S freedom does tend to be dependant on reduced freedom, but that's a whole different problem.
Hasn't apple said (or albut said) they'd be switching to ibm chips. btw, how will those fair in laptopshes. Should i wait to pick up a tibook until they use ibm 970s or are the G4s gonna be easier on the battery?
dude, i ran this and it's kinda cool. You can really see the evoultion up to win 3.1. Especially in the apps, which are just primitive versions of the win 3.1 apps. Of course it does suck to get my ass kicked repeatedly by reversi form win 1.0
but copy text from IE into word and you have to spend 15 mins making it match the rest of your docs or copy it to notepad first. That's not a prob in X11:)
Slashdot Mirror
a guy i know who lived in Japan said if you go to the right places on a weekend night you can find $300-$500 that drunks drop while getting into cabs.

Yes, we need Buisness 3.1
This shouldn't confuse peiople at all when i install X on their macs so they can use oo.org and abiword.

What would you honestly estimate the percentage of comptuer users who overclock their CPU? I'd guess well below 0.1%.
Yea, but they buy a lot more chips than the average user.
Hasn't apple said (or albut said) they'd be switching to ibm chips. btw, how will those fair in laptopshes. Should i wait to pick up a tibook until they use ibm 970s or are the G4s gonna be easier on the battery?
the fastest procs in their class, period
Kinda like the kia sportage being the best (only) car in it's class.
remember BeOS
No.
8.6 gigs over the internet. I have 2x that much porn in a Kazaa queue. (I think they meant per second)
Not true! Restraining orders are just a way of saying "I Love You"

win 2k still costs more than XP Pro.
I bought a Rio 500. The firmware immediatly corrupted, rendering the device useless. Sonicblue's tools failed.
I'm happy w/ my Nomad IIC now.
I didn't realize any record labels were located in texas.
It already is one, a beowulf cluseer would be just the same but bigger. Move along.
I'd be down w/ that even if she wasn't a contotionist

gentoo does it also.
her bike
Is she hot? If so what's her phone number?
