Sorry to inform you, but we here in America have had Red Bull for a long while now. Frankly, I think it's terrible. I would much rather go with a normal Mt. Dew, or better yet Jolt or Bawls. Over here, Red Bull is the preppy drink for newbz (at least here in my town.) Red Bull gives you fag, sorry, not wings. I think this was more a 'typical soda to keep energy level up' than actual 'energy drink' contest. Either way, Red Fusion wins. The communist soda shall crush all others.
What the _fuck_ are you talking about. Last time I checked Mircosoft doesnt and never has made hardware. Oh, and Intel and AMD are coming out with RISC processors, the same as the ones Apple has been using since the 80's. So, since Apple uses such terrible hardware, why is the Windows world switching over to it? Your an idiot.
Oh man, not again. Hasn't this been cleared up several times? RISC architecture. Runs cooler, less mhz needed. Shorter pipelines. It's very simple, the reason the Apple processors have a slower mhz number is because of the RISC architecture. Your awesome r0x0r Pentium is basically an overclocked 486. This is the reason they have to be 2ghz with a gigantic fan on them to get better performance. Heard about the new AMD chip? Guess what, it's RISC. It's going to run cooler. My G4 doesnt have a huge fan on it. The performance is the same. The new AMD chips and the new Intel chips are just like the G4 and SPARC chips, 64bit, RISC, and lower mhz.
I dont see why you say its dead. I have had tremendous success with it. All I have ever had with linux is trouble. From network cards to X. Now, granted that X is a little bitch most of the time, it was easier for me to set up in BSD. My network cards worked automatically in BSD, something they didnt do in Slackware, Red Hat, or Debian. My BSD box is notably faster than previous installs of linux that I have had running on it. I am highly pleased with it. So, if you want to babble on saying that it is dead just because that is what the average fucking idiot on slashdot says, go ahead. I would recommend trying it. Oh yeah, and lets not forget about OS X. I believe the prediction is 5 million plus OS X users by the end of the year. I hardly call that dead, unless your definition of dead is growing. Be intelligent, please.
I just got a gateway running NetBSD working with IPFILTER. Works great for me. I think the patent office can officially insert a penis in their ear and dance all night if they have a problem with it.
Duh fagz!!! Itz so closed that their kernel is open source. Open source doesnt meen 'open' lik j00 fagz may be teh thinkin, it meenz closed !!!1 YoU STUPAD MAC FAGZZ!!!!1 LOLOL0L.
Please, try to be intelligent next time.
Just wondering, but have you ever used OS X? I own a new iMac G4, and I can tell you one thing, OS X is completely different from any linux. Aqua is so far superior to KDE or Gnome, its almost a laughing matter. Not to say that KDE and Gnome are bad, they are still working on them. But, what they have tried to do over the years doesnt not even scratch the surface of what Apple has done in just a couple. OS X plain works. Always. Smoothly. It is essentially unix, but with the best GUI on the market. If you can sit down at an OS X machine and a linux machine and tell me that OS X is just the same as KDE and Gnome, I am sorry, but you are very wrong. All of my friends have are *nix hackers, and when I got my Mac, all of them said,"Wow." They all stated how greater Aqua was than KDE or Gnome. The KDE and Gnome teams are doing a great thing, trying to get usability of linux to the everyday computer user. Apple has just beat them to it in a short period of time. Anyone can use OS X, but your average day user cannot vi XF86Config and fix their settings. I have used both, and I pray KDE and Gnome continue to work on their products, they are doing a great service, but it is definately _not_ OS X.
Your breathing, and I wonder why. This will be moderated as a troll most likely. Sorry, but when I am jamming to Ave Maria (a Mozart song for you less cultured/. readers), I do not want to have to quit iTunes to run their installer. For instance, I am downloading Undying, it is a game that I have been wanting, if Carracho has to quit, that puts me back at the end of the 10 user queue when I sign back on. Downtime is bad, which is why unix rawkz. So, if you happen to like downtime, Windows is your number one a+ source for all of your computing needs. Now, moderate me!!
Just goes to show, Microsoft has no validity in the computing world. Any educated consumer will notice that when they say "resolves all security vulnerabilities in previous versions of Internet Explorer 5.", that this can not possibly be a legit claim. Dah well, bastards.
Oh, and speaking of OS clones, where did DOS come from? That's right, it was bought. Oh yes, and where did Windows come from? Oh that's right, Bill stole it from Apple. Boy, your post gets more intelligent every time I read it.
Your use of the term 'faggots' proves your validity, doesn't it. How can linux be dead when it is gaining market share? Maybe your definition of dying is not the same as mine, or Webster's. Just a question, how many times have you restarted in the past week? Month? I haven't restarted my linux box in one month and twelve days. I would never restart my iMac , but I must when I brink it to a friend's house, or a LAN party. Next time you have to restart because you installed something, or your machine hangs up when you are playing Counterstrike, let me know. I'm sure it will be within two days.

How ironic that you used the word 'constructive'. That is exactly what Legos are, means of constructing things out of small blocks. Were you beaten as a child, or do you not have any creativeness ?
Aha, funny man. I meant that the media / government says they are illegal. I know that transferring things that are not copyrighted is not illegal, but the media / government doesn't see it that way. Sorry, I shall have to emphasize my point better than 'it does seem', key word there being 'seem'.
Yes, it does seem that p2p networks are illegal, I wonder how these people got funding. I haven't heard yet of anything that google is doing with p2p networks, but the mighty gods they are, I'm sure they will roll out something very nice.
I think that Apple fits into anyone's lifestyle, just no one has given them a chance. It is kinda like jumping into a swimming pool when you know it is cold. You can either tip-toe in, or just suck it up and dive in. When you get in, its warm and nice, you just had to make the jump to find out.
That, or it is/.ed. I check up on/. around something like 25 times a day, when a new story comes up, I am usually there. Only seven people had replied comments to this story when I tried reading it. You can also notice how I said nothing about the actual mod itself, being as I hadnt't seen it, I only regarded mods in general. Now that I have seen it, it seems like a pretty cool mod. Someone posted something about a Han Solo Lego figure, that would be perfect. Props for originality.

Aesthetics are very important. I have a Mac because I love OS X. OS X has Aqua, quite possibly the best GUI ever, IMHO. Its unix, but pleasing to the eye. Also, Apple hardware is also very pleasing to look at. Case mods on PCs are something that shows how much you love your computer, as well as how much time you spend looking at it. A beige box isn't nice to look at for ten hours, but a black box, with a window kit with a Tux etching on it with a blue neon inside is. I have never heard of a mouse mod, though. Seems interesting, if the website wasn't/.ed already.
It seems to me that if Apple spreads the word about how well their Xserve performs, possibly doing more benchmark tests, they could take control of the small server market. Heck, they might even branch out to larger servers. Its Apple, anything could happen.
