I **used to** recomend them to my customers. No longer.. Bad move CA, you'll feel the backlash of this really dumb move you made. Once a traitor, always a traitor. There is no salvation, redemption or forgiveness for traitors.
Forgiveness is for those that are too weak to hold a grudge..
when I was a kid, no one had ever heard of ADD. So, they just beat the shit out of you endlessly. I made straight A's in my sleep, it was too easy. I despised school because it was so freaking boring. I wanted more than the pablum they were trying to feed me. I would ace the work and then sleep since there was nothing else to do back then. Then I would get in trouble for sleeping and get sent to the office for a whipping. That would set me off on a blue streak of bad behavior. Then I would get beat on when I got home for getting whipped at school. It was a never ending cycle of beatings. I finally told the world to get fucked and I just simply refused to participate in school or any other acitivies and withdrew into a world of electronics. I lived by the soldering iron. All I did was make things and fix things and take things apart. I never learned to interact with other people very well. At 43 I still don't much like being around other people.
Now I see that what was happening was that I had no control over my life and in a world of electronics I DID have control over things. I had the power to control and manipulate things in my world whereas in the outside world I was being manipulated and squashed into molds and forms that I didn't fit into.
People would go to jail today for what they did to me when I was a kid. And one last thing. I didn't beat my kids and they grew up normal.
1. I build my own stuff from scratch. 2. I do not use MS products. Period. 3. I use and sell Linux. More bang for your buck.
Windows, out of the box, does nothing but get you online so you can get infected and download warez and pr0n. Oh yeah, and mp3z... No word processor, no spreadsheet, no much of anything.
Linux comes with too many things to list.
Yeah, Linux has it's shortcomings but it's benefits FAR outweigh it's shortcomings.
I just can not justify paying for trouble. I had a guy today ask me to sell him a system and install a pirated copy of windows on it. I told him I don't do that, I don't have any copies of windows, and I wouldn't do that to someone that I like anyway.. I offered him Linux instead. He declined, I lost the sale. Life's tough..
I'm so tired of this. I hope to soon read that Daryl, finally looked into the abyss and saw the hopelessness of his position and put a gun in his mouth and did planet earth a favor.
Please Daryl, spare us the agony and do yourself in already!
I'm fscking sick off all the gdmf commercial sites that float up like turds that won't flush.
When I enter HP Laserjet IIIsi I get 400,000 freaking sites peddling toner and ink refills but I have to dig through dozens of pages of bullshit to find tech info like parts lists or diagrams.
I wish they would implement a new switch or two in search engines,

You won't get a penny of my money until you publish the ORIGINAL versions on DVD. I bought the original trilogy on VHS (VHS sucks btw) but at least it was unadulterated.
Us old timers don't like the bastardized versions.
Please sue me. I sell Linux. I have 50+ machines running Linux here at my home office. And I'm going to sell the hell of of Linux. Lots and lots of Linux. To every one, their grandma and their dog. If you want to take me on, contact me.
I don't think so. His wallet would need a wheel to keep if from dragging off his ass if it was full of $20's..
Also, the cops pull you over with that much money in small bills, you get a free ride to go explain it. They assume you are selling dope when you have a lot of small bills.
Microwave radiation won't affect RFID. They are too small. Try nuking some ants and see what happens.
Secondly, who is STUPID enough to ruin that much money?
Third, I suspect this is FAKE and if so, someone may be guilty of counterfiting. If they printed up fake bills to make this fake "news" report, the Treasury folks may be interested.
And lastely, Alex Jones is a FLAKE that is in serious need of MEDS..
Shouldn't be too hard, WP 8 didn't involve any sort of a GUI, it was a DOS based program.
I used to install it for people in the 80's but hated it because I just didn't know how to use it. I could install it but couldn't use it.
Well, I finally learned how to use it and found it to be an extremely powerful and useful word processor and to this day I still miss some of the features it had. I found it extremely useful to be able to delete columns of text rather than only being able to delete horizontally in serial fashion. And the macro features were exceptionally nice too. Man, after a few months of intensive screwing around, I had gotten quite good with WP..
I wish they would port it to Linux. I quit using WP in the early 90's but I would use it again if they could bring back the version 7 or version 8 program to run on Linux..
I forbid the presence of M$ products in my home and office. Unless they change this, I will not own one of these products. That goes for cell phones, beepers, automotive components, or any other devices that execute computer code.
I could care less what any device runs, as long as it's NOT M$..
a. No (or very poor) peripheral vision b. Headlights to burn the batteries down faster. Use LEDS. c. You're going to use MS to control a ROBOT?
Like imagine some punk hacking your robot and it murders you in your sleep. Asimov doesn't come into play here, this device is a non seintent device and incapable of self awareness. It's a motorized platform that executes instructions. Mixing MS with such a device is a recipe for disaster..
1. A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.
2. A robot must obey orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law.
3. A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law.
All those things are blue sky dreams in a non existent world. Reality is reality...
I've sub-contracted for the government before and I know what I'm talking about, I was working in offices right next to people of every walk of life, caliber and education level.
Fact, MORE government employees are former welfare recipients than are not.
Despite the fact that they have a high school education or a GED does not qualify them to install and maintain computer systems of any kind, much less Linux systems.
MOST of them know how to do the task they are assigned and nothing else. When the computers go do or cause problems, they call someone else to fix them.
Getting a job in a government position does NOT require a high level of education. Most positions require that you come from an underprivledged background and have at least a GED.
I've sub-contracted to various government agencies for over 25 years and am familiar with the people, procedures and requirements.
I'm not trolling or flamebaiting, I'm only relating what I've personally observed.
And one last thing, in defense of the little people at the bottom, they tend to be much smarter than the big shots at the top... It's the big shots that are the dumb asses, IE our prez. not knowing how to send email...

And if you think that's bad, think of all these PC's going into the landfills in a few years.
We need to recycle systems more.
I'm a disabled American and took it upon myself to do something about it.

Oh good, I'm in the clear! Wheh!
I usually stop at 3 pots a day myself.
Wait a minute, what's this? CUPS! CUPS!!
Shit! I thought they said POTS!
Damn rtfa stuff again...
Century 12 tap is a peer to peer monitor.
Big deal. They can drop em in anywhere they want and watch anything they want and you'll never know it.
Time to shit or git off the pot!

Could I have gotten so lucky as for SCO to have taken up my offer to sue me for selling and using Linux?
You won't get a penny of my money until you publish the ORIGINAL versions on DVD. I bought the original trilogy on VHS (VHS sucks btw) but at least it was unadulterated.
Us old timers don't like the bastardized versions.
It worked then, and that's what we want.
Please sue me.
I sell Linux.

Lots and lots of Linux. To every one, their grandma and their dog.

Ever held $1,000 in twenty dollar bills?
I don't think so. His wallet would need a wheel to keep if from dragging off his ass if it was full of $20's..
Also, the cops pull you over with that much money in small bills, you get a free ride to go explain it. They assume you are selling dope when you have a lot of small bills.

Not Linux in Asia! You KNOW they'll pirate it!
God, I can see it know, bootleg copies of Linux on every street corner for 99 cents a CD...
Oh the humanity of it!
I've got about 50 Compaq Deskpro 4000's that are begging for something to do.
Why not? Support your local electric company I say!
Oh shit! I just filled it all out THEN I came here and read this.
What do I do now? And who's that guy with sunglasses and talking into his sleeve??

First off, screw corbis. They suck and that's documented fact. Then, screw the DMCA..
Yes, screw the DMCA..
Now, on with business.
They had to do something to counter GWB's draft dodging stories eh?
The doo-doo will be hitting the fan this fall, count on it.
Also, count on Bush to pull a Bin-Laden out of the hat just before election.
