Last time I checked Windows came on one CD and many Linux distros require multiple CDs to install. Not to mention the fact that DVDs and hard disks store, read, and write data just a tad bit differently from each other.
As much as I personally dislike Redhat's distro (we all know Debian is The One True Distribution =P), I think Redhat holds an important place into open source world. The only way I would equate them to Microsoft is that they are the most business oriented distro, which is a good thing, and they have made many great contribution towards to acceptance of Linux in big business (many of these stemming from their relationship with Amazon and one of the best Linux migration sucess stories yet).
I really don't see how Redhat's attitude and dominance can be equated to Microsoft's. Somebody has to be number one, and Redhat's dominance is of a far smaller margin that Microsoft's. Microsoft is closed source, Redhat is not. Period, end of story.
If any distro approaches MS style arrogance, it's United Linux.
Gee, I really needed to see that story linked to one more time! Almost every news site I read regulary has posted about that study over the past week or so. Is it really that astounding or interesting? Let it rest, people.
Instead of paying 45 bucks a month for 60-70 channels of crap, I would rather spend that same 45 for fewer channels that I personally select (Comedy Central, Sci-Fi, Cartoon Network, TechTV, etc.) but with no ads. Your cable bill would be determined by how many channels you wanted and a set rate per channel. This would seem like the best solution to me because I don't pay for crap I don't want, and don't have to watch Country Music compilation commericals during Adult Swim.
Ha, if I had known that, I could have switched from Opera already! I truly love that browser, but I would always prefer to use a free software solution instead of a proprietary one.
Common sense would seem to dictate that 3 separate links reffering to 3 separate games would each correspond to one of the games. Furthermore, when your mouse hovers over a link, you can see the full URL in your browsers status bar. If you can add 2 + 2, you should be able to get a good idea of where a given link points. This really is a silly thing to whine(X) about.

"could herald the rise of Ogg Vorbis compatible MP3 players."
Wouldn't that make them Ogg Vorbis players?
Oh my God, it's Justin Ermac! Hey man, I love all your AMV's, they're by far the best stuff out there. Keep up the good work!

Just imagine if your bionic eyes get hacked and you spend 24/7 looking a banner ad burned into your silicon retina.
I'm still running on 512k of RAM, no one will ever need more than that.
