As you mentioned, Machinae Supremacy offer over 25 tracks in high bitrate Ogg & MP3 formats from their website (all of which are IMHO, excellent and of their own unique sound). What is more significant, however is that they take active part on the forums and the website, making a tight community of fans. Maybe if more bands used the internet as a means to interact with the listeners, and promote their activities, people would start to discover alternative genres and bands instead of downloading the latest Top-10 hits on P2P services such as Kazaa.
With all that has been said on the issue of GUI's on Linux, its great to see consistently improved releases across the board. Ximian 2 looks great, and the closely tied integration of OpenOffice is the kind of thing that will probably be appealing to those looking to roll Linux out to corporate desktops. Seems to be the 1.0 branch though, which is a shame since there are a lot of useful enhancements in the 1.1 series.
I'm currently getting 56kB/s down and 16.2kB/s up, and the transfer has hovered around these levels since the beginning (been going for a while now).
I'm not using the most recent bittorrent though, instead a slightly older version and this may be helping my speed a bit.
(Line is 512/256, so the speeds are good)
In the projects I have attempted during the course of my education (UK) it has been required to produce full documentation of the solution, including all the processes along the way, with similar steps to those you describe.
Identifying the problem
Analysing how it can be solved
Designing the solution
Implementing the solution (including related documentation)
Evaluation of the solution
This is considered normal throughout computing at this (post-16) level, so maybe these traits will start emerging in future projects. Computing seems to be much better understood now as a discipline than in previous times, and I know I find it much easier to do things when following these rough steps on a project, instead of jumping straight into code.
Why there are so many screenshots about ...

"Longhorn" Alpha Preview

· Score: 2, Informative
This abundance of screenshots and reviews is due to the actual ISO being available at various "windows beta" sources on the internet. More information on this is available here.
'To get word processing, for example, users click on "Borcense," a picture of 16th century writer Francisco Sanchez de las Brozas; for the Internet, click on "Galeon," a crane that lives in the oak meadows and cereal plains of the region'
trying to spread the localized changes thin then..
the follow up to counter strike is Counter-Strike: Condition Zero

seems valve are pretty much the driving force for the next version of counter-strike
agreed, but the theme of this article seems to be that opening games for mod development is a great bonus, which is surely something to encourage, seeing as it lets people (us?) get more playtime out of the same games.
cs became popular, IMHO, because it let people download the mod for free and use a game that was already vastly popular, in a completely different way.
seems not, the article talks about the source code enabling people to 'hack' their own mods. Nothing is mentioned of the disadvantage, as you state, of being able to see the code whilst developing cheat hacks (and conversely, how multiple developers working on open projects have developed anti-cheat software that actively combats these cheats)
The article suggests that many people are saying pagerank is working badly because they have lost their previous power to affect search results.
Overall, the pagerank seems to have improved in this latest incarnation (IMHO)

if you read the post more carefully, you would see that the machine cant even reach the bios. Might make installing something else a bit hard ..
