Consider this; not all "Universities and Schools" teach primarily Computer Science. There are plenty of students that don't want to use an operating system that is completely foreign to them and very removed from what they use at home. I recall when the G5 Powermacs came out, I was angry because the biggest lab, the one for our literature science and art students (versus Engineers) had gotten first dibs at the powermacs. This stuck me as ludicrous because the students were using these fantastic video editing work horses to write e-mail, write reports, and browse the web between classes. Another point I would like to make is that Universities often get technology donations by companies like Apple and and Dell. At my school, the Dells on the engineering network dual boot to redhat. (strangely enough, there are some sun boxes that run windows as well) Billions of taxpayer money? Do you have a real number for that? And do you have some cost improvement number for a education wide transition to Linux inclusive of the cost of sysadmins (and the cost of only being able to afford novice students as sysadmins)? Do you even care about the end-user experience (in this case, students)? Somewhere in your head, perhaps sitting under the gluttonous weight of empty zealotry, must be the notion that switching completely to Linux at a University with varied programs is completely infeasible. How does that switch affect business students, film and video students, music students? Computers are utilities that have become very useful for nearly everyone in some way. Linux is not useful in those same ways. It would just be idiotic for a business student to go into a job interview and not be able to claim being proficient at Microsoft Office.
There are a generous mix of all races in University of Michigan computer science courses. Unfortunately, it's still relatively gender uniform. Regardless, the last time I checked, we have a decent program and recruiters from the leaders in IT are here often.
A bigger issue is at play here and the number of 'black guys' in your classes is a phenomenon related to admissions policy and society at large.
And for the record, African Americans aren't the only minorities. They are one of two major 'under-represented' minorities. It would also be socially equitable to get more latino students into computer science. On the topic of minorities, when looking at seats, there are plenty of groups that literally 'under-repesented' but due to extenuating circumstances are not considered so. But I wouldn't consider this a top priority issue (in comparison). We keep forgetting that Asian students are, often enough, (dramatic pause) American as well! And not all Asian-Americans are in socio-economic positions conducive to attending higher-level education. Still, that's for another day.
An industrial engineer is not an industrial designer. An industrial engineer studies optimization, systems, stochastic processes, manufacturing strategies, etc. Industrial designers are the ones you guys are minimalizing.

So I guess the danger is still there folks:|
Honestly, industrial and mechanical engineering are the only engineering majors that are remotely related to the historical definition of the field. Easy on the hubris, ladies.
Subvocalize this phoenetically. Dok-tur Wu Saugk Hwahng. The 'h' sound consonant is actually a part of the surname "Hwang" but the it is not a part of the Wu portion of his first name.
It's not really rational to misread something then exclaim that anyone is kidding you. If anyone, it's your dyslexic inner adolescent that is kidding you.
They also build Samsung and LG products. Besides, I'm sure not everything your that your country builds is top-shelf. Unless you're Swedish, in which case, it might actually be the top shelf.
You kids will cry about anything. You'd think this was super cool if it was 3 college kids and a self-employed high school drop-out tooling this in some wisconsin basement.
I prefer none without the e, thank you.
Both of your statements were addressed in replies to you by Anonymous Cowards. I hope that answers your question.
Replace "Koreans" with any other modern country, and see if the same statement doesn't fit. Also, keylogging isn't a Windows-only problem.
Despite spikes in complexity, the amount of time it takes to decrypt even the newest encryption methods is relatively trivial, so what's the point of encryption for anyone on the planet?
The Earthlings are mostly made of carbon, so they would burn pretty quickly -- or they will once the sun starts to fizzle out and completely engulf the Earth... so what's the point to being alive?
a) it's also eaten by older generations because it is a very tender meat and a good source of protein that tastes good. only one kind of dog is consumed (dunggae - shit dog) and it is not a domestic breed. pet ownership is very prevalent in korea.
b) if Americans were to clone pigs, no one would mention chitterlings.
c) eating dogs isn't unethical, beating them to get adrenaline pumping is.
reading is fundamental.
the favored pet in korea is the toy dog. in fact, if you look in the streets of any major city you see far more people walking their dogs than you would on any neighborhood. korea loves their pets.
Maybe the meta moderators that attended junior college were more attracted to Zaphod's joke than yours. You must've gotten the moderators that you serve at McDonalds.
korean youth play LAN games often because it is a fun and positive past time and because it is widely available at places called pc bang. (pronounced bahng) It is a networked room filled with computers with preinstalled games and software that you pay for hourly or get memberships (like a place in Detroit I used to patron called Alphabase). Because of the abundance of games, it is a little more than a CyberCafe, although many PC bangs smell pretty badly like cigarette smoke.
You are far less funny than you think you are. Vulgar + cultural ignorance != funny.

Also, neither the North nor the South parts of Korea are communists.
What does this have to do with the progression of the state?
Liquid has the letter U in it.
MSN is prevalent in Asia. Not all Asians speak Korean, by the way.
I have a differentiation scheme, we are just "The", not "The The". If "The" is taken, we will simply name ourselves "Teh"
I suppose it is a great time to agree to sign with Warner; wait until you start searching for my band, 'The'.

not a chance in the world. 50% of mine are now disabled :/
This isn't important enough to be so angry about.

you had a tourist's visit. i had a local's visit. very different.
IMHO go to korea and learn something about what you're posting about. If that's too hard, sit on your hands.

No, Korea is chock full of kim chi.
