Others have already told replied to you, telling you what you're saying about Gnome/KDE is not quite true.
Let me be the one telling you, that what saying about windows is not quite true either. I can only comment about Windows 2000, but I guess most is true for 95, 98, ME and XP as well.
>Fonts are readable and well aligned inside widgets
Fonts are readable, but butt-ugly because they lack anti-aliasing. With anti-aliasing turned on in win2000, my eyes get tired real quick (dunno why).
On win2000, on a high res screen, the fonts get really small. So you set the system font to 'large', suddenly a lot of dialogs are too small to hold the text.
> Widgets, colors, fonts, decorations, etc. all look the "same", without major discrepancies in style or form
Have you ever installed win2000 yourself? I just did, during the install (and the subsequent updates) I must have seen about half a dozen different progress bars (I lost count).
You know a *lot more* about unix/linux/freebsd (you mention ncurses) than my mom (she has trouble operating the new vcr).
You used the far superior freebsd install and apparently needed the help from the freebsd-questions list, while my mom managed to install linux all by herself after I reassured her that she couldn't 'break' anything: next, next, next, next, wait, everything works.
To know why Japan surrendered to the US, you have to know the following things:
- How many Japanse soldier were situated in China: hundreds of thousends. - How many Russian divisions were about to engage the Japanse army in China: 3 - Was the *smallest* russian division bigger or smaller than the complete Japanese presence in China: Bigger - Didn't the Russian have far better equipment than the Japanese: Yes, the Russians had just fought a war against Germany, the Japanese had fought against peasants. - What would Russia have done after they would have annihilated the Japanese forces in China: Figure that one out for yourself.
And how would you explain the fact that at low utilization an 90nm processor is using a *lot* less power than at full throttle? AMD is crazy to implement this useless the cool-'n-quiet stuff, right?

The system is pretty responsive and snappy. I can only imagine how fast this system would be with an Athlon 1800+. There's no need (for me at least) to run XFCE instead of a full blown Desktop Environment.
If harddrives are advertised in megabytes, it stand to reason that you ask for a harddisk in megabytes. Just like you do not pull up to a gas station and ask them to fill up the tank with a certain number of megajoules.
So it's not the harddrive manufacturers that are wrong. You get 1 gigabyte harddisk space for every gigabyte advertised. When you're buying 1 gigabyte of memory you get 74 megabytes for free (because you actually get 1 gibibyte).

Well if you bought all that music legally

Dutch Pass iPod Tax
·
· Score: 1, Troll
you've spend more than 25.000 euros om music, the extra 200 euros won't matter all that much. Seems to me that the people who need 60 gb for 'their' music and whine about 200 euros, are a bunch of freeloaders.
That said I really hate those kinds of taxes (I live in the Netherlands). For every (DV/C)D+-R(W) I buy, I have to pay taxes that go directly to the BUMA/STEMRA (dutch RIAA equivalent) even if I never use those blancs for music. They are almost forcing me to download music from the internet to get my moneys worth.

I guess we can be fairly sure that IRAQ currently is not building a
nuke, or any other weapon of mass destruction.
I think you meant IRAN. Don't worry Bush made the same mistake.
"pre-production sample of MSI's Megabook S270. This is an ultra-portable notebook system with an AMD Sempron 3000+ CPU"
This ultra-portable has a much smaller battery (25Wh vs 50Wh), no wonder it gets half the battery life....
Shouldn't that be 'subjected', well what do I know, english is not my best language. Anyway, I'm pretty sure you were using way too many capitals.

Shipping costs from China to Europe for a pair of sneakers is far than $1

Strange.

Ahum
Ok, let's start here:
:)
It should be quadruple-boot
To know why Japan surrendered to the US, you have to know the following things:

- How many Russian divisions were about to engage the Japanse army in China: 3

- What would Russia have done after they would have annihilated the Japanese forces in China: Figure that one out for yourself.
From the funny article, first paragraph: "Built around a 64 bit PowerPC core,"
And how would you explain the fact that at low utilization an 90nm processor is using a *lot* less power than at full throttle? AMD is crazy to implement this useless the cool-'n-quiet stuff, right?
Because they are completely clueless.
Unknown core (Clawhammer / San Diego). Do they even know that the venice-core is a much 'cooler' cpu.
Unknown ambient temperature. Do they even know the temperature drop is relative to ambient temperature.
I have an Duron 800 with 256mb. I'm running:
- Fecora Core 3 with KDE
- Some multimedia extra's
- FireFox
- KDevelop

kilo = 10^3 = 1,000
mega = 10^6 = 1,000,000
giga = 10^9 = 1,000,000,000
kibi = 2^10 = 1,024
mebi = 2^20 = 1,048,576
gibi = 2^30 = 1,073,741,824
So it's not the harddrive manufacturers that are wrong. You get 1 gigabyte harddisk space for every gigabyte advertised. When you're buying 1 gigabyte of memory you get 74 megabytes for free (because you actually get 1 gibibyte).
wtf, can anybody explain. Is this considered 'normal' in the US?
It's called a follow-up:
"In October, you'll be able to choose between"
"is shipping the first 96-node desktop cluster. '"

But noone can force them to sell the DVD's with frence voice-over/subtitles....
A.L.I.C.E.: Do you think this would probably not eliminate all dupes, but should help mitigate the issue?
