Napoleon was from Corsica and and Stalin from Georgia and Hitler from Austria and Bush is from Texas, But the will never represent the people from where they come, they are all the some kind of evil.
Well, see SCO is only successful in the US with their FUD. In Germany they are forbidden to their FUD under law. This whole issue is brought up in the corrupt US law and media system only.
Also France did not invade Iraq. They did not fought two deadly wars against a much smaller populaion of 20 millions. They did not made 150000 bombing raids during 12 years of sanctions. They did not saw aside when ten thousands of Iraqi childs, woman and man died due they had no food or medication. All this was only for the reason that the big fat US Forces of a people of 250 million could maybe fight down a 20 million people for a dumb ass in chief and Haliburton...and is still unable.
You moron - don't blame my french brothers in arms. Be aware!

Despite this guys at Forbes seem not to have any clue at all about it, you are very right in your sence! We seem to have here with the Free and Open Source community something very new in a very cutting edge technology.:-).
But the most important seems to be that there is no obviously way to get this OSS thing assimilated/corrupted by the current means. That is the real issue that should drive Bill Gates and Forbes guys cracy.
You may come on IBM, but I do not really think they can control the OSS/GNU/Linux thing at all. So cause they are smart, they decided to join it for no better clue yet.
But what can all the old companies really do to take control about the issue itself right at the moment (perhaps despite changing the rules of the society with TCPA or DCMA like stuff) - nothing, they can not get control on it. It will not hold on one Free an Open Source programmer if IBM will leave spending money in GNU/Linux development - all this smart guys will continue to programm in their Networks like Debian to work on.
>>>How do you explain the number of countries that consider themselves to support us in the war in Iraq? The war in Afganistan?
We are more wondering were the US is gone as we are standing in Afghanistan and somewhere else in the War On Terror? The whole world knows that AL KAIDA is feeded with Saudi and Kathar (!!!where you HQ's are !!!) money and hiding in the Pakistani tribal area. Why you are not going after them were they are?
Here are the thanks from your administration for being brothers in arms in Afghanistan and somewhere else:

Nuclear energy is not safeable to handle by human beings at all! This is cause we make always errors and especially scientists can not really modelling the reality. There is always an unclear area scientiest are unable to handle in the current models and therefor denied in the usual models and theories.
Thus we saw Tschernobyl here in Europe or other incidents all over. I should have happen not in 60000000 years statistically following the scientific models. Don't tell me there were some small errors by human beings - engineers always tell us when something fails! This are errors of the system not included in your models - with other words they are systematically faults of our thinking about nature.
A more second thing is our absolutaly neither means in dealing with nuclear incidents all over the world. Do you have any means to clean a civilised area contamined with isotops for the nex 30000 years? Do you have any imaging about what cost this will be for the humans and what a whast of human work of centuries?
For God sake - I hope the Fusion reactor will not come to Europe at all for security reasons!
For the politicial assault in the teaser of the article against France - here we go:
There is not much difference between 'Old Europe' and the US till the end 199x. And for am I was born in Eastern Germany behind the wall there were a lot of reason to thank the US for standing and thus save whole Europe (otherwise there had been no hold for the russian divisions at all).
But since the neoconservative Bush junta has taken over the power in the US all our picture of you has changed as dramatically as it could. Maybe we are driven apart before, but maybe all Europeans loved Clinton too much to see it. As where we stand now for me I can say: I see really two USA and they are as different as they could be. It's like you are a other land after the change from Clinton to Bush.
As where we now stand I would suggest you in the US to read 'After the Empire: The Breakdown of the American Order' by Emmanuel Todd - despite it will hurt you should get a lot of truth from it. One of the main conclusions in this book is the change of the habbit of the US empire after the beginning of the 1990's from a good saving empire to a aggressive imperalistic empire.
Here are some main differences between the US and Old Europe as good as I get it together. Hopefully we do not see here a other clash of civilisation Huntington may have left in his book.
1) We do not believe that your President has been legitimated in a fair democratic election at all. (In no land in Europe this whould be able to happen - to have diffences in voting machines between 2-10% - and not count all votes via hand or arrange a new ellection.)
2) Dead Penalty is not human and is showing a low state of civilisation.
3) The agenda of Kyoto has to be ratified by the US as the biggest destroyer of our enviroment.
4) The international curt in the Haag is the only authority for war crimes. Nobody here is seeing where you will have the right to think you would be out of this!
5) You have no right to begin assault wars without legitimation of the UN security counsal - there will be no world order without the rule of law.
6) There is also a big thinking of standing out of the law as empire. You have no right to deal like you do in Guantanamo! This is the tradition of Stalin and Hitler.
So we see a fall of democracity in the US swapped against nationalism.
For God sake - I hope the Fusion reactor will not come to Europe at all for security reasons!

I think the reviewer of the Sun Java Desktop is overpointing something. Of course there are some bugs, but regarding Suns always short developing resources the outcome looks quite better than it was to espect.
The other point of the critics from the reviewer goes on the 'small' scale of applications. Well there are no KDE application support in. Yes this is a point, but this is a desktop designed for the enterprise. You do not need to burn CD's on the most enterprise desktops. All of this seems to be in there, e.g. S/OOffice, Ximian Evolution, Mozilla. And it is always a good reason to limit the focus of an enterprise desktop on the usual applications.
>>> Even Microsoft can't check the way everything works with everything.
Yeap, because they are standing in there self-made mess created for there grid! Due they mess all up for ridiculos reasons like to sweep out competitors or for the fast buck!
>>>Microsoft has released service packs that kill peoples applications...
Yeap - even their own programmers can't view a whole applications code (not to mention all the interactions between the crap), so they can not be able to take care when trying to fix it.

Well see, you're not a geek, thats all. If you would be, you would have not the fastest CPU but maybe some interesting pieces like SCSI.
In other words: SCSI is like *nix, it is a very intelligent, fast and most reliable technology to be running in real production systems or on geek systems (all with sometimes lower CPUs). On the other hand you have IDE, which seems to be like Windows. It is not really an interessting, fast or reliable technology, and therefore to be found on the Desktop.
Sites running on Apache are most probably GNU/Linux or *nix servers and sites running IIS are M$ Windows boxes. So what they found is only the normal distribution of Web servers running in production on the Web.
But I do not really buy that GNU/Linux servers are as equal being cracked as M$ boxes as I'm working in a data center and mostly see the opposite of this.
