Actually, most available statistics suggest that Apple's iPod has between 25% and 35% market penetration in the HDD-based portable audio player market.
There are some interesting surveys around that indicate that a lot of consumers identify their Creative, Rio, and Dell players as "iPods" -- which account for a lot of the claims that the "iPod" accounts for such an unrealistically large segment of the market:)
32-bit Flash works just fine on 64-bit gentoo. Install 32-bit Mozilla or Netscape binaries, and install the Flash plugin there. No need to switch machines, just switch browsers.
ATI Drivers: I'm afraid you're on your own here.
Sun Java 5 runs just fine on 64-bit gentoo, even if it is missing a browser plugin. Install blackdown-jre and your applets should run just fine.
this is rather like apple's patent on the itunes interface. problematic by itself, and depressing if it becomes a precedent for future patent maneuvering.
well, 64-bit linux systems have been available for quite a while now. since the kernel and practically the entire application codebase are available to the public as source code, the transition has been quite painless for end-users. 32-bit emulation libraries have ensured that 32-bit binary programs work almost flawlessly.
I, for one, am in the camp that believes mobile phones should pack a whole lot of features into a small package. I like having a audio/text communications, a camera, J2ME virtual machine, and audio/video playback in the same device.
but it'll be a cold day in hell before I rely on Windows to deliver those things.
I don't understand why this is such a big deal. weblogs, by their very nature, are one-sided. an individual (or tightly-knit group) decides what posts to make, the topics for discussion, and the scope of comments that are tolerated. weblog readers know to expect an information oligarchy; is it such a surprise that weblogs associated with corporations would be so different?
we each regenerate in a cybernetic alcove for 3 hours a day. the rest is spent working. collectively, you might say our efficiency is through the roof!

in this case you can just click View -> Aspect Ratio in Totem and select the right entry.
well, that changes everything!
But from the number of people I've heard are downloading it, it seems pretty popular -- I wonder if the MPAA is watching them...
Well, Opera's tabbed interface was copied from Windows 95 itself ... which ganked it from OS/2 v3 -- the original tabbed interface.
Let me know when Opera has something in the same league as XUL and we'll talk about innovation.
Opera is always going to be a fringe browser.
I use the "light" slashdot layout, you insensitive clod!
it doesn't really matter for a browser like opera; it's pretty much always going to be in the 1% category.

and i'd think eliminating drug patents is a much higher priority than software patents.
That is why we have trademarks. It is a dangerous precedent for design elements to be patentable.
actually, I'm referring to their dubious patent on the iTunes software interface. and no, I don't require your explanation of design patents. they are harmful, and must be neutralized.

this fellow does it pretty fast
perhaps the reason there are so many models of phones on the market is because people want different things!

fin
now, what about those video codec products that are full of GPL'ed code?

well, at least we have this
A+
boy, you must be the life of the party!
