The important words here are 'supposed to'. At high-school, and even at Uni now, some computers aren't set up correctly, for instance one box won't read my USB key, but the one next to it will. One's floppy drive can't be mounted because of insufficient persmissions, one has a mouse with a broken scroll wheel, etc, etc...
(Note, they all have the same hardware, and are loaded with the same disk image.)
We sometimes have reasons to keep using certain computers.:P
For some people, vi is more useable than notepad (I'm one of them). If you know how to use it, then it's quicker to do the tasks in vi than notepad.
However learning it is another matter entirely. It's painful to learn (in the beginning). It doesn't suddenly make vi a dreadful program, because it's useful to those who can use it.

What sensible package manager isn't going to check for dependencies when removing packages? It makes it a damn sight more hazardous if it doesn't.
And I've yet to find an open source MEAL...
Umm... The source code for a meal would most likely be a recipe. Hence, there's a heck of a lot of open source meals around.
Give this guy your mod points, he deserves it.
Who would know any strippers?? They're *FEMALE* for crying out loud.
I take it you've never been to Oxford St in Sydney, eh?
... That would make it funnier.
Mitsune Konno is her full name, Kitsune is her nickname.
I s'pose you think Mutsumi's name is Mitsumi, then, eh?

Maybe he doesn't want his donkey anymore.
(Note to some of the American readers who don't know of the difference between 'ass' and 'arse': it's a joke. I don't care if you laugh.)

Sorry, but it'd be way too cheesy and formulaic. It'd make Episode One shine with originality. (*Shudders*)
