The Chi Rho was the symbol that Constantine the Great had painted on the shields of his legions before the battle of Milvian Bridge; this act signalled his and the Roman Empire's conversion to Christianity.

I installed Ubuntu on my Gateway-branded Acer Apsire 1 Netbook and its like they built the thing for Ubuntu. Everything works out of the box, even the wifi. Even the sleep mode stuff appears to work correctly. The only drawback to this is the hardware, this particular Acer didn't come with a bluetooth chip. Again, this is a hardware thing, once I got a bluetooth dongle placed on the USB bus I had everything I wanted. So I busted the bluetooth chip loose from its form and soldered it directly on the netbook's usb bus, now its a complete rig.
First you'll need to deal with all the rotten buroughs and elitist neiborhoods in the first world. I don't think simply cutting off the head of the snake is sufficient here.
If you're a spam cannon you're not using Office to blast those emails, if you have half a brain. A simple spam mill is using a linux MTA and a perl script connected to a MySQL db filled with culled email lists. This will have not effect on spam. I seriously doubt that's the intent with this stupid limitation.
Nope, I have a state of the art rig with an i7 quad core processor and plenty o ram + 1.5Mbs bandwidth connection. Its not me, its the protocol. Unless everyone I talk to has a shitty setup like your describing.
Skype alone isn't worth the time developers seem to be spending on it, so I avoid it where possible. The quality is so bad, I can't understand anything the other party is saying. I'm not dropping my torrent streams though.
You didn't follow up with a "nya nya nyaa". In any case, the opposition for these "alternative plans is from both sides of the aisle, which is why I said what I said.
Frank? As in Barney Frank? The man who pretty much SINGLE HANDEDLY caused the real estate fiasco three years ago? You bet I disagree with him. Kucinich will get nothing pushed through that anyone will pay attention to, same with Sanders.
Your right, of course, I like what we have now better; all kinds of crap, give aways, and plain waste, payed for with credit and when the bill comes due the democraps and the republicons come to me with thier hands out. Yeah, that's a much better system.
Yep, he's the only guy that makes any sense. The two entrenched parties can only shoot holes in his ideas, but NEVER can come up with plans or their own. Of course, he won't get elected.
If this puts me to sleep I will use it. I find that for the opposing effect I need only go to a match and listen to footballers screaming "Oy, wats all dis den? Wats all dis?" at each other.
I walk past the group everyday, just today about noon in fact. They are camped right in front of the federal reserve building on main and market. They mostly try to bum cigarettes and money, and leave trash everywhere. Some protest.

Libreoffice with Samba and OfficeSIP would seem to be a viable alternative to me, am I wrong?

Yep. During that hour they realize you're not "the guy" and thank you politely as they show you the door. Rinse, repeat.
On that rig its windows 7.

So you're saying a Ron Paul presidency would promote bipartisan co-operation...
Where in my response did you read that?

Becuase corporations are in the business of providing YOU with what YOU, specifically, need. What kind of drugs are you on?
What a grand utopia he has planned for us.

Agreed. Perhaps embedded linux or something of that ilk.
Next Ballmer will lob an "Ice Cream Sandwich? The name alone a reason to buy a Windows phone instead."

I hear Muzac is paying handsomly for license rights.
The term "hacker" was coined long before computers and had nothing to do with sabotage or bypassing computer security.
Indeed. Unfortunately, the way language works, the popular usage gets dibs. See Oxford's and how they update it every year.

The iFans are tackling the opposition, and the crowd goes wild!
OpenJDK is buggy and isn't going to replace Sun's impl until Oracle kills it.
