Thank Bryan Clark and Seth Nickell, two of Red Hat's interaction designers. They decided to make the switch, to allow for more Fitts' Law-compliant applet-clicking.
Here's a suggestion about apt-get and upgrading between FCs: Don't. It's not supported. When things break, you have nobody to complain to other than whoever maintains your apt packages. If you want to upgrade in the safest way possible, boot from the first CD and upgrade via the installer (Anaconda).
My Recon (the Recon Flash is just mine with a light on the back) can fit a lot of crap in it, but has compression straps so that when it's almost empty (which is the norm for me) still small. The straps are great, and make it almost enjoyable to drag around for hours full of lead.
It has a laptop sleeve, water bottle holders, waist and chest straps (not that I use them), a pouch on the back that's great for, say, a hoodie or sweater, and a fucking huge zipper on the main pocket.
I have a Fedora devel box and a Debian unstable/experimental box, and they behave identically to each other most ways you describe in your one-post "journal". Their ls behaviour is different, which is odd, but I don't care enough to check who patched it.
Fedora:
# pwd /tmp/fedora
# touch A B a b; ls
a A b B
# ln -s/usr/local mylink; cd mylink; cd..; pwd /tmp/fedora
# mkdir foo.a foo.b; cd foo*; pwd /tmp/fedora/foo.a
Debian:
# pwd /tmp/debian
# touch A B a b; ls
A B a b
# ln -s/usr/local mylink; cd mylink; cd..; pwd /tmp/debian
# mkdir foo.a foo.b; cd foo*; pwd /tmp/debian/foo.a
Cool, this "monitor" I just bought (Dell 2001FP if anyone cares) is actually a "Media Station" just like this one! Apparently all it takes to earn that status are multiple inputs (S-SUB, DVI-D, Composite, S-Video) and a couple USB ports. Check and check.
Oh shit, mine didn't come with a big hulking box with its own fan. Or a remote to turn it off. Did you see that the VCR buttons only work with LG VCRs? Watch me sob in the corner, for I have buyer's remorse.
A little bit. I don't like my displays having 6" borders on them. I don't like having all my ports in the back (how are you supposed to wall-mount it?). I don't like the piece-of-bent-metal stand they have; they could have included one with height adjustment.
I also don't like my displays attached to my computers, but that's what an iMac is...
Congress can only kill P2P companies. And even then, it's a maybe. How would they go about crushing BT? By putting the author in prison? And the hundreds of other BT hackers as well? By going after tracker sites in foreign countries?
The latter is their best chance... but something tells me Congress' goal of World Domination (TM) hasn't reached every single company with an Internet connection.

It's a song. Your family doesn't give a fuck about the money you bring in if you're not around enough to spend time with them.

er, sorry, i didn't mean to make that post sound angry - blame it on the Kaffeine ;)
Such a lie. FC3 has had KDE 3.3.0 for a good while now. kdelibs is at 3.3.1, even.
nVidia doesn't own all the IP in question, so it isn't theirs to give. :(

If games don't count as 'bells and whistles,' then I'm not sure what does. ;P
That sounds like more of an argument to get her on GMail ;)
Linux started out as an x86-only kernel. People cared enough to port it. If people care enough about Syllable, it too will be ported.
Not for very long.

Red Hat sells service contracts on top of 100% Free Software.
Microsoft sells snake oil.
Uh... Red Hat.
Wow, what fools wrote Coral's software? It caches the 503 error page. Talk about defeating the purpose... they totally fail it.

I work at Red Hat doing QA. You just made me smile ;)
Red Hat does indeed work on bugs for customers. If we didn't, what would we charge them for?
:)
That said, I do use Debian at home and not Red Hat. I love/hate both distros with approximate equality
That was supposed to be one of those mindless Funny mods. Now it's "Insighful" and you see why I don't try to be funny very often ;)
"Highest-quality counterfeit currency ever detected"
Is that anything like "America's greatest solved mysteries" ?I think you mean AAC, because AC3 is actually the standard DVD audio format...

Do you seriously think the law matters to individuals?
