Parent is not a troll. There's two huge red flags that popped up right at the beginning of TFS:
One, he's using Norton, which anybody knows is ripe for ridicule in this particular forum.
Two, as has and will be mentioned numerous times, Noscript, adblock, etc. make all this very academic (which, I know, is the point of Bennet's writings here, to explore concepts in theory).
So while I'm sure his opinion is interesting to whatever eggheads here like to digest his cromulent but otherwise semantic ramblings, the rest of us will do pretty much what parent has done and say "who gives a fuck?"
Whoa, bitter much? If you'd paid any attention to any of the commentary surrounding Portal, they've made it quite clear that Portal is going to be something they're planning on developing further, but due to the nature of the game and their penchant for certain amounts of quality control, they want to do it right, not just rush out a sequel or DLC for a quick cash in.
Please, don't mod parent troll. Instead, realize that a slahsdot birther is an extremely rare occurrence, and should be nurtured appropriately lest this most endangered of species disappear forever.
I hope this does not offend you, but there are people who do not want to be required to break the law to watch their legally bought movies on their legally bought home-theater equipment...
I'm sure that sounded smart and catchy when you came up with it, but it doesn't really follow the line of reasoning you set out in the previous paragraphs.

I'm happy to wait, as I know it'll be worth it.
You cannot donate $1 and get back more than $1.
You can with the American Tax Code. Ask Warren Buffett sometime.
That right there is good strategery.
MODS ON CRACK ALERT!

Just kidding. Dude's a massive tool.
Yet again Apple is heralded on Slashdot for "inventing" something the rest of the business has been doing for years.
Bullshit. A quick text search shows that you're the only one here using the term "invent". Go build a strawman somewhere else.
You can't trust what you see.
That must absolutely suck
Agreed on both.
You can't trust your brain.
I can - photographic memory.
And who says just because you're a geek you don't know how to binge drink, score good drugs and hit on chicks?
One end of the bell curve, of course, but we exist.
I see it as confirmation that Blogging and the "Blogosphere" is an empty and thoughtless echo chamber.
Wow. Your brush was so broad, you tarred yourself in the process. Nice.
I'm with you. A little excitement goes a long way.

Well, that's the point of TFA: You're fucked.
lay down the law
It's the only way to do it. Why the hell should 99%+ of the company literally make your job take longer, cost more and be more frustrating?
This is why I've held on to my copy of PS6. Works great on lower end systems, and still has all of the useful tools.
I stop reading posts when I come across a blatant and easily-debunked lie.
Cool! Must take you all of 5 seconds to get your slashdot reading done for the day, eh?
The constitution is very simple and easy to read.
The right to bear arms. Awesome! I'll have 5 Stinger missiles, 2 assault tanks and one nuke, please.
WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOSH!
How do you figure? The Confederacy didn't hope for war, Lincoln pushed that.
Well, that was before the war. After, I think the symbolism changed somewhat.

Don't be a wuss. Take your moderation like a man, even if you were joking.
There can be only one!
Fixed that for you.
Next up, they'll probably want to push that age back to 40 or so. And who would want to watch that?
People who are into MILF porn?
Seriously, when you say it like that, it doesn't sound so bad. Might want to try another tack.
Nothing moves us backwards faster than progress.

Beat me to it. I sure hope this isn't it, otherwise somebody clue in the Iranians on the meaning of 'hype'.
Networking in general is far more stable and easy to use in 10.5.
I still can't get the 10.4 machine to "see" a windows networked printer for a reliable length of time.
Meh. As someone with a 10.4 and a 10.5 machine, good idea. 10.4 needs to be drowned in a well.
