Hmmm Mac costs more does less. i don't like what that would say about me no thanks
Why have a desk clutered with dozens of crappy old underpowered bulky noisy beige boxen when you can have one simple, elegant machine replace them all?
well you can get a better PC for less than a mac so they couldn't aford an elegant (read we spent more time designing the outside than inside)anyway.
all the people i ever met who were considering a mac (and thats a lot as always seem to have people coomming to me for advice on what to buy) had never owned anysort of computer in ther life and were rather shocked when i told them that it was not compatable with PC's.
Windows 98 stability is to install it and not install a bunch of crappy drivers.
Shame 98 try's to install crappy drivers automatically. XP is definetly a god send (despite after my recent re-installation it now won't register). but I can't wait for Linux to be a bit more mature (alright the main reson i don't switch enterlly to Linux is gaming). but i have to say XP is impresive when compared to all other windows but maybe i just comparing a (old) skoda to a reliant.
The problem that many of us have with socialism isn't with the theory, it's with the practice. From each according to his means, and to each according to his needs is fair, in theory. In practice it's from each according to his means and to each according to his political connections. For example, the people of Cuba are starving, but Fidel never misses a meal.
Thats Comunnism and there has not been a communist system that didn't act like that. socialism is a diffrent beast (althought plenty of communists said they where socialists)there are many countrys that have socialist policies for example any country that has state run schools and country that has a non oppresive law enforcment any country that has equal rights and oppertunity. 3 countrys that come to mind that don't/didn't have socialist ideas are Iraq Iran and Afghanistan
I don't know about where YOU come from, but where I am, hospitals send you a bill. Either you pay it, your insurance pays it, or nobody pays it. In the last case, the hospital needs to make up for that loss somehow, so the people that do pay get higher bills.
You might as well urge hard working Americans in the automobile manufacturing industry to welcome cheap imports built with slave labor. After all, it means cheap cars for everyone!
Not just cheaper but more reliable intrestingly American built Ford Focus's are one of the most unreliable cars in the world european built one's are the among the most reliable cars. now ford are considering shutting the American plant and moving all Focus production to Europe, of course the union and workers will complain but they only have themselves to blame for producing sub standard cars. If you want the perfect example of this take a look at British leyland and british manufacturing in general during the late 60's earley 70's they were below standard cars with workers inclinded to strike at the drop of a hat they deservedly failed. now after years of intensive care most car manufactures have a plant here especially for high performance engines and suspension most of the formula 1 teams are based here as well as most of the World rally Cars this would have been unthinkable during the leyland years in other words survival of the fittest if you can't compete dont blame the opposition for being better instead improve youself.
it is about destroying high paying jobs and moving them overseas.
any jobs that are lost will be throught an un willingness to change to the situation and you can bet it won't be the high paid who lose there job they will be the ones deciding how many to sack so they can keep reciving the same wage.
Just tried to go to the link and the company firewall stopped me from going on, and told me reason was because to page I was going to (gator.com) contained SPYWARE.
My company is a UK government department (Rural payments agency for those interested)and we consider Gator spyware (which it so obviously is) so my point is when will Gator be suing the UK government for calling them spyware?. Answer never because the government have the money to go to court and let true justice take it's course rather than risk going bankrupt before the case is resolved.
Today the president of the United states of Linux issued a warning to the leaders Scohanistan that they must hand over the Terrorist known as Darl McLaden for his cowardly attempt to destroy the USL or face Immediate stealth DOS Attacks. Bill bin gates leader of the Talibun (finest bun bakers in the world) has denied helping or financing McLaden.
Just who terrorises whom? As far as I can see it's Anti Linux Zealot's who are doing the majority of the terrorising (think Sco) and this coming from someone who Rob Enderle would class as a pro because I am neutral between Linux and windows and try to use the most appropriate for what I want to do. His assumption that anyone who uses just one operating system (Linux) is somehow a terrorist is an ignorant, arrogant and hypocritical view, that fails to take into account that Windows Zealots are just as bad. (For the record it's windows Nutters/Zealots like Rob Enderle that convinced me to try Linux in the first place, I thought that if they hate it so much it must be good.
I despise the socialist idea to take away the individuals own responsability and freedom
By your definition bush is as socialist as they come.
the oposite of socialism is anti soicial ism i.e. being anti social like playing your music loud at night keeping your neighbours awake.
once again socialism is linked to communism despite socialism being aplicable to either capitalism or comunism. (for the record i am a socialist and i am a capitalist)i dont support comunism because it takes away the basic rights of people and places the state above the person. i dont support anti socialism because that would mean i have to be a C**t to people. Most people who say they are not socialists are, if you care about someone thats socialism if you help a neighbour or the community that's socialism if you better the world even in the tiniest way possible that's socialism, it has nothing to do with the economic or politacle system.
For making me addicted to oxygen, i try not to breath it in but if i hold by breath i just have to take a drag of that sweet sweet oxygen.
Actually i wil just sue McDonalds for making me fat, right after i have another couple of Cheese burgers yes i will have fries with that actual get me a big mac as well and a fillet o' fish because thats healthy need to watch my figure.
Sorry but the others are all awfull if you get bt your going to end up killing youself before you get connected. There is blueyonder but there mostly in the north if your in one of there areas your a lucky lucky B@"%"d. other than that its NTL for most of the country. Hell at least it is one of the fastest options available (1 megabit) and they are sorting out there realability issues just need to work on there customer service. Don't even think about Sky it's just good Dial up (shudder). from what i have heard from friends is that NTL is good in comparison to the others.
I no way was permission given for them to sell your adress etc or to process the application because you didn't sign the form.
They have done something wrong but to what level it would be hard to find out, if someone faked your signature that would be fraud, if was just someone being dumb and processing the form anyway that would probably be something for industry watchdogs rather than the courts. However there was something done wrong/dishonestly
Now the WW2 was responsible for the "Departure of 26 million men from the workforce" in the USSR between 1941-1946.
And what in recent history has happened to America that compares to that? The Iraq war doesn't 9-11 doesn't, nothing does because 3.3 million Americans weren't killed they lost there jobs. That is a frighteningly warped comparison it must have taken hours of weird thinking to come up with that.

what the one where girls prance about wearing armour and helmets because there scared of being hurt, instead of playing a full contact game like real football (the one where they use there feet hence the name) or rugby a bit like fake football but without the wimpy armour and increased violence
If they where influenced by GTA they need locking up anyway as they will obviousley do something again this time influenced by the something else maybe the news maybe a book they read whatever. If they are that feeble minded they do need to be looked after and kept away from normal society who manage not to do these things.
Also why have the parents not tought them right from wrong? if they had they would have known that shooting at someone is wrong, hell i knew that sort of thing was wrong when i was 8, i love violent games and movies and i have managed to go through life without hurting anyone even when provoked beacause i was thought right from wrong.
no one smoking pot is going to invent anything. they're going to sit around eating chips and playing video games
Nah you do invent things and talk about all the cool ideas you had but will they ever get built.... no beacause your sitting around eating crisps playing computer games and inventing more things in your head

Hallelujah can I get an amen to that. Now do you think you could tell that to my users they don't belive me when i tell them things like that?

Well in the UK nobody pays

That is the biggest problem i have with my friends using my computer the amount of times i have told them NOT to click OK regardless.
Now i only let them onto Linux and firebird no more cases of random pr0n dialups ETC.

The articule looks more like a rant from a zelot than about them
Hmmm look it up yourself implies you could find nothing to back yourself up with and this is of course no diffrent from American weapon sales to Iraq here's the link because there is evidence for this
when the USA is trying to fight down the opressors of this world.
Last time i looked there was no Civil war in the USA (who will get whats being implied there)
Actually i wil just sue McDonalds for making me fat, right after i have another couple of Cheese burgers yes i will have fries with that actual get me a big mac as well and a fillet o' fish because thats healthy need to watch my figure.
+5 funny please someone
For me the biggest shock is that court documents can be sealed for no good reson (like protecting the identity of a minor)

More fool them it will be them that sufers in the long run no one else.

But if i was one of the parents kids i would sue my parents for trying to F**k my education
