So let's see if I understand your double standard.
There are things that people can't sell. This do-not-sell list includes friendship, trust, love, respect and many other things. Sale of things from do-not-sell list does not transfer them to purchaser. It transfers only some corrupted version of them.
I haven't said anything about seller. He might lose his friends too, if he tries to "sell" them.
MS being watched closely while Apple and F/OSS is not.
"As part of its Information Assurance mission, the National Security Agency has long been involved with the computer security research community in investigating a wide range of computer security topics including operating system security."
And it supported (and supports) its customers extremely well.
Do you have some six figure contract with Microsoft? Are you their only contractor with tactical nuclear weapons?:)
They work with you only because it is safer and more profitable to do that way. Others are not that lucky. Office upgrades cost the same as full Office versions. Other software vendors make changes in their products that force people to buy more expensive Microsoft software even when existing software has all the features that are needed to run Autodesk Data Management Server 2009.
And render correctly, just like if you created a W3C-compliant HTML 4 document with a W3C-compliant CSS style sheet that displays correctly in every other browser other than IE, right?
Combine text-decoration: strikethrough; with text-align: justify; and test Gecko. Or check how Opera works with positioned background-image.
Did they fix the bug where Safari installs as an iTunes update?
New (released more than one month ago) Apple Software Update has two sections. One for updates and other for new software. When Safari was introduced, Software Update had only one section.
I don't understand the complaints about the awesomebar. You can still type in URLs like you always did. The only difference is that now as you start to type the URL in, it's more likely that the place you wanted to go will pop up for you to select.
When I type URL in location bar, I expect that only URLs are suggested. If I wanted to search for something, there is other text box.
How much would they add as a surcharge to ship any model I choose WITHOUT a Microsoft operating system on it?
46 USD, if they have corresponding nSeries model. Compare Dell Precision Workstation T3400 525W with T3400 nSeries 525W. Same price difference on 375W models. Vista with XP upgrade costs more that RHEL Workstation.
You might have to pay ungoddy amount of dollars if they don't have corresponding nSeries model.
I can't download and keep my extensions for future install. I really don't like using up bandwidth downloading the same extensions each time I install Firefox.
1. You don't lose installed extensions each time you upgrade firefox. They are installed in your user's profile.
2. You can download and keep your extensions. Just download xpi files instead of installing them.
Company: Our marketing and sales department f...ed up and we had to burn all Corel Essential boxes, because people stopped buying full CorelDRAW versions and bought Corel Essentials + CorelDRAW upgrades. Thank you for using our products. If you need minimal Corel version to read cdr files, buy full CorelDRAW version.
Some people would argue that using Slackware for this is crazy, but (a) Slackware is a lean and mean developement platform, and a very lean Linux distribution and (b) it will teach you a lot of things about Linux, and UNIX in general.
It won't be lean and mean after you install mono with slackbuild. Box that is supposed to be basic + mono + gui will also have lots of C development tools.
This forces users of version 'N' to upgrade to version 'O.' -- Profit for Microsoft.
And Microsoft does not sell Office upgrades. Try upgrading, if your SA is expired or you have outdated OEM version. "Upgrade" costs same amount of money as full retail version.
Looks like one of them is possible nominee for Darwin awards. Geek or funny mod points for creating machine that shots floppies and Darwin award for standing in front of that machine.
Geforces are optimized for gaming (directx and your FPSes). Quadros are optimized for CAD (opengl). If same gpu is compared, memory bandwidth, FLOPS and fill rate
are similar. Price is 400 USD for Geforce vs 2000-2500 USD for Quadro.
So you trust your bank even when it issues signed and "trusted" certificate of www.otherbank.com

Calculate CAD workstation.
Nvidia Quadro instead of Geforce 9600 GT. 10K RPM hard drives. Two monitors.
