Oh come on. In the current American society you cannot move without being sued:) In the UK we even have beer adverts satirising the "sue" culture. Only a fool would believe totally the stuff that Moore and Frankin etc. put out. But personally I agree, and having looked into albeit briefly into some of their arguments and come up with my own opinions I come down more on their "side" rather than Coulter and that awful DJ whose name I cannot even commit to memory.
I am never sure of this argument. There is the Apache thing. Also I am sure there would be some kudos within the hacker community if you were to put in a competent virus for Solaris, GNU/Linux, OS X or whatever.
Well thats correct in some aspects. At the large corporate money pit where I work we are moving number crunching stuff to Intel/Redhat (for Risk calculations etc) on mostly blade systems.
However many third party front-office, and back-office financial applications run on Solaris/Unix backends only. We won't be getting rid of them any time soon.
Also as an SA who supports both the Solaris, and the Redhat boxes I have to say that the Sun support model leaves the Compaq/Redhat model looking very sub-standard indeed.

As far as I know most American /.'s prefer to bash the bishop than anything else.

Well my dual-G5 Mac with ATI9800 runs UT2004 with all settings to maximum at 1900*1200.
Shame there aren't more ports

Office.X can write to PDF, but thats part of the OS.
Not especially it's about Office, and MS make Office for the Mac.
Surely thats down to the absence of some sort of animated paperclip ?
Seriously ? Like huge spaceships travelling at greater than light speed ?
Without the big breasts it would/should have been cancelled long ago.
