RMS (mostly) and The KDE team displayed an ego problem. What is really needed is for everyone to get back on track and focus on our own goals for their projects and do not worry about what anyone else says.
These schools do not want to liable if Carnivore. Is used for the wrong reason. Would want to be the school that OK a sysytem that framed the wrong man.
The real question is where does the right of the consumer begin and the right of the company end. If company X provide a product for a specific purpose does the consumer has the right to use the product in any way he feels fit? Would I as a company would have the right stop the consumer from using it as he seems fit. These are the question that need to answer quickly.
As OSes and software is getting cheaper everyday Intel better start worring about AMD eating thier lunch. Since software will soon become a minimal cost of building computers. People will see that AMD is giving more bang for the buck.
What is your goal? How time do you have? Who do you have on staff? How many line of code are expected? Answer these question and you would know why you would pick C over C++ or C++ over C. Ok
I would have to admit that 2000 is an improvement over NT 4. The answer is still it depends.
What are you doing with the system?
Do you have any applications that you can only get on NT?
Do you have the staff to support the os of your choose?
Add your question here.
NT, Linux, BSD, Solaris, MacOS these are only tools. Rememeber it not a war of OS here it is about getting the job done the best way possible.
Now with this released let KDE/GNOME compete on merit not politics. The sad fact is that KDE is at a disadvantage because of the Big corporate sponsership of Gnome. This does not mean that KDE can not get sponsered by these same companies. It just mean that KDE would have to have another project within the companies. Intel sponsers BEOS and Linux because it helps them sell hardware. If a company can see that they can make money of sponsering KDE they will.
Check it use beat it up purge it system out of bugs
This a a quote from the perl site for thsoe who
do not read the links
"Check that your favorite patch is in, check that your favourite module still works, check that it still works on your favourite platform. Yes, I know it's a development release, but I still would prefer not to wreak havoc more than necessary," he said.
I am glad the bugs are getting ironed out now. With any new technology things like this are likely to happen. I wonder are the docs on the Bluetooth protocols are available for public viewing so more people can find more security issues like this.
This takes away from the Olympics it takes away the human factor. Alot of people would love to read the day to day thoughts of athletes what are they going through. People will follow the events even more so when the human element is added.
Emulators threaten companies like Nintendo, Sega, Sony... etc. They are scared of this technology instead they should embrace it they would increase thier sales have them start selling ROMS of old games they can create a new market for themselves or try to fight this. I doubt they would try and create a new market.
Everyone understands the impact people like Rich Stevens made in the lives of Unix programmer. I am glad to see that articles like this pay it due respects.
These people do not understand that we are not tring to any wrong.

We are just creating an application that can use YOUR product. We would think you would be happy about this. Do you understand if your company tries and stop people from exploring the possiblity with your product. That you will hurt only your own sales. Instead of tring to stop this you should at least try and work with the people who could possibily be creating a set of customers for you.
I believe they can do this with out breaching the privacy policy. For instance if company X wants to seel to Amazons' computers books buyers then amazon will contact those buyers with the offer and no data is transfered to outside parties so they did not sell your information to this company they sold the right to contact amamzon's user. I heard of this being done so privacy contracts are not breached.
Companies sell your data all the time. They do not need the internet for that. Credit card companies, mail order companies, magazines... ect. They were doing this before the internet exploded. I received a mailing for thinkgeek (which I think is cool) where do you think they got my address from them I never purchased anything from them. They bought my name from somewhere because I was labeled as a linux geek. On the internet there is less information being given out then your Credit Card company. People are complaining about privacy when privacy died years ago.
If some creates a new distro or a sub distro that is complaint but would only give the source code to the owner of the product. I do not see the problem with this. It would not violate the GNU license since you only have to give the source to the people who own the program. That would solve the problems. Or just create a BSD distro that is complaint. You do not have to give any code to anyone.
What I would like to see happen is another country or company step up to the call of tring to go to Mars. This will help create some competion so NASA will come up with more great ideas like this one. I would like to to another great space race.
This is a the geeks way of modify thier car adding a great sound sysytem and such. I am always impressed when people to these updrades to thier own machines. It says I do not need the company to make any changes I can do it my damn self
There are theories out there that suggest planets and evens moons have life on them already but they are with the crust of the planet. I am not talking about the Lost World. I am talking about bacterial life that was formed from with the earth and then if the condtions outside were ok they came and formed into more complex lifeform the answer may not be above but below

Transmeta's biggest assets are Linus and Paul. Just on the name value alone Transmeta as a good chance of making it work.

From what I read this looks more like a boot manager more than a VM I could be wrong but who knows.

The history of computers is an interesting topic isn't there a project cataloging all the different parts of computer history going on?
Now you can control your OS and city with linux that is freedom

I wonder if the US will start making emulators iilegal to even have. You can not import from another country let hope this does not happen.
