Google is a great search engine that provides a FREE service - searching. It's like a great news TV station - if they are not subscription based, they HAVE TO advertise. Yahoo and everyone else is doing it. I hope that Google provides a subscription based, add free search just for you. But I know you will NOT pay up.
Google triumphed over all the others. MSN is still nothing... worse portal than yahoo, worse news than any other, worse serach than all the crap combined. So how would MS pull this out? MS will fail. Google is only one of the piranas that are taking them down. Linux is another one, cheap hardware does a lot of biting too.
People, please don't delude themselves. Magazines make their FORTUNES by selling to the highest bidder. What do they sell? - the public opinion, of course. Fortune sold you to MS. It's as simple as that. There is a concerted attempt to tarnish Google in the media - as of lately. Every stupid article is dutifully reported by yours own, long-sold-out/. Fortunes, fortunes... Google would not sold out to MS though and old-Billy-Boy is cranking up the slime machine. Very very simple. Very, very boooring. BTW, if Billy indexes my hard drive, it will not be mine any more...
Your statetemnt must be a complete nonsense. There is a very large world population that has never owned BMW or GM. Some don't even have running water much less Coke... Google is e better known name. Come to terms with it.
RHEL Workstation is $179
What's the point of this? Windows is cheaper. In fact RH recomended... Windows. In effect trying to cut off the other Linux distros and give their share to the Borg. Mnadrake is a perfect home system, issues regular bug-fixes and is not a broken, unsupported piece of test-ware as Fedora. Mandrake is actually better than RHEL in many respects. Some drivers are lacking but these are few and far between and are comming along nicely.
He will say "Fedora". And will decieve some. Fedora is unstable piece of sh*t and much worse than Mandrake Suse or Debian. It is product with the dstiny to be RHEL in perpetual beta-testing. It will never be usable enough for an average user, nor will it compete with their more expensive RHEL. RH is telling us to use Windows. They made RH more expensive than it for home users. They have to get wiped out and something else installed on their place.
My understanding is that RedHat isn't about replacing Windows.
Any OS distributor who "isn't about replacing Windows" is a complete moron. This is where the market IS. There is not much else to begin with. Who needs RH then? The only reason Linux is needed is prcisely to replace Windows. (Even when replacing another *nix, the question is "Do we go with Windows or Linux")
Notice that they *haven't* stopped. It's just called Fedora now, and has a more open developement process.
OK, they haven't stopped it, they stoped the support for it. Those who don't need support, don't need Red Hat to begin with. We'll see a mass migration to Mandrake, Suse and Debian in that order. Fedora is MUCH worse that any of those. Would you consider riding a donkey just because because you car manufacturer stopped support for your car? No, you go to another, more responsible one.
Because it was loosing money. Next. Not next but before that, RH made their NAME and ENTIRE BUSINESS with this "loOsing money" distro. RH went from loss to profit with it and will now fail just like Caldera with their drive towards expensive distros.
If Debian, SUSE and Mandrake are stable and (some) have commersial support, why go to Fedora and start from the old g(l)ory days ALL OVER AGIAN. Going with Fedora is not sane! Not to mention that it will NEVER be good enough - RH will not allow it to compete with RHEL. Why would anyone go to a product that is only a TESTBED for another expensive product? Isn't it clear what the path is?
With the sudden EOL for RH products, how are company's to trust RH's commitment to their products and services?
Simple answer - RH can't be trusted. They know full well what they are doing but the true purpose will never be admitted. So forget RH and look at Mandrake or Novel/SUSE
He will recommend Fedora. But don't even listen to him. No good feature that competes with RHEL will be ever be alowed in Fedora. Go Mandrake and wait for the next cheap RH-based distro. Forget RH for good.
Move to Mandrake. I don't know what is going on with RH but is no good. One can't be a LINUX vendor without a chaep COMMITED AND SUPPORTED desktop distro. RH will go the way of SCO. Reasons are below the waterline, IMHO. Anyway the best bet is to go Mandrake. Then wait - someone will start another RH-compatible distro real soon. Nothing to wory about. Mandrake is actualy better than RH.
Please, mod parent up. A very good question. A lot of people feel this way. Many are looking at Novel and Suse but this will take some time (hopefully short). We will have to switch out of RH, period. RedHEL is too expensive and too proprietory.
We are talking drivers with GL acceleration here. What you show are plain vanila 2d drivers. NVIDIA is the only company for good Linux 3d cards. Nothing else even comes close. All of my computers run NVIDIA. ATI is simply not an option with Linux. And I know full well that the various documents are written by people that do not own the cards, use them to start up KDE and report status. We are talking about cards that CAN actually play 3d games under Linux. ATI is NOT an option.
via's 7 watt chip is 2 to 3 times slower than intels 300 watt chips.This is NOT correct. I have studied the Via vs AMD mobile. You get close to the same performance/W from both. 45W AMD is 4/5 times faster than 10W Via. The difference is absolutely not worth the trouble to go paralel.
In other news the homicidal criminals and their families is three times higher than among non-criminals. Yes, innocents will suffer too until their own leaders promote the insane suicide culture.
Three times as many Palestinians have died as have Israelis, but nobody in the mainstream media seems to want to report that fact, expect maybe AFP.
We all know this. But a number of suicide maniacs still remain. The only option is to continue to wipe them out and pray for the innocent that die along with them. Satisfying the wants of terrorists NEVER works. It just encourages them to want more.
Yeah, I've got one. Pretty good toy. The lack of emulator for this device is somewhat annoying. One has to switch the environment in order to test and I can't seem to be able to get them the same.
I agree with your general sentiments, but I really hate to see this lawsuit used to show how screwed up our legal system is.
It's not the lawsuit as such but the insane punitive damages that were imposed. On top of that in no way McDonalds (which I never visit) is at fault for the accident - just for the burns. You just don't drink and drive. It's as simple as that. The court could have ordered them to change the temperature in one of the previous cases but instead the trial lawers kept raking the company. This is wrong with the US system - punishment for NOT breaking any law, postfactum made up claims. It doesn't matter how much money Mcdonalds have, what's next - sueing makers of coffee-machines because they produce hot coffee? Coffee comes out hot - weather you like it or not.

Fedora is a test-distro and does not issue security or bug updates for any meaningfull time frame. Fedora is a joke.

Is that Weasel Clark? Sounds like him. This nazi animal was instumental in the Waco massacre. He sure knows how to burn people.
Bah, if the 9th circus gets involved, we are all screwed.
