  3. Re:No three way stand off? on OS X Vs. Vista — In Spandex · · Score: 2, Interesting

    PC World quietly tackled this months ago, and gave the nod to OS X.

  4. Re:Wow... on Microsoft Pressures Testers After Software Leak · · Score: 1

    And this has just been superseded by the new Windows Genuine Name Advantage, a required update.

  6. Re:An open Letter to the RIAA on DMCA Creator Admits Failure, Blames RIAA · · Score: 1

    Worst of all, he failed to include Rather Ripped Records among the legendary Berkeley record shops, the store that actually caused me to drop out of college it was so great. Maybe they were closed by the 90s, though...

  7. Re:Buddhists don't believe in God on Humans Hardwired to Believe in Supernatural Deity? · · Score: 2, Informative

    The historical Buddha is not considered a supreme being, but a human being who transcended attachment, suffering, etc. There might be lots of Buddhas around, for that matter. Karma != fate, but is closer to Newton. A lot of times Buddhist teachers call it "karma cause and effect."

  8. Re:They may be .... on iTunes Uncovers Musical Hoax · · Score: 1

    Not as big as my grocery Chopin Liszt.

  9. Re:Obligatory PCMCIA joke here on Geekspeak Baffles Web Users · · Score: 1

    that's PC World "does not equal" PC Mag

  11. Re:Of Course! on Linux Desktop Ready, Says Mainstream Media · · Score: 1

    PC Magazine, not PC World. PC World PC Mag, though I guess not very many folks read closely enough to care.

  12. Re:Perfect for Slashdot on Harvard Phd Vs. About.com over Gaming · · Score: 1

    The article has a online journalist with a bachelors degree going up against a Harvard PhD.

    Hell, that's more education than a lot of online journalists have, speaking from personal experience.

  13. Re:Oh, the humanity! on Ubuntu 6.06 'Dapper Drake' Released · · Score: 1

    D'oh. Math does not equal big, honking, etc.

  17. Re:Low Res Yes, But Crappy? on Google to Digitize National Archives Footage · · Score: 1

    The Calculus I took last semester was 100% pencil-based. Math big honking calculations.

    La maravilla del español es que cada letra significa solamente un sonido. Lo que ves es igual a lo que oyes.

    The wonderful thing about Spanish is that every letter represents just one sound. What you see is what you hear.

  20. Re:doesn't make sense on Vista Could Ship Earlier Than Expected · · Score: 1

    The article tries to point out that Aug. 31 isn't the actual ship date. It's the RTM date (release to manufacturing). In the past, new Windows versions have shown up on OEM systems about six weeks, or even sooner, after RTM. Retail versions generally show up on actual store shelves a couple of weeks after that.

  23. They've done it before on Vista Could Ship Earlier Than Expected · · Score: 5, Insightful

    Back when MS was shipping a new OS version every 18 months or so, I think they delivered a product earlier than originally planned at least once. It might have been Windows 98.

    Getting Vista installed on the fall OEM systems is probably their number 1 goal (quality and features be damned). They can always start taking out the really buggy stuff during the summer.

  24. Re:Gmail? on Amazon Tries Its Hand at Tagging · · Score: 1

    Yes, because e-mails can have more than one label associated with them.

    No, because you don't get the tag cloud that shows you that a lot of e-mails have a particular tag (sex, for example) by showing that tag in a larger typeface.

  25. Bad Software on History's Worst Software Bugs · · Score: 1

    A 1999 PC World story, Software Bugs Run Rampant, looked at consumer software bugginess, including Microsoft's.
