It isn't used on home computers only, it is also used in digital cameras and compact flash memory cards, who this is going to affect more. These have have much smaller disk spaces (currently, at least). So, it is going to affect more people than you think.
The problem with this is that scientists want to get credit for what they are doing. Both of my parents are scientists and even though they want to get more people interested in science they want to get the credit, not someone else who manages to see that two and two equals four where they didn't.
If they are doing so well as the report suggests, maybe they can dedicate some more time to developing the free (money) ones as well, to entice new people to Red Hat who might be buying the enterprise additions.
It seems sensible to me that, in a similar fashion that domains are case-insensitive, accented characters, etc. should be based on an original letter, e.g. "a acute" or "a grave" should all be based on the "a" letter, as "A" is based on a". This way, its possible to have the domain name with accented characters or any other non-unicode letters, in exactly the same way we *can* have http://TALrIaS.Net/ which is exactly the same as http://talrias.net/ (shameless plug there).
Obviously this wouldn't work for non-Latin alphabets like greek, chinese, japanese. Thoughts on this anyone?

CmdrTaco is really having problems with using "too" rather than "to" today!
But... but... the editors are spelling extraordinaires! You have a severe lack of faith!

no, a horse would, for being inadequate for taking around people at a decent speed.
