Got it 2 weeks ago while travelling to South Korea. The Samsung desktop was pretty heavy to handle in the return trip, but I think it was worth the trouble. Now I have a computer that can only run the software that Microsoft allows, so no viruses or open source suspicious code will run on it. This feature is what I was waiting for. Now I won't need to run antiviruses and firewalls just to make my computer safe, while taking over resources from other applications. I wonder if Linux will be able to copy this feature, or if its developers will steal code as they did with SCO.
It happened some days ago. I couldn't believe that SCO filled a suit against me. It is a fact I have some Slackware Linux CDs here in my shack, but they only caused me trouble.
After days trying to install Slackware, passing through very intricate problems such as setting kernel flags, using fdisk on the command line, etc. I couldn't have even a decent graphic environment running properly (I mean decent because it could run at 320x200). Fortunately my other machine, which runs Windows 95 flawlessly, could help me to dial into the internet and search for help on configuring Linux. But it was in vain, after posting several messages in newbie's groups and trying to get answers in IRC channels, all I got was a huge amount of "RTFM" statements. The documentation was too scarce on how to compile kernel modules and have xfree use them. After some weeks fighting against this xfree nonsense, I figured out that Linux was not supposed to be a desktop operating system, it was designed to be a server OS. So I decided to use it through a remote command prompt (shell). At this point I figured out my network card (a jumperless one) was not recognized by the kernel. Actually, several other hardware devices did not work properly, such as my audio card and my mouse wheel on gpm. At this point I realized this Linux thing was useless and reformatted the machine, installing the much better Win98.
Now I'm even more troubled because of this Linux thing. SCO demands that I go to the court and pay them more money that what I'll be able to make in my whole life. The only thing I can pay for are my Windows and Office licenses. Do you think I can get a lawyer to defend me? I think it's right for SCO to go after these Linux people who stole its proprietary code, and I regret having "used" Linux once in my life. I wish SCO have mercy and free me from any accusations.

First it was the pudge retard with his sissy words about Macs. Now this michael dumbo with his usual lack of style, and the added uppercase stupidity. What's coming next up? Taco and his usual faggotry?
Well, see you in 72 hours.
I don't want a G5 on my lap anyway. It'd make me feel guilty, having that much power in a small package while other people can't even get it in a PC tower. Oh, and I don't want to burn my lap.
I want to know who this Pudge guy is. I want to punch him. I guess I can find him at the GNAA.
It finds its lost [british] beagle counsin while wandering, so that they can conspire on how to take over the world (mars) together, as their counterparts do here in earth.
I could copy it some months ago from a friend that works in Microsoft. He's an old fellow, and I convinced him I wouldn't pass the thing forward. He was naive enough to believe in the story and gave me the full XP+SP1 source code.
After several days trying to figure out how to compile the beast, I could manage to do it. It took some days to compile on my Cyrix machine. And now, believe me or not, I'm typing in a self-compiled XP machine.
I can assure you the code is really dull and ill maintained. Not that Linux is that different from it, but the NT kernel is a huge mess.
I've done some experimentation to compile parts of the code with gcc, with limited success. In fact, I could compile the whole kernel using gcc (paying the price of getting a much slower kernel), but win32 is really complex and can't use it nicely.
Now I leave my precious source code in a specific (Western Digital) hard drive, in the back of a closet I've here in my shack. It uses strong crypto, so if the FBI goes after me they won't find anything (btw, I don't use NTFS crypto - peeking at the source code I've found that there is a backdoor password that can decrypt a volume, but that I won't tell you).
The most demanded professions now and in the future are: 1. spam systems management and 2. pr0n systems management. This study couldn't make more sense.
Satellite data links have huge latencies, so dont count on them to play counterstirke. Also, if you get a storm, go do something else, your link is dead. Otherwise it is good - in particular in these fucked up places in the world where you and me get sent by our nice companies.

Now wait until the Linux developers steal and port this code as they did with SCO Unix.

Less companies will be willing to use GPL software in their products.
Don't say bad words otherwise god will fuck you.

But can a good soul explain me what's supposed to be a "componentized" distribution, and how this is different from a "regular" distribution?
Maybe I'm missing the point, but can't I install whatever I want (name it components or whatever) in most distributions?

Why someone would want to invade that beast? To run Photoshop remotely?

I wonder if solaris source code will leak too. I guess this thing about source leaks is taken now as a marketing approach.
Claim patent on Slashdot.
Gimme all your subscription money or get sued.
Please don't take this as a flamebait, but isn't it your impression that Perl is still touted only in Slashdot?
Whatever. Now piss off.

Ever saw ascii?
Now the big question is: who to clone?
I, for one, can only think of people that should not exist.

Can this be used to put goatse.cx back into its graceful state of operation?
Napster could only succeed on this "niche" if it could allow people to download pr0n.
It's time for the new rome to fall.

They may also wish these 100M to be paid in windows licenses, preferably to use in schools.
