  1. Re:Fixing the bias on What the Candidates are Running · · Score: 1
    The "IIS on Linux" claim could be one of three things:

    It could also be that they are using Akamai much like www.microsoft.com so it LOOKS like it is running Linux.

    Also, isn't www.whitehouse.com a pr0n site? I think the parent meant www.whitehouse.gov.

  2. Virtual Desktops on Mac OS X 10.3 vs. Linux · · Score: 2, Interesting
    A feature I would love to see in Mac OS X is virtual desktops.

    Me too. I've been a Linux user for years. I took a job at a prepress company last year, and now have a TiBook running Jaguar on my desk. OS X is okay, but it needs virtual desktops, badly.

    I have a dual head setup with an external monitor and the laptop's LCD screen. I frequently have both screens covered with windows, and can't find what I want. Maybe Panther will fix this with Expose, but it's not the same as virtual desktops.

    Does anybody know of decent virtual desktop software for Mac OS X?

    I've tried this but it's not really virtual desktops, it's more of a kludge that uses "Hide Application" to simulate them. (Or at least it was, it's been a few months since I tried it.) It also has that gigantic desktop switcher box that uses up my precious screen real-estate.

    I sure would like to find one that works like the traditional X11 notion of virtual desktops.

    I think it's something like 1.18 imperial assloads.
