1. - because it won't run on all kind of different processor architectures on which linux runs
2. - single virus=removal of single bug in a kernel. Now: how much kernel bugs are awaiting to be romeoved this way? I'd be *very* surprised if its more than 5.
okay I stopped reading here: 8. No viruses, worms, and other crap targetting Windows - Linux wins untill it becomes popular
this claim is utterly false. I haven't seen a virus that would redistribute as a source code, and once arrived onto victim computer compiled itself and then ran.
sounds funny? ok, more reasonable: how many users do use linux boxens being logged as root?
still not enough? well, then, go and learn more about basics of security ond OSes.
I didn't read the other responds to this post. so perhaps someone said this: you can connect USB without problems. Just use default kernel for your distribution. put into/etc/fstab kind of:
/dev/sda1/mnt/usb vfat user,noauto,noexec 0 0
then mkdir/mnt/usb
after that you can mount your camera, just by issuing mount/mnt/usb, the only thing you may need to do is to switch camera into mac-mode (or such) - after that camera will act as an external usb hard-drive.
I connect without problems to camera HP320. and cellphone nokia 5510.
nah. why all those guys are saying to stop playing games? This is crazy. You must simply find a game that your beloved likes.
My wife said she will never play adom, because she doesn't play games at all (except for glines). Few months later she plays adom more than me. Isn't it all easy? Just find a game that is addictive enough and you have won!:)
..but since our daughter was born, we don't play that much as previously.

sometimes I really have no faint hint from where all those (insert a handful of appropriate adjectives) anonymous posts came from.
that's kinda.. strange.
lots of sound files there. could you point the one, most interesting?
maybe there is something that sounds like your ocean you mentioned?

if you use automounter or ROX you don't have to mount manually, just click on a folder with camera.
plural of virus is viruses. (first URL at hand)

show your /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 and output from lspci -vvvb
(put on a webpage, or such), I'm sure someone will help you after reading this.

one password to rule them all,
one password to find them,
one password to bring them all
and in the darkness bind them
oh wait... shouldn't people use more than one password?
ROTFL! HAND
since wy wireless keyboard lacks lights, I have to ping my computer from the other machine. If ping responds, then ssh, and kill offending processes :)
While you're at it, get rid of SysRq.
SYSRQ KEY DOCUMENTATION v1.2
Good use for SysRq was introduced long time ago. And still it is *very* useful. Eg. in bleeding-edge 2.6.x kernels
without sysrq key I could have lost some important documents, I can't see a life without this key.

does 3d hw acceleration work on your Geforce, did you have any problems setting it up?
:)
do you think it will work on dual opteron? (I'm thinking about buying dual opteron
that next-generation programming systems will combine compilers, linkers, debuggers, and that other tools will be plugin frameworks, rather than monolithic applications.
yup, it already happened. more than 10 years ago. it's called Rule of modularity and Rule of Composition. In case you don't know. It's the Basics of the Unix Philosophy
on my machine it's ctrl-shift-numlock, dunno why.
yay! flashblock works under galeon 1.2.5 which happens to be my browser of choice, mainly because it supports sessions.
too much work to read everything :) I barely keep up with /.
linux kernel source unpacked takes 150MB, compare yourself. Maybe they have stolen several versions of the source?
thanks :) now I'll downlowad 10GB of music! :))
hey! you shoud say "proven innocent".
Why on earth everyone here talks that suing microsoft is evil?! it's the opposite. Suing microsoft is a Good Thing (tm)
one million of monkeys given enough time will want to talk about poem they've just written ;)
sources mixed
if only it was possible to mod your post +6 I'd do that.
I'd buy one, but not for those cute games.
:)
I'd buy one just to have linux installed on it
I googled after some specs for nintendo DS
