It's not fair play, because in the end it is the user who's always losing. I'm all for recomending Firefox (or unrecomending IE) but as long as it doesn't ruin the experience dor anyone.
I'm not saying it's a license for all computers, but I doubt Suse would charge them the full retail price for a volume license, or it would be cheaper to stay with Windows.
The proper way to do things is to build a site that works before even adding CSS. Once you have your content in a presentable manner, then you add CSS.
I'm sorry but that's just plain wrong. If you follow the latest W3C recommendations, use let's say XHTML Strict + CSSand build a full table-less layout, you're unlikely to get it presentable before adding the style sheet.
The biggest problem here is with the home users, not the sysadmins. You're probably aware that most of them don't use "guinea pig" machines, and have little reason to do so. I do believe a 24-hour release guarantee, plus the Windows default being automatic download and install of patches would certainly help. As for large networks, that option would usually be disabled..
As the parent pointed out, that won't change, it will stay exactly the same. Those who want an alternative with their current hardware will still go for linux, and those who don't mind buying new stuff will either pay for a mac or not, as they would today. The only thing that might change for the end user is the price, and there's no guarantee it will..
I don't really get the macau reference. Don't get me wrong, it's a beautiful place but it's population is less then half a milion, and of course most of them won't play Warcraft. I just can't see what difference it would/will make.
I have now switched from Windows to a Linux desktop and got sound working in all apps installed within a few days of switching.
In a few days? Now I really don't understand what these people are talking about, sound in linux rules. You don't even need a month to get it working, what more could you possibly want?
Secondly they used TAP method which is outdated and inefficient. Predictive text input is much faster.
It's not. It might be in some cases such as 5 year olds with very limited vocabulary, but for general typing it certainly isn't. At least that's my experience, and I tend to write at least a thousand SMS every month - I know it's not that much by today's standards.
Uwe Boll might be the world's greatest misunderstood filmmaking genius.
Oh, now I remember!
I just got your comment on meda-moderation, and I couldn't believe you're labeled as Troll. Guess one can't speak truths anymore.

Change is bad, Microsoft blew $5B on the Xbox project so far simply to keep sony from possibly threatening the windows empire with the ps2.
Even if it was an accident, at least they innovated and built a good console. Not that I'd buy one, I'm more of a PC guy.

Or would you rather all the bugs be found by the bad guys (this one was found by the Gentoo security team)?
I wonder how long it took them to emerge their minds after finding the bug...

Games? A year from now, we'll be seeing Windows games getting ported to the Mac.
Yeah right.
In the end, get another brand-new player and someone to help you double-blind test it. And please, broadcast it live on the net.
No matter how many times it shows up, "King of Prussia, PA" always makes me laugh my ass out.
Those liars.
On what kind of games you like.
Anyway a standard game of Quake3 or any of its MODs (eg. Urban Terror) usually lasts for 20 minutes, and it ain't that demanding on hardware.
But you see, Star Wars at least has some pseudo-scientific stuff going on. In LOTR there are only trees and magic...
I'm sorry but what exactly has LOTR to do with SF?
Oh sure, killing japanese civilians is fine but allied soldiers never!

LOL ok it was just a joke.. There really are Windows servers, ya know?
There's also the already posted on Slashdot article on Uninformed Journal.
What's next? Windows Servers?

Hey but that could harm the US's economy!!!
