Last time I tried Konquerer, it did indeed still suck at rendering... However, I use Safari all the time and rarely run across a page it doesn't display properly (currently using the Safari 1.3 Developer Beta, yes I have it legally). In Safari 2.0 (will ship with OS X.4), the JS engine is completely reworked and about 100x faster...
"Better browser" comments are almost always nothing more than personal opinion, unless of course the person is claiming IE is a better browser, in which case they're clearly mistaken;)
just from the vague descriptions of your systems you two gave I'd say MAYBE KDE needs more memory than Gnome... since you have about double what he has and yours is super fast while his is slow... who'dathunkit
Everyone's brain is manufactured as a genius brain, but a lot of times it doesn't pass all the performance tests and will be rated and sold with a lower processing speed. Overclocking it slightly probably wouldn't hurt anything, but don't go too far or you'll have stability issues.
aside from the mobo/proc what's proprietary about their hardware?
SURPRISE!
Macs use the same RAM, HDs, DVD/CD drives and video cards as PCs. They just generally have more specific requirements than PCs (for example, you can't throw just any old RAM into a G5, you have to have two modules of the same type, they pretty much try to keep you from making a computer that sucks)
I gotta ask, why isn't the above comment modded informative or insightful? I assume it was modded funny because he calls VT's supercomputer "Big Mac" but is that not what it's nickname was?
(go ahead mods, mod me "troll" or "flamebait", it's called an opinion, you should try having one.)
Did you RTFA? The rover was rebooting over and over because it was using up all of it's memory... then eventually the batteries were low so it went into a sort of 'safe mode' where only the absolute minimum was loaded, and that's when NASA was able to communicate with it again...
It was nothing like what you described, just a VERY well designed system (though it would have been somewhat better had the system been able to go straight to "safe mode" after the initial critical error (running out of memory))
Did the people with mod points RTFA? Score 5 Insightful?
You could use just that... "lin---s" (with the quotes) google treats anything between quotes (or anything after a quote if there's only one) as an exact phrase to search for.
if someone were to try to hide a back door in linux, I'm sure that one of the many many other developers would take notice and have it removed (if it even managed to get checked in in the first place). Your argument doesn't stand up too well.
what other decent web server would they run besides apache? just wondering...

If you had RTFA (the one ON SLASHDOT, there actually isn't a longer one this time), you would have seen that the variant that targets Microsoft doesn't start it's attack until Monday, and I highly doubt Microsoft is as stupid as SCO and is already prepared for the attack.
I haven't been making any jokes but just in case I do in the future let me say now, I USE OS X! So I'm not quite part of the OSS community.

SCO had plenty of time to prepare for this. They were well aware it was coming. I personally believe it's a publicity stunt. (which probably wouldn't surprise anybody around here).
I have this book myself, and I can say that it puts the documentation in a much more readable form, and just a FYI, most of the online documentation has NOT been updated for PHP5. Think before you submit next time.
SCO needs to just drop this whole thing... all they've done is made themselves look like fools.
I did have a more lengthy post planned, and I'll get to it eventually... (probably 15 SCO stories from now, (in a couple days or so))

I don't really see how an acquisiton or merger would make any difference. Care to elaborate?
