I never had any problems with xcdroast...and I have no idea where to even start with cdrecord, i've always been to timid to investigate that. (Well, ok, I have an idea where to start: man cdrecord. but you know what i mean.)
In fact, xcdroast is the first burner program i'd ever used, 3 years ago or so...someone lent me cds to switch to linux from windows, and i was investigating this new land, and i had a new burner. A new version of Mandrake came out, so I decided to attempt burning it, and xcdroast made it easy.
in comparison, i find k3b harder to deal with, especially for burning isos. It's largely what you're used to.
I also used to have google, but with the google search bar in firefox that's pretty useless.
So now I have it to my own home page, on a server in my closet -- it links to the webcomics I read and forums I frequent, so it's basically a glorified bookmarks set.
When Richard Stallman gave Bill Gates the finger in front of Stanford's computer science building, I got nervous. No, it wasn't the real Bill Gates -- it was just his name, engraved in giant letters over the main entrance to the 2-year-old, Gates-funded building.

"Hey," Stallman called out to a graduate student opening the door in front of us, "is it the tradition here to give Bill the finger whenever you go through these doors?"
The student looked over his shoulder, twitched a nervous smile and disappeared inside. Stallman shrugged -- and right there on the spot decided to start his own protest movement. As we entered the building, out came what the ancient Romans used to call the "digit impudicus." Stallman flashed me a sly grin.
Yes. Another building is moving into the Gates building. It couldn't be the famous free software leader who works in the MIT compsci department (which is relocating to the new building) whose precense there is deliciously ironic.
You realize that many alternate-browsers spoof IE headers so that they don't get rejected by MS-powered websites?
Konqueror and Opera may even do it by default.
Umm, tell OO that you're already registered and it will go away. And i've never had any resource problems with OO 1.1.1....granted, I have an athlon64, so that means fairly little.
And to be honest, I don't believe that you can run Word 2000 on a 486. Modern Words could barely keep up with my typing on a k6-2 450 I used to have...
This is exactly why it's much easier for screen-readers to handle a linux environment than a windows/mac one. You can read text. It's rather more difficult to read graphics, images, buttons and the like.
Free software is actually greatly used by the disabled for computer interfaces. Unlike windows, projects can freely modify the source code to work better for the blind and other such groups, and they have. This is one of the arenas where foss shines.
No athlon64 mobos are on the list, sorry.
More jobs for me!
Sure, and apt-rpm. I have no experience with those though.

Nothing stops you from having 12 such partitions, however.
And x-cd-roast is nearly as intuitive, and probably uses gtk.
There's no functional difference, beyond that emerge takes a heck of a lot longer.
That obviously refers to firebird...what did firebird's about thing say? is this just unchanged or what?

fuckwit.
You could make the valid contention that it's "nobodywantstouseitware," however.
Anyway, couldn't you list Emacs as the operating system, the browser, the gui, and the hardware architecture? (I'm sure that must be an extension.)
Ummm.....why?
That would be exactly what I expect them to do. The only unlikely bit is that they haven't done it already.
It'll be dominant within months, just wait.

google.com
If you consider that recent.

sigh....pedants.
OS X falls under foss. Even so, it's more graphically oriented than many linux distros.
Anyway, screen readers make it possible to skip unimportant output, and scroll back and forth to find important parts, just as the text console does.

Having taken japanese for two years, I can confirm that it is all true.
More impressive than the original matrix?
The Wachowski brothers were very much anime-motivated in that movie...

You can replace your text consoles with speech consoles in make menuconfig.
Given where you're asking this, I think your results may not be as low as you seem to expect them to be.
