Americans, french, israeli, palestinian are all human people...
We all eat, drink, sleep
We all like children
We all love Women (men/dogs/cats/sheeps...)
Having the same tastes, we could all be friends (Bah...).
Well, there are these that bad bad things called "Hate" and "Politics" that make/made people do awfull things this century and the last one...
Personnaly, I'm french and I love americans (the american girls).
So, you see... The antagonism between france-us isn't so bad.... ^_^

Why settle for Gnome xor KDE when you can have the best of both worlds ?
Novell just cut through the Gordian Knot that has been annoying me each time I installed Linux :
What desktop should I choose ?
Opening Yast/pieces of Netware and now aiming for the best desktop...It looks like Novell wants the leadership/to set the standards in Linux very badly....
Well, there is a lot of money at stake...in a world opening to open source....
Time is what you lost when you started reading/.'s stories.
Space is what you lost when you started downloading things.
Just common knowledge...no need fo a book to grasp that.
Wait ! I got it !
Money is what you lost when you bought the book when you could have just read my post.
=P
(beside comitment to their traditionnal line of proprietary products) is to indulge itself to Linux and Open Source.
That is, if they want to bring value to their Suse and Ximian Component...
So, I think we can expect more and more public moves towards Linux/Open source from Novell in the near future (they are trying their best to bring more companies to linux, aren't they ?).
the next big leap after flat screens,
if they manage to make them affordable and harmless to the long term for your vision.
Can't wait to work on a 3D desktop or to play Quake-like on these babies...
In france, we use comma as a decimal marker...
In the us, you use the period...
Well, I think neither are right or wrong but maybee we should make up another ponctuation symbol for the decimal marker as it would be measier to type lists of decimal numbers....
2.01, 3.14, 5.27.
2,01, 3,14, 5.27.
2#01, 3#14, 5#27.
Well, the third choice looks more logical...
though it'ld be a pain in the ass to create a new symbol and force people to use it...
We better stay the way we are...american...and french ^_^
The installation GUI looks way better than Suse6.2's from 5 years ago but...
It didn't set my sound card right : a soundblaster live ! I couldn't find a way to set up my ADSL connection I had no access to my 5 NTFS partitions, full of data... It's damn annoying...
Come on Guys...it's no use having plenty of free aps/games/great feature in the Linux distros if you spend days trying to make it work in the first place.
In windows, everything you need to set up is in the configuration panel. In KDE 3.1.9.... I don't say it's scattered all around the place..but I couldn't fix/find where to fix my adsl in more than 3 hours.
The first thing to develop is: the set up application (anaconda for Fedora, Yast for Suse...).
If it doesn't set your linux os cleanly on your Hd without failure...it's no use trying to add feature to the distros
I went to the sites you spoke of and it looks like you are right.
I'm downloading the dvd-iso for Fedora right now.
I'll install it on one of my partition (got to tidy a bit my hds) and I'll give it a try...
Thanks for the info.
I had Windows 95(BSOD every 2 days) for games and
Suse 6.2(stable but not user friendly) for work on 2 partitions for 2 years
I switched to WinXP (2 months between BSOD, games, good enough OS) but I will switch to Linux (it's free, it does the job, it's improving and I like Gnu/GPL) as soon as some requirements are met :
When Linux will be as user friendly as the present windows
When games will be released on the Linux platform,
When the few apps I really need and use everyday will be ported/have a clone on Linux
I fear that this is only going to happen when a majority of cmp-user turn to linux as well, so you might as well add the condition (for businesses)
When there is an good-enough clone of Office on Linux.
As for me....the difference between Windows and Linux is :
Windows is the present and the past (a thing we won't forget, it'll bring fond memory)
Linux is the future.

We mathematicians made sure that the games in the casino would steal the customers blind, well with a quite high probability anyway.
You can't win against maths (Any Teenager in any school knows that... ^_^).
So, feel free to play if you want to get poorer...
And feel free to cheat if you want to end up dead/in jail...

Most important question ever.....

Great definition !
I hope it helps....

I just love it and tab-browsing but there is still room for improvement:
A resume feature in the download manager would be a nice start...
