What's all this then? Developers need money to produce quality products?!? Richard Stallman would be rolling in his grave... Once he dies and gets to his grave... err... yes.
That's funny... I could say the same thing about linux!
bloat - yea, my windows install still fits onto a single CD which is more then most linux distros can say. its user interfaces - many, and each one worse then the one before. its administrative tools - which you just have to find before being able to use, not to mention having to memorize sequences of random letters and numbers for program names. its functionality - which is non-existent unless you dedicate your life to your OS, believe it or not, some of us actually use our computer to get work done.
Sorry, but if you're going to bad mouth windows at least pick arguments which can't be applied to anything else out there. Bloat, user interface and administrative tools are not some of windows weaknesses. As for functionality, I can still do more things in less amount of time on my windows box then on my linux. That tells me something.

ell besides the points that a few others have pointed out there is another problem with this um... problem.
Ok, so we have: 1 pirate - he takes everything 2 pirates - 2nd takes everything, 1st gets nothing 3 pirates - now we have a problem and here's why... Now if pirate 3 gives 1 coin to pirate 1 then the plan obviously works. However, what if pirate 3 takes it all for himself? There is no guarantee that pirate 1 will vote against the plan, since pirate 1 knows he's not getting a thing even if pirate 3 is killed.
So at this point you have to wonder, will pirate 1 vote yes and give all the money to pirate 3, or will he vote no and give all the money to pirate 2. So because of this the problem as it is incomplete. We need another limiting factor such as the pirates would rather kill as much as possible, or they would rather spare the lives of others or something along those lines.
Unfortunately many people aren't able to use Usenet because of the bandwidth limits, and paying $10 for 5GB/month (newsgroups.com) kinda defeats the purpose. As for the free stuff from ISP, I'm limited to 1 GB per month and need some of that for actually posting to and reading programming groups.

As the astronauts who walked on the moon found out
There were astronauts on the moon? That's news to me... Last I checked they were in earth's orbit a few hours before the "landing".
See, this is why I live at home with my mommy and daddy...
Oh wait... I shouldn't have said that.
Oh, but I do...
I think their server overheated...
... show him the Google logo - it'll blow his mind!
Btw, do you think if we put a bag of ice on his head he'll run faster?
I think it only works if it's one or the other - both together cancel themselves out.
Better luck next life time!
No, actually that was the case before this e-mail...
A keystroke-recording device? Oh please... Ever heard of super glue in the PS2 port?
Problem solved.

That was a bit before the past 25 years :)
It's not a bug... it's a feature.

"Internal Server Error" ???

No don't beat us!!!
Err... that is what those spammers would say. Those horrible, horrible people!
P.S. Who here wants a Rolex?
Funny how this post was moderated 'Interesting'... You know what would've been even more interesting? Giving us the answer!

I haven't used the free version for over 2 years now, but your evidence of this is... what?
