OK, you say it's too bulky? Then we'll make a special version for you.
Here it is! Buy it! No, wait, not you or you...or you...
What kind of silliness is this? A crippled, stripped-down OS? Why not just make it Shareware. "Warning: P4 support will end in 3 Days. Buy upgrade now?"
And my boss complains when it takes me all day to set up a new Windows machine for a new employee. "Why is it taking you so long?" Windows makes me look bad.;-)
I got a lot of the employees moved to Linux at one point but they didn't like CVS for source management and moved back to VSS which, in turn, moved them back to Windows.
And every time you run 'windows update' you need to download 10M+ of updates. Every time you download a mp3...well, let's not go there.
I'm not saying you're wrong for complaining, I'm saying it's a moot point. Many, many programs are large nowadays and you need to learn how to use a download manager if you're still stuck on a modem.
Whenever you save a JPEG with ImageReady, or Photoshop's Save for Web plug-in, the word "Ducky" is written into the file's mime header. You can see this by opening the files into any text editor that is capable of displaying binary files.
It's about acceptance, not about opening the source.
Real is a company who has continually annoyed many customers (and potential customers) with a barrage of misleading links, advertisements and spy ware in the past. Regardless of the fact that the Linux "version" of Real Player did not contain the junkware, the fact still remains: Real has bad karma and opening up the code will not make end users more reluctant to use the software.
Making the software GPL does not help you instantly erase your past and judging from most of the comments here, many are still quite cynical in regards to Real Networks.
Are you more willing to accept Real now because they've GPL'd some code?
I disagree. They are already predicting the death of email due to spam & worms & other crap.
Hahahha...he said "the death of email". Please, next they'll say that toasters will die because you have to clean out the crumbs every once in a while. Who are these 'they' people anyway?

...we already had this and it was called Everclear.
HAHAH! Best blooper I've seen all day!
C'mon, it's just another useless invention. It hardly deserves attention.
No, he meant whine. A play on words, get it? Or is it buried under another window somewhere?

This is the hook snagging the consumer fish.
Amen.

Can I have some cheese with my whine?

Oh, now you tell me.

I set up an IMAP server, told the developers it was Oracle, told the boss they loved it, saved $15K and got a 10K raise in salary.
And then...I woke up.
Can I interest you in a tinfoil hat?
I was under the impression that by using Linux, I was, in a sense, testing Linux.
Whenever you save a JPEG with ImageReady, or Photoshop's Save for Web plug-in, the word "Ducky" is written into the file's mime header. You can see this by opening the files into any text editor that is capable of displaying binary files.
It's OK. Canadians are letting the government tax them into oblivion anyway. Give 'em 10 more years, they won't be around any more.
That's why we walk quietly and carry a big lart.
You took the words right out of my mouth. If you don't give them back I may have to charge you interest.
Must be a slow day when all of the news sites are covering a beta application. Leave the application announcements on freshmeat IMO.

I have no compunction but I did get conjunctivitis once...and it was REAL.
Woohoo! Monday morning pr0n! Nice butt, but what's funny?

OK, no, really, good to see that Slackware is still going strong. My first distribution...everybody sing! Memmories...do do de do...
I just saw that one in a.b.s.mp3.2000s
By "copy protected" do they mean that if my copies come in contact with the CD it won't catch some nasty STD (or CDTD)?
Yeesh, what'll they think up next.
I have it running on about 8 machines here on the LAN.
All of the machines' performance increased slightly, especially in the networking department.
