You have a long way to go. Clipart is the least of your problems: there is always images.google.com. I never really used MS Office much. I used Novel, and then Corel Office. When I moved to Linux I picked you up OO.org. You meet most of my tasks, and I have never had to open MS Word due to a a lack of yours. However, you are lacking a lot of useful features. Please copy features from Wordperfect. I would love a grammar checker as useful as the one in Wordperfect.
And I hear you don't have native SVG support? What's up with that?
They seem to be talking about these guys: http://www.telltalegames.com/samandmax . Can't say I've heard of them before. But cool. The link is already slashdotted.
Let me just say this Bill Hilf has an internet persona of an assole. I hope he's a better person in "real life". But his comments seem to always have some overtone against what his official title should stand for. It's one thing to be against open source:that's one decision. But it is total rubbish to be in a team called under the title of an Open Source lab and always be spewing these rubbish sprinkled with some truths.
Everytime a Linux article comes up, out comes loads of people who barely use Linux to its fulliest, or at least seems so by their comments. Yet they are more than happy to public bash it on problems that maybe never existed, or no longer. Exist. I use Linux as my primary operating system, and I know for a fact that at least 80% of the common complaints are pure horse manure. You guys can make a guy ashamed to call himself a geek. If Windows is your thing, then go right ahead, but leave the penguin in peace.
Poor example...if you setup Linux for your parents, assuming they don't do much on their computer that is...it would be better than Windows...you could ssh in to fix what ever few problems they get...and they would have no worm/virus problems. And frankly, I dobut they would notice the difference if done well.

This has been announced before.
Then you just don't get it.
Sweet detective work dude.
Darn. This should be a feature by now anyways.
You can open .pdf files in Open Office?? Can they be edited?
You Americans and your lawsuits. What will you sue for next?

Thank you.
That is not really support, that is setup.

Even I know that this is a dupe.
I don't think I would buy a PS3 for myself unless it was going cure someone I knew of an ailment
I suspect the surgeon general disagrees with your comment.
What ever the administration in power at the time see's fit. You really have no say in this matter.
Till the secret, masked police come knocking I suppose.
Maybe the Brits are going for a live action sequel. Have no fear.
However, I almost expect a disliek of Windows here...on technical merits alone.

It is only in American bundles.
Go to eBay, buy yourself a cheap video card.
I stoped approximately 95% of the unsolicited calls I used to receive. If only there was as an effictive "Do Not Mass Email" list.
Here, here!
Ahh. I remeber that screen saver..circa FC2..good times.
Dude, not sure if I understand your post, but I'm loving your sig.
So do the wikipedia guys equate no information with freedom of information?
