From TFA:
" The Windows operating system imposes one of the primary bottlenecks at this speed. As one network administrator says, "When we want to stress test our network, we use Linux, not Microsoft." His experience is that contention and file-system-overhead issues within Windows limits 1 GE desktop links to 1.25 Mbps. Even a quad-processor server peaks at 250 to 300 Mbps, with the processor at 100% usage."
So if we cant use the extra bandwidth then whats the point of having it. You can already get 100 Mbps dedicated from a switch to the desktop with old technology
They'll never totally knock M$ out

once this is complete M$ will include it in IE7 + their own proprietry plugins that will render websites unviewable without IE7
The problem isnt with all patents. The problem is with web patents. Whats next, Mars patents? If NASA wants to use bolts on Mars then they have to pay me because I have the Mars patent on bolts. If you dont already have a patent accepting donations over the phone or in another fashion then why should you have a patent on accepting them over the net?
In so many countries there are people who cant access certain content (especially political) even if they are willing to pay for it and yet these idiots think that they have some god given right to streaming porn and warez, come on!

If we didnt, do you think we would be whinging every day about it not being open source?
Actually we have it arse backwards
does this mean donations will be tax deductible?
