  11. Predictions... on Has The "Technology Bounceback" Begun? · · Score: 4, Insightful

    According to my Cisco teacher the tech industry experiences and up and down pattern about every ten years. First there was PC, and then the Dot Com bubble each followed by a period of less investment but public confidence in the technology. I predict there will be another boom in high tech possibly in Free/Open software. Which will (like the PC and Web boom before them) create a public confidence in Open Source even if investment drops. So you will lose the battle but win the war.

  18. Re:This guy is right. Listen to him. on How Can I Trust Firefox? · · Score: 1

    I think one point he made was good was that it took a while to install "trusted programs". Also on a side note I'm still having some rendering issues with Firefox but a great deal were resolved in 1.0 though some apps don't like the fact that Firefox is my default browser and insist on using IE

  19. Someone doesn't trust Microsoft... on How Can I Trust Firefox? · · Score: 1
