Hiden maketing idea 4 world monopoly

On: Windows XP Starter Edition Snubs P4, Athlon

I think MS would ofer Windows XP just to keep Linux away, but other parts of the world would ask the same offer. So doing this, users will dump the starter edition and install the proffessional ilegaly but MS won't have to justify (XP proffessional offers) to the rest of the world that is willing to pay. Smart move, but I rather pay the same price a XP pro would cost and get a 100% Linux hardware compatible system, with or without Linux.

I'd say most slashdot reades use Firefox!!!

On: Is Firefox 1.0 Less Stable than Firefox PR1.0?

I'd like to see some statistics about this, but I bet more than 50% of slashdot readers use Firefox, so It might not be that bad this thread for most readers.
