At worst they will see it and say "1.0? My browser is already 6.0", which is the opposite effect.

This is brings out one of the greatest aspects of open source...they don't make something 1.0 until it really is a working version. Sure, closed source versions work and are generally higher quality than a non-1.0 open source project, but then they release 2.0, 3.0, 4.0 as if doling out candy on halloween. I don't know where I'm going with this, exactly, but I guess I just get a little peeved that users really will think version 999.0 of some closed source app is so much better than 1.0 of an open one.

Which IDE do you use for writing machine code? I didn't realize that I've been cheating my whole life using standard libraries, and I'd like to set it straight by writing everything from scratch.

This just in! "Hello world" has 0 bugs per three lines of code!

3 lines! That's an outrage...
perl -e 'print "hello, world";'

Personally, I'd rather have intelligent discussion about the strong and weak points of various OS/software/languages/etc. here than stupid name calling.
