prompt?? 2 years to plug the hole they left in their code is prompt, geeee that sure looks like a double standard...its ok for others to know of a bug and not patch it overnite if not within the hour, but ms is pure evil if they do the same...
...so?
MS fixed the flaw in their browser, and others left it in...and this was MS's fault in what way??? Since when is it MS's duty to tell other software houses what to do?? Slashdotters have moaned about MS forcing their ways on others, but now if they don't/didn't, its a bad thing too...(so much for the ms-hater bandwagon opinions huh)
The metaphor was; They would feel the effect of their old "pirating" defiance of the past.(the old butterfly thing...)
I don't agree with the disk cost, so I don't buy cd's, I buy the $6 dvd's off the rental shops (good movies and nothing wrong with the disk), don't rent, and have been to the theatre three times in five years ($9 a ticket is too much when a popcorn and coke are $10 alone), twice while out of town and friends took me, once to see LOTR on the big screen (ok I did buy 3 dvd's, the trilogy...) Boycot them, that is where it hurts them most...but don't steal to make a point.
If it wasn't for the nature of man to steal, banks wouldn't need vaults, so if someone is trying to secure something of value, don't they have a right to protect THEIR property as long as nobody is harmed? (those convicted of stealing the movies are criminals, and not 'harmed', but they are forced into the range of punitive resolutions prescribed by law; cash, property, and detainment . None 'harm' but are payment that make it a noneconomical method to gain assetts)
soon, they will deliver the anal probes...

thats right, that satelite dish that keeps popping outa your butt was left there by a robotic nurse/overlord...
The movie is released to theatres and the same day, people are downloading a bootleg copy, and they want all to believe the act is not THEFT...
If you acquire a movie that is still in the theatre and not released on vhs or dvd, you are stealing.
How hard is it to understand. Try all you want to validate your being a thief...go ahead, and compound your mental flaws by telling us all some lies about how it is ok to steal from people...
Now it's 15 years later, and people are swapping your I.P., which you sell to make a living, and you aren't selling it because so many are swapping it for free...now tell your kids about how you used to be a part of the group that caused them to go without supper that night, while the repo man is towing the car away...all because you thought stealing was "ok" 15 years ago...
... when will someone bash ms on this subject...
we are waiting to see something like this---
"...i installed ms os and couldnt get it to work proper (i never RTFM with ms stuff, I only RTFM if it is linux related)"
linux, HAH
WTF makes anyone think that if they cant use windows now, tey will be able to cfg linux for thir use when the laptop arrives!?!?!??!?!
Slap a copy of XP on it, open office, open cd, and set the language for their area and let the linux ms-hate-group stfu for once
so the one that someone else desides, is linux....
companies deside every day if they want to risk producing software for linux, just to come to the conclusion that the users wouldnt have a freaking clue how to manualy edit the files needed to tell the compiler how to treat the installation of the various parts....if they even had a clue what a compiler was...
you work for free
you charge nothing for support
your time an the time used to aquire the knowledge needed to administrate andinstall linux was at a ZERO cost....
linux has a cost, if one can push real hard with both hands, the head may just pop out of their ass to see the light...
support
ability of a non-IT person to be able to install it and configure it to be useful
the support
the games consumers want to play on the computer being COMPATIBLE
software designed for their needs
linux will never be on top until it can be installed and usable by the average consumer, until then, it will be a toy for the nerds to harp about it being better (delusional)

moron not know head from ass
moron not think that user be dumb and not know how to make code run
moron think normal `puter user know how to set up linux
moron not think much with head in arse
moron wishes he had thunk harder now...
I imply that ALL os's will have a cost. but if you want I will be glad to put you to work for $0/hour...
