Ugh...I like the idea of a spell checker but I turned Firefox's off within a few hours. Have you ever tried pasting large amounts of code or XML into a slow spell checker? Not fun.
He took some (all?) of the profits in order to offset his personal cost starting Gentoo. The Gentoo Foundation and the developers all agreed to it because of everything he'd done. I think it's perfectly fine, myself. He lost thousands starting Gentoo.
I have an SL-C3000 and it's just an amazing machine. It's fast and responsive, has a boat load of built-in space for installing apps and keeping other files on it, it works great as a music player (esp. with the remote), and its keyboard is much nicer than the one on the SL-5500 (which I had before). The screen is great (although hard to see in sunlight, I hear the 6000's is better in this regard) and the swivel is just cool.
If you really want a Linux box in the palm of your hard that still is the size of a (slightly large) PDA, check out the C3000. And OpenZaurus just released a beta for it. It's got lots of problems, but this is the first release.
...when there are so many good Open Source and, mor important, FREE programs out there. I use DSPAM, which works like a charm. It catches my spam far better than the crap we have at work, learns on its own, and is a very powerful system. After a little while of using it, it was catching nearly all of my spam and now I get < 1 spam mail a week in my inbox of that. It's even better than than gmail's spam protection (although not by much).
And I run my own domain, my own mail server, and my own website.
As long as it's Firefox based and they *fix gmail's cutting off of messages in Firefox*. Seriously, this is getting on my nerves. Works fine in IE, but gmail chokes in Firefox. This didn't happen a few weeks ago...
I have a FAQ about this exact thing for this exact reason on my website.
From the FAQ:
The PHP Manual says not to use PHP and Apache2 in production. This is because of multi-threading issues. Some PHP libraries are not thread-safe and therefore can crash PHP. These errors are often not seen by smaller or low-traffic sites as they are due to race conditions in the libraries. If you want to use Apache2 with PHP and not have it crash, the recommendation is to use Apache2's prefork mode.
Around a lot longer? It was started a few years ago (or less). Gentoo is much older than that. OpenZaurus only recently switched to OE. (OZ3.5.1)
Re:So why is Gentoo the right choice for this?

Embedded Gentoo?

I wouldn't say it's more suited, but people fail to realize that gentoo *can* use precompiled packages as well.
The reason I use Gentoo is not just because it compiles for my system, but because I like how it lays things out and its ease and flexibility of configuration.
It should be fairly simple to set up a "host" system with a cross-compiler to make binary packages for the embedded devices to download.
Wait a minute...I thought patents were supposed to protect people from competition while they *used* the patent for a little while. Aren't patents baseless unless the company can show that they're actually making a product from it?
To all of the people who voted for Kerry: Thank you, you've done your duty. To all who support Kerry but didn't vote: you're worse than Bush.
To the republican party: you're assholes. You twist the truth and push your falsities as truth. You control Fox News and other media outlets and use them to shove your agenda down the throats of their viewers as bipartisan news. You're despicable.
Fox News needs to be taken out. George Bush should be sent into the wilderness with only hits wits to survive.
Not only did George Bush win, the House and Senate are Republican controlled. Welcome to hell.
I am disappointed in the United States people on this day. When did we become a populace of morons?
I swear that must have been made up after everyone was calling it CGI. I remember a time when CG was correct and it was assumed that "CGI" was an incorrect combination of SGI (who made the graphics workstations) and CG.
I loved your Star Wars films comparison, it's nice to have a definitive list. I'm looking forward to seeing the differences in episodes V and VI.
However, every time you refer to computer graphics (CG) as CGI, I cringe. CGI stands for Common Gateway Interface and is a way of running scripts on web servers. It has nothing to do with Computer Graphics. Please, for my sanity and others, use CG and not CGI when referring to Computer Graphics.
And we'd be like a hive-mind. Faster communication means less individuality. Look at what the TV, telephone, and Internet have done to cultural diverity.

You get the gold star today. That was just too perfect.

Or it could be that they're trying to *turn* a corner and do things right.
Of course, we all know that will never happen.

Now *that* is an apt analogy.
