It would seem appropriate at this time to look back to see how America has changed, specifically in its relationship with other countries.
Actually, in Europe you are now viewed as a bit of a bully. We do sympathize with you for the 911 attack, and we supported you in Afganisthan, but your tendency to just act as a bully in foreign relations has quite taken away the goodwill you got after 911.
The issues that currently makes you unpopular is the boycotting of the Kyoto agreement, the refusal to acknowledge the international war crimes tribunal (but you still want to act the worlds cop..), the (probable) attacking of Iraq, and the massive backing of Israel.
We are still allies, and we really want to still be friends, but your administration need to wake up and see that there are other nations in this world too.
You can't really compare those bombings in a war with a terrorist act in peacetime. While all are tragedies the terrorist act is in a way more shocking because people are so unprepared for a sudden attack of this kind. In a war people (sort of) expects tragedies to happen.
However, you are probably right when implying that the TV coverage would be less if people of another nationality were killed. I would bet that if this had happened in Kuala Lumpur a year ago, the commentaries on TV would be more like 'One year ago 3.500 people were killed in Kuala Lumpur. Now, over to George with the lastest results from Premier League'!
So then there is no reason to release on DVD/VHS. That would dramatically limit the availability of pirated movies to a few cam-in-cinema copies and stolen reels.
The cinema market may be booming but what about the VHS/DVD market? This is where the piracy is the worst,
While I enjoy the free piracy of movies on the net, I don't pretend that I have a moral rigth to pirate it. I am just a greedy swine that like to get stuff for free.
We have two IBM Netfinity servers that use IBM ServerRAID 3L. The cards are not that great as they only have 4 MB of cache, but they run reliably under 2.4.13.
The drivers are maintained in the kernel, so there is now patching or downloading of drivers.
I think IBM has other models that come with more cache, so you could try calling them.
Thats something I would like to know too. This is useless if we can't see how the tests were conducted. I don't want to show this to my boss (who wants a NT server), if I can't back it up!
You missed the third kind. Those of us who are self-educated. We found out the hard way how things work in the real world. Perhaps not too economic, but it is certainly instructive.
Well, if these posts are what people get when they are negative to Linux then its easy to agree.
Seriously, you just have to look in the Linux newsgroups to see that most users have something more between the ears than those posters. But, one bad apple can the whole basket look unedible.

Take care.

I have used a Mylex adapter for a quite busy web- and mailserver for 1,5 years. It works very well.
Is that illegal?
Stampede is also BSD-style.
Slackwares config-system (do it yourself in BSD-style) is one of the main reasons I use Slackware on all our servers.
