  1. Re:And how's that different than Linux? on Windows Nearly Ready For Desktop Use · · Score: 1

    They can't GPL their drivers though. ATI (and nVidia also) are locked into NDAs with other companies.

    They're on their own for development.

  2. Enough Already! on Monkeys Don't Like Macs · · Score: 3, Funny

    Whatever happened to the Stuff that matters part of the /. tagline?

    I think we have enough April Fools jokes to last us the year.

  3. Going the way of Free Speech on The Empires Strike Back · · Score: 1

    I think the internet is going the way of free speech. You'll need a little guide to see if you are "allowed" to say something or do something. That's not to say it won't be back in all it's glory but right now who owns the hardware and fibres that run the 'net?

  4. In other news... on You Might Be a Microsoft Patent Infringer · · Score: 4, Funny

    "Microsoft Patents 1, 0"

  5. Re:This better not be the end on Ten Security Bulletins From Microsoft · · Score: 1

    This sci-fi essay is what I was referring to. The worm only kills the host after compromising a set number of other hosts. It would be great to see but it would ultimately give incredible ammunition to TCPA supporters.

  6. Worth ditching SQL? on An Alternative to SQL? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Any language is going to have quirks and inconsistencies between dialects.
    SQL has worked so far but if Tutorial D really is better then bring it on.

    I've gotten over SQL the "short commings" though

  7. A Better Idea on Saitek Maestro Travel Chess Computer Review · · Score: 1

    I'll bet not many of these are sold
    Wouldn't you rather have a palm top with a chess game?
    Most cheap pdas are under $100 and they aren't just for chess.

  8. This better not be the end on Ten Security Bulletins From Microsoft · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Seriously, I hope that Microsoft gets their act together before too long.

    I'm a little worried about the possibility of a "final" windows exploit that quickly and without warning kills every MS box it touches.
    All these vulnerabilities are a bit disheartening.

    Either Microsoft is really combing over their programs for errors or they are in trouble
    Kind of makes me happy that I only rely on free/open source programs
