/g/ was actually working on that very concept. They wanted to reverse engineer that system and run Gentoo in it. The coder behind that is a genius programmer. I never knew that JavaScript could do so much.
I have had someone comment on my blog about this very subject, they had problems getting a second monitor to work on their machine, and I have heard other people say that when they did get a second monitor working, the windows were not decorated and they had to type metacity & in a terminal to get that to work. I thought it was pretty easy to get dual monitors working, but maybe not. Surely this is something that should be fixed.
I hated the speed of the Ubuntu system and I switched over to a KDE 4.6 / Gnome 2.32 Gentoo system. I have not looked back since. But yes, to reply to the parent comment above, yes there are issues with dual monitor support in Ubuntu 11.04, hopefully this can be resolved soon considering the popularity of dual monitors nowadays.
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/661450 This is a link to the bug report concerning dual monitor support in Ubuntu. The comment I got was concerning zaphod mode, I am not sure what that is but it is something that needs fixing.
I used Redhat 6.2 as an alternative to Windows `98 and I was astounded how much better it worked compared to the aforementioned Windows POS that was BSOD and virus prone. Then I moved on to Mandrake 9.2 and then Mandrake 10. The ATI drivers included with linux gave me slightly higher resolutions and color depths than the Windows drivers on my Dell Optiplex machine. Of course I use Ubuntu now, but when FreeBSD has proper support for the integrated graphics in the i3 CPU then I will be moving to that OS.
All I can say after that though is thank god for Linux.
This is an example of self guided bullets. The technology might not be around yet but the promise is there. Apparently there is a US Patent on the tech: http://www.freepatentsonline.com/5788178.html. Interesting.
Windows 8 does apparently have support for mounting ISO images, with that it will be even easier to use. http://www.bejiitaswrath.com/?p=1257. This means you will not need any deamon tools or Alcohol 100% or anything like that to mount those images. Windows 7 should have had that feature.
This sounds like a good way to get somewhere fast, but what about slowing down? The Daedalus probe was to shoot past Barnards star and send out probes to examine the planet, but the actual craft would just keep on going into deep space maybe forever. But if we want to ever see the planets orbiting distant stars then we need to move away from chemical rockets and into more exotic forms of propulsion. Sure we may not have Star Trek Warp Drive, but we can at least send the V,Ger probe into space and make our mark on the universe. Maybe we could catch up with the Voyager probe and bring it back to Earth.
Some nutcases claim that the Earth is hollow and there are holes at the poles leading to the hollow Earth. I hope this does not fuel the fires of conspiracy theories. But this will give us a proper insight into the Earth`s interior.
Linux has the problems with printer drivers on the desktop, I have had that problem, but for servers it is extremely stable and reliable, not to forget more secure as long as the security people know what they are doing. Modern Linux systems are quite easy to use on the desktop with the Gnome desktop, UNIX and it's descendant Linux are designed for running as a server operating system and it deserves a chance as a business` choice over the Redmond alternative.
What about the pornographic lyrics in the music their children listen to, with artists like Rhianna, lady gaga and others singing about fucking girls faces, gang bangs, and BSDM themes that are prevalent in modern music. That is wrong, but they let their kids listen to that stuff all the time on their Ipods.
The OpenBSD source as is known is the best for security as everything is screened and checked, this would have been discovered in that process. Microsoft, who checks their source? They could have any backdoors installed and how would you know? The Open Source way is the best way.
Is the iframe tag even compatible with XHTML 1.0? Who would use that when you could use the object tag? The object tag works better and is a little more up to date.
Windows is used everywhere, but so is Ubuntu nowadays, some people just do not know how to secure Linux either and When I used Ubuntu, you could install debs from a website just by clicking and clicking install!
The labour government is facing defeat in the next election. Do not fear them their Hit Points are low. They are proposing the internet filter and will protect us from the evils of child pornography/internet freedom and will make the net safe for everyone. So they say.

I think if they open sources parts of the browser to the community they would make some progress fixing it but that does not fix the problems with the main OS. Be it Windows 2000 or XP.
Btw, I use Suse 9.1 professional, it runs perfectly on a Pentium II and is faster than the bloated Windows XP operating system. That has way too many bugs. I have lost count of how many times it has locked and and corrupted files. And they claim it is more stable and secure than Linux. I have had a Mandrake 10 box running for 52 days straight without missing a beat. Some machines I have heard of personally have run for two years. Try that you Windows xP fanboys.
It is so easy to put malware on a Windows machine. I do not know how they will fix it.
Windows Longhorn is supposed to fix the problem, but if the system directories where readable & writable only by the Administrator, like with Debian, then it would be more secure.
You only need to put a trojan in a fake download and you can get the Windows users easily. They are so stupid, they click and download any cool software wherever from. They are so stupid. Windows needs Linux styled security, since the users of Windows cannot be trusted to look after the security of their own machines.
I have been using Windows XP and I am very annoyed with how it manages to get viruses as soon as you have finished with the virus scanner.
You finish the scan and 10 minutes on the net later you shut down the browser and scan the machine again and you have more spyware and trojans on it. And the stupidity of the users who install the stupid browser addons and toolbars that carry trojan horses and other bullshit. The main reason for Windows being infected with all this crap is the stupidty of the users who use it.
They really should fix the bugs in the OS's first.
I agree with improving Google search results, I liken it to my own site, I take notice of what people search for to come to my site and arrange content to allow people to find what they need quickly.
I think they should have more actual useful links and less price comparison links at the top of the page. That would be more helpful.
I prefer to use an encrypted file on my machine containing my passwords.
2048 bit encryption will keep out all but the most determined hacker. All you need is a very strong passcode for the password vault.

No one speaks out about that as much as this.
The OpenBSD source as is known is the best for security as everything is screened and checked, this would have been discovered in that process. Microsoft, who checks their source? They could have any backdoors installed and how would you know? The Open Source way is the best way.
Yes, but that does not seem to be as newsworthy as the Wikileaks guy. Strange world we live in today.
If you had a General Products Hull http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_Products_(Larry_Niven) then that would: not pose a problem.
Surely not, how would they even think of putting this in a game these days?

This is better.

Just imagine this, a fully streamlined kernel running on a phone, with updates to the kernel over the wireless network. Just imagine that.
This would be better than running Windows CE in my opinion.
I cannot wait, but does this mean I can run xmatrix on a mobile? Just imagine that.
