You are sure it is 'snappy'? I bet 13.10 would be buggy as hell, and breaks lots of compatibility.
They want the world become their beta tester before LTS.
It is most supported distro from commercial vendors, e.g. Steam. They'll choose to compatible with Ubuntu first before everything else.
And it has a large community to ask for support & help. For other unpopular distros, you maybe on your own.
They are simply exaggerating the figures. Even for editing HD content I'd convert the video into motion JPEG or huffyuv format which is still losslessly compressed. Who will editing the video in its uncompressed form?
Actually some anamorphic DVD movies (480i) upscaled to 1080p are still very watchable from my 46" Sony LCDTV. I'll give it about 70% of regular bluray 'feeling'.
Some DVD players are doing poor job of upscaling through HDMI. So I just send the raw 480i HDMI signal to LCDTV directly and add little edge enhancement settings and it looks quite good.
How often you see a Samsung printer hanging around in office?
And you need someone come to your office to exploit its snmp backdoor, I'd assume no one will assign their printer with a public internet IP. Maybe add a firewall / switch ACL to block it before the printer LAN port will do...
looks like they are turning to a more open attitude to other platforms now, instead of WinPhone only.
Next step maybe going multi-platform (Android phone?)
Am I the only one who like this YouTube app?
I have tried the android's honeycomb native YouTube app too, but I found iPad's YouTube app is much faster, responsive and smooth for casual browsing.
The mobile web is slow to loading all the UI's before starting the video...and iPad's safari is never a fast browser anyway.
If I must required to upgrade to IOS6, I'll try to jailbreak it, then find a way to install this.app by copy the binary from IOS5.x....
I remember that symbian was still had No.1 market share at that time, it was his "burning platform" memo cause the osborne effect and that whole thing going downhill. If they choose to go with Android, they can easily beat Samsung with Nokia's loyal user base and superior hardware (like Carl Zeiss lens...)
it is a very common situation, esp. if your profession is very specific, you may meet this boss again in the new job somehow (maybe this ex-boss will be your client, vendor, partners, or even your boss again!)
You are lucky to have such a good ex-boss, but not everyone is so lucky...
Sometimes we are quitting the job due to conflict or different opinions with the boss, I don't think they will do the same when they get HR calls for reference check.
actually the chromium builds are all located here:
http://chromium-build.appspot.com/p/chromium/console
but i think it is too technical for average users to know how to use it and d/l stuff from there...Maybe that's what Google wants you to go back to d/l chrome instead?
last time i checked their WINE appdb (0.9? 1.0?), even Office 2003 is not supported, so there is a great progress already. But I'd still prefer to run under VMware for 100% compatibility.
...but this does not stop gaming companies to write the linux version of their popular games in order to adapt the change.
This may become the Year of Linux Gaming Desktop!!
Sony always likes to create something new from others, they called it "i.Link" rather than Firewire/IEEE1394...though it is compatible with the original spec.
I have a similar case in my past job, a stupid user install a small 4-port hub and plug-in 2 PCs which belongs to different subnet, which caused the traffic of 2 subnets pass through....and our novell netware server start showing errors about received traffic coming from a wrong interface...
It took us whole morning to find out where the crazy hub is located from the whole building. It is really hard to avoid ordinary users to install their own little hubs under their desk unless there is some kind of company policy in enforcement.

So that means no Android phones in use in Iran? Or they just use the phones in offline mode? ;)
When i saw the big Amazon icon at the Unity taskbar after install 12.10, I know it's time for me to leave Ubuntu...

and the best of all...we have Godzilla!

Nope, everyone knows it is root/alpine ;)
it still make sense. Because it is not just call a "planet" but a "rogue planet". As Pluto is now a "dwarf planet" (with modifier)

Because it is made in USA...that added up the cost...

How about: is pluto a binary dwarf planet?
