Can I have wire tap access to the Department of Justice's systems, 24/7 with remote access? You know, I just want to make sure that they're not doing anything that they shouldn't be.

Enjoy paying out the ass and waiting two weeks for your Lexus to have a new alternator installed by their "four star" service center, while it takes him $80 and two hours to fix his Pontiac on his own.
This is true, and I hadn't considered this. What if someone wants to use a Solaris package with Debian/Solaris? How will the package detect that certain dependancies have already been installed via apt?

Besides the kernel it looks like it also uses the Solaris userland. That would include common commands (ps, ftp, m4, etc.) as well as Solaris-specific commands (psrinfo, prtconf, etc.). Also Solaris libc, as well as some other libraries. It will be interesting to see how much of the "original" Solaris userland will need to be replaced with, or supplemented with GNU tools. Some of Solaris' default tools are pretty bare in functionality.
Apt and Solaris should be pretty cool, though Solaris has had BlastWave for a while, which works pretty similar to apt.
People don't want to switch because they think they need office. Simple as that.
And guess what? Some of them DO. Believe me, I'd love to move some of my small office clients to OpenOffice or StarOffice, but they require the calendar and scheduling functions of Outlook. Still, if Microsoft Office were less expensive, I wouldn't even be paying attention to the free alternatives.
"I can agree that Windows is a poor operating system because of all the patches and the fact that it is based off of DOS"
Is there some particular reason why everyone on this site still thinks that Windows 98 is Microsoft's most current offering? Mainstream Windows has not been DOS for years.
If a business screwed you royally ten years ago (I bought one of these boards without knowing any better), you might do business with them again on the slight chance that they may have reformed?
I'm not buying anything from PC Chips, ever. Anyone else remember when they were making 486 boards with fake L2 cache? Yes, FAKE CACHE. The cache chips were empty, and the board had a modified BIOS that reported whatever cache size the motherboard was jumpered for.
Screw this company, even if it has somehow evolved.

Yes, I am equating a fetus to an insect. Both are meaningless. Yes, the fetus has a potential to develop into an individual human life. Again, until it does, it is meaningless.
You're confusing application patching with system patching. Yeah, you have to reboot from system patches in Windows. You don't have to reboot from application patches, although some applications will unnecessarily prompt for a restart.
You'd have to restart too, if you built world and a new kernel.
This is a case of local government caught in a constant circle-jerk in an effort to become America's Little Europe. The general consensus among the Seattle elite is that "cars are evil." The Seattle mayor has even modified some city building restrictions to force developers to build apartment complexes with LESS available parking, in an effort to force citizens to use mass transit against their will.
Honestly though, Seattle already has an excellent transportation system in its buses. I was without a car for a year in Seattle, and was able to get everywhere I needed to go, on time and on the cheap, using the excellent bus system. The thing is, buses aren't glamorous. Light rail and monorail are. Also, adding additional buses is a snap, there's nothing to it. Spend a few million to add a handful of buses and additional routes, and you're done. However, that doesn't provide any "study groups" or "comittees" to line the pockets of local politician's friends for a year or two. Therefore, the bus system is ignored.
Seattle, as far as corruption goes, is pretty high up there IMO. The politicians pretend that nobody notices. I am a moderate liberal, but I must say that the typical Seattle liberal will go along with whatever crap these politicians put to them. This is how projects like the Seattle Monorail hold out for so long without producing anything tangible. People are willing to "wait a little longer" because, for whaver reason, they actually think something is going to get built. They never wanted to build a monorail in the first place, and I'm glad people finally realized it.
If the movie bombs in one region, they've just wasted money by releasing the movie simultaneously in thousands of other locations that will fail almost equally. By staggering the release times, if the movie generally fails, they may choose not to release it at all in a specific zone.

So, when you're in charge, what will you keep me drunk with?

There's xbill. If you get bored with that, try the heart-pounding action of xgalaga. If you get bored with that, I'm sorry. We've got nothing.

Why is the last picture in the article a photo of George Bush?
And Firefox also had an exploit that was almost identical to the IE exploit this article centers around. It was just fixed in 1.0.7.
