  1. Re:Seriously... Why would you use this? on GIMP 2.2 Released · · Score: 1

    there are other tools that produces good graphics, what passes my head is why people are so very stuck with GIMP. i mean it has a cluttered interface and other problems, so why stick to it?!

  2. more power to FOSS on Linux To Ring Up $35B By 2008 · · Score: 2, Funny

    i presume most of this is from donations because the ISO's can be downloaded free. so if linux is turning into a cash cow just by being a free software, then think how much it would have made by being a commercial one... ha! ha! got ya... it would have made quite less as its appreciation comes from its FOSS tag, right?! now that's what i call paying for what you like and not what your vendor insists... more power to FOSS.

  22. Re:I don't get it... on AOL Plans A Standalone Browser · · Score: 1

    most probably it will be light-weight and will not clog the machines to the neck, like previous AOL stuff used to do. as it has been mentioned, the browser will be IE dependent, which means the HTML etc deciphering part will be from the IE code, thus it will taken even less time to load (unlike FF or netscape). what i can't understand is what happens to the linux users (an most offices use linux)!!!
