  1. Good news for "small" guys! on Superman 'Too Big' for the Big Screen · · Score: 1

    Well I'm small. So does that mean I can get the part of Superman? - PCon

  2. Doubt it on Apple Backing Away From FireWire · · Score: 2, Insightful

    If they are backing of firewire....Why do they put Firewire 800 on their machines?

  3. Nice on Apple Updates iPod · · Score: 1

    Seems like to me that they are gradually going get rid of the mono screen altogether....Which would be cool. I am glad Apple keeps making the iPod (no matter which flavor you choose) more and more affordable.

  4. Re:Interesting on Study Finds Windows More Secure Than Linux · · Score: 1
    And furthermore this study, no matter what the results are, is inaccurate? I mean what are they comparing it to? Do they mean a Linux server set up with root running everything and the user connecting as root all the time?

    Plain and simple, a server is as secure as the administrator makes it. If the administrator has a half a brain, it'll be secure. If you have a meat head beind the helm, expect to get hacked. Plain and simple.

  5. Interesting on Study Finds Windows More Secure Than Linux · · Score: 1
    Yeah, I would like to see this full study. I think reporting this was kind of premature. But it probably made all the Windows and Linux supporters nuts.

    My whole reason for choosing any *nix variant vs. Windows....THE PRICE. I am sorry, but I am not a rich guy. If I want to have my own webserver from home, or even have a server that I can mess practice with, I have to shell out $600 for Windows 2003. Why do that, when I can shell out....$0.00 for a *nix variant? Nah, I'll pass thank you. IMHO, if MS wants more people to be pro MS Server. Maybe offer a community version of it? Or an affordable version of it? ($20 a month or lower?)

    Nevertheless, I am interested in looking at the study. When it gets realeased.
