That's what I love about Linux and open source things. The people who develop things are willing to act Real and not like some big company who has to be politically correct about its errors and comments and sound like a bunch of lawyers. The comments are from real people who put them there to be read and used not to be like//this line adds 4 , but to be like// how can i make this line add 4 faster you code it. And with anyone and everyone able to see this code and program for it makes it so 4 will eventually come out faster.
This sounds like an outrage. First they give us standardize test that are subpar and very easy I might add. Then to make themselves look better they recall a learning tool. They are recalling those school issued calcs but what about all the personal ones, will they be banned next? What happens when they find out that the TI-89 can do calculus, will they ban those too? And sense when is it unfair to know how to use a calculator? Paper and pencil are so old School these days.
You have to remember that the market is controlled by the masses. The masses are the same people who buy things such as windows and cpus based solely on speed and appeal. To the average consumer a LCD looks sexier is lighter and all the ads for them claim that they are better and that you need one. For the average consumer though a LCD is perfect because it can be gotten reasonably cheap and most people aren't into gaming at high resolutions or even know what the refresh rate or anything else about there computer is. Because of all this the majority of people may buy LCD screens and thus CRT sales go down. The CRT will never die because of the market base it has is firm yet small relatively speaking. Companies like dell combo in a cheap computer with and LCD these days so it's all about advertising, ignorance and gullibility.
Just like with drugs. Say no To anything that looks like it could possible be bad. Who cares whos fault it is aurguing over it won't stop it. Just click no and tell your friends to click no. Really easy solution to a really common problem. And if anything does happen get a spyware remover like spybot.
And remember SAY NO TO BAD THINGS!
