You decide to try it. If you don't tell anyone you have no risk of upsetting your customers or suppliers.
most corporations have onsite representatives from various vendors for support and so this doesn't work in most cases. infact it's one of the reasons why vendors have support onsite - to know the internals of their clients.
So as Linux pushes towards standardization effectively the open-ness is still there and available to you but is marginalized in the sense that once you make changes then you aren't standard anymore.
I don't know what "open-ness" are you talking about. First of all open source isn't supposed to be open in that sense. And even if you want that kind of open ness if your changes apply to a lot of users they can always be incorporated in the standard distribution. If they are very specific then you are by yourself anyway. No "microsoft" can help you there. With open source atleast you can chang e the code yourself !!
Ever since 2000, everytime anybody invests any significant amount into anything at all, people start proclaiming "Bubble!!!"
it's kinda like
day 1 - u'll become sick
day 2 - u'll become sick

day 1000 - u'll become sick

one fine day you become sick and ur friend goes - "i told ya"
2. Nobody else can hear the sound on your earphones anyway.
well.. duh! My point being movie as opposed to music is a group activity and ipod/mobile like devices aren't as useful for that unless you change your viewing habits.
why do we have to take this to the oceans if you want to solidify the CO2. plants also convert CO2 into solid carbon and i don't see much difference between coral reefs and plants that way. The problem is more in the atmosphere anyway. I'm guessing the CO2 coral reefs would get is probably already dissolved in water not the CO2 someone's truck just emitted.
GPL's philosophy is very different from BSD. Code under BSD license can be used in a closed source app for example. If GPL had to be changed into BSD, there wouldn't have been two such licenses in the first place. The idea here is to just improve upon or fix shortcomings of current GPL.
I don't know which one is "right". One thing is for sure - evolution favors karmawhores on slashdot. I mean what did the parent say which hasn't been said before and how is it relevant to the article.
The mouse supports a conventional grip and a grip with both hands. I already hate lifting a hand off of the keyboard, now I've to life both hands to use the mouse. That's bound to be annoying. Instead I'll continue doing what I do currently - I keep changing the hand I use for mouse after every few days. Works fine for me. No RSIs after doing this for 4 yrs now with about 8-10 hrs of daily computer use.

now you won't have to wait for an hour to know who's the father ;)
they probably made engineers the scapegoats and might be looking to hire lawyers instead
It must have been students like you because of whom the blogs were taken down.
That's because it's quality vs. quantity.

FTA "Microsoft's philosophy is to only share code where it makes sense, with a specific goal in mind." ...
What's the "specific goal"? anyone? anyone
Microsoft software isn't all that closed. There are always open holes to exploit.

is that movie/ipod-likes screens are too small - 1. strain on eyes and 2. not many people can watch together
Women have balls ...

slashdotters don't have women at their workplaces anyway ;) and you being a slashdotter don't know enough about women to make that claim

My parents use it, my grandmother runs Fedora, and I convert others on a daily basis.

Wow you must all be living in your great grand parents' basement
