Not all computers can to boot off CD, some only boot off the floppy. Like ones at my school. --- What subliminalmessage? Generated by SlashdotRndSig via GreaseMonkey
I've got an old laptop that doesn't have a USB port, and a few of my other computers don't have them either, some of the computers at my school either don't have ports or (for the newer ones) can't recognize USB drives correctly without a few reboots, and if there's no convenient USB port on the front you have to turn it around and look at the ports on the back to find it. Anyways, floppys are great for "rescue" disks if you can't get into the BIOS (passworded, can't flash it, whatever). I don't think you can boot off USB.
There are so many things you can't do with USB, especially if you work with older computers or organizations that refuse to upgrade (It was good in 1995, it's good now!) --- (_/) (O.o) This is Bunny. Please help him (> <) spread and take over the world. Generated by SlashdotRndSig via GreaseMonkey

How much does a good healthy meal with vegetables cost vs. McDonald's. You do the math.
It's actually a lot cheaper, McDonald's is just quicker. I'd do the math now, but I don't have the last grocery reciept with me. --- "I hate quotations." - Ralph Waldo Emerson Generated by SlashdotRndSig via GreaseMonkey
I went to Philmont (a scout camp) a few years ago. By the way, it isn't one of those sissy scout camps, this is real hike-60-miles-with-nothing-but-what's-in-your-back pack camping. Anyways, at the top of this mountain (The bald one in the middle. At least I think it was that one.) you got awesome cellphone reception. If you scroll to the left you can kinda see the trails I walked through and the camp. (The trail down that other mountain was a bitch) and we could see Eagle Nest Lake to the south. I don't know what that town is. Despite the reception, I would not have wanted to lug a portable hotspot and laptop all the way up that mountain, much less to the mountain. 60 miles is a long way. --- I'm not a very effective viral sig.

So... you're saying you can predict what software will be used 15 years from now, when the first-graders enter the business world? Assuming they don't skip a grade, and go through 2 years of college, plus 1 extra year for whatever.
Dude, you're retarded. Even if everybody still uses Microsoft stuff, it will be radically different from what we use today. What is most likely to happen is that we will use more F/OSS software, and if we teach them on F/OSS, they will have the skills to adapt to whatever comes next. --- (\_/) (O.o) This is Bunny.

In fact, if open source started doing implants, it's more likely that the authors will be testing the devices out. Therefore, there will be more on the line for open source authors.
