Well sure, I can see how that is true, but doesn't that apply to Blue Ray as well? I mean, it is safe to assume that neither will boom because maybe the release of these is too close to when DVDs came out. When regular DVDs came out, the release of VHS/Beta max was long ago and people's cassettes were wearing out. I'm sure that helped them take off...
On a second thought, does enough of the general populous even own an HDTV to need to replace their "obsolete" DVD collection?
I don't see why people are thinking that Blue Ray will surge over HD DVD. Just because the PlayStaion 3 will use them? I personally think (and you don't need to agree with me) that HD DVD will succeed because 1) it has a logo similar to that of the existing DVD's, and 2) it has the initialism DVD in it. The general public, the ones that buy DVDs will see a familiar logo along with a familiar name and buy it.
This was probably just some way for the Ubuntu developers to steal passwords. But, since someone noticed they had to act like it was an accident and release a patch.
Looking at how much each component of the PlayStation 3 will cost, $350 for it's Blu-Ray player... Sheesh, I hope that HD-DVD players will be cheaper, though I remember how much DVD player were when they just came out. Oh well, looks like I will have to keep my DVD's even longer. =]
Why don't they just make their own distro using something such as Linux From Scratch? THey have enough money to create an entire Linux division in their corporation.

It won't be $199.
It's just something to try to stir up the water...
Five years... just enought time for them to doctor up the entire thing.
Or you can use C-W...
Agreed.
Then where is it, behind a door that says "Beware of Leopard"?

But, I could be wrong.
It's good that they realize and hopefully will do something about these threats.
On DistroWatch, there are around 600 distributions, how can people want to make any more?
Why can't people think that God put an devolved form of life on the planet and we evolved like the Scientists say?
I hate when Proof's of Concepts are Slashdotted, it just makes it easier for people to make them now that the idea is open like this...
Once it is released, how do you aquire it and where does it get saved to?
This game might actually get me to consider purcashing a 360...
...52 milliseconds and I'm 18. I guess that is pretty avrage for my age group...oh well.

According to the Contest Overview, you can't "PHRASE YOUR RESPONSE IN THE FORM OF A QUESTION!" What are they changing the rules?
support for the Cell processor
I guess the PS3 HDD with Linux was true...
I wonder how much power this uses if you have your own water cooling for everything else, then a seperate system just for your video card?
Haha; does this mean that there aren't any other secrets?
Would anyone be kind enough to tell me what the previous "secrets" were to make is so there is only one left? Thanks!

What the fuck is that? Do you not believe in capitalization on words other than the first? Go back to sucking at the Internet.
