  1. Re:M$ wants people to upgrade.. on Microsoft Responds to 'Save XP' Petition · · Score: 1

    I didn't make myself clear enough: I installed Kubuntu's Hardy Alpha with KDE4. And yet, it is called ALPHA for a reason. And there is a reason why Kubuntu 8.04 won't include KDE4 as default. Maybe it's just been released and not entirely ready for mainstream. It's got kinks and growing pains to be worked out still.

      Actual KDE4 doesn't run in windows. And it never will.

  3. M$ wants people to upgrade.. on Microsoft Responds to 'Save XP' Petition · · Score: 1

    On a lighter note;
    Since Microsoft wanted people to upgrade, i decided to given in and upgraded to Linux.

    Serious note:
    And those who can't upgrade and prefer Windows, Older computers just can't run Vista and Microsoft are to much of dumbasses to realize that. XP must remain until older computers are dead. Thanks to M$, Viruses will spread more rapidly. M$ will make it easier for hackers to take control of XP machines that can't upgrade. So in a couple years, you can blame M$ for rapid spread of computer viruses because of their discontinuation of Xp Support.

      Yahoo has the best damn internet portal. iGoogle is worse then MSN or the former Live.com Portals. I hope Yahoo keeps saying no to Microsoft's offers. if Microsoft controls yahoo, i'll leave and find some crappy linux rss feeder to use.

      It is because people know who Consumer Reports is and they can trust them to give honest reviews of products. And price is well worth it to keep them from making the wrong buying decision.

  11. I miss Compusa on CompUSA To Close All Stores · · Score: 1

    I will miss CompUSA for the small things where online shopping is inefficient. Whats worse is the fact I am moving to a state where everything is flown there so buying online isn't always economical.

    I used Compusa for Mounting Kits, Extra screws, paper sleeves, and etc. Rest come from Newegg.com

      Let's not forget thousands of people out of work.

    You took it to the extreme

  17. I can download legally. on TV Torrents — When Piracy Is Easier Than Purchase · · Score: 1

    But here's how I accept legal episode downloads. 1. It's got to be free. Use product placement in episodes to make your money, networks. 2. Video must be DRM Free. 3. I can burn it to DVD-Video or [trans|en]code it to format my media player accepts. 4. And I have to be able to download it on my favorite OS, Linux. If The video has similar DRM like Apple's new Music DRM then fine just as long I can burn it to DVD-Video on Linux. And then download client works on Linux w/o WINE.
