I have absolutely no problem with this. Why is destroying the stones better than recycling them? It might be reasonable to grind off the markings, but punishing this couple for recycling is pretty lame. What a bunch of superstitious morons.
"As a whole we are locked into the Microsoft monopoly more tightly than any other nation." So, you've never been to Korea, huh? The windows market share in Korea is something like 99.9%. Almost all American webpages work fine of me on Linux, but the Korean pages still have problems. No, the US is not more locked in than "any other nation." I'm not sure how many nations, if any, are worse than Korea in this regard, but the US isn't.
And Korea has way better cell phones and broadband. There's no connection between those technologies and windows dependence.
I program a tool used for HPC, and we actually have gotten quite a few requests for a Windows version. It seems that in certain fields (Biology) Windows is more popular than *nix. I think the reason for this is historical. The biology people were running their codes on desktops that ran Windows, then began to upgrade to larger machines. They want to reuse their old code, so they want to run Windows on these large machines.
On Hoary Hedgehog Korean support didn't work. In fact, if you even tried to add Korean as a keyboard layout, you got errors. So, does Korean work on Breezy Badger?
