I try to view the comic archives. Then it seems that it requires Silverlight, so I click the 'get silverlight' thing. Then eventually I'm imformed that my operating system/browser (Windows 2000/Firefox) combination is not supported. How about that.
I agree. Unfortunately, these days many Loonox distributions don't run comfortably with 512MB RAM, though DEBIAN still does. DEBIAN is a shining beacon of usability, all alone in the night, apart from one lonely friend nearby... the ion3 window manager.
Hey! Rob Malda!
My name is Dennace Whitely. You may have heard of me before; they like to call me Golden Dennace. I'm a popular rock singer and successful businessman.
Calm down son. My name is Dennace Whitely. You may have heard of me before. They like to call me Golden Dennace. I'm a popular rock singer and businessman. I've done extensive image editing and music composition THIS VERY DAY on a Pentium 3 laptop from 7 years ago. I think that this machine will be plenty for MSN messenger and browsing myspace.
Now if you'll excuse me, my business partner is taking me out to dinner. I have little time to spare on scruffs such as yourself. Heh heh heh heh.
Yeah, definitely. It reminds me of the linux experience, where you've got GTK1, GTK2, Qt, TK/TCL or whatever applications all over the place and everything looks and works different. It's very unpleasant.
How many gigabytes of RAM will you need to check your email in 2020?
Probably a ridiculous amount, judging by the increasing bloat of today's software. And then when you try to show people how ridiculous it's getting, they'll make a remarks like "Well DUH! Shouldn't you think of replacing your old commodore 64!?!?!?!?".
Free wireless drivers? The wireless in my laptop works with linux, but according to Ubuntu's driver management thing, it requires proprietary drivers. So, maybe you are mistaken... or are only some of intel's wireless adaptors free and open?
I don't mean any offense to you, but if you believe that there definitely are other correct religions out there, then that's not true Christianity.
Jesus said in John 14:6: "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me."
Just wanted to bring this to your attention. I hope you think about this. And BTW, you might find thebereancall.org to be a very interesting site.
You should have just installed the 32bit version. There is absolutely no benefit from using the 64bit version, especially to an 'average user' like your sister who just wants to do stuff.
My friend, I hear your call! I, too, have switched to LINUX for desktop use. Now, I have my freedom back.
To others, I beckon. Get off the sinking ship! Grab the LIFEBOATS. That is, BSD or LINUX!!

PENIS. Alright everyone, let's buy VMware.
Yes. Now in a year or so, Linux will be ready for the desktop. 2008 is the year of Linux on the desktop!
Oh bravo! Good show! BIG PENIS! I can't stand that file selection dialogue.
What is the specification of your machine?
Stop the presses! Firefox has had bugs fixed!
What's the big deal? This makes a lot of sense. It could help in catching criminals... and that's probably what it's going to be used for.

My question is, do you use LINUX?
Just curious.
Ya know... if anyone's wondering.
Calm down son.

Yeah definitely. On the desktop linux is really a jack of all trades, but master of none.
Not to mention the (pretty much) same OS!
Couldn't this just be because the older one has lived longer, and has had more time to develop than the younger one?
You aren't forced to read it, Timmy.

Good luck.
Because of 'fp btw'? You and everyone who moderated you as 'insightful' are all idiots, just in case you wanted to know.

I'm sorry, but this is ridiculous. It's "their", not "there". Heh heh heh.
FACKIN' BIG PENIS!!!
How are you all feeling!!!
