I find it ironic that you spent as much of this time that is oh-so-precious as you did to rant at people you've never met and, most likely, never will meet, to stop allegedly wasting their time.
Nah. Every KDE individual component is installable as of Jan 2005. The 'kde-base' and 'kde-graphics' ebuilds are the old monolithic ebuilds. More info here.
To quote (from memory, but hopefully accurate) the wonderful Eddie Izzard regarding Microsoft's release schedules: "It'll be out tomorrow! Next week! Next month! When we're fuckin' ready, alright?!"
"If, for instance, you purchase and download a CD, burn a copy and give it to a friend and that person puts it on a filesharing network, our system will trace that music back to you and, depending on the legal system of the country you're in, you could be [hit] with an expensive fine," Kip said.
How, exactly?

Zhan defended Chuanghui's sale of remarked chips, saying the company makes no attempt to hide what was done to the chips or to pass them off as more valuable processors. "I tell them the truth," he said.
I can't help but wonder, then, why bother masking the CPU's at all?

KDE is already modularised. See the KDE split ebuilds in portage, for example.
Are they like apologists?
FYI, GStreamer isn't a GNOME project. It's an independant multimedia framework which doesn't depend on GNOME in any way, shape or form.
Eh? What? The Register is British.
I find it interesting that this 'virus' appears shortly after Symantec reportedly gets cushy with the Linux press
I say briefs.
I think it'd be too difficult to wear a whole computer, no matter how well endowed you are.

I, for one, welcome our humorous animated futuristic overlords.
Never mind. They're talking about downloaded albums. My bad.
