  3. 3 Billion dollars on SCO Fails to Produce Evidence · · Score: 1

    Let me get this straight.

    SCO is suing IBM for 3 Billion Dollars. ( Think doctor evil ), but the director can't be bothered over the holidays ?

    I gotta get one of those jobs.

    I've been bothered with that silly work thing more than once during a holiday, and if I told people to get back to me after the holidays, I would have been calling them from the unemployment line.

    " and paper has an easier "enter text right here" interface than any computer program I've seen, especially in combination with a pre-existing form. "

    Agreed,

    Lots of emailed documents ( job applications, tests, timesheets ) are not produced to do easy/quick/clean editing and return.

    Wife and I both have done this year, quicker to go buy a new printer/ copier/ scanner for travel assignment to do paperwork.

  5. Re:Know what you're doing, first. on OSNews Rates Fedora Core 1 Mild Disappointment · · Score: 1

    Have to say that I upgraded to FC1 from RH9 today on this box. Had a stable RH9 install with a couple of apps from source. Audacity and QCAD.

    Everything that was working is still working very well.
    Box seems to be a little faster.
    Nothing special about the box just some couple year old parts.
    PIII 733, 384 Megs RAM, ATI Rage 128 video, Sound Blaster Sound, don't remember the NIC.

    I say it is a success.

  6. maybe a little thin kninned on The Post 9/11 Tech Boom · · Score: 1

    but, how did this go from being one ( countries, nations, worlds )tragedy to one "regions" tragedy.

    That strikes me as stupid and callous.

    Kind of like the other days CNN/Money article about the Empire State building being sold and the headline mentioning that it was NY's tallest building.

    Factually correct, but could we not say it a little kinder.

    Call me a whiner, just seems a little .......... something.
