Google is counting on participants to develop killer apps for their Android platform. Android's success depends on the results of that contest. I've contributed to it and I know people who have spent months and lots of money developing apps for that contest.
The Microsoft thing seems to be a week-long "speed hack" aimed at a small audience just for fun. Hardly the same thing. Oh, but this is/. and the subject is M$, so let's all foam at the mouths and spew venom all over ourselves.
I was speaking more in terms of helping Linux to become a household name. I guess people misread that. I'd certainly expect them to give back to the community, I just wouldn't expect them to emphasize their Linux roots in their marketing strategies.
I don't see how HP could do any more for Linux than OSX has done for FreeBSD. I doubt very many Mac users even know what FreeBSD is.
HP is building on a Linux because they can, and it's better solution than writing a new OS from scratch. They're probably not doing for the Linux community. The best thing Linux users can hope to come out of this is better driver support, if not open-source drivers, for HP computers. That's good enough for me.

Of course. It's a simple as

As to why he didn't try this in the first place, maybe he assumed the real killers shread'd the body instead of simply rm'ing it. Either way, it's been so long that some of the data has surely been overwritten and is therefore unrecoverable.

So true. There's no distinction between race in the UK, is there? Black, Irish, German and French people in English probably don't even realize they're immigrants. And the British aren't even familiar with those words. They were just invented by Americans to satisfy their obsession with the classification of ethnicity.
Can you call a black child born in Denmark "African-American"? No. Can you point out where in the article any African-Dane was referred to as an African-American?
Slashdot Mirror
6.399.191, with 96,4% of them developed in C, and 3,3% using assembler.
Way to mismatch periods and commas there.
At the major corporation I work for, there is currently a single person who decides what software to approve and disapprove within the organization.
Give Mr. Jobs my regards.
I swear officer, I was only trying to ensure the survival of mankind!

Okay guys, what do you expect from a week-long contest for an Xbox? The next killer web browser?
use open source software, stop delivering e-voting machines to polling places weeks in advance of an election
Voting machine hijackers won't need the machines weeks in advance when they have the source months in advance.
2) Porn spam in their inbox, showing nearly gynecological views of women "ready to make you shoot your load" or "watch me get it on with a horse".
Ah, that brings we back to my childhood. Good times.
Now if you will excuse me, there are bodies in the basement I must tend to.
I agree 100%. Don't let them drink 'till they are 25!

Just as long as Average Joe has the courtesy to sanitize the mouse upon handling his business.

Average Joe should be ashamed of himself.
If you thought nobody was using Vista, who did you think was using Mac? A third of nobody?
You can *not* prove OR disprove the existence of another hidden partition.
Is having passwords for both partitions not legitimate proof of the hidden one?

If that comment was from the story, then there's something wrong with FF3RC1's search feature.
B5 didn't save my tabs when I'd close it. Neither does RC1.
I would hope that if you have sensitive data, it's not the kind they're looking for.
Google's only 12 years old. It shouldn't be visiting those sites.

Like who? Steve Wozniak? Walter Mossberg? So much class and style it hurts.
