And, yet, it still costs $960,000,000,000 to manage. Which, BTW, doesn't include the cost of the mandates.
And, yet, we can spend $1,000,000,000,000 on the occupation of Iraq that has been proven to be instigated by the lie of WMD.
So, it is fine to spend untold sums of money in the pursuit of an Imperialistic Dictatorship, but spend that same amount of money on Democratic Social assistance and we become evil.
Bottom line, the money is irrelevant, both parties have shown us that it will be spent regardless of which one is in power. It might as well go to the more altruistic cause.

But the sample size would not nearly be large enough to make an accurate scientific assessment. I refuse to belief that a significant portion of college students do not use caffeine in some degree (ie, soda, energy drink, tablet, chocolate, guaranine, taurine [similar amino?], xanthine, matenine, theine), the environment is simply too stressful and users may simply not be aware that the foods and products they ingest contain caffeine.
I don't doubt that these symptoms can occur with caffeine users. But this study seems like it is based more on conjecture then actual science (a growing trend). To me, it suggests that people suffering from schizophrenia (~0.5% of populous) prefer coffee as 10% of polled users "hear voices."

There is no mention of the control group. Only a polling of 200 students, and most likely ALL of them use caffine. Is it really that surprising to find that large percentages of our population feel like they "sense the dead" or feel as if the are "being persecuted?" Also, would the 200 students who are using a drug (caffeine) to increase performance disclose the use of other (psychotropic) drugs (marijuana).
Well, at least that is what my college experience consisted of...a pretty steady diet of caffeine, marijuana, and alcohol...and maybe even a few harder things occasionally. Shit my boss is looking, he is trying to fire me. Where is my coffee? Oh, fuck, the voices are back...I hear dead people, you know.

Not only do I have an intricate understanding of Microsoft products et al, DOS, Windows3, Windows4 (95/98/ME), Windows5 (2000/XP home&pro), Windows6 (Vista), WindowsCE (Mobile, et al, 4/5/6), but also have experience with Netware, Solaris, AIX, SCO UW7, SCO OSR5/6, SVR3/5, BSD (btw Mac10 is BSD based), Linux 2.4/2.6, and also all things GNU. I do have the knowledge to make an educated decision, whereas your talent can only go as far as your wallet is thick. I also find it hilarious that you wouldn't know the difference between GNU and Linux if it bit you in the ass.
Now, lets look at some ACTUAL numbers instead your fictitious ramblings. Server Market Share Q2 2008
To me, this suggests that Windows is the SLOWEST growing market and Linux will overcome Microsoft as increases in growth will be exponential over the next 3 years! Now, the commercial-Unix is undoubtedly using GNU components, so I would even lump Unix and Linux in together... That would give *nix a 46.1% market share over the MS 36.5% share! (with 7 times the growth, 11.7%!) These numbers are from sales, ie Capitalism not Communism. Just because we believe in the free exchange of ideas and software, does not mean we don't get paid. After all, nothing is more American then the free exchange of ideas.
I never said Microsoft was a marketplace failure. I only pointed out that Microsoft is susceptible to the same flaws, has longer patch times and has launched marketing campaigns that lie to consumers because of their own deployment problems (Mojave). Do you contest any of these points? I don't recall any major marketing campaign against Vista, why did MS need to bait people into a room and show them "Mojave?" (Because in real-world application, Vista sucks donkey-balls!)
And while you are thinking over your obviously defeated point-of-view, why don't you share the source of that fabricated 0.85% Linux market share number with the class.
