Samba was not listed as having a clean bill of health, there were bugs that have yet to be verified.
I think the bug rate for alot of these projects (Linux, Samba, etc) remarkable
Despite I totally agree, the FCC is still worried about it's apperance to a point. If they kept on overlooking this people will be more vocal accusing the FCC of being "bought" and make people hate them even more (censorship is bad enough)
Announcing an investigation seems to be more of a way to save face, chances are they wont look to hard and "wont find anything unusual" but that is just my skepticism.
I'd say Assassin's Creed was about as sandbox as GTA only with climbing walls replacing stealing cars and other "equivilents" between modern times and the crucades.
Despite Creed was a good game and all, it failed to meet it's near impossible expectiations.
I remember the 1999 article about Szulik rising to CEO level. Since then Red Hat has done alot and have become very successful in their business model.
Not to mention making a rival in Oracle after buying JBoss, so in retaliation we see Unbreakable Linux. And despite Novell's best efforts and prostituting themselves out to Microsoft we still see Red Hat in the #1 position.
Red Hat will do great without him (a company after all is bigger than one man) but we have seen a company growing so well under his leadership and that speaks volumes
I agree, the US Govt could have done it but they just wouldn't
Microsoft spends so much on lobying to get what they want its not funny. If the US wanted to split Microsoft in half (which there was talk of many moons ago) the would have, problem is Microsoft pay alot to be near exempt from anti-trust laws. The EU despite no doubt having corruption there too (all govt's have it, just a question of how much), are not as well bought as US congress seems to be.
For the pillars of the earth are the Lord's, and on them he has set the world. 1 Samual 2:8
Who shakes the earth under heaven from its foundations and its pillars totter Psalm 75:3
He has established the world; it shall never be moved Psalm 93:1
The pillars of heaven tremble, and are astonished at his reproof Job 26:11
Who shakes the earth out of its place, and its pillars remble. Job 9:6
Accuse every athlete that enters a back ally of any city in the world of being a user. Solved, sure it's not fair but most of the methods to combat drug use aren't either.
It's just not the same, the Phantom was officially abandoned. 3DRealms never said DNF was scrapped just "undeniably late" and for the past 10 years has officially been under development
It opens up new potential devices to use the office suite. Stuff that have web browsers that do not nessicarily have Office: Video game consoles, Media Centre's etc
Maybe in the future one that could work with smartphones, mobiles and handheld game consoles?
It's not so much that they care that much that their format is an ISO standard or not, its more about the following points
1) When someone accuses Microsoft of not using open standards they will point to OOXML if it gets passed
2) They dont want ODF to be more of a "standard" than OOXML, on paper or otherwise as it gives people incentives to switch even if it is a small amount.
They have to be careful not to get to arrogent in the media, saying boldly ISO standards are meaningless, Microsoft standards have more meaning will expose them as bragging about not adopting standards and bragging about being a monopoly that wants to lock you in. That too could turn people away.

Hey kids, give a warm /. welcome to Darl McBride
An above poster (and some fan of paedophelia and wife bashing) seem to think its M$ SQL Servers that got hit
At the same time it could just be flaming
Was that a retorical question?

I'm curious, where does it say that?

Like how according to the bible the sky used to require pillars to stay up there?
They dont delete anything unless its something like death threats, alleged links to child p0rn, terroist threats stuff like that
Spam just gets modded, not deleted and they are most likley the same guy just going through different proxies.
It's just not the same, the Phantom was officially abandoned. 3DRealms never said DNF was scrapped just "undeniably late" and for the past 10 years has officially been under development
I too will risk karma to to throw an idea about the spamming issue
Why doesn't slashdot just track the IP addresses and blacklist them? This myminicity bs, goatse troll, pony fucker, gay erotic novel writer
Im just glad the usual trolls are not around (goatse, gay sex writer, pony lover, etc)
They would have a field day with the title alone
3) They want MSOXML to be eligible for use by governments that have regulations requiring something that claims to be "open standards."
