Yup, I wish someone would slip up and make it clear that Symantec and McAfee are distributing viruses. I keep hearing rumours, but haven't seen proof myself.
Those SSH password attacks spread Linux based Spambots. I have repaired a handful of servers in the USA and Singapore that suffered infections. The Redone spambot targets the tens of thousands of indentical systems on server farms, of which some are sure to have bad passwords. Once it has set up shop it spewes out enormous amounts of spam. It is managed through IRC.
Tastes changed. Young people don't listen so much to music anymore - they play WOW instead. There's a fixed number of hours in a year - if one activity grows, something else has to decline.
"Will a small 2" screen make you less productive?", "Will a small 1x1mm screen make you less productive?". Now the answer becomes obvious.
You could possibly ask for larger screens based on medical reasons - are you wearing glasses or lenses? If you were in Canada, then you could ask for a larger screen since the company has a duty to accommodate a disability.
Sure it is beneficial - I have billed lots of hours to fix computers all over the place and it still hasn't stopped. There is still one damn machine that refuses to change its clock no matter what I do - more $$$...
They should put Vista on it too. It would make an excellent demo for Linux, having two machines side by side - one running Vista/XP (and practically unusable), the other Linux.
The sphynx was covered to its neck in blown in sand not so long ago. Some other buildings bear evidence of using sand to cover the site as they built up with rough stone, then as they dug it out again, the stones were dressed nicely from the top down. Egyptians are used to sand - it is everywhere - there is no shortage of it. This architect clearly could not see the forest for all the sand...
Hmm, Knoppix on a CD or Puppy on a USB stick should fix that for you. If you need something with more local storage space than a USB stick, then try installing Ubuntu on a USB disk drive.
You mean: If it ain't broke, why break it? Since Vista isn't going to make a working PC work better, it can only make it worse. MS is the only OS manufacturer that consistently brings out upgrades that are slower than the previous version. That is just plain stupid.
Actually, evolution isn't nearly as politicized as it was in the 19th century. See the Huxley files: http://aleph0.clarku.edu/huxley/ Prof Huxley was known as "Darwin's Bulldog".
Even as recent as 75 years ago, there were law suits between believers and unbelievers, for example the case between Prof Du Plessis and the University of Stellenbosch in the 1930s. Basically, Prof Du Plessis contended that one should not take the creation myth of the bible literally. The problem was that he was the chief of the theological seminary - oops. So he was dismissed. He then sued and was re-instated, with full pay, then told to go home and stay there!
Even his statue was moved around town several times and only in 2006 - 70 years later - was it moved to the grounds of the seminary as a sign of "reconciliation".
So if you think that the creation myth is controversial today, it is nothing compared to 100 years ago.
Orange Juice is also interesting since it contains Benzene, a known carcinogen. The longer you keep orange juice, the more benzene is formed. So orange juice is not completely beneficial.

Hmmm, puts the use of Fast Forward in a whole new light...

Damn, I'll have to fork the project just to give a better name - somewhat like the Centos project...
I wonder whether Cygwin runs on Vista yet. If it does, then that may be a solution for your copy problem.
I guess they have too many of these horrid little things in stock to dump^Wsell them all on Ebay.

Actually, what happened is that you are now 10 years older and your priorities have shifted...
No, the spelling is correct.

You forgot that it will be tied down with a helluva thick power cable, ground straps and water cooling...
Woohoo, just what I need. Keeping a baby like that running will be a bitch. Permanent employment in a box...
No, no, you'll hear from it again next year...

Every time there is a MS Windows upgrade, processors get slower.
What? Kim Yong Ill watches movies in the buff? Yeah, I can imagine what kind of movies...

Do you have any idea how incredibly small a quantum leap is?
I guess it still applies...

I think you should read up about Rene Descartes and what he wrote about the scientific method in his "Discourse on Method" in 1637.
