Anything else that would have come out of the UAE, you would have held under suspicion. Doesn't the phrase "are now compliant with the UAE's telecommunications regulatory framework." set off any alarm bells to you?
UAE adjusted their policies, RIM didn't change anything. Then the UAE grandstanded.
Tech blogs have been extrapolating from minor leaks ands rumours, generating the 'perfect' OS in their minds. When Google released what they think is going fill a niche - a smartphone on steroids - the tech blogs where crushed. Microsoft steps in to assure them that they will continue to have a hype cycle to satisfy their lust for ad revenue, and all is well in the Techblogosphere.
In three or four years, when you can only get Chrome OS on a netbook, the geeks will turn against Google as well. It will be the same fight that was fought for the desktop, but this time it will be Ubuntu that that people will say doesn't let you mount a hard drive out of the box, since it is only SSD, which will be too difficult for the 'common user', and the geek culture will implode on itself as it struggles with it's fanatical devotion to a dumbed down Linux and their realization that Google and Canonical are run by the same type of people that cause them constant strife in their underpaid IT jobs.
Either that, or like when Firefly was canceled, they will just go outside for a week, and wait until they are drawn back in....
The ability to jump to a specific message has been there for a decade, no one took advantage of it (in fact, most disabled it). All they did was create specific calls that navigated the crazy tree for you. Crawl around in a Meridian for a while...
And voice to text has been in almost all carrier grade switches for at least 3 years. Most charge for it, Google didn't.
Turns out weâ(TM)ve announced that weâ(TM)re doing downloadable content for PS3 so itâ(TM)s coming. Weâ(TM)re also including them with Fallout 3 Game of the Year for PS3, coming out for this holiday season.

Yes, because working at GM, Ford, etc was a workers paradise before the big bad unions came along, hellbent on destroying the company.
If you believe you would have _any_ benefits, a single one, without the unions coming before you are delusional.

And Google as well. At least up here in Canada. Google is leaps and bounds ahead of Akamai when it comes to setting things up though.
RTFAs. You are not in direct contact.
If I will see a person who learned how to use Linux by using Ubuntu, I will ignore them.
I agree. However 64-bit works quite well.
Mandriva is hands down the best KDE setup I've used.
Yup.

I want a pony.
You buy it for me.
Holy slopin' dipole this guy is arrogant.
Funny, I never would have thought that a word could have two or more definitions.

I use Cacti, with THold and weathermap plugins.
But then I'm biased.
Stay away from Canada. It's horrible here. No freedom. You wouldn't like it. Try the US, I hear they have a magic president or something.

Kids nowadays.
Traffic cones appear on your front lawn.
Hookers stay in the trunk of your managers rental car.
Since when is having a portion (although a large portion) of Ontario and Quebec subscribers 'most of Canada'?
Does this put me on topic now, and not flamebait?
Yes, in comparison to any of the mature distros, Ubuntu sucks. Realize that you hitched your wagon to a hype machine and get over it, or move on.
Mandriva 2009.0 was what I went with. Works great.
I've been calling it Vista2 for months.
Wouldn't that be ME III?
Yes. Yes it would...
..to figure out it was a marketing campaign designed to get rid of the negative image of Vista not a new OS?
I've been calling it Vista2 for months. Glad to see I was ahead of the herd, and that my instincts are still sound...
... and I'm going to tell you about things that already exist, that other people are working on and make it sound like it's exclusive to Ubuntu.
Thank you for your time.
Mod parent up....
It's nice to see that the Ubuntu fanboys have moved so quickly to 'shut up and like it'.
It took Windows fanboys a decade to get there...
Sure, today, no mod points....
