No,... I don't think so.  You see, with every release of windows, the
user has to keep upgrading to a newer system to maintain the same
response.  With the Pentium IV, which is turning into a space heater, it
will run XP just fine.... but not my wifes' PII @ 233 Mhz.  Linux offers
the end user the opportunity to hang on to their machines a lot longer
and go a lot easier on the wallet.  I introduced my wife to CDE (Common
Desktop Environment) and she liked it a lot better than the Win98se that
she has now.  The tide is slowly turning as the common people that buy
off the shelf ready to run computers to find that things worked one way
yesterday and now things are working differently today.
Or, the very frustrated user, putting up with lock-ups or BSODS.  The
end user will start viewing this as something akin to a "Lemon".  They
will eventually start trying alternatives to get away from these
frustrations.  I'm not including NT or W2K in this list as you don't see
these pre-loaded at any of our local stores, but maybe in large cities.

It's all been bypassed already.  Can you say..should have been In

runs (windows XP or Office XP) on almost all computers everywhere.
After all, what's a little piracy when you have total market
domination?

Sun hasn't been resting on their laurels.  They have introduced the sun
blade 100.  64-bit processing for $950. 500 Mhz sparc IIe with 128Mb ram
upto 2Gb.  I highly doubt Sun will disappear from the market place, but
will instead keep growing.  It'll be awhile before MS comes out with
their 64-bit O/S, which isn't available now.  Also the itantium
processor from intel is still having problems.  It was supposed to be
out last August, but its still in very limited quantities.  Linux has
IA-64 version ready for it, and HP has reportedly developed a UNIX
version for it.  The bad part of the Pentium IV right now is its heat
dissipation... 54 watts.  Yet the sparc chip doesn't dissipate that much
power.  With the rolling black outs and the political push to conserve
power, intels going to have a temporary image problem.

As I understood it, when you use GPL'ed code in your project, your code
becomes automatically GPL'ed too. Only when you keep your code
completely separated from GPL'ed code it remains proprietary. When you
compile something with gcc, you make at least use of gcc's header files.
So you link your code with GPL'ed code by which your code becomes
GPL'ed. Please correct me if I'm wrong with this.

The reason why people actually buy GPL'ed software is, like you already
stated in another posting, because the extra service, support and/or
manuals you get with the software. Furthermore you can make money by
making tailormade applications for your client, think for example of
e-bussiness servers with Apache/PHP/PostgreSQL (where the latter is
truly free software, under a BSD style license). In 'conventional'
business it is my experience that it is customary for tailormade
projects that the sourcecode becomes available to the client.

Kind regards,

People here made the unqualified assertion that Windows can't do it, not in
their experience/opinion, they stated it as fact, wether you have the
intellectual honesty to acknowledge this or not doesn't change that.

I said I've seen Win9x to Win2k format a floppy and do someting at the same

Well I counter their Windows can't format a floppy and chew gum at the same
time because it's not *always* true, you agreed on that, remember. BTW,
evidence that's it's never true ? Because you said so ?

And moreover, why would they bother doing so, there are not the defensive
type, you said it your self.

I like it how you are able to jump from a rhetorical to an absolute sense
when it suits your "debating" needs. How do you figure the difference in the
post ? Do you read the mind of the poster ? I ask for entertainement
purposes only.

Ha ha ha ! Good one ! Please point your browser there:

http://www.google.com/search?hl=fr&safe=off&q=%2BLinux+%2B%22problem+with+a+

I believe that those people are imagining things. After all Linux is not
capable of sometimes not working, Max said so.

Absolutes, gotta love them, so easy to shoot down.

So much for a point stated accurately and moderately.You keep desecrating a
