yep - obvious photoshop job, but still funny. The great thing for us from the UK is watching the US audience slowly discover that David is fantastically stupid. Hilariously so - like the time he told a reporter on live television "yeah, I'm not stupid - I kicked the other player so I would only get banned for the last group match, and then have a clean slate for the rest of the tournament"... - Jonathan Beckett

Why Linux will always be stuck in the minority
August 15 at 1:23 am - Link

IMO Chris is pretty correct, 'coz he intended (afais) "Desktop" Linux. If 6 editions of Windows Vista are 5 too much... - Yuvi
Color me stupid - it wasn't Chris. But, I agree with what the blogger concerned said. - Yuvi
Some good points but rather limited thinking. - Deepak
When it comes to shareware apps today, I wonder if the place to be is not with Windows as the author says, but rather with the iPhone or OS X. The Windows market is so vast it's hard to get noticed, even with a great app. Now in terms of the OS, I think it still matters. However, I'd add that Linux developers need to make their case today why Linux on a _notebook_ is the thing to do. Easier to manage connectons? Transparent switches between WIFI and EVDO? Longer battery life? Easy ad hoc networks? More and more people have notebooks. That's where the market is in hardware. Where's Linux in this? One area where Linux permutations are sprouting up along these lines is with MIDs. Special tuned versions of Linux are being created to support these small devices. If they're done well, this may be something to watch. - Loren Heiny
its Sad but unfortunately its true. untill we either find a way to make money on linux or Finally get others to leave the greed theres no way linux will come out the shadows off windows & OSX. although more development of WINE will help a LOT - Ro11z
I do believe there needs to be some change to adopt.. Normal users will never understand the "Free as in Speech, Free as in Beer" concept. We need to get rid of the terms open, closed, free, etc.. (whether you care about them or not) Also, not allowing closed source (i.e. Nvidia drivers, Flash, etc) items to be pre-installed is an obvious death wish. Wine should be installed, enabled, and ready to go by default. There are plenty of awesome apps on Linux. Just make them easier to find and install. - Tim Hoeck
Ya lost me when you posted Ballmer spelling out his "thoughts". Gates, okay, but Ballmer - please... That said, as a full time Linux user, you are right in a number of areas. What is wild is that most of them are not that difficult to fix, either. And your point about open or closed source - spot-on. OS for the job getting done, not its license. I could care less how Linux is licensed, as long as I can maintain certain freedoms with it. Good write up. ;) - Matt Hartley

"This online school is significant because it offers a very low barrier to entry for novices who are looking to get their feet wet and start programming. ... Conversely, AppJet requires no software, allowing users to edit, debug, and run code through a browser interface. Because of this low barrier, AppJet may well see an influx of new students who they can convert to regular members." - Paul Buchheit via Bookmarklet

I wished they'd used her full name in the article. I'm a little slow today and thought they had mixed the gender up :-p - David Knight
If the Americans did this, it'd be a huge issue, but nobody seems to care in this case. - Mark Trapp
What are you going to do? She has a Chinese passport that says she's 16 - Jason Carreira
I agree with Mark. That's what makes this an outrage. - Kate Kapetanakis
Jason: count her tree rings? I don't know. If there are multiple independent and corroborating reports indicating that one or more members of the team are underage, I'd hope for some sort of investigation. Maybe the passports were faked? I would think you'd want to remove the cloud of suspicion rather than just say "No!" - Mark Trapp
Of course they were faked, but are you going to call the host country (a country of 1.3 billion) a liar? - Jason Carreira

Harvey, I'm in Texas, but I think even using the phrase "talking proper" is reserved for those fancy city folks, from Dallas or somewhere. ;-) - Patricia(Trish not Patty)
