    Re: Ubuntu screenshot in Yahoo Tech article

    I love it. :D I had the same problem in 5.04. Those were the days. I even remember my first punch card experience.

    Re: Ubuntu screenshot in Yahoo Tech article

    What is so sad about this article is that it does have some untruths and there is no way to correct the author's mistakes. No comments section. Modern LInux distros such as Ubuntu are very user...

    Re: Are tablet sales hurting Ubuntu?

    It's a good thing I saw that smiley face at the end. Ubuntu phones and tablets will be available in stores, and I see no reason for them not to succeed. As far as security goes, your guess is as good...

    Re: Is tablet sales hurting Ubuntu?

    I would say that tablet sales are hurting desktop sales but not operating systems. Even tablets and smart phones have operating systems. For the work I do I could not use a tablet or smart phone. So...
  5. Re: What if Linux was the only OS in existence?

    Most people that run Windows do not update, most don't even know what a firewall is, They know nothing about the inner works of their computer and most use Windows because it came on their computer....
  6. Re: What if Linux was the only OS in existence?

    On the point of the viruses, that's not exactly correct. Most people say that Linux don't have viruses because there is no profit in it. There is not enough of Linux around. That is totally untrue....
  7. [ubuntu] Re: This May Be The New Ubuntu 14.04 LTS Default Wallpaper

    I like the new wallpaper. The folds seem to give it some depth. A lot better then the wishy-washy defaults they've had the last few years. At least its not all blue or white.

    Re: Anybody miss Windows 98 ?

    If you mixed the cards up, you had to start all over. My first class in collage with punch cards was called "Data Processing". My goodness...that was a long time ago.

    [ubuntu] Re: New Unwanted Panel

    That's no way to be. You're not stupid and you did the proper thing by asking in the forums. Furthermore you provided a solution to help others who could have the same issues. Nice job.

  10. Re: Now that the Unity hate has cooled down, how do you feel about the WM?

    I've always liked Unity. You can open up or find anything with one or two clicks. It's very easy to learn and that is the main thing people have problems with. They don't take the time to learn...

    Re: Imagination or is it faster?

    As of right now it's quite a bit faster. Hopefully that will still hold true when the release is final. My first Ubuntu experience was with 5.04. That seems such a long time ago. :D

    Re: Has Ubuntu lost it's Ubuntu?

    I know this has been a while but this statement is not quite correct in my opinion. Many a settings can be changed in Ubuntu and Unity so let's not say it's locked down. Unity is the only DM I use...

    Re: GNOME-flavoured Ubuntu Spin Coming

    I installed gnome-shell as a session and that's how I play around with Gnome 3. I still prefer Unity but it's nice to play around with.

    Re: 32 bit... still recommended?

    I've never been able to get a 64 bit distro running properly in VB. As far as a 64 bit distro goes. If I had a 64 bit system, which I do, then I would use a 64 bit distro. 64 bit is not doggy.

    Re: How Apple Killed the Linux Desktop

    I look at it more as BSD than Linux. It's really irrelevant tho. Since they have their own hardware made for them they can develop their own drivers without problems.

    Poll: Re: What do you think Ubuntu should do?

    I think that they should take it easy and maybe think about rolling their own. After all that's what Mint is doing even tho they are forking, it's still going to be their own little Nemo.

    Re: Honest State of Linux Gaming

    I loved Decent more than Decent 2. I do miss them. I guess I need to take a look at d1x-rebirth and d2x-rebirth.

    Thanks.

    The most that they'll be able to do is turn it off for you. Everyone is making more of a problem with this than what is really is. Canonical and Redhat have already figured out there will be no...

    I don't really switch between desktops anymore. I tried Cinnamon and it was okay but not impressive. Mate is just a Gnome2 wannabe and using Gnome2 would be like beating a dead horse. Gnome3 is good...

    They are nice but I'm mostly out of the cutesy phase now, but I still use them sometimes. I don't use any when I'm serious.
