Google will tell you.

http://perlbox.org, sorry for the lateness of the response, haven't used ubuntu in a long time.

Nice sig.

True about the servers, and yes it will be interesting to see what happens when the market share increases. I agree that exploits will be seen, but I doubt that they will be Linux's fault. And even...

As has been said above over 70% of servers are on linux, and this is what the real hardcore viruses would go for, so user base has nothing to do with it.

The terminal will come with time, as for the packages, some are by the community, some are by companies like mozilla or limewire. When you talk about converting things from windows, its more that...

When you first switch you do have a learning curve, but in the end it is worth it.

IN the list why is the US Canada and UK, but no Australia, Newzealand, India, China, and all of the other countries. and also, Oceania includes Aus and NZ.

Also if you change from NTFS to a Linux FS, Windows computers wont be able to read the drive, whither that an issue or not I don't know, but its worth thinking about.

It really isn't that bad once you adjust, it livens up the day as well.

He has been doing it for a few years now, there is a new beta out which comes as livecd and web based, I find it very useful. He also has openoffice available in firefox. I think, as he puts it, it...

That must have been hell to write, assembler is so unfriendly.

what about BTFS, its surely got something in Linux's future, its till in beta, but it already is up with XFS and is far faster then JFS. It also seems to be able to support many of the ideas that are...

2008 is not without its issues, but 2008.1 even at beta was like creamed French butter, purely for lack of something smoother than French butter.

It me that said that GPL'ed code was being used but if i had proof i would have submitted something already.

I find this odd, as many of you have said, many pieces of SkyOS have been 'taken' from Linux, yet as these pieces are uder GPL, then how can SkyOS be closed source without breaking the GPL agreement?...

There is an cad program for linux that walks up and down autocad, vericad I think, I havn't used it as I'm still in first year, but i will be keeping an eye on it.

Its nice to lnow that even if this gets passed they OSS movement will continue, I think it has reached a size now where it cannot be stopped. Especially now that America is opening up, the chances...

This would be vry useful and probably ive the best results. However I don't know of such a tool, but i ma sure that one will exist somewhere.

The problem with benchmarks of these sorts is that the results are still quite variable, as you have said, many of the filesystems are better for some things than others, and i am sure will perform...
