It's still unsubstantiated in the above posts."The issue is there are still many people out there that use religion as a crutch for bigotry and hate. Like Ben."

Really? Explain how, that you guarantee companies would not find a new way of abuse through TCPA?

Yes, the 2.6.x kernel is officially stable, but not reputably, empirically so, it would be common for a lot of vulnerabilities to be found. Generally, most servers should stay away from it, till it becomes more secure, and stick with 2.4.x Being a consumer, I don't see any signficicant risks.
i favor 2.6 over 2.4. why? lots of features that i've found i can't live without now.
for instance: better device driver models. better support for usb, ieee1394/firewire, gigabit ethernet, alsasound...
2.4 being "stable" and what not is good for only one thing, servers. and if you're going to be that anal about it, might as well stay with debian.B♭3Comment

i don't know why i dual boot, really.
the two games i play, coh and ut2k4, are installed under both; they both have working ssh servers; they both share under samba; i have programs that do the exact same thing under both OSes; all of my peripherals work flawlessly under both; my documents and settings are saved on a partition both have r/w access to...
there's no reason to dual boot, but i like to anyway. mostly for this: better framerates for ut2k4 in linux, better framerates for coh in windows.B♭3Comment

Whoops, forgot, I meant, "I don't see any significant risks with 2.6, being a consumer".

The burden of proof is not on me, you need to point out specific sections of law you think would allow MS to abuse the TCPA freely to lock out competition.Originally posted by Natalinasmpf

Yes, since it has new versions of DLLs.
You'll need to get the new version."The issue is there are still many people out there that use religion as a crutch for bigotry and hate. Like Ben."

I don't see why they need to make everybody jump through hoops or use 3rd-party software to use themes other than the ugly-ass themes that XP comes with.Comment

Then Microsoft is clearly in violation of anti-trust laws, because they prevent people who cannot use crappy operating systems from using the PPC 970.Originally posted by Asher
Providing consumers a free product is not anti-trust, preventing consumers from using a competitor's product is.
Point of interest: the hare was the one who moved faster.Originally posted by Natalinasmpf Wrong. It started behind, but it is catching up. The tortoise and the hare. Linux on the desktop is moving at a tad faster speed. It'll take some time to catch up yes, but there the disparity is closing. If you hadn't looked at Novell's and SuSE's new products...
