What else would we talk about other than the massively [popular|controversial] article about X.org last week. We try and address a number of concerns about the article and common lines of reasoning / misunderstanding. Lastly, we move onto something completely different with topics on Google Chrome on Linux, IE6 and the two details we know about RockMelt: Rock. Melt.

Since original article was complete bull... that is probably sanest option.
Thom was more or less bullshiting about his unstable hardware, not X. Any even a little technical person will conclude the same on every OS when user has complaints like that. I would even go as far as to bet that he uses proprietary NVidia driver and then blames free software.
About restoring the state on crash? THERE SHOULDN'T BE CRASH AT ALL... EVER... and in that case... who cares about restore (I don't... for 5 years not even one X/kernel crash for me).
About Thom...
He is more than occasionaly quite interesting to read... If you exclude times when he starts thinking he is a technical person (it would be time for him to finally decide on which pill he will swallow, if only he will realize the truth after... HE IS NOT TECHNICAL PERSON).
