Linux Linux will become ubiquitous in the year 3000. Okay, that was a horrible joke. Linux is just a kernel, the engine that runs an operating system. By itself, it is essentially useless. Kernels shouldn't be discussed or noticed by normal users. And as such when providing these users with reviews, previews and "professional" opinions, computer consultants, computer reviewers and computer journalists should not spew headlines like "Linux is not ready for prime time", "Linux on the desktop by XXX", "Linux to takeover Windows", "Linux is not ready for desktop" and so on.

Personally, I can't show any respect for a instant messenging program recommending a goddamn P3

Personally I can't show any respect for someone bitching because they can't run new software on their 10 year old Pentium 1! GMAFB!

A P3 is *old* hardware man. Thats like the bottom of the barrel these days.

I'm typing this on a dual p3 btw. ;)
