Clearly you have a limited life experience  zkiwi | 03/30/09
Daily updates, oh my!  sqr(cos(180)) | 03/28/09

Go Ubuntu Go! M$ is 0xDEADDEAD  InAction Man | 03/27/09
Hey, Inaction Man...  MGP2 | 03/27/09
Thanks for pointing it. There was no need though.  InAction Man | 03/28/09
Seriously  AndyCee | 03/29/09
No RSS, just a simple parser script that notifies me of relevant articles  InAction Man | 03/29/09
See, that just proves what I said in my earlier post....  MGP2 | 03/29/09
Honestly...  LeonBA | 05/04/09
It sure is fun using Ubuntu, with all of the great updates every 6 months.  DonnieBoy | 03/27/09
So you have to upgrade every 6 months?  Loverock Davidson | 03/27/09
You don't have to...  waybj | 03/27/09
One problem I encountered with Ubuntu updates.  ye | 03/27/09
Takes less time...  storm14k | 03/27/09
What is your solution? (nt)  ye | 03/27/09
I Installed the drivers.  sparkkkey | 03/27/09
Since I don't have this model of laptop....  storm14k | 03/27/09
@sparkkkey: Where did you obtain the driver?  ye | 03/27/09
@storm14k: Perhaps you're not understanding my objection.  ye | 03/27/09
@ye: to be able to edit xorg.conf first you have to create it  InAction Man | 03/27/09
@InAction Man: Who said anything about it already existing?  ye | 03/27/09
Wrong, xorg itself will create it for you, no cut and paste needed  InAction Man | 03/27/09
@nAction Man: Again: Where did anyone say anything about the existence...  ye | 03/27/09
I thought the non-xorg.conf started in 8.10...  storm14k | 03/27/09
@ye...I understood your rule...  storm14k | 03/27/09
@storm14k: You don't know? Then that means you...  ye | 03/27/09
@storm14k (take 2): No, it's not faster.  ye | 03/27/09
@Inaction Man - There we are..the epitome of the LFB people complain about!  MGP2 | 03/27/09

Then Windows is not ready for the masses.  storm14k | 03/27/09
@Ye....stick with one story....  storm14k | 03/27/09
@storm14k: Please don't put words in my mouth.  ye | 03/27/09
@storm14k: My "story" has been 100% consistent.  ye | 03/27/09
@ye...here it is again  storm14k | 03/27/09
@storm et al  zkiwi | 03/27/09
Argue with ye or with a traffic light, same result.  InAction Man | 03/28/09
@storm14k: The problem with your argument is I didn't bash it.  ye | 03/28/09
@zkiwi: If one argues what I write and not something they make up...  ye | 03/28/09
Ye will always be ye!  InAction Man | 03/28/09
My apologies  AndyCee | 03/29/09
@AndyCee: You apology rings hollow when you follow it up with:  ye | 03/30/09

@InAction Man: LOL! Says the staker who attempts to pass...  ye | 03/30/09

Ubuntu sure has put fun back into computing  InAction Man | 03/27/09
When did upgrading your Operating system every 6 months  GuidingLight | 03/27/09
Updating linux every six months, is better than  xXSpeedzXx | 03/27/09
It upgrades itself over the network. No effort from the user is needed  InAction Man | 03/27/09
Well...  storm14k | 03/27/09

I meant my ATI 7200 series video card and  yschoo1@... | 03/27/09
Yes, it's only Loverock, right?  MGP2 | 03/27/09
Amen, NZ...  MGP2 | 03/27/09
