Sp tell me... Is it bump-ass or bum-pass?

Why can't I mod poster +/- 1: Troll?

This should have been news 5 years ago :(

Same appearantly was the case with Ubuntu's unity.. but that time the dev-team won. :( Bleeping mouse-centric GUI, it takes forever to get stuff done, and here i've been complaining about win 7's grouping taskbar and OSX, but that seriously takes the price.

How about not disrupting, but instead enabling users to work in new ways (as well)? We can't all think the same you know... just because the new "flow" is better it's not for every one of us.

But what about the format?! I for one won't carry a 17'' laptop with me... They are HUGE! My 15'' 4:3 1400*1050px is smaller than just about any 15.4/15.6 and they mostly have 768 or 800 vertical pixels. (That obviously means i have more pixels, BUT also a lager display area in a smaller package) On the odd occation that you find 1440*900 that is not overly expensive... well, probably something else is wrong due to that there are like 3 of them... So no, you are making the so-called midrange laptops up, nothing portable and somewhat affordable has 1680*1050.

What 4G in the US&A? say what? Ah, it was only a marketing thingy.. like those chinese mp5 plyers... Afaik the only real 4G networks are in Sweden and Norway... (We are talkin some 50 Mbit downstream here) I wonder what real 4g will be called in the us.. Epic 4G, no wait... that's taken too.

Indeed. The only use i can see for this "break-trough" is enabling your old tvs to make use of HD content, both early digital devices and of course analog ones (as this opens for more and cheaper? HDfury-like products). Thinking of it this way.. exactly what were they prohibiting? Pirated HD seems unaffected...(?) Or had they teamed up with tv-makers to help them make shitloads of tvs obsolete perhaps? I bet they were scared of all that analog HD out there because it's too damn easy to copy and distribute... oh wait! :O

Exaectly what came to my mind.. Too bad most americans don't know what they are missing out on though. That it is somewhat socialistic appearently makes it bad by definition. -.-'

Well, if there are better things, include them! Still I'd consider Abiword superior in being simple to use for a Word-person, hands down. All of OOo is messed up and you simply cannot find where to change certain setting, as with msoffice, all you have to do is look a little. OOo is one of the programs that give FOSS a bad name, imho.

OOo Calc ofcourse! Haven't had time to try Gnunmeric since i mainly use windows (XP).. Thanks for the tip anyway, i'll remember it when I eventally make the move to *nix.

Well yes.. I guess that's a way to look at it. But as I said, i sereously doubt average joe uses presenter or calc though. And probably they should be a few clicks away then.. And as for writer vs. Abiword there is no competition. And i didn't really object against removing Gimp, i simply meant that it shouldn't be the first to go.

Drop that bloated OpenOffice before considering dumping programs that actually do what they are supposed to.. Abiword is quite enough for the average user, that probably almost never starts presenter or that lousy excel-wannabe thingy. Now how's that for a stripdown of crap ey?

Point taken, but it does create akward situations i must say..

The caller should already be paying for the traffic, IMO. And since it is more expensive in the US, that should be payed for one would hope. (At least here the caller's operator share some of the money with the recivers') Imagine not being able to be reached once you run out of money, if you pay as you in some way... I have no problem with not being able to call if you'd run out of money, that affects your posibilities to communicate.. But blocking others from calling you, and they wouldn't know when that is the case. nuh.. Okay, my wording is not perfect, but do you see where i'm getting at? (I get billed for my calls, so it wouldn't affect me that much, but still..)

Most probably. "We won't build any 3g-towers until we can eat customers souls".. Isn't DRM still illegal in finland?
