when shopping for a PC over the last 10 years it seems that if there's a Nvida card then you know you're going to be OK installing Linux. Other cards not so much. I'm not a gamer so I don't hang on the bleeding edge and obsess over frame rates but when I work with 3D Nvdia seems to get the job done, even if it's closed source at least it's there.
From a developers point of view there are likely glitches inherent in working with closed software that need to be worked around to keep things stable, only speculating but I imagine this is what may be frustrating Linus.
REALLY.... you're paid to be there to work, not conduct personal business! Perhaps if you were relieved of your employment you could dedicate yourself full time to your own endeavours from a connection that you procure with your own money that you can fully trust!!
Try hard to really imagine that it was YOUR money that paid for the office, lights, computers, Internet, and your salary, not to mention things like workmans comp insurance should you decide to do something stupid and hurt yourself while working etc... would you want people conducting personal business on YOUR dime?
Are you a prisoner, stuck there 24 hours a day? if so, then you may have a valid point, if not, wait until you get home!
Quit whining and devote that energy to being productive and perhaps if you have a positive work ethic good things will come your way!
so much easier to support than winblows. the only issue you ever run into is training, and kids will figure stuff out on their own. I replaced various versions of Windows at my company 5 years ago and that's the last time I had to dick around with spyware and virus scans and reloading OS's, Ubuntu just works and users don't break it. go back to redmond where you work and stay there.
I'm going to assume that you're going to get a bunch of these things, I'd contact several different manufacturers and solicit bids for laptops running Linux. Hopefully you'll be getting enough volume to be taken seriously and helped by people who sell computers. If it's for the Kids to use I'd look real hard at "Netbooks" because kids don't mind the smaller size and you'll find that you can get what you need at a much lower price point. Call Dell, Call IBM, Call them all and tell them you want Linux Laptops for a whole school what can they do for you.
the problem with GM crops is that they're owned by corporations looking to monopolise on the worlds food supplies. Monsanto is somehow taking over without much public resistance http://www.mindfully.org/Pesticide/Monsanto-Roundup-Glyphosate.htm
It's so hard for me to believe that so many people still use Windows. As a Ubuntu Desktop user and administrator of a small business network, I've been patiently waiting since 1999 for enough people to just ditch windows all together so that we could all move on to better times. Everyone I know who has tried Linux in the past few years hasn't gone back to Windows, and were all amazed that the computer 'Just Worked'. People are so used to struggling with Windows issues that they don't expect using a computer to be easy and it really doesn't have to be that way.
So perhaps this is a bit off topic, but every time an article comes out touting some new enhancement of the Microsoft Windows Operating system, I just feel compelled to say "Who fucking cares?" and "Why does anyone even bother with this Operating System designed with the main purpose being to lock up your computer spending dollar into Microsoft?" Don't we all know better already?
Please people, get over MS Windows already, let it die.
this kind of thing should void all other apple patents for a term of 10 years, this way, companies would be more careful what kind of shit they'd fling at the patent office.
how can he expect anyone to take him literally and not see the real plea for publicity cloaked in a poorly executed attempt at reverse psychology?
oh wait, this is for windows users who enjoy the Microsoft experience, makes perfect sense, carry on.

The less competent everyone around you becomes. Are you sure you're not just getting too smart to teach CS 1?
I love being detached from brainwashing commercials on Netflix, and I find that not being aware of what great new shows I'm missing has reduced my tv viewing stress level., browse, pick a show, click play and relax... so much better this way. I still enjoy the morning news when I'm eating breakfast but that's free over the air.
fat is cheap, eating healthy costs more money. Food companies find more and more ways to produce 'food' cheaper and cheaper until what you get is so far from natural and healthy food that it's killing people. Try to shop for organic or only non-processed items and you'll find that your grocery bill will double. I really think we could fund universal healthcare with beer and cig taxes, as to what guideline you'd use to tax unhealthy food I have no idea.
