Skype runs on Ubuntu and not through wine. They actually have a .deb package for it and probably for other distributions as well. For other things though, yeah you might have to stick with windows or at least run a VM.

You could almost say the French music industry is...retreating.

Will the French version tell me to build a great line of firewalls that are easily circumvented by going through a router in Belgium?

but I'm not complaining. Google dropping support for old browsers like IE7 is a huge help to web developers everywhere. I only wish that Yahoo and Google would join with Google so none of the major search engines supported these out-dated browsers anymore.

This is why I've told everyone not to immediately update to Ubuntu's latest version. In fact, your best bet is to just stick with the LTS releases. Ubuntu has certainly proven not to be an option for production level servers and is starting to make me question its viability as a work station.

How do people on Windows 2000 and older switch? Is MS advocating these people use a non-microsoft browser?

so the defenders of free speech want to take someone elses
