I think since Bootcamp, everyone just assumed that Mac users were just dual booting to play games. Not always true, though (and a real inconvenience).

Why would mac users dual boot (and consider that "conventient), and Linux users run wine? Most Linux users run LInux on windows-compatible computers.

The first time I saw that I knew I was not getting a blackberry.

Then you didnt do your research very well, because BIS is the ghetto "i cant afford a BES" experience. A proper BES is magnitudes more secure than anything SSL has to offer.

Seriously.
There's absolutely no evidence to back this up. With SSL and my own server, I'm sure nobody's listening to my connection. The same can't be said for BES, because, seriously, we don't know!

Actually, it's not 100% wikipedia. It displays smart information on top.
I remember searching for an apache httpd configuration directive last week, and DDG showed a snippet of the documentation on top. It was exactly what I was looking for. It's slightly smart, and rather helpful in general.

Personally, I use DDG as my primary search engine. But when I need to look for very specific issues (why is my commanlink not working with X and Y in JSF), I find that google gives better results. Google still works better if you have lots of keywords or long sentances, but otherwise DDG is enough.
