I have tried a small handful of ATI/AMD cards over the years and have never had good results. Performance in Windows was always mediocre and I had massive stability or features not working on Linux. I will admit my last attempt was several years ago (less than 4 though). I'm not talking about embedded or mobile chipsets either, but dedicated AGP or PCIe.
(before you go all AMD fanboy on me (I'm hoping you wouldn't but just in case), I should mention I've been using AMD processors since I abandoned my old Pentium 3 back in the day, and my first few processors were cyrix)
One of the most important parts of emergency response is to be flexible to developments. FEMA has repeatedly demonstrated that they lack this ability.
Have you ever met or talked with someone from a rural area? They may not understand the finer points of technology, but they aren't stupid. Unless it's Alabama.

I think you might be underestimating how much of a liability this could be on a child in 10-15 years. Think about those folks who "don't know nothing about those computers" - it's only going to get worse. Would you want to force that on your progeny just to make your job as a parent easier?
Now I'm not trying to trivialize physical or emotional abuse - don't get me wrong. I would argue this is intellectual abuse however, and it all falls under the same "abuse" umbrella.
It's not abuse, but it's still a stupid thing to do. The road to Hell is paved with good intentions...
Might as well say "one didst catch a fish."
Damn! You turned my opinion around! I'm so sorry for ever doubting your position!
So the majority should lose out to make things easier for the minority?
but it's impossible for you to actually show it happening
That's because it takes orders of magnitude than a human being lives, dumbass! Would you deny continental drift because you can't see it happening? Grass grows too slowly to be seen by the naked eye, so while we're at it you can deny that grass grows, too.
Does it matter? A person is a person, and in English the default gender for words that still manage to have a gender is male.
The difference is you actually maintained/repaired it. Usually that would have been thrown out.
Or you could just hide them, then it stops trying. You can unhide later if you want.
Either that or I got unlucky. But it's there, and has a beneficial use. My condition still stands.
