Cable/Satellite television is SO expensive alone, but if you want certain channels, you CANNOT pick and choose, Boomerang, for classic cartoons, is a premium package, the Horror Film channel is a mid-high range package, HBO is the highest tier, but to get an extra channel or two for those is even more! Here's how it goes, with my DirecTV subscription 80$-High tier package for Sci-Fi and Boomerang and such 40$-HBO,Showtime, etc... 20$-Extra HBO and Showtime channels That adds up to...140 dollars a month! This is why I just wanna switch my family to streaming from a media center.

I only watch Cable to support anime ;P Toonami, of course

I'm a student, power user, but a student, I dont have a job with complex program requirements, I don't need PS, Windows-only audio software, whatever......The alternatives, GIMP, Ardour, Libreoffice/Google Office....I have 60% of my games, Minecraft,TF2,Beat Hazard, Linux Tycoon (of course), Gmod, whatever, on (a good amount of ) *nix. Linux is heavily customizable, themes, compositor configurations, Desktop Environments, and...best one...you the under laying are not tied to a UI, maybe Xorg /Wayland (never Mir :P) crashes one day ( has happened on a VBox install) and you have to remove Xorg/Wayland and but your repo's back to the stable/LTS branch, apt-get install Xorg/Wayland and be good to go....or whatever the problem is...you can do it on the terminal. I dont speak for everyone...but I think I at least speak for others in my age range who don't need PS or certain software for their job. Just my thoughts

I'll just order some pudget systems with no OS

Damn, I just started minning today!

What about haiku? You know, for Qupzilla

Let us not forget all the registry key troubles and DLL hell, man, malware messes up your registry like a Dog on crack

If you cant use any "mainstream distros" try a spesific one based off of Debian/Ubuntu or Redhat such as Mageia or Mint, personally OpenSuSe fits my needs 40% of the time while arch does 30% and the rest is a bunch of obscure or unknown distros (as well as ReactOS and Haiku ;) )

In coordinance with the EEE-PC problem, that happened a while ago, MS doesnt want any other Online store on Windows 8 unless MS aproves, can someone tell me if MS has aproved Steam?
