If they can make the nearly 2 mile hike up my driveway and manage to not get et by the wildlife they have proven their (wo)manhood and deserve a cold one.

I'm stuck with Wildblue as my ISP and seeing that I can barely stream anything from Hulu or Netflix without having to pause the show every 3 minutes or so to buffer I doubt that having another dish and paying another $70 a month for DirecTV is going make much of a difference.

Please bring real broadband to us poor rural folk! I like the 20minute drive to my mailbox (not that there is anything in it...) but I do not like the 8-16kB/s connection with random bursts up to 60kB/s.

The subject basically says it all. Having a bunch of shit on the desktop just makes me cringe. I like my desktop like my women... bare. ;p

But really it's just not intuitive to minimize or move a window to launch another application or access a drive.

I installed this the other day to see if it lived up to the hype...

Frankly I had a hell of a time with it all around. It had a kernal panic attack nearly everytime I tried to boot it. Also, it was unable to find my nic card or my scsi card... Wee, fun.

Bah. I'm sticking with Redhat.
