Heinlein was a talentless, hippy, lassez-faire, right-wing, borderline fascist dickhead. His only good book was The Puppet Masters, which they made a reasonably good film of (though they changed some fundamentals), with Donald Sutherland. Paul Verhoeven, with this film, finished saying everything he wanted to say with RoboCop, and took out Heinlein in the process. I really think this film is a masterpiece of satire. So - critics really ARE that dumb, it appears.

Yeah well can they please ditch the utter DISASTER that is KDE4 and go with TRINITY!! Pleaaaaasse!!!!!!

You got it, and they only support a limited range of kernel options. To paraphrase FatIdiotBoy (Balllessmer) talking about Google v Microsoft (You know Google? The company that will buy them some time this year?) "Its like a 12 yo kid in the ring with a heavyweight" - Yep Steve spot on. You are the 12yo and you know nothing about hardcore comp.sci and thats why now we're in the real world you are finding yourself ceasing to exist.

Just hurry up and die MS, there is a reason you share the same initials as Multiple Sclerosis.

Leave the UK. Get out of there before you need to be declared a Valid Citizen to travel. Seriously, just run.

I've worked for Redflex as a contractor, they were nice folks and good payers. Its such a pity they work for Satan and their soul purpose is to oppress the rights of the ordinary citizen and that every member of the company from the director down to the staff grandchildren should be put to fire and the sword.

Still not buying it, it just can't work except under test conditions.

Well thats a refreshing viewpoint. Damn the torpedoes.

Anyway. All of them from 7 upwards have proved to be:

• Slow
• Stuttery - they all lockup for no apparent reason regardless of platform
• Enormous
• And the menus are still a mess
• And everybody turns OFF the new features and adds add-ons to take them back to 3.6* behaviour. Bit like bargeDOS 7 really

Apparently life will go on though somebody said.

....love bending over and having their anuses enlarged so? Life....Underpants.....Fraternity.......

Haven't you all left the UK by now?

Yeah me too on second thought. In fact yeah, it absolutely is fake. Watch for snopes.

That is one of the most immature and idiotic messages I've ever seen on a website. I think its time we showed them who is really boss in the West.

Nah, MS progs just need a copy of Programming Basics 101, then they might finally make something secure, fast, and that doesnt need 3 gig of ram just to produce a gui. Style guides are for *advanced* programmers, not beginners.

Why didnt he just hire himself? I'm sure there are 100s if not 1000s of people all over the world working jobs they invented themselves by hacking personnel records. The trick is to make sure the office and the accountant are in different cities, preferably different continents, and that the job is so low-key it sits under a bigger hierarchy and therefore any news of audits will filter down with sufficient warning. Ie. DONT make yourself a managing director, not unless its for a purpose that only has to last 24 hours or less!

Yes, Correct, Getting there. There are already "Black Apps" for mobile devices and "Grey Apps" (depending on who's budget you are treading on). Its all getting far too confusing for the Moron In The Street - so dont expect any thanks - but they get protection for free as the rest of us ramp this War up. Arrg, ranting, but you get the drift. Rowry.
