[quote who="Ricoware" reply="8" id="2023619"] In my opinion, StarDock is too focused on the game side of things to even bother with utilities anymore. And if that really is the case, it's sad. [/quote] If the same developers are doing the games and applications, it'll cause problems for sure.

[quote who="starkers" reply="4" id="2023466"]Yeah, that snap of Cowgal was taken the day she got arrested for disturbing the peace/creating a public nuiscance... apparently a passing motorist could see her udder and he ran up the back of a cop car.

[quote who="DrJBHL" reply="14" id="2023189"] I think it was a joke, mickeko. Philly probably would have used an external link to the original story if it were true...and a Judge would never award custody of a child to a team. [/quote] I kind of assumed it wasn't true, but well... Some really dumb stuff has "evolved" into the legalsystems of the world over the years... The fact that I thought there was a slight risk that this has a small possibility of actually being true really

[quote who="Luckmann" reply="14" id="2023114"] What did I miss out on?[/quote] You won't have less trouble migrating to Windows 7 than you would migrating to Vista. It's basically the same thing, just better organized... So what did you miss?

[quote who="Sideshow_" reply="3" id="2022032"] Hey, my PS3 is running linux! YDL to be precise. [/quote] Ok... I just had to reply to this.... :P Yeah, but a stock one doesn't. If someone claims that it does, then even my computer run on linux (which *currently* is not installed on it, even though I usually have an installation), as it obviously CAN have it installed. :)
[quote who="Thoumsin" reply="1" id="2021996"] At a other level, the PlayStation 3 ( more of 17 million unit sold ) is able to run the Linux OS ... Better, Linux can run on Xbox using a Linux softmod who utilizes a save exploit but Windows and Vista are not able to run on a Xbox !!! The Wii is able to run linux too... Without knowing it, a lot of Windows fan are using linux every days... [/quote] Are you implying that PS3, XBox and Wii are running
[quote who="dmantione" reply="23" id="2021966"] Look at it from another point of view: How many Windows systems in the wild have Powershell ready to use? I think very few of them, you could just as well install Bash or Tclsh on Windows. It will not kill the "market share" of cmd. Cmd isn't used because it is good, but because it is there. [/quote] I can rename files, yes, even in CMD. So there's no lack in functionality. It does have a lack in flexib

[quote who="Sideshow_" reply="18" id="2021934"]That is just complete nonsense. What you're saying is that some things that call themselves linux aren't linux. You understand that not every version ships with every package? Linux is a kernel at heart, nothing more. Aside from which, every version of windows has wsh, which will let you write scripts in vbs or javascript. And of course, if you were very perverse you, could do that rename using a cmd batch file.<br /
[quote who="dmantione" reply="17" id="2021924"] You are missing the point: The problem with external tools is, that since renaming files is an OS task, if you need external tools, the OS is missing functionality.[/quote] Pretty much ALL commands that make bash a useful commandline tool are external tools. Just look in your /bin directory...

[quote who="dmantione" reply="9" id="2021780"] So, how do I rename all png files on disk from naming convention xxxx_yyyy_zzzz.png to zzzz_yyyy_xxxx.png? Tell me how productive the Windows operating system is for such a task. [/quote] Simple, I use a file renaming tool.. I'd do *exactly* the same thing on a linux box, even though it CAN be done with a single (too complex for the average user) commandline in *both* OSes... (Windows Powershell is not the old CMD crap...)<
