Hi, thanks. You should try it. You just might like it. I'm really not trying to inflame your #3, but in attempting to speak on behalf of other Linux users, I'll tell you that we feel that it's that good of an operating system experience; we simply want to enlighten Windows users of their...

Hi gnome, Just out of curiosity, why the utter discontent with operating systems other than the Microsoft (I don't know anything about Apple myself)? Have you used other systems before? What is actually wrong, in your opinion, with Linux? As you know, I think Linux is fantastic, so I'd be...

Hi, ratboy. I think you missed my point. Of course I care.

I am anti-Matlab... support OpenSource software!. Ok now that I got that out of the way :D.... doesn't Matlab interface easily with C source code? If I remember correctly it does. Here's the TWS C API, naturally it's open source. Enjoy. -kt

It's appalling that there actually some people in this Country, where freedom of religion is instilled into it's Constitution, having a problem with the Congressman's religious beliefs. Do you also oppose Jewish practices. Or how about the 2 Budhists in the 110th congress.. do you oppose...

Why pay $129 when open source OSX editions are free?

This guy doesn't quit. Delusional charlatan, plain and simple. Pat Robertson Robertson said God told him during a recent prayer retreat that major cities and possibly millions of people will be affected by the attack, which should take place sometime after September.

Yes yes! '07 is gonna be a good year! I'm gonna have to bring my wide-screen into my office for the upcoming hearings. Should be quite eventful. :) ps. So before I'm once again labeled as a liberal... well, you're wrong. I'm quite conservative actually. Equating conservatism with being...
