It's been up for quite a while now; it's a good description of Linux in general. Reminds me of discussions in LQ: the older & more experienced, helping out the 'younger' ones eager to learn.
Seen it, been around for months along with several threads on it already that have been moved to General where this one will be moved since this is more suitable in the General forum.
heh heh. i agree. plugin checks are annoying at best. ironic that this ibm/linux commercial didn't take into account linux users running either the mplayer mozilla or xine-mozilla plugin. watching trailers at apple.com posed no problem...

Can we choose different words to describe your question? I really find it unecessary to use such words on an open forum that could easily offend others. Thanks.
