Why not give away the hardware? It's all made in China by Leveno now anyway.

Shareware ain't freeware.
ummm ... it's describing what they are giving to foreigners.
Including hardware, for free.

no...access to hardware over the net. No box is going anywhere.
Damn you, you beat me too it!!!!
I could care less what computer system people use so long as it isn't subsidizing the Chicom military, or threatening to put US businesses or workers out of a job. This is a whole different ball game.
No, not jealousy. No more than a talented musician is 'jealous' of ashley simpson or brittney spears. The ones interested in excellence in what they create don't get jealous, they just wonder how most of the public can eat crap and think it's good.
IE is crap. For awhile it was better than netscape in some areas because of the horrible shape of netscape's rendering engine (refreshing sites on window resizing--wth??).. but microsoft's insistance on ActiveX and the security problems in brings with will be one of the things that lead to the erosion of market share for IE.
Like ashley simspson, most companies plant the seeds of their own downfall, but then when it happens they blame the band.
Had both of them ... ah, the memories.
Nah. And we don't make it look easy...it just is. ;o)
Some critters are just so predictable that you just can't help but rattle their cages...just to see how easily riled up they get.
Yeah, yeah, yeah (to quote the Beatles)
Heard it all before, ad nauseum, since 1995. And yet, guess who's still #1. Wait, let me check. Why it's Microsoft!!
Ha! I win the pool! I bet that Brass Buzzard couldn't go 15 posts without claiming that Linux was a product of the Chinese communists! Thanks, BB!!
Nice. Has a certain ring to it.
Maybe GE can have multiple nicknames.
Sure! I'm game. :o)
I know you'd like to change the subject, but FYI Firefox market share is slipping while IE is rising, so your supposed point is wrong anyway.

Dammit!! I figured that it would take him AT LEAST 20....

Multiple lies. There was no pool, I'm no buzzard, and Linux is not the product of communists, rather they get free copies of it from the US where IBM and others develop it.
There was a pool. And I won. (Thanks again!)
You're a Redmond shill. Hence, a buzzard.
You've said as much in the past.
And Microsoft gave the source code for their OS to the Red Chinese.
Deal with reality, man.
Sorry, mate. Better luck next time. :o)
I'm sure you guys think by calling names endlessly you're somehow making up for all the links and facts I post. Keep thinking it.
