Ron Paul is done anyway. He placed 5th with only 8% in one of the most libertarian states in the country. If he can't win New Hampshire, he doesn't stand a chance in rest of the primaries. Not to mention he's way too fringe for the majority of the American people. This country wants universal healt...

eh. I give the same amount of weight to The New Republic as I do The National Review = none.

Oh and along the lines of ever expanding government. Obama coming out and saying he wants to expand government is a bit more honest than all the other who say the opposite but when they get in they do expand, expand, expand, tax, tax, tax, spend, spend, spend. At least there would be no let down as ...

I agree with you, the Republican and Democratic "top-tier" candidates all make me shudder. Obama could prove himself to be different and principled, though his principles are exactly those I don't want in government, after all he wants to expand government, and his rhetoric sounds very much like he...

Pat, I'm a Ron Paul supporter and I agree with you. I think that without question he has his finger on the pulse of the real problems with this country and the direction it is sending us (devalued dollar, war, federal beurocracy, the IRS, etc.). So no matter how many kooks he has in his camp, by far...

I'll just throw in that our current mortgage/lending practices are NOT free market economics. As alluded to by another poster, government reguation played the biggest hand in this. The government requires lenders to lend to nearly anyone, by having FHA, VA, HUD, programs where the minimum requiremen...

That is the single greatest thing that I can say I love the most about FOSS. It's ability to run so well on such meager hardware. It never ceases to amaze me that hardware 10+ years old still runs just as good or better than most hardware only a year old.

No doubt. I know for a fact the OpenBSD does equally well if not a more superior job, but I was singling out SCO because of the post topic thats all.

I hope that whatever/whoever eventually buys SCO (cause that is most likely) they will continue to make such a great product. Seriously, aside from all the political stuff, they make a hellofa solid, light weight, UNIX. I've worked on POS systems that run OpenServer on as little as 64MB RAM, that ru...

I just had a peek at http://code.google.com/android/ and I have to say that Google is going to blow the doors off of Verizon and ATT. The possibilities are endless. Have a look at some of the great demos.

Too bad you didn't name the new dog a linux name. I told my wife my next one was going to be But I love the suggestion of Su for the female dog. Thats good stuff.

I'll leave it at that as I don't want to debate the issue as much as see how others think on it as well. To each his own.

Along the same topic, has anyone seen this http://www.thechurchofgoogle.org/ I got a chuckle out of it.

Interesting topic. I was Christian but now I am a Diest. I find that Religion is the greatest enemy of man and is the root cause of so much turmoil in the world. Note that I say Religion and not Faith, as Religion is an imposed , singular, belief system, i.e. Islam & Christianity. I had my falling o...

Hey Tech Show, have you checked out http://www.freecast.org/ yet. Seems like a really great idea P2P audio streaming.

Pat that is so cool that you are having Mark on. IMO I think he is a great mix of Linus and RMS, with Redond Bill's pockets. I can't wait to hear the interview.
