Thanks RiOtEr, some things are worth posting. We don't need EVERY news article, but the info that is very revelant.....
sun did this with solaris 8 (intel) for any person that was a registered linux user.
btw, if you read the article, they tell you that staroffice is no longer free. Get open office instead. www.openoffice.org Open office is like mozilla vs netscape....
nothing wrong with posting things that people may miss miss otherwise, its posting everything you can find to increase you new threads, points or whatever.
thanks! i would have missed it
I got my DVD ordered............. w00t.............
Thanks for the heads up..............
Mirroring slashdot and theregister is just our way of compensating for AO lack of a news section.
yes, thank you absolutely. perfect timing, no less...
i hope i made it. and yeah, i suppose i'm a cheapskate?
I do not know if this is revelant information but I thought it was a nice gesture from SUN.Quote:
