I call you a stalker because that is what you do.
You do it and you can not deny it.
Adam is a stalker.
Read my post and the post I replied, probably for the first time.
What you said has NOTHING to do with it.
That is one of the things that show you as a stalker.
Your need to simply attack whether there is relevance or not.
Whether you can contribute or not.
"...what would you call Frank?"
It is also irrelevant, but that is what you must do when you have
nothing of substance.
It is noted you are comparing your actions with someone whose actions
you hate.
Apparently you see yourself as his equal in at least one way otherwise
there would be no reason for your comparison.

Don't misunderstand, I have no complaint about progress in other
countries, but we must at least stay level with them.
For example chip manufacture has moved - it is something that can only
be done with very high tech machines and the machines that "We" started
with have now been improved and are being made abroad. In the event of
some catastrophe could we now make one of those machines is we had to?
Do we have the people with the knowledge? If not we have sold our
security to those who can provide the goods. It is not just that Labor
is cheaper in (say) China, it is the loss of ability when productions
moves there. Pretty soon those countries start innovating themselves and
we fall behind - seriously behind in some cases because their innovation
may include entirely new processes that we simply don't know about yet.
We need big players like MS to support new technology responsibly, but
we also need the communities like Linux to come up with alternatives,
any system that can't handle competition will not last.

NVidia's betas sometimes break one thing when they fix a more important
one, but I've never seen one do anything really bad.

Hi Stephen
Like you, I try to not use the beta's, especially for something like a
device driver. However, I had problems with my 8800GTS that the latest
drivers did not fix, but since installing the beta being offered by nVidia,
everything has been sweet.

xfile said:To be fair, Microsoft has to provide enough resources and "incentives" for
vendors to do so in the same way that Linux community has to do.
If you were the CEO of the vendor, why would you want to spend tremendous
efforts on doing so for the "old" hardware? Will you benefit from it?
Yes, it's called good PR, something many in the computer industry not
only neglected but have scorned and held in disdain.
Will you do things that only have costs but not benefits as a rational
business decision-maker?
A rational business decision maker knows what good PR is.

Average 15% gross profit margin and 3% net profit margin and doing that for
PR?
PR has no use for a company that cannot generate enough revenues to pay
salaries and rent and other expenses.
Even Microsoft cannot force them to come up drivers for older models and you
would think that they ought to do it for Linux?
Well, I have nothing to say if that's how you think it.

One of the things I do in groups like this is remove doubt about some
of the more anal posters. Congratulations, for sure everybody now sees
you as just another hot head like Frank and the irony is I just needed
to push you a little bit, you did all the heavy lifting yourself
confirming you are what I thought you were. So live with it Mr.
Arnold.
So funny!

That's like saying you expect a new car to be completely compatible with all
sizes and styles of air filters. If you don't use the right parts (drivers)
you can't get anywhere. How can you use Linux and not know how to update
hardware drivers? How many driver versions do you expect to be included in
Vista? Do you really think we believe you're that dense??
Honestly, I really don't care. I seriously don't. I expect that when
someone charges up to 399 for their product that it works. I don't care
how
it works. I don't care why it works. I don't care whose responsibility
what is. I only care that, had I spent money on it, that it would WORK!
Why it doesn't....does not concern me at all. I treat this like any other
product I buy.
If I buy a toaster I expect it to toast.
If I buy a car I expect it to drive.
If I buy a fridge I expect it to cool things!
On that same note, if I buy an operating system designed for a PC I expect
it work with my PC's hardware. Especially if said hardware was purchased
less than a year ago. If it doesn't, I don't care why it doesn't. I only
care about the problems I have as a result and the fact that it doesn't.

Based on that half-ass logic, it seems you have been stalking the
entire newsgroup since your thing is to post nothing but endless
ranting, yelling, and screaming at everybody that dares to be critical
of anything you say. Google contains hundreds, perhaps thousands of
your posts where you do nothing but hurl insults at EVERYBODY.
Worse, you are on record claiming you have a right to shamelessly
engage in this disruptive behavior, since in your delusional fantasy
world you've set yourself up as supreme pontificator and judge that
using your words has a right to flame whoever he wishes for your own
self gratification.
That sir strongly suggests the one with SERIOUS mental problems is the
Bozo you see staring back at your from your bathroom mirror. I like
others simply point out the misconduct you and others blowhards like
yourself engage in daily. So the noise you wail against is mostly
generated by yourself and other self-important losers like you.
