Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

Some good points raised Farhad - but you shouldn't confuse the over-hyping Mac cult with the actual machines and software. Forget all the crappy commercials. If you judge that way, you are guilty of surface viewing and the same vapidity as the marketing spinners.

Macs are good because UI nerds are valued at Apple. The people who work at Apple to develop Mac software are passionate, anal-retentive geniuses herded by a megalomaniac.

I love Linux and OSS too. I wish Apple was Linux- I'd feel much better about my purchases, but so far democracy hasn't produced a better experience for the desktop user. (witness the Gnome KDE war - gaaah!) I'm still hopeful.

I cant belive no one said it yet. This Emulates the video game Kings quest four or five ? wichever he is in the kingdom of daventry. either way he has to go to an island and once upons the island he is confronted by five little gnomes all each distinguish themselves with attributes such as Huge ears for good hearing, the other is a huge mouth for gluttony i guess, big hands for feeling and a huge nose for smelling. each of the characters needed a different stimulus to pass certain "sense" give the guy who smells something nice to smell and he lets you go... I think they based this advert off that game.

I care.

Also I find the video itself disgusting, however the music which has been around awhile is worth the upvote, and cancels out any disgusting mistakes and the use of a WOW gnome in a pirate hat.

If Linux, try KDE first. Then, try Gnome. I think Ubuntu uses Gnome by default?

Dinna he win the, mealy-mouthed, yard-gnome motherfucker award last year???

Hm, someone should rather try to * save http://www.videosift.com/video/World-of-Warcraft-commercial-Nightelf-priestitute, instead of a selfdupe.
Anywho, I'll paste what I wrote there:

Fantastic.

"All I do is stand in the way of the warmasters so that other players get to them.. it started innocently enough, but now people a crying around me and I'm loving it."

Rogue Ganker:
"I waltz around stranglethorn vale and kill really lowbies. Oh yeah, and if they're on a quest, I usually get slightly aroused. In my freetime, I kick kids and stealth behind the nearest trashcan, when the parents come around. It's like, survival of the fittest, man. Law of the Jungle. It's like, uhm, God wants me to kill these weak players, right, because they're weak, and I'm not. I'm an instrument of fate. Oh, and I'm a Gnome, so I stab people down there.. ahah, it's awesome.

World of Warcraft, what's your gank"

That little gnome would change his "you should be allowed to smoke whatever you want" tune once he got t-boned by a high-as-a-kite driver of an SUV being chased by police for armed robbery...

Fantastic.

My only experiences with Vista on my own computers was before the retail release when only the enterprise edition was available. My MS contract at work landed me a copy. Driver support was still really weak at the time. There were no video drivers supporting OpenGL yet, for example, so obviously any OpenGL games were out of the question. But I really didn't have any problems aside from that. I like a lot of the small things they've done. The Gnome-like clickable explorer address bar, the improved wifi controls, the built-in support for image tagging and the "new" indexed search (which has actually been around since late NT4 or 2000).

Ultimately, though, I'm back to XP and I don't think I'll wind up with Vista again. As I game less and less, going back to Gentoo looks better and better.

He's a gnome mage (ie, the shortest race in the game.)

Did you watch "Amelie" recently? That's what she did with a lawn gnome.

I don't get it... why is he so excited.... he just leveled a GNOME!

A match made @ political motivation station.....
Amazonian Red-Head Brit meets Gnome her dad's age, got nothin' against the pair...but damn, she's got 7 inches on him, and agenda.....you think she'll stick it out past the elections?? If her idyllic quest continues to amuse her, otherwise......I say she's of the Clan H.Mills....

Oh, and they met and decided to get married at Shirley McClaine's house in the land of flakeage, Cali-

You're supposed to take the gnome and put it in the missile with lamarr. It's an Achievement. "Little Rocket Man" I believe.

"I'm not an isolationism."

Well thank you, Mr. Paul, for clarifying that question for all of us.


Upvote for the abrasive and whiny tone that comes naturally to that little garden gnome.
