Apple Care is also paid phone tech support.

There are a few that do this: http://packages.ubuntu.com/karmic/webcam http://packages.ubuntu.com/karmic/webcamd http://packages.ubuntu.com/karmic/camgrab

Yes laptop components are expensive. ??

Yeah with ubuntu they have it set to never remove older kernels automatically. Eh. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeam/removing-old-kernels

I read someone else talking about the 90 day thing. The license appears identical to what has been up there for years. meh? http://web.archive.org/web/*/http://www ... licies.xml

I'm curious if this is running via a wine blob. There are already people playing TF2 on mac and linux with wine which actually works pretty well... If someone gets the beta please poke around and let us know. :)

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubu...ce/linux/+bug/510571<BR><BR>HAL is removed from this version of ubuntu. So that may be what is going on as well, if Virtual PC is freaking out. 10.04 works ok in latest version of virtualbox.

My grip is that core i5/i7 turbo boost does not work with the 2.6.32 kernel. You must roll your own 2.6.33 or later kernel...<BR><BR>It's a minor acpi thing that could probably be backported.<BR><BR><BR>HAL was removed for faster booting, among other stuff. Seems to boot a bit faster, but...

drag is probably one of the most famous / knowledgeable Linux users on ars. Desktop and admin stuff...

This saddens me, coming from an Ars editor. Are you just counting page views vs. people who leave comments? People browse the internet and look at pages for sometimes just a split second, or don't care to comment on that particular subject, though that registers as a page view. Without the...

It's not just the articles. People are here for the discussions! Ars: be nice to all users - adblock or not. If a user makes an insightful post, that brings you web traffic, hits, money, etc. Leave a person's moral choices to themselves.

iPhone dev forums are worthless. Rarely any posts and you aren't missing anything. No responses or input from Apple employees or devs. Not sure about the internal OS X dev forum, but hopefully it's better! The iPhone dev $99 makes sense as you are registered to then make iPhone apps and sell...

Brown gnome folders look bad with this new color scheme. Get rid of all of the brown, I say! :) Make the default Nautilus folders blue, and Nautilus grey. That with a purple background will make it look nice like this: http://imgur.com/Aymxd.jpg :P

Yeah OS and software security updates are more critical than anti-virus software.

For vbox 3.1 run this:<BR><BR>sudo /opt/VBoxGuestAdditions*/uninstall.sh<BR><BR><BR>Or running the installer with "uninstall" at the end of the command line.<BR><BR>http://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/4039

I think it will be a luxury item. What is more smug than a $500+ large iPod touch?<BR><BR>I think apple should have made a netbook.

That was the biggest mistake. :P I've never seen so much crap-ware, bloat, and other crap than on HP machines out of the box. If you buy the 'business' models of any brand (Dell, HP, etc) those tend to just have just Windows and no trialware. I often tell people to do that to avoid the mess...
