--0-472307128-1205398971=:73169 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit I agree with the observation that HP is the best of the major printer manufacturers with respect to Linux. I recently purchased a Canon iP4300 and had to make do, at first, with using one third party driver for monochrome printing and another for color. Only lately has Canon come out with Linux drivers on its Australian and European web sites. However, as much as I appreciate HP for its accommoation to Linux users, I'd still pick my Canon. I'm now working with my Canon quite nicely, though I wish it had the utilities of my retired HP. I like that my Canon has separate ink receptacles for each color. HP has tri-color cartridges that are very wasteful... as soon as one color goes, you have to replace all three. I like that the Canon ink cartridge does not include a print head. Print heads are the miniscule delivery systems that transfer the ink to the page. Canon print heads are semi permanent elements of the printer, part of the carriage system that holds the ink cartridges, but separate from the cartridges themselves. The Canon print head is not terribly expensive to replace, about $40-$50 (not including shipping), and they last a long, long time. Canon's print heads are designed to be conveniently and easily replaced by the user. I have taken out and reinserted the print head on my Canon Pixma and I can confirm this to be true. Epson's print head is also separate from the ink cartridge, but I understand that it can only be replaced by a technician. On the negative side for HP (IMHO), its ink cartridges include the print head. This is one reason why buying third party HP refill cartridges is riskier than buying third party Canon or Epson refill cartridges... with HP you're replacing a new print head along with the ink. Not only is it usually unnecessary to replace the print head along with the ink... you may be installing a print head in worse shape than the one you're throwing away. I'm seriously considering buying a CISS (continuous ink supply system). If I were to stick to, or go back to, HP, I would definitely go with a CISS because of HP's wasteful ink delivery systems. I have not seen any CISS sold in Israel, so I'll be buying directly from overseas. The RIHAC system looks very high quality and reasonably priced. http://www.rihac.com.au/ I hope that customs won't be an issue and that transporting of ink won't necessitate some official from puncturing the ink containers. If anyone has any experience with this, I'd be grateful to hear about it. J.

Who would - and how could they - sue Novell for copyright infringement based on any lawsuit Microsoft initiates for Linux patent infringement? What is Novell's legal liability for anything MS does that is not clearly specified in their deal? Novell wouldn't be suing the Linux user and therefore isn't violating the GPL.

It doesn't need to - and probably won't - state that MS's claims lack merit or are otherwise FUD. The GPL has worked well, up to now.

SuSE favors interoperability that will be open source; Microsoft doesn't. Guess which one will prevail. A valid concern is that Microsoft will fork the SuSE distribution with proporietary code in order to erode the open source community's continuity. The move is widely seen as Microsoft's attempt to eliminate Linux as a significant player in the server business. They've done this before. This strategy of coopting or buying businesses is jokingly called the "roach motel." Partnering or purchased businesses go in - but they don't come out. Partly, the boycott of SuSE is a protest against thinly veiled extortion. Microsoft has stated that while Novell will enjoy an immunity from Microsoft lawsuits on various patents (lawsuits that may not have merit but might damage businesses that service and maintain Linux distributions), other distros will be fair game. So, this isn't simply about punishing Novell for dealing with Microsoft. It's about protecting the Linux and open source continuities from a very real threat that has historic precedent.

Re: paying "Bituach Leumi" using Firefox
--0-1301579810-1158225621=:47990 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Thanks, Julian and Josh. Note that IE is *not* explicitly mentioned by name in the entire document. It is *implicitly* referenced as an Operating System (OS) component. Given the anti-trust case, Microsoft wouldn't want to go back to court arguing that IE is an Operating System component. Would you call it an OS component? Is it necessary for the operation of the rest of the OS? Can it be uninstalled without compromising system operation? Isn't it an application? Then again, if your philosophy is that software can only be used with the explicit consent of the IP owner then it's a moot point. I think that there's quite a bit of gray here, though. Microsoft's tendency to lock up markets, especially the Israeli market, can't be without its occasonal double edges. ;-) Julian Daich <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: El jue, 14-09-2006 a las 01:20 -0700, Michael Jaffe escribi�: > --0-1273685446-1158222022=:23906 > Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 > Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit > > Julian Daich wrote:By the way, you will need a MS Winows (sic) license to > legally use IE. > Why?

Re: Red Hat SysAdmin Course
--0-481231148-1157694379=:3117 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Actually, the Red Hat course I was considering does not result, by itself, in any certification. It is part of a sequence of courses (RH Essentials, SysAdmin, Shell Scripting minicourse, Networks/Security) leading to certification. And the last step in the certification process itself is supposedly very demanding, an 8-hour exam that includes hands-on tasks and problems. You can check out the Red Hat site's training section. The indications from John Bryce and Red Hat tell me that the course is indeed knowledge or skills oriented, not just for certification. Then again, I have no personal experience with the course or its cachet in the field. Hence, my inquiries. Also, are there other frameworks out there (in Israel) for Linux instruction? Thanks!
