I'm glad that you agree that this means they arn't really that great.

The vast majority of IIS sites run on Windows NT, which is fundamentally
flawed (as admitted recently by Microsoft).

A huge difference if you are trying to understand the nature of
knowlege.
Many people here are saying that the only way you can "know" something
is by using the Scientific Method.
I'm saying poppycock.

Lets make things clear here Pete. You and I are the two only people that
got that problem... Of those particapating in the discussion we are the
only two using Mandrake 7.2. Since nobody else got the same problem it
looks like the problem is solely with Mandrake.
(I have found similar example code to [for (;;;) malloc(1)] that indicates
that Linux indeed has a problem with memory allocation and the kernels
handling of it)

I think there is a tiny problem with that: the EU.
There is a considerable anti-MS sentiment brewing in Europe,
and the fact that Open Source is not bound to a single company
(or nationality for that matter, there is still a nationalist
anti-American bent to some Europeans, even in high places)
starts looking very interesting to some people in various
governments.
Quite simply, as long as EU regulations are not harmonized with
US law, and given the sorry state of US IP law this is not
likely to happen very soon, OS programming will move quietly to
Europe if MS starts deploying their legal might (let alone the
trade wars that will ensue if they actually manage to outlaw
it).
Just my HFL 0,02 YMMV,

Has nothing to do with disk space, but user energy.
When I'm sitting here paging through news, hitting the space bar to get
each next page, it takes me 2 or 3 extra pages to get through your
message. 3 pages of repetitive useless data (after I've already read it
the first time.. I wont say anything about whether or not its useful to
read the first time) that waste my time.
Further, it causes your messages to take up 2 or 3 times the amount of
download time ... which is less critical than it was in earlier years,
but even a DSL line can be saturated in a full house.
And, last, violating netiquette is rude reguardless of technology. Did
it become no longer rude to fart at the dinner table when air fresheners
were invented? or fans? No, it's still rude to lift a cheek and rip a
loud and smelly one. Technology doesn't change that.
It's still rude to waste my time and bandwidth, no matter that
technology serves to reduce the impact of that waste as it marches
forward. It's still a waste, and it's still rude for you to impost that
waste upon me.
And even more rude to defend yourself by presuming that you have a right
to consume extra amounts of my disk space just because disk space has
become cheap.
If you want to just admit that you're being rude, no problem. But don't
try to shift the issue on to the reader. Own up to your being rude and
arrogant.

On the contrary, creating a society that hands out rewards on the basis
of inheritance and not merit is a great way to create an aristocracy.
Part of the problem is that you seem to be incapable of distinguishing
between merit and hereditary. This has already been established.
