Every OS Sucks Video

The First Video Game: SpaceWar! (1960 on the DEC PDP/11), The Sad Irony of SCO, more evil than Microsoft!, Virus Poses as a Leaked MSN Messenger Beta!, Peter Quinn, CIO of Massachusetts, announced that he will resign, effective in January, from his post, due to flack that he has gotten for standing up for the OpenDocument standard, Women Now Out-Number Men On-Line, Windows WMF metafile flaw allows system compromising behavior, Star Trek: TNG “Beep” Badges in the corporate world, Return of the Commmand Prompt!, Microsoft creates “Monad” to add Windows shell scripting… Ad-Ware Writers take advantage of the Windows Exploit! (By the way, turns out I WAS right about SCO Xenix, check out this quote: “SCO produced XENIX, an Intel 8088 port of AT&T Unix System III with some BSD-like enhancements, in 1983.” Good memory, huh?!?) HAPPY NEW YEAR!
