"On June 9th, you added this pro/con to the KC-Defense page; "My friend's Yorki coughed constantly whenever she returned from visiting her Mother-in-Law's home. My friend didn't want to let her precious puppy visit the Mother-in-Law anymore, which really upset the M-i-L, because it cut back on the time they were able to spend at her house. I gave her the KC-Defense and told her to try one more time. It worked! Now my friend doesn't have to offend anyone and she has a free pet sitter when traveling". While we appreciate the work you have put in to adding these products, be sure to place items in the appropriate places. While I would discourage anecdotes and testimonials, the place to put them is the comments sections. Thank you! -Squalor"

"Omar, have you been using the stock Xandros or another flavor of Linux? I've since sold my Eee, but I had found the stock OS to be... Bloaty. Like a 3-weeks dead goldfish, or a $400 HP desktop (with free games!). I had actually gotten Windows XP to run lighter than the original with nLite, but I swore by eeeXubuntu."

squalorking responded to the thread How to handle the new Macbook Pro?

squalorking — Tue, 26 Feb 2008 14:45:20 -0500

February 26, 2008 at 2:45 pm

I really want to say keep the MacBook Pros in the same article. I'm always thinking about this because of cells, but cells don't get nearly as much coverage, so often, it's less of an issue. But the thing that does it for me in this case is that it will be unclear which pictures are the new and old gens. This is especially important with the latest revision because of the larger trackpad. I can see that being a deciding factor for some people (cause it's so damn awesome), so we need to be as clear as possible. I agree with DUIU about the MacBook. PS. To those of you who haven't gotten to use the MacBook Air's trackpad yet; it's amazing.

1. responded to the thread Unreleased products? - February 13, 2008 at 1:57 am

Herro, I was about to create a report on the Nokia n96, but then stopped, because it's not going to be released until Q3. This brings up the question; are unreleased products still okay? We had a MacBook Air article, and Cloudbook article on before either were released, but that was a difference of weeks and days, where with the n96, it'd be months. My thought, especially with devices like the n96, is that unreleased items can easily become victims of spam. Again, this wasn't a problem with the Air because of its visability. What do you guys think?

2. responded to the thread 2008 United States election - February 13, 2008 at 1:53 am

I was up at 4am on morning, and hopped on IRC. About this time, there were a bunch of euros on my favorite channel, #ubuntu-offtopic. So I threw out the question, "who should I vote for?", this being the first election I have the right to vote it. The response came back generally, Obama. So, Obama it is. I have also created a fantasy in my mind about how Obama faught off three super dragons while carrying I pile of orphaned babies. Also, Obama is the only candidate who supports net neutrality. That is my hot button issue, because it's the only paradigm-shifter.

"After taking another look, I reverse my opinion of the specific link, mostly because for space on that site is devoted to ads then content. Also, there's not exactly a wealth of info over there."

"We already have hundreds of Symbian-based phones on the site, so having a symbian freeware site linked is kind of useless, unless it's specific for the n81. Nokia uses the s60 platform, so linking to that site on the Nokia symbian phones would be good. However, after viewing the link, I see that it's for n81 software only. So I think it should stay. Links should be deleted if they don't have anything to do with the product itself, IE, linking to the Symbian site, or Nokia's home page. If it is either a page, or a whole site, dedicated to the product, keep it."
