I have installed Arch Linux on a virtual machine. It is probably rad and probably slow.

This is Windows 2000 running on a DEC Alpha.

To be a proper English gentleman, one must have the flyest threads around. Enter English Cut, a blog by some Bespoke Tailor from Savile Row in London, England. For a low low price of like 2000 lbs, they can set you up with the dopest jeans in town, so when you are rolling down the Strand with your homies, or viewing the hangings at Tyburn, or whatever, you will command the respect of the entire British Empire.

Based on this strong advice I would suggest all MS Office users upgrade to Moleskines ASAP.

ANALYSTS FIND NEW [ Microsoft Office 12 ] TO BE AN UNNEEDED PURCHASE
[ Extremely Complicated ] TO RE-LEARN AND SUGGEST KEEPING OLD VERSION.

Unfortunately, the company was a little too successful at making
its innovations unobtrusive. In user testing, Microsoft found that
nine out of every 10 features that customers wanted to see added to
Office were already in the program. “They simply don’t know it’s
there,” Chris Capossela, a Microsoft vice president, told a developer
crowd last week. “It’s just too hard to find it.”

“Some very small percentage of people are going to react overwhelmingly
negative,” Sinofsky said in an interview. “I’m prepared for that.”

But, he warned, Microsoft may still face a tough sell. “Microsoft has
to convince (corporate customers) not only that the new version is
better, but also that there is not a significant amount of retraining
that is going to be required for users.”

Seriously, in this picture it looks like Microsoft dude Steve Ballmer is much bigger than other Microsoft dude Bill Gates. It is a fact that Bill Gates is a wussy little chimp, and we all know about Steve Ballmer’s angry streak. It is clear to me that the reason Bill Gates doesn’t fire Steve Ballmer is that he is afraid of getting beaten up. Look at this picture:

It is obvious that Steve is way bigger than Bill and could easily throw him at Google like so many Herman Miller office chairs. Or he could give him swirlies or stuff him into a locker, as Bill experienced so many times in his friendless dweeby high school career. Perhaps Bill should look at these tips to deal with online cyber bullies, although they may just result in getting his ass kicked.

It seems these are a premium brand of notebook used for blogging on paper. I’m not sure if it’s magic paper or if you have to scan it or transcribe it after you write in it. The first I saw of these Moleskines was at my clown college bookstore when I was standing in line. I thought to myself “oh wow a premium quality notebook for angsty people to blog in, let me NOT IN on this”. And then I came home to find this crap on my Internet too. I don’t know what the point of this crap is, but I’m sure it is going to be as lame as all of the people who constantly jack off about their iPods and base their whole lifestyles around it.

Here’s a picce of Chris’s stuff that he carries around in his pockets. He has both a Moleskine AND an iPod, plus some sort of GNU/Linux wristwatch:
