1. Comment - My father's laptop: A humble machine's simple lesson

   (Sep 25, 2009 - 8:16 AM)

   my English is not perfect but I'll try to say it by copying some of the the other commenter's responses that seem like what I am feeling . .
   
   Thank you for touching my heart today... I needed that...
   Sorry about your loss
   My sincerest condolences to you and your family Carmi. You have made my day everyday for years since I read BetaNews because I feel that this is the only place I can come to read things that I like and noone else around me understands, I live in a third world country, in a rural area, for that reason you have become like a friend for me . . and I really feel sorry for how you must feel, I know that talking about the laptop is just a pretext and you just needed to share your pain, I completly understand, and you should rely on God, I know this last comment is very personal but you made me feel like I can say it, bacause for years I hae seen this site as a very techy site, but this is the fisrt time someone gave it a Human side, this is the first time someone says something with their hearts.
   
   You know all of your readers are with you and your family . . May God Bless you always . .
   
   Sincerely . .
   Noel.

3. Comment - Beta, as explained to the masses

   (Apr 8, 2009 - 10:08 AM)

   Gmail can call it Beta, Alpha, Gamma or whatever as long as it works, it's just fine for me. . .
   
   and I think this is how most of the 100,000,000 users feel about it.
   
   (however I like the beta tag in betanews :P)

   i dont have a high end pc (yet) so im keeping xp for a while . .

   i also have linux and osx but i like windows better for my everyday computing and gaming . .
