I have a special "pwned" pic prepard for June 11, 2007 that will embarrass all my doubters.

I wouldn't bank on this date based on my own inside info.
Not saying it CAN'T happen... just doesn't look likely. Consider it a bonus if it does.
The dust is supposed to settle July 1-- just as all of Finland goes into a 1-month Summer hibernation from work. I have no doubt that the next few weeks will see a huge push to get stuff out before that shutdown-- Skype may even be one of them, despite my doubts.
The problem is that you use forums in a rather immature way. I am referring, in particular, to (i) your complete hard-headedness at spelling things wrongly [it is Linux, not Lynix, and his name is Karel, not Karl]; (ii) your affection for PWN'ing people. Just in case you haven't read the signs posted up till now, ITT is not a gamer's forum. It's a serious (in content, not in language) forum where people are trying to discuss/praise/diss the Nokia Internet Tablet device family (plus a few other devices). It is not a forum where you PWN people, no matter how correct you are and incorrect they are. If you know something someone else does not, and if you believe that that something will advance the knowledge of the ITT community, then by all means post it. It does not make you superior to him/her. Nor does that person's lack of knowledge of that particular thing make him inferior to you. In particular, you do not PWN him.
In your particular case, the character we know as euchreprof has come across on at least two different threads as a somewhat immature person in his reasoning. I do not profess to be the god of maturity, or the god of anything else for that matter. It is my honest (and humble) opinion that you stop this "I will post a PWNed pic that will make you all ashamed" bullsh*t. If you do face up to these facts and decide to act maturely and responsibly from now on you will be taken seriously by the others (even texrat :P) and will contribute something positive to the forums. Hell, you might even learn something of value. You just have to stop for a second, re-read all the serious replies to your posts and figure out where you went wrong.
I conclude by stating that even though I am pretty much nobody on these forums and have probably never actually contributed much of "value" for the community at large, I still love these forums and I love the effort put into them by Reggie. ITT is a great resource, so let's stop all the flame wars and keep it that way.
