Just don't use a live CD distribution if you use NTFS; or at the very least mount the filesystem read-only.

Those curious about Mammon:

I wonder if this was intended to represent Microsoft. Also, I wonder if the sky is blue. Image

Hmm... looks like they're going back through their archives for titles that could make them some cash.

I wonder if maybe they'd consider releasing a Descent Trilogy including D1, LOTW, D2, Vertigo, D3, and Merc.

1) All Linux distributions have more or less the same level of hardware support. Drivers from software are compiled as kernel modules. If you mean out-of-the-box precompiled drivers, then one of the super-bloated ditros like Mandrake or the less-bloated Redhat is probably your best bet. 2) All Linux...

It's definitely a Photochop, but the backwards American flag is real. In fact, in complete irony, a page describing why the American flag is backwards on the guy's arm uses the very picture above to demonstrate its point (minus the Photoshop additions, of course)! http://www.flagpride.com/news/soldi...

Only one side of the patch can be sewed to the fabric. On the other arm the flag is facing the right direction!
