You have your opinions and the rest of us have ours and to make a very long story short.... guess what? we are actually entitiled to them !.

Just dont try to cover for Nokia in any way or form and dont try to make Microsoft anything good and you will be fine in this forum i am sure.

Why oh why do people try to stick up for Nokia really dumfounds me and when they do i really get the bollockache.

This sinister decision to bring Ecrap into Nokia has gone for some time obviously since way before the release of the N900 so bearing that in mind WHY did Nokia give us this so called FLAGSHIP and 4 updates later decide to squash Maemo leaving us all in the lurch.

For me if you even try to defend the actions of Nokia it make a lot of people on this forum VERY pissed after spending out 500 quid plus for a device that has basically been dumped by its maker.

This community is struggling because of the closed components or we would have had a good fixing update long before now especially on the NO FIX which now is an endless and complete halt.

If people come on here and start to say things like Meego was being worked on behind closed doors then straight away its gone the wrong way.

IF Meego does come out trumps it certainly will not be Nokia that perfects it in any way or form.

Please remember Maemo is the OS of the N900 not Meego and to be dumped on like this is just no way acceptable, now its going pear shaped simply because all talk of Maemo has ended and we are left with neither Maemo or Meego from Nokia.

There is the reason people will get pissed !!!.

This is not on topic and i am so sorry for doing this, but i need some admin help (maemo.talk)
i need to change the title of my custom brightness no als, since i just made a EXTREMELY fast way of disabling the light sensor and still using the normal brightness the N900 uses.


again very very very very sorry for doing this, but this thread has some users in it and hopefully some one can help

just PM me, no need to make this worse.....

If I remember correctly, he's a fellow atheist, more likely he's trying to buy his place and clear his name in history books. Or he figured out he won't be carrying all that money to his grave so what's the point of owning billions?

But no matter the reason, one has to give a credit where credit is due, and the world would be much better place if there were more people like Mr. Gates. For example, I cannot even imagine that buffoon Ballmer following his steps. In that regard, no matter what motivates Bill Gates, his behavior and persona are much more preferable, and applaudable, than the one of his successor...

This thread is good, a lot of interesting stuff being said. Well, for the most part, we obviously should all ignore the troll in the corner, that feels butt hurt because he bought the N900 a year ago ... Please abill_uk let it go and leave.
