" Awww, that's so cute !! Can't nerdy-boi afford a Maccie?? But of course you WindowMaker desktop looks much nicer than the BORING MacOSX thingy, right, my sweetieboi?"

I'm just jumping into this flame after having noticed the same thing about the use of OSX. As to the original post, yeah, it's cool that it runs on OSX. Actually really cool, though it does make me wonder whether it is an app written for OSX or that's simply a web interface.

Regardless, don't take pot shots at WindowMaker. It's my favorite window manager, and I'm someone who uses OSX, Windows, CDE, KDE, Gnome and fvwm2 on a regular basis (don't ask about CDE, just don't ask...) Pretty ain't got nothing to do with it, just utility.

Anyways, I'm only responding because using "boi" in lue of "boy" is really fucking disturbing. I mean, I understand the point of putting one's self in a certain mindset when creating such a flame, but it takes a special kind of person to sound like a rich woman with a poodle.
Please don't do that anymore, it hurts my brain.

I hate idiotic self-rigtheous comments like this.

Ignoring the simple fact that it costs A LOT of money to get to this stage with drug research, that money needs to be recouped, and more, otherwise it is not economical and thus no one would do it. Comprendez? Where is your suggestion for the company to recoup the money they invested in the R&D?

In the absence of patents, there would also be no incentive to perform useful research, you would wait for someone else to spend the money on it and then just copy them. Any suggestions for this problem?

We could of course have a system that would probably sit more comfortably in your idealistic mind, but the harsh reality is that more people would die in the long ruin, a lot more, because research would just not happen without the financial incentive (how do they perform simple tasks like paying their employees salarys?).

This is my problem with all these anti-capitalist views, they never present a workable alternative. Capitalism looks harsh in cases like this, but when you look at the bigger picture, it works. I am all for the "whats best for society as a whole" view, its just that I have not heard of anything that beats a free market in this respect.
