There also they faced challenges and that leads them to search google/explore blogs/forums and install various packages on their system to verify if that fullfilll their need.

As a user you can choose any one of them and fulfill your purpose. It also shows the kind of freedom this open source thing gives to it's users where you can develop something out of something if you don't like it, and encourages others also for the same. There are some minor disadvantages also that as a naive user you can't find easily which distro can fulfill your purpose or which one should you start with etc. But for this there are millions of blogs/posts out there where you can read about your problems and solutions.

It is beautiful courtesan on whom you spent your computer time and wattage to prove you were her one true lover. You buy her FPGAs and asics. You throw graphic cards at her. You furiously discuss that one glimpse of her with golden b shaped smile. But the affair is going to come to an ugly end. On serious note, bit coin is being pointed at as solution to several problems current currency system has. Firstly bit coin is deeply connected to government backed currency because of exchange and current lack of goods and services available in bit coin. It does provide safe haven for parking mafia money which may end up putting a bad name for all transactions with bit coin. It deeply depends on media portrayal of the currency. Right now it is media darling which may not be the case even few months from now. </pre> Supreet Sethi 2013-05-12T04:10:33 http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi/28375 <pre>FYI.

Traditionally during issuance of currency government should incur net loss by holding some amount of gold equivalent. Not any more. Additionally more than even how much bitcoins Satoshi holds, Who is Satoshi? There was a bloom of exchanges which disappeared. In fact, if you search enough, you will find code written by people doing arbitration between two exchanges. Not anymore. </pre> Supreet Sethi 2013-05-02T05:15:23 http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi/28363 <pre>Hi Replying now since the thread has been revived.

This is a valid concern, however I don't think of it as that big of a problem. Early adopters need to get rewarded, otherwise a new and disruptive currency will never gain traction. The reliance on MtGox is only a temporary concern, as new Exchanges are bound to come up. If you don't like MtGox, don't use it. You definitely don't need to use it unless you plan to day trade. What other currencies do you think are more promising? </pre> Anupam Jain 2013-05-01T11:34:42 http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi/28360 <pre> Can *buntu carry on if Canonical were to pull the plug and close shop today? </pre> Arun Khan 2013-05-01T06:17:29 Search the mailing list at Gmane query http://search.gmane.org/?group=$group=gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi
