Newsforge reports: "In a move that appears to be a coup for Michael Robertson et al, Wal-Mart's online store is offering eight different Microtel PCs with LindowsOS included. The computers sell for USD$299 to $599 and ship in one to seven days."

| Wal-Mart shipping PCs with Lindows preinstalled : Comment 40 of 45 | ANN.lu |
| Posted by Anonymous on 18-Jun-2002 02:55 GMT | In reply to Comment 36 (Darrin):
I think you're in total denial. If you had bothered to read my post, then followed the link I provided, you could see for yourself that the British did
NOTHING to crack Enigma, except to distort history and claim they broke the code when it is painfully evident that the Poles had already broken ALL Enigma codes!
I will post the words of the British codebreaker Gordon Welshman yet once again. Perhaps, if you read it slowly it might sink into your thik skull.
Welshman a British mathematician and codebreaker, who eventually got his book
published in 1979 called "The Hut Six Story," unequivocally states that
the British Ultra "would never have gotten off the ground if we had not learned
from the Poles, in the nick of time, the details both of the German military Enigma machine, and of the operating procedures that were in use."
Get over it, the British lied. The Poles, and specifically mathematician Marian Rejewski broke ALL Enigma codes continiously throughout the war and gave the information to the British and other allies. Then the British claim that THEY broke the codes. What a joke!
As evidenced by Gordon Welshman admission in his book, the British could have done NOTHING had not the Poles gave them ALL the information. He was a British mathetician and one of the principle codebreakers. It took him years to get his book published. The British would not allow it, and it was only when he moved to the United States, that he was able to get the book published. The British did not break any codes whatsoever contrary to their wild and ludicrous claims.
All they managed to do was to translate code, based entirely on the information given to them by the Poles. What nerve it must take to claim that THEY (The British) broke the codes. This is nothing more than lies and a total rewrite of history. It is sad... |
