Just now I hovered the mouse over an MP3 icon in the default
Nautilus 2.18.1 file viewer. File started to play immediately,
but only as long as I hovered the mouse over top the file icon.
Neat!
At this point without further research, I cannot tell you whether
this is a Ubuntu default or as a result of one of the players I
installed.
Linux simply amazes me, how that it does things better than the
Microsoft operating system.
No doubt I may get trollish replies, as this is the habit here in
COLA. Usually these responses result in refuting / disputing /
imputing / ad nauseum. Example, how much the "market leader" is
so much better, because it adds money to their stock portfolio, I
need to pony up the bucks, the otherwise excellent Unix quality
engineering workstation desktops with multiple desktops offered
even a decade ago are amateurish compared with Windows, no one
except Linonut uses it, etc. and etc.

Much of the evidence of Microsoft's arguments has disappeared
from the Internet. Links which I have collected in my research
lead to either "HTTP 404 Not Found" pages or interesting
redirects to pages that alter the original reports. We'll show
you examples of the code used to do that so you can judge for
yourself if you believe a conspiracy might exist. First let's
look at some examples.

In line with the controlled world-wide media, which seeks to
alter the truth to form opinion rather than the reader form it;
are these trollish taunts a part of a conspiracy? You be the
judge. All I can say is that in using Linux for the past decade,
it has beat the socks off Microsoft hands down. The stability
and maturity of the desktop far exceed the so-called market
leader. The IT community is ready for Linux.
