Microsoft's "Immortal Computing" Project
SeenOnSlash writes "Microsoft is working on a project they call 'immortal computing' which would let people store digital information in durable physical artifacts and other forms to be preserved and revealed to future generations, and maybe even to future civilizations. The artifacts would be designed to make the process of accessing the information clear with instructions in multiple languages or hieroglyphics. In one possible use, messages for descendants or interactive holograms might be stored on tombstones. The project was revealed when their patent application recently became public."

Since when is everything on Slashdot actually news?
Anthropic principle: We see the universe the way it is because if it were different we would not be here to see it.
I know that Microsoft dishes out a lot of marketing bullshit. I also know that many people blindly follow them without ever seeing what the alternatives are, which is NOT what I have done.
I have used Windows, 5 different distros of Linux (SUSE, Ubuntu, Knoppix, Mandrake, and Gentoo) AND OSX. And you know what?
I like Windows the most. Sorry for being an "evil consumer" for using what I like the most out of all the options. I mean heaven forbid I actually buy what I like...what kind of consumer does that?
