too bad that the movie industry/music industry have much deeper pockets and will keep spreading their propaganda - uneducating everybody on what filesharing is and isn't.
If the universe is expanding does that mean that the gravity at the center of the blackholes in each galaxy is getting weaker as time passes?, I thought that as black holes sucked in more matter the gravity would get stronger.
the moon and various satellites spin around the earth
the earth and various other planetary objects spins around our sun
our sun spins around a giant black hole
what does the giant black hole spin around?

Chrome Vs. IE 8

from the summary: "IE 8 itself consumes more resources than Vista"... and that link goes to an article comparing IE8's footprint vs windows XP footprint... Vista != XP. If IE8 did consume more resources than Vista that'd pretty much kill one or the other, maybe even both... because most people can't afford a computer with 8 cores and 32gb RAM

OI! Are you calling us Aussies un-developed, you testicle! We didn't sign Kyoto either, but now that Rudd is in power it's highly likely that we will... also highly likely that we'll have a recession, but that's an unrelated topic for another time.
Atlanta is a coastal city, so the pollution gets blown away by the sea breeze. Beijing is inland and surrounded by hills/mountains and not subject to all that much wind. The pollution sits stagnantly over the city at all times so they needed drastic measures to deal with it during the Olympics... not to mention the sheer size of Beijing's population compared to Atlanta.
I can see your point, but I can't actually remember when I last broke the spine of a non-fictional book to glean some information. In the real world the computing students will be much better off learning HOW to find the information they need that being handed a book filled with information, most of which is probably not even relevant to the tasks they'll be given.
It's actually better here in Perth than elsewhere in Aus. IInet went out and installed all their own adsl2 exchanges because the got sick of waiting for telstra to do anything. my point is that 250gb is more than enough. per month, it works out to almost 2dvds per day.
you are complaining about 250Gb?!? jeez, In Aus I have to pay $120/month (~$100US) for 25gb onpeak, 40gb offpeak ( that's 65gb/month for those of you who suck at math). I WISH I was in a position to bitch about 250gb/month.

It also seems that they won't be releasing the Linux version in Australia: http://www1.ap.dell.com/content/products/productdetails.aspx/laptop-inspiron-9?c=au&cs=audhs1&l=en&s=dhs
so far no netbook released in aus has come in with the Linux version... I almost found an MSI Wind the other day, but they said there were "delays" in getting the Linux version. I want choice dammit!

yeah, but she's sooo much more sexy than chrome.
even if they did, who cares... it's open source and as long as they stick to the GPL they can do whatever they want with the FF source.

... then what chances do we have of finding a solar system populated entirely by hot large-perky-breasted nymphomaniac supermodels that love nerds?

The internet has all the information they need to know. Just teach them how to search effectively for the information they want.
if you don't mind my asking... who is your isp and how much are you paying? seems I'm getting ripped off, although I never have connection troubles...

this is slashdot, none of us have ever looked decent.
if your supervisors/ bosses are tools then they rightly deserve the blame.
