Hardware abstraction being one of the more compelling features IMO.
How long you think it would take you to move all the services to that new server hardware you just received, because the current server hardware warranty just expired?
or configuring everyone's different laptop to work with that specific model of router (a nightmare with WiFi).
First of all, I don't consider configuring WiFi a nightmare hell, and I work on IT, doing it frequently. It is one of the things that simply just work.
Second of all, you would need to go through this nightmare for LAN play as well, unless you intend on hosting a lan party to play the game on single player?
That works on cellphones because the phone usually is very close to your body and the screen is small, thus it's hard for someone else to see the screen without you noticing it. Plus, cellphones have to work that way when one key is used for three or four different letters.
That wouldn't work on regular computers, as the screen is big enough for someone behind you to read the password without you noticing.
Yes, let's keep government out of it! We all know all private industries can be trusted to do the right thing regarding emissions and not affecting the environment.
The problem was solved by new technologies invented, developed, an popularised by private individuals looking to either make a buck or solve a problem that they faced personally. Not by any committee of busybodies trying to save the world.
Which doesn't mean things this time will be the same.
Are you willing to bet the life sustaining characteristics of the earth on that?

Well, with VM's you can do that _A LOT_ faster.
I think the big deal here is that they were able to create something that has an effectiveness greater than 0.
I'm not an expert on the subject, but I guess it's easier to go up from 30% effective than from 0% effective.
They should make the airbags on SUVs out of this material!

Agreed. That Monk trailer wasn't impressive at all.
I'd rather have seen some gameplay videos from D3, which look a lot better than that trailer.
Current individual worldwide life expectancy is given by:
CurrentAge + 1 Day + 3 Months + 3 Years
Well, at the same time that electricity usage shrinks in some areas, lowering prices, it would increase in other, increasing prices.
How could you know it is perfect? Suitable, yes. Perfect? Who knows...

All are closely monitored by cameras, and like 3rd and 4th edition, electrum pieces are not accepted.
WTF does this mean?
Yeah, it is not cool, but if it weren't for them, those systems would be left untested and, probably, insecure.
As long as they keep testing without killing anyone or causing major financial losses...
Gee guys, isn't this a little bit too much work just to hide your porn?
Just mark the directory as hidden, your mom will not find it.
Vista is only perceived as the newest Windows ME by uninformed people.
Vista doesn't alow you to access Windows (or Microsoft) Update through IE anymore.
Just to help the April fool's leaked joke, it says Firefox plugins, which are a totally different thing compared to Firefox extensions.
Taco! What's even better than a roadkill sandwich? A couple roadkill tacos!
Yes, let's move all 6 billion people!
Or are you one of those that only care about your country?
Yes, let's keep government out of it! We all know all private industries can be trusted to do the right thing regarding emissions and not affecting the environment.

Time to give up condoms!
And on every build since Windows 2000.
Because he is a developer, developer, developer.
and then realize half of them are stupider than that. Those people are the majority
How can half of something be the majority?
The next obvious step is to do away with the machines entirely and just get a chessboard.
Whoever wins gets declared the winner.
Interesting.
At least there it is admitted that there are cameras...
