But, when HD-DVD-R hits the market next month, HDD space will cease to be an issue.
I suspect the availability of pirated HD-DVD content will make HD-DVD-R drives far more appealing to many. After all, at $1,000 for the drive, you'd only have to burn 50 movies to make up the cost, not including the price of the disks.
The Imperial System draws it's name from the British Empire which once utilised it. The US was once part of said empire, although the Empire has abandoned it's measurement system, now.
Alternately, an RFID receiver for the board itself could be located on the side of the road, within range of passing RFID MINI's, and a few hundred yards in front of the actual sign.

you mean the console that lost 4 billion, and took 40% of the console market from sony?
the console that, going into it's second generation, has a deathgrip on the next-gen lineup?
the console that may very well be veiwed by historians as the biginning of the end for sony?
that console?

"Anytime we get wider acceptance of platforms other than Microsoft it is a good thing."
I would say that is not nessicarily true. Anytime we can get a standard operating system on all computers, it's a lot easier to produce software for a larger number of people. If microsoft and mac users were equal, thousands of work hours would be wasted reprogramming everything to run in either operating system.
Of course, whatever super OS would have to WORK, or you would never get everyone on it.
Then, there's also the matter of monopolies and all associated evils. Just musing, now, what if the government controlled OS's, like utilities? OS's would still be made by a non-governemtn entity, but prices for THE OS would be regulated by the government in a way that is fair to the company's employees without gouging the users.
but yeah, Google+Mac=win.
all Vista discs will be biometrically coded to their purchaser at the time of purchase, using a special USB fob that must be inserted to the computer when the disc is loaded.
This will allow 'hardware enthusiasts' to enjoy vista, and will not be any inconvenience for anyone with a legally bought copy of Vista.
Also, you biometry data will be sent to microsoft and kept on record, for security reasons.
"Time for a bigger study, I think"
Unfortunately, Dead babies are hard to come by. The article gives 100 SIDS cases/year in canada, that's not very many, compared to the thousands of samples taken in your usual medical study. Even if Dr. Researcher were to somehow convince all 100 distraught parents of 100 dead babies to lend their child to science, he would still only have... 100 samples.
The article cautions that 31 cases studied isn't very many, but that's 30% of the average annual SIDS occurance rate in canada. 31% is a much bigger slice of the study/sample pie than a study of other diseases might get (2,000 cases out of how many million cancer patients?)
A bigger study, I'm afraid may not be quickly forthcoming. I, for one, would certainly hate to be the guy that goes around the nation, asking distraught parents if he can borrow their baby's body.
heres how i think this will go down, to the advantage of the human race.
We will ignore global warming for as long as we (the voting majority) can afford to stay comfortable on an individual level without any action.
By that time, the standard of living of basically everyone will be at risk inside of a generation. We'll see a rapid shift in public opinion, and what was 50 years of no spending anywhere will turn into 3 years of a major percentage of the Gross Global Product going into global warming.
The nessicary unification of national interests will leave us more united, and better able to handle the bajillions of refugees storming out of areas that we were too late for. Then we buckle in for the next 10,000 years and wait for it to go away.
OPTION B:
Ivory Coast floods, UN suggests global focus on climate, US takes the moment of distraction and invades a sandy nation, ostensibly to "save the rest of the world from all that oil". That particular sandy nation will, of course, have WMD's. World dies.
This is a violation of the Treaty of Algeron, the romulan empire will not stand idly by and watch as you disturb the delicate peace between our peoples!
Hand over your research and all of your devices to Romulan high command at once, or they will be taken from you.
This IS tyhe first floating nuclear power plant. existing ship-board plants don't count, because they are intended to power only the vessel they are mounted on. The purpose of this barge is not to power itself, but to power a large area. it is a regional power plant, as compared to a small-scale reactor for a single ship.
"64% of online gamers..."
that 4% makes this statistic at least 58% more unbeliveable.
Do we need to distinguish between games found online (pogo.com etc) and online games (WoW, Counterstrike)?

Do you mean to imply that india and Brazil are not, in fact, states? what weird planet are you living on?
