Apple moves at a completely different pace when it comes to updates and reworking their OS, compared to Microsoft. The PPC part is just one bit, but Leopard does run on PPC machines, so Firefox will still contain both PPC and x86 code for the OS X version. The problem is more that there were a lot of favorable improvements taking place in 10.5 almost coercing developers to make use of them, combined with lots of API-level stuff from the 10.4 selection going deprecated.
Leopard (10.5) was released end of october 2007, 2.5 years ago, and 2.5 years is well enough time to let end-users move on and revision their computing. Everyone knows there are 10.4'ers out there still, and even 10.3'ers (may the Universe and the Great Magnet help them), but dragging excess weight is nothing short of a problem akin to shooting oneself in the foot - just take a look at microsoft and their eternal love for backwards compatibility, and all the hell that comes with it in windows.
The first problem is that it's hideously slow, and bloated beyond belief. A hideous, disfigured freak of a software abortion. The second problem is a tad bigger, and, strikingly, it seems that everyone belching their thoughts on this point appear to be complete, clueless jacka**es: there is no ARM version of Flash. Let's repeat that: there is no ARM version of Flash; it does not run on any ARM based system. There, someone had to break the news to the morons.
...align with its geographical poles. We were all taught this in 3rd grade. Our magnetic poles wander around the planet all the time, and are pretty far off from the geographical poles. This is called magnetic declination, and is something everyone who has studied basic navigation is well aware of.

Anyone managed to find any info?
If this ends up in the vicinity of what most of us are familiar with as mpeg-4 asp (or "divx/xvid" as most people erroneously call it) at around 640*352 of ~1mbps bitrate, then it is soooo not worth my pennies... Actually, if it's around that resolution, I'm not throwing money on it even if it's done with a good h.264 encoder.
I spent one whole year with Lighttpd - and never again will I go back. It "gets the job done", no doubts there, but in terms of managability and ease/versatility of configuration, it just cannot compare itself with Apache.
I make thorough use of it on many platforms, for the reasons that it has a notably smaller memory footprint, runs swifter, and is a bit more manageable than both of the 2.x branches. I recognize the extended, native feature set of the 2.x branches; but I simply don't need any of them; they are not apt replacements for what 1.3 offers. I also recognize the problem with the 1.3 branch not quite receiving the attention it could do with regarding updates (although 1.3.41 has no known security issues at the moment), but I still prefer 1.3 over the 2.x branches. Eventually stagnation of 1.3 will force me to move to 2.2, but I will wait patiently. THTTPD is not a good substitute today.
In many related discussions here on/., oh so many readers have, in various ways, blatantly slandered the idea that EM radiation in the microwave spectrum also has a directly, altering effect on tissue and matter in general - to whatever the extent may be. So, what's your stance now? I have the idea that this lot refused to believe this when it was in the context of f.e. "cellphones being bad for you", but just might be open the idea now that some "good" effect is proven from the EMR. If that's the case, why are these people changing their minds all of the sudden? Why accept this, but not the original arguments regarding microwave radiation?
Was it an alleged Ponzi mastermind in Antigua that was hacked, or was he hacked (while) in Antigua? Come on... We went through this stuff already in 1st grade with Mrs. Applecheeks.
The images speak pretty clearly for themselves, and have done so for a long time. We already know since forever what formations liquid deposits create over time on malleable surfaces.
1. "Any unsaved state was lost" - and this differs how from "modern" OSs? And if you think AmigaOS did not run processes in the background aside from an application one might start and let sit in the background, then you are wrong.
...how certain people (dare we guess what OS they use? Could possible THEY be fanboys as well?!) INSTANTLY tag this "fanboi" etc. when the vote comes from the economy sector. It seems there is no end to the pityful behavior of the tiny minds of the/. grannies. Shoo, shoo! Crawl back under your stones, you hate-sick critters!

EM radation being harmful on tissue? Business with billion dollar ties to the implied products trying to tone down the issue?! No wai.

But what will this convenience be worth if the material is in low resolution, or with notable encoding artefacts?

There was a pretty big pilot, entirely successful one, built in Spain at the end of the 80s.

Wat?
I suppose, yeah. It is after all just a minor revision.
Honestly.
The hate-sick part of the Linux fanboy community is outraged by your claim.
