If I was a proactive sort of person, I would register *ie8*.com from your list, because the day will come where history will repeat itself. Maybe register *ie9*.com too, if you want to be really forward planning.
IE7 is almost as much of an albatross as IE6 was. CSS support is such, that if you want pixel perfect layout, you are looking at a seperate style sheet; and if you just serve the standards compliant sheet, your page will look like ass.
Update all "ie6 must die" campaigns, to "ie7 must die".

You get a double whammy if you use wireless; what with all those large email attachments flying though the air, and some of them getting lodged in your brain.
You're looking at it through rose tinted glasses. There have been walled gardens such as AOL practically right from the "start". The value of the internet grew with popularity, and popularity brought in the noobs, who dived head first into the most convenient bucket provided by megacorps.

Don't get your hopes up for IE9.
All IE versions including IE8 have a subtle knife to hold back web progress. IE doesn't style unknown elements without the hideous HTML5 shiv hack.
Of which these sites are also registered:

The problem is merely one of semantics.
IE6 == web browser // Major problem // No problem
IE6 != web browser AND IE6 == Corporate network app viewer

Spelling has been a remarkably unimportant part of my education.
I can just mash the keyboard, and either Google "Did you mean", or spelling nazis correct it.

I vaguely remember at primary school, the use of friends/enemies lists in the ongoing process of classroom politics.
Apparently some people never grow out of classroom politics, and go on to become actual politicians. "Canada can't come to my birthday party."
Yes but now that can be outsourced to India.
It looks like you are trying to write some bad code for Linux.
Would like to me to obfuscate that?
Bomb! Destroyed! Meltdown!

That's not what your hand crystal says; report to carrousel.

And they would have gotten away with it, if it weren't for those meddling DEVELOPERS!
64-bit enthusiasts?
x86-64 is THE de-facto architecture. Save the enthusiast label for all the retro x86 steam punk guys.
No, it's completely appropriate. Much of the government censorship is aimed at web 2.0 type constructs, which people willingly choose.
But these are completely centralised, and much less censorship resistant than the older internet technologies that GP was lamenting the loss of.
