eh, i think you're a little off the mark there. Badge Engineering is not exemplified by purchasing powerplants from another company. That is a practice which goes back to the very beginning of the industrial age.
Badge engineering is taking an off the shelf product and putting your badge on it.
Two cars that share a chassis/platform, also, are not badge engineering. Is an Audi A3 a badge engineered NewBeetle? I think not.
Yeah, ditto. It was either that exact machine for me, or whatever Powerbook I had at the time. I hardly remember which was first. I'd already been using FreeBSD and OpenBSD for a year or two on PC hardware by that point.
What about radiation? we still don't know where all the heat comes from that our planet generates internally, but one of the things that generates it is radioactive decay.
I met airforce officers at a computer show in maine years ago, who were active developers of OpenBSD for the AF. Also, from what i remember, the navy started using PowerMac's years ago for the same reasons.

I just can't help asking myself, What Could Possibly Go Wrong?
It is tetraethyl lead - just like cars used.
Thats a seriously optimistic read on the situation. https://www.faa.gov/about/init...
Nearly the entire worldwide fleet of piston powered aircraft still burn leaded gas.
No. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T... Thorium reactors *burn* Thorium, and *produce* U-233.
But it is nice to know they are responding to relevant FOIA requests. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/...

Eh, not so. Kodak is a leading producer of Medium Format sensors. Sensors that are much finer instruments than even the $8000 canon pro cameras.

Its all a matter of perspective. I'm quite certain dinosaurs still coexist with humans, in fact, we seem to enjoy them batter dipped and deep fried.
Now we'll only be able to read the news through a DRM-114 Confabulator.
Is that petabyte full or empty?
Yeah, ditto. It was either that exact machine for me, or whatever Powerbook I had at the time. I hardly remember which was first. I'd already been using FreeBSD and OpenBSD for a year or two on PC hardware by that point.
yeah, surplus center has great random industrial parts on the cheap. Also maybe get to know the local steel scrap recycler.

Actually, the Aluminum Industry is *why* we have hydro dams on the Columbia. Grand Coulee only happened because of a long term contract with Alcoa.
