Did you just say that the writer dying is a blessing? How fucking offensive, especially to those of us who were as close to him in the end as we possibly could be as fans. I hope the death of no-one you care about is called a fucking blessing.
Another problem is not being able to try before I buy. OSX might be 100 times greater then Vista, but unless I can try it for 2 months for free, I'm not going to risk handing over all that cash for a Mac that I might find unusable.
Do not try and entrap the torrent community, for they are subtle and quick to anger. Given the context of this statement I can't see how you could mean it to be anything but that.
So wait are you saying that the "torrent community" leaked these people's private information? Pathetic and disgusting. I hope those responsible are prosecuted to the full extent of the law.
If Google is sick of having to tighten up their privacy policy for every local government that's stricter then their current policy, there's an easy solution. Find the state/country with the strictest privacy laws and make that your universal policy. I imagine the amount of places you'd have to modify it for local laws (such as laws that require you to retain data longer then your new policy says) will be significantly less and it will make for greater privacy for users all around.
I like what you do, but let's not get carried away here. That's like saying the GNAA trolls were originally hired by Microsoft in order to try to disrupt the conversations at slashdot so people can't spread anti-Microsoft discussions here. The more likely scenario is that people just enjoy trolling forums on their own and thus are doing so.
What's ridiculous is that everything is done at once. If these terms are for the same length, have the State, County and Municipal positions done on a particular year, then two years later have the President, Representative, and Senator and then two years later have the State, etc. Also every election day should be made a public holiday that all but a very few have the day off for, and those that do work are given a special time (either before they work or afterwards) where they can vote outside of normal hours.
But of course the two major parties benefit from voter apathy as it helps ensure one of them will be voted. So the system is designed to maximize voter apathy.
All the things you list are no excuse for you to steal their content. Holy shit, Rakishi was able to get all of the copies in the whole world of the tv shows he watched? No? Was he able to take away ANYONE's copy by downloading it from a torrent? No? Guess he didn't steal it then.
The point is that reaching the heights of "success" that the Google founders have isn't possible for the majority of people no matter how much they try. So the thought "I'm going to become like them" is a futile and unrealistic one for the majority of people.
I believe that people should pay their taxes without the finaggling and that when they don't they cheat society from their tax money. Therefore the above posters assertion that the use of the airfield isn't being done with taxpayers money is an assertion I believe to be incorrect thanks to Google's games when it comes to taxes.
Well considering they probably have 10 accountants who work year after year on schemes on how to get Larry and Sergey's taxes minimized, it probably is taxpayer money. Then again I'm one of those crazy people who think you should just pay whatever your tax is without trying to do a dozen shady schemes in order to avoid it.
Our professional customers prefer to spend a little extra money on something future proofed with HDMI 1.3. You might do better speaking common English instead of marketing speak. People start to stop listening to your words and instead to your tone and demeanor when they detective babble like that.
we aren't going to switch to digital TVs anytime in the next 5 years. Such a bold assertion given that this announcement says it won't happen in the next 5 years. Or do you have links to the same assertion before this article?
OneNote 2007 will get the 2007 interface by 2009. But then, Office will have changed the interface again Are you kidding me? Word 2007 is the first time Word has ever updated its interface. I am deadly serious here. Although they added new functionality, they never updated the interface (the only interface update could be the customisable menus). Ribbons is a big depature from the Office interface and its unlikely to be replaced by anything except the older Word interface by 2009.
That's an important issue. Is the advanced features of 2007 worth $120 (the real price for Office 2007)? From a quick look I can see that the Excel spreadsheet offers much more space then OOo does (OOo, like Excel, is limited to IV). A quick use of 2007 shows that it is significantly better then OOo, however whether its simply eye-candy or actually useful tools I don't know. Fortunately, Microsoft offers trial downloads for 60 days so you can decide if its worth $120 before you buy it.

We're talking about Google not doctors. Nice straw man though.

Its not what it would be, if they didn't do all of the legal accounting finaggling.
Right. And how many people prepare and don't make it for the one that did? Sounds like luck to me.
Having a good grade is often reliant upon having good parents who create an environment conducive to you giving a shit about school.

Heh, like I said people tend to stop listening when they hear such garbage :P
In contrast I've paid for software once it became freeware as opposed to shareware.
The days of Word crashing are long gone, at least in my experience (last time I recall it happening was in Word 98).
