Except that is not the default. Someone stupid enough to run some EXE they found on the internet is probably too stupid to realize they should set up an account without admin rights. And I would argue that a vast majority of people who don't work with computers for a living (and even many who do) would fall into this category.
I don't think you understand my point. They rely on some kind of clock (a hardware clock that toggles back and forth between 0 and 1), but not necessarily on what most people consider to be a clock (one that tracks hours/minutes/seconds).
Until you use one, don't judge just because it "looks no different." The Magic Mouse works very well, and this is coming from someone who agrees that the Mighty Mouse was uncomfortable and a bit difficult to use.
And why is "no middle click" a reason to make it unsuitable for use in Linux? Are you using some distribution that makes middle click mandatory? This is an honest question. I have never heard of that before.
It doesn't lack buttons. It, like the mighty mouse, has one giant button. Clicking is not like the iPhone. There is still tactile feedback when you click. The touch part of it just determines whether it is a left or right click, which makes it a bit more accurate than the mighty mouse. I had issues sometimes with it recognizing a right click as a right click, but never had that problem with the magic mouse.
Actually, his analogy makes perfect sense or else one could argue that when you type without looking down at the keyboard, you're looking at the "text cursor" (the little vertical line that tells you where you are going to input text). Either way, using a keyboard and mouse have the same feel to them. Unless of course, you stare off into space while you type, which doesn't make any sense at all.
Actually, everyone has that GPS-enabled muscle memory. Maybe you need to just exercise that memory a bit. Last I checked, Middle C on a piano is not marked by a little bump on it, but many people play the piano just fine. Beginners need to look at their hands, but with a little bit of practice, that isn't necessary.
Processor relies on a clock, as does the camera, and the cellular protocols, etc.
Yes, but all of these just rely on A clock, not the time where you are currently located. In fact, I don't think any of these would actually care how long a "second" is, as they just use a number of "ticks" of a clock, and slowing that down a bit most likely will have no effect on their operation. And if you're out of service range, cellular protocols are unnecessary anyway.
Where would you get the backup if you only bought 10? One is in your pocket and the other is in the main machine...Or, did you not mean 10 as in binary for two?
There's a cutscene in COD:MW2 that has a type of emergency notification. I actually second-guessed whether it was real or just a part of the game. Granted, I was way tired, as I had picked up the midnight release of it and was up until 5am. Hopefully they wouldn't interrupt the game THAT much in an emergency. If I'm playing against someone in a different region and all of a sudden they kill me 15 times in a row because my screen goes to "color bars" when some 6-year-old is kidnapped 50 miles away, I'm going to get a little upset.
There is still a good dependency on non-Web Applications.
Until there is an alternative, there will always be a dependency. This is a step toward providing an alternative. Sure, it may not be perfect right away, and probably never will, but it will help spur on similar alternatives, if it is at least a little successful.
I agree. A closer metaphor in this case is if a girl went out on the street saying "Do absolutely anything you want to me" to every guys she sees and then getting upset that they rape her because she wanted a hug.
Well, if the captcha is "Use partial fraction decomposition to solve this variable separable differential equation and enter the solution in the box below" then it will definitely deter bored people and stop stupid people...
Um, if your passwords are on that slip of paper in your wallet, they could log in to your bank account online and get your address that way. Also, any shopping site such as amazon, ebay, etc that stores your shipping/billing addresses would make it quite easy.

Fighting off trolls and winning or even if they lose the trolls lose too, then Microsoft gains an advantage over its competition.
FTFY again
But it is business and you expect business to do what will affect the bottom line.

Well your mod just went away when you replied to that comment. Thanks. ;)

95%? Your statistics are a bit old.

Have you used this mouse? If not, I would advise you stop misleading people.

You can easily tri-boot Ubuntu, Windows, and OS X on a single computer.

Oh, and your equation is wrong... pi r^2, not pi d^2, so the answer would be 1/4 of 3140000000000
That, and 1 million nanometers = 1 millimeter, which is much larger than a pin head. The body of most pins is usually less than a millimeter.
