I do not think that a kill switch is good for anything -- regardless of whether or not it is only for official-market-regulated products.
People see kill switch as bad because it violates the freedom to install anything on their phone. It is right in Apple case, because Apple's App Store is the only source for app on iPhone. But it is different in Google case, as you can install programs from another sources other than Google one.
So if you want some app, just find a source for it. Google kill switch only work for app that come from Googles App store, and that will make sure Google don't spread malware or anything bad. Have you ever thought of upgrading windows and then your computer is infested with malware and bugs? Well, there are bugs, but not not malware.
No, Japanese culture does not really calue intelligence people, they just value people with famous university degrees. And also don't forget that there are a lot of Japanese mangas about sport, or have a big muscle, un-defeatable guy as the main character.
Vista is good enough but it has several bad things so people is still sticking to XP. For example, it drain my laptop battery life 25% than XP, and that is with aero turned off, just this reason alone make XP my OS.
A netbook with tablet form factor should be good, Gigabyte has already made one but still not good enough. I not only want something that I can bring everywhere but also be able to use everywhere. The one from gigabyte is too big and expensive for a netbook.
It also need to be cheap, after all everything I demand from a netbook is web browsing, music and some paperworks. Oh, and it will be great if that netbook can boot in less than 10 seconds (= no windows:) )
Err , a n00b only need to create and extract archives, and I think 7zip context menu does that just find. I don't think an archiver program need to have an interface after all, everything should be provided via context menu.
I have also tested 7zip and Winrar, while 7zip is a bit slower I sure that it does not take 10x as long as winrar to uncompress something. I also found that 7zip have better compression rate than rar though not much (at least with my files).
Have you read the comic? Google has some really cool ideas for Chrome, making it quite different from another browsers, so you won't get 'another firefox' but an entire new browser. I hope it won't end up like another google products which never go past beta.
I mean now Linux is easier to use than Windows, or at least pre-installed linux's machines are easy to use, as I still can' get my laptop wifi card to work.
And how is vista doing in taiwan? (I haven't read the article yet)
I understand your point, but I don't agree that Tibetan should stay with China's modernizations as a citizen of a country that has over one thousand years struggling from becoming one part of china. Freedom has its own price.
that multitasking decreases the effiency greatly, unless they are very simple task. I have alway tried to do two things at a time since I was kid, and now I can read manga while writing at the class, sometime I don't even know that I am writing at all, as i am focusing at the manga. That may sound good for a lazy bum like me, but now I can' concentrate in anything longer than 2 minutes:( Guess that I have to change my habit after reading this.
I can't believe that dvorak could be so near-sighted, 'If you give a man a fish, he will beg for another, but if you give him a fishing rod and teach him how to fishing, he can live by himself". If we only give african rice and stuff like that then it will take longer for them to develope a good economy, but if we teach the kid how to use the internet i'm sure they will grow much faster.

Why modding parent down? He is right, they tested Ubuntu on one laptop.

They are not afraid of T-Mobile G1, not Android. Android will have better phone that use it in the future.

Can we have a better comparison? Everyone know that computer caculate much faster than a man with a caculator.

If this version does a better jobs at power management, since gusty gibbon, It has reduced my battery life by 25% compare to Dapple Drake.
Fallout will never happen, only human get wiped away from the planet, and mother Gaia will be happy. As long as we don't use too many H-bombs

there is still 10% percent of IT Professionals want to use Vista? Vista must be better than I thought.
Not all of them going to develope Android, they said they will 'support' it.
