The real name of that lake is "Lac Leman" (lake Leman), where the smaller part (the one in the pic) is called "the small lake" or sometimes "lake geneva".
Lake Geneva is not the correct name but sometimes used by...foreigners by mistake. It happens quite often that in Switzerland Lakes are named by their "main" city on it (or near their end point). So one could safely assume that the Leman is called "lake Geneva" but it's not the fact here.
This company lack of any common sense of ethics is just becoming a real case of concern as their "dominance" is now on the decline.
Microsoft will finish like another company who was selling some *nix derivative who is now trolling the patent system...
well I would put it in a different perspective :
That 200$ computers running Linux sells so well in a market were the general technology awareness is low only proves that people don't really mind about the operating system but rather want something to go on the Internet, get emails and write a letter from time to time.
Exactly, moreover with the advent of "massive" miniaturized storage, peak of CPU power most of your devices (that could be a cell phone, gaming station, multimedia system, portable gizmo...) now do in a satisfactory manner exactly what the average user wants.
Most people don't want to play around on the computer they want to press a button, do whatever thing they want then done. They don't focuses on the vector or the medium but on the information being transmitted over. That's the reason why most people don't give a rat ass about most subjects you may have in mind (err net neutrality, the different type of storage, even speed accesses and ''gasp'' even data conservation/rereading over time !)
The computer as a "central appliance" (a technological altar where you give hours of your life to that pesky god) is a piece of antiquated crap who comes from the 50's or 60's where things needed to be bulky, huge, and imposing some due respect. Note that I'm not talking about business uses but mainly as personal use.
I do still use my now old Dell inspiron 9200 (that thing uses a "pentium mobile cpu").not a blazzing speed considering nowadays performances but still more than perfect for my usage (work 99.9 % of the time).
Now what really lacks is a "hackable" mini system like you could do with your personal computer; that's what "sucks" with this technology you have to buy to some provider a device already put together. Because even if you really want to hack your device together you may face the problem of not having the tools and skills to do so (you need a small soldering iron most of the time and basic electrical knowledge).
Maybe one day there will be a "handeld" open standard like the pc but this won't happen that soon because now the phone companies have a strong intent in not letting that happen. Because face it those mobile services/phones are a true cow milk. ah.

Did your God already probed you ? Did he already conducted experiments on cows ? Did he ? /rant-ufo-nut people-conspiracy
to be correct it wouldn't be a swarm of fragments but a swarm of radioactive fragments. "Double bonus"
maybe they LIKE to anal probe people and get dirty with cows. They could be too a bunch of weirdos. space weirdos.
I like binary jokes : ah ah
