  1. Check out the Panasonic Tuffbook line of products on Rugged Laptop/Tablet Suggestions, 2010 Version? · · Score: 1

    I suspect you will find what you need somewhere in the Panasonic Tuffbook line of products. The market to industrial, field maintenance (the people who drive up mountains in their trucks to get to microwave towers and things like that), even the military. Then aren't always the latest technology because the are more focused on dependability and survivability.

  2. Re:I offer my services on Food Activist's Life Becomes The Life of Brian · · Score: 1

    Hell, I'd do it for 5%. These things can be quite lucrative.

  3. Re:His only chance for solitidue ... on Food Activist's Life Becomes The Life of Brian · · Score: 1

    Sadly, that also may just fan the flames. Something about false accusers and the like.

  4. The crazies must be redirected on Food Activist's Life Becomes The Life of Brian · · Score: 1

    You can't just deny something like this, with crazies, they must have another target. Figure out who is a likely suspect, a public figure, someone at work, a neighbor in your building who is particularly rude and say, "No, but I know who is." You already have credibility in their demented eyes, so a good portion of them should believe the redirection.

  5. Re:It could be worse on "Computer Glitch" Responsible For 50 Raids On Retirees' Home · · Score: 1

    True, they would both be dead by now, or one dead and the other in prison for life because the cops framed her for killing him after they killed him.

    I love your sarcasm, but your English teachers were probably all happy when you left. I mean really, "rights of the week", who writes that, and for gods sake, to do it in public, what were you thinking!

  7. Can we borrow that court on German Data Retention Law Ruled Unconstitutional · · Score: 1

    Ours sucks!

  8. Re:You're looking at it wrong. on Should I Take Toyota's Software Update? · · Score: 1

    I want one of those big red and yellow buttons with the words "Emergency Stop" printed in 72pt font above or below the button right in the middle, no wait out of the reach of kids, between the wheel and the drivers side door right on top of the dash where I can slam my hand on it in a faction of a second.

    I agree completely, Bill O'Reilly is a failure.

  10. How do I get one of these in my phone! on Intel Details Upcoming Gulftown Six-Core Processor · · Score: 1

    Or a game boy or something like that. Of course you would have to wear asbestos gloves to play with the thing... :)

  11. Never got the thing to work any way. on Using Windows 7 RC? Pay Up Or Auto Shutdown Warned · · Score: 1

    I tried to install RC on an older Dell workstation. 7 didn't like the network card, the video card and I think it had problems other things as well. I just turned the thing off and left it. I figure that I will install Linux on it again some time in the future.

  12. Re:Riiiiiight... on Pat Robertson Says Haitians Made a Pact WithThe Devil · · Score: 1

    One of my all time favorite books is Small Gods. Great read. Speaking of Terry Pratchett, Good Omens is another great book for those trying to understand religion.

  13. Re:Where's the bloody decency on Motorola Takes Android To China, With Or Without Google · · Score: 1

    You make a very valid point. Our record of inserting our armies into other countries orifices is well documented. Our history of using money as a carrot and stick to get other countries to tow the party line is also well documented. Our government has initiated assassinations of legally elected leaders in more than one country in South America (and likely elsewhere). Our corporations are well know for murdering thousands of members of indigenous populations who get in the way of the corporations "development" of the areas natural resources, often with the support of our military who are directed by our elected officials. But, at least for now, I can still write this in my country (which I love) without fear of going to prison. Sadly, after yesterdays Supreme Court decision, our government will look much more like the Chinese government within 4 years, operated exclusively (instead of just mostly) for the benefit of those people with money, lots of money.

  14. I guess I won't consider the Droid on Motorola Takes Android To China, With Or Without Google · · Score: 1

    I was looking at the Droid, but now I have to reconsider. Sadly, with the size of the Chinese market Motorola doesn't care what I or any other American consumer thinks about their business practices. There is so much money to be made and corporations are inherently amoral.

    Obviously not going about it the right way... :-)

  17. Re:Proof that there's no God on Pat Robertson Says Haitians Made a Pact WithThe Devil · · Score: 1

    His contract with the devil was reviewed by his lawyer first. You must have someone experienced to read the fine print before you sign.

  18. Re:Riiiiiight... on Pat Robertson Says Haitians Made a Pact WithThe Devil · · Score: 1

    Listen again, everything bad that happens in Haiti is the result of a pact with the devil. I wonder what our founding fathers did to get us Bush...

    Not quite the same thing, but any redirection to The Onion is worth the trip. Thanks.

    So, instead of one company poking the other with a stick and getting hit with a log, you end up with both companies starting with sticks and the beating each other over the head with teams of lawyers! Not going to end well...
