Because tablets are different, because we will learn to work with them differently. And nothing is intuitive, that's a marketing term. All devices have a learning curve, even the famous iPad. Laptops are going to niche devices, most peoples needs will be better served by a device that they will always have with them. No, sorry to use the word, but a whole new 'paradigm' has arisen.
Jobs said the iPad was his greatest achievement. What did he mean by that?
He meant that his tablet vision would go forth upon the land and destroy the textbook. And that this would be a good thing.

You don't get it. Having a right is not the same as having it provided to you.
You asked, "what does this mean, to be a right?". Then you go on to demonstrate your ignorance on the subject. Next time, find out what "human right" means, then comment. You'll do better.
Yeah, cause god forbid that some guy with a million dollars is told he should give 10 dollars to help his fellow man.
Use the road much? Go to school did you?
Then that would be millions, who, like you, are completely wrong.
The internet is not a luxury. The internet is a tool, the greatest, most powerful, ever developed. As someone said in an earlier comment, the internet can teach people how to get clean water. And much much more.
Jimmy Carter actually went inside a reactor that was melting down. Jimmy Carter FTW.
As long as we have Jimmy Carter around, I'm not worried bout no meltdowns.
THORIUM is the answer. You just aren't asking the right question.
"On Dec. 12, 1952, the NRX reactor at Atomic Energy of Canada’s Chalk River Laboratories suffered a partial meltdown. There was an explosion and millions of litres of radioactive water ended up in the reactor building’s basement. The crucial reactor’s core was no longer usable.
With the Cold War then in full swing, and considering this was one of the first nuclear accidents in the West, the Americans took a great interest in the cleanup.
Mr. Carter was a young U.S. Navy officer based in Schenectady, New York, who was working closely with Admiral Hyman Rickover on the nuclear propulsion system for the Sea Wolf submarine. He was quickly ordered to Chalk River, joining other Canadian and American service personnel.
“I was in charge of building the second atomic submarine and that is why I went up there,” said Mr. Carter. “There were 23 of us and I was in charge. I took my crew up there on the train.”
Once his turn came, Mr. Carter, wearing white protective clothes that probably, by today’s standards, provided little if any protection from the surging radiation levels, was lowered into the reactor core for less than 90 seconds."
No, it was the soldier, or more precisely, his superiours, who did not understand how to properly signal them to stop. In Iraq, putting out your hand in the "halt/stop" gesture means "come forward/here".
You don't need heat rays, you need brains and cultural awareness.
A even better way to stop killing civilians to leave their countries entirely.
“As an American, you just put your hand up with your palm towards somebody and your fingers pointing to the sky,” said Sergeant Jefferies, who was responsible for supplying fixed checkpoints in Diyala twice a day. “That means stop to most Americans, and that’s a military hand signal that soldiers are taught that means stop. Closed fist, please freeze, but an open hand means stop. That’s a sign you make at a checkpoint. To an Iraqi person, that means, Hello, come here. So you can see the problem that develops real quick. So you get on a checkpoint, and the soldiers think they’re saying stop, stop, and the Iraqis think they’re saying come here, come here. And the soldiers start hollering, so they try to come there faster. So soldiers holler more, and pretty soon you’re shooting pregnant women.”

The kid should have been roped off for this stunt, not kind of sort of assisted by the naughty vicar there. Even though there was padding a fall with all that gear on could have resulted in injuries. Roping off on the other hand is perfectly safe. Tough for the vicar. That's my Elmer the Safety Elephant for today.
Close but no cigar. The gift was to the US Embassy in Moscow. The inventor was Theremin of Beach Boys fame.
"The Thing, also known as the Great Seal bug, was one of the first covert listening devices (or "bugs") to use 'passive' techniques to transmit an audio signal. It is considered a predecessor of current RFID technology, because it was likewise passive, being energized and activated by electromagnetic waves from an outside source."

For a second there it almost sounded like you knew what you were talking about.

You don't have to own something to benefit. Come on. Antarctica, the high seas... air?

Funny!
Yes, but then they wouldn't be learning on the type of machine that they will be using in the future. The tablet.

I learned math on an abacus. I don't remember if they gave one to everybody. I do remember it was viewable in portrait or landscape.

That's terrifying. Thanks for passing that on. I just sent it to Glenn Greewald, he might post on this, it's right up his alley.
America isn't doing too well on 3, 5, 6, and 7.

And how do you know about these things?
And neither does anyone else. Vinyl is retarded. Literally. Oh, but it sounds so "warm".
You are a lot more offensive than any spam ever spammed in the history of spamming. God, why am I talking to a fukcing troll?

So Africa is going to start shipping its waste to Detroit? Sounds fair!
Good point! You must be "old" too. Kids get coddled too much these days!

And good luck finding it. Most of the time I can't find paper documents myself!
That's right, the SS were soldiers, the korrect komparision would police to Gestapo.
Yeah, and she probably a Christian too! What a maroon. WTF does her beliefs have to do with the legality of her actions?
Simple solution. Legalize drugs.
