1. Miniaturization costs money. I'd rather pay less for a gigantic powerful machine that keeps cool with a massive quiet fan.
2. Laptop screens aren't detachable. I'll stick with my larger external screen, dedicated mouse and keyboard, and still have room on my desk for everything else.
I'm not an Amazon Prime customer. Orders from NewEgg typically ship 3-day UPS and arrive sooner because they ship from TN to IL. Amazon just takes too long if you want free or low-cost shipping.
That's where I am at. I have a desktop PC, and an iPod Touch - not even a tablet. The iPod Touch can go almost anywhere, and for everything else, there's my desktop. Older desktops can be made into a file server, media center pc, digital pbx, but an old laptop is much harder to put to use (even at a lower energy cost).
Like being on a Hackintosh and being concerned that the original version of Final Cut Studio and Adobe CS3 will work and also the trouble of making the OS X drivers work with your hardware.
Those are both cartoons. The software used to produce it doesn't really require Flash as an export format - though it is very low-bandwidth. The content owner can easily re-encode it. You're right, though, that in this case the original format still has a greater value.
Personally, I went through the first 77 Strong Bad Emails, and converted them and archived them on DVD (DVD Video), just because I was afraid the web site would go away before I could revisit it. Kind of nice to be able to watch them on my TV, using a DVD Player remote to navigate Compy 386.
Talking in terms of mere content consumption really puts you more in Apple's camp anyway. I'd love to see all corporate web sites flash-free, for one.
That's almost reasonable. If you have to do something different to target that significant market, and that something also works for the other 90% of devices, why keep Flash around?
Unless it was implemented as a virtual serial port. You would at least be able to SSH into a terminal session on any OS that supports that sort of thing (i.e. not Windows). I was thinking the same, though.
Facebook does have a setting to disallow public sharing of photos where other people have tagged you. The photos are still public, but they don't all come up when someone clicks from your profile.
At least now if their streaming business goes under, the DVD rental service might still be around. They won't survive long in the streaming business once the studios pick prices they can live with for the long term.
That whole recommendation thing they did a million dollar prize for not that long ago - it now can't use my DVD watching to recommend streaming
Yeah, well when the entire library is crap you've never heard of, you really need the algorithm to tell you what to watch. Like stupid teen comedy/dramas like Hannah Montana? Watch the Australian hit H20: Just Add Water.
And add to that, the studios licensing the content are trying to bait and switch Netflix too. Those rates are going to skyrocket when they see Netflix trying to make all that money on streaming alone.

There's always CableCard, as long as you're not on a provider that managed to get a waiver on that requirement.
This is expected to change with iPhone 5 and iOS 5 next week.
I beg to differ (as long as you're willing to ignore EULA's). Been doing it for years myself.
And don't forget these two details:

2. Laptop screens aren't detachable. I'll stick with my larger external screen, dedicated mouse and keyboard, and still have room on my desk for everything else.

Hey, at least Spotify won't leak user data...to anyone but Facebook.
In other news, it takes FOUR YEARS just to get a simple trademark application approved/denied.
Don't worry, the scans are a unique work, and therefor subject to copyright.
Depends on your definition of demonstration, too.
I'm fairly certain that OnStar is connected to the airbag deployment system and so on.

Make that at least 40+x. After all, that's why you're salary...
Sounds like a great tagline for a tv series.
It's on its way... Facebook's games status updates are about as bad as Myspace profile eyesores.

Wow, yeah, complete FAILURE to blur anything. I didn't even have the slightest trouble reading parkerpdx
It's not dual-band. But it is dual-channel (40MHz), so you can still get up to 150Mbps, I believe.
I have this on Tomato USB as well. I love it. Huge amounts of RAM are very nice. Doesn't slow down with torrenting, either.
