What everyone looks for in an emulator is a "cycle accurate" simulation of the hardware. Its pretty tough to do with any system loaded with custom chips, even more so when its clocked at an oddball speed (relative to PC clocks) like typical NTSC/PAL timings. Both the SNES and Amiga meet both criteria.
These aren't SunRay terminal type devices, but they might not have been common or available outside of the US and were quite the rage in 2000-01. Look up the Netpliance iOpener, 3com Audrey, and the Sony eVilla. They were sold to home users at highly subsidized prices with the expectation that a 2 year dial-up internet subscription contract would pay off the cost of the hardware.
This tidbit was posted today. It appears that its been a ratings success... for a Friday show anyway. NBC is even trying to compete with a new show that would attract a similar audience in the same time slot (Grimm).
The model has been tried before with those "internet appliances" that came out ten years ago. Granted they weren't portable, but they were cheaper then the average desktop at the time and were designed to strictly surf the net. Nobody bought them back then (except for geeks that hacked them into usable machines). Larry Ellison's dreams were crushed when the Think NIC went nowhere.
Funny, the only.NET app I have ever written from the ground up interfaced with a MySQL server. It worked pretty well, but the ADO.NET connector for it was in its early stages back in 2004 and not up to the ease of use of Microsoft's provided database connectors.
FWIW, I have seen Java applications require a specific version of the JRE to run properly. I've had stuff break if they were, for example, running on JRE1.5.0_06 instead of JRE1.5.0_05..NET is no exception, plenty of stuff out there demands the.NET 1.1 runtime be installed even though 2.0 is present in the system.

Speakers really haven't changed all that much in 25 years. Many audiophiles wouldn't even consider cone drivers in a box for speakers, they all go for huge electrostatic speakers, designs of which remain largely unchanged since the 50s-60s.
My picked out of the garbage/purchased at thift stores/garage sales stereo sounds better then most newer systems.
Amp: Sony STR-434, sidelined due to bad caps I think but sounds better then the Pioneer VSX-2000 that in its place
Speakers: A pair of EPI 250s, 55 lbs each handcrafted in New England. My neighbor was throwing these out!
Turntable: Technics SL-1300 with Audio Technica linear contact stylus
Tape Deck: Technics M14, nothing fancy I don't have many tapes to justify something like a Nakamichi
CD Player: Sony CDP-291, its basic and it works.
I mostly use the system to play back... gasp... compressed music and it sounds very good. Enough so that I could tell the difference in the output quality between various soundcards and my iPod.
The Pioneer SX-1980 is lauded as one of the best transistor amplifiers ever made. It should deliver its rated power, the capacitors are the size of soda cans!
NAT-PT was officially deprecated the last I looked (see: http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc4966.txt ), but I would be interested in a list of products that support it as I have a few IPv4 clients that will NEVER see a native IPv6 stack written for them.

Well it helps that most of Verizon's phones are still stuck on 2.2, since they like to take their time approving firmware updates.

Pass. Jason needs to learn how to make a decent sandwich first.

Wasn't it supposed to be a first-class citizen in Windows Vista? Like one of the "pillars of Longhorn"?
Used to be. Even supported Cocoa libraries, but nobody used it.

The only R&D they do is in marketing. The old stuff was great, today its buzzword filled with a high price tag. No highs, no lows.... must be BOSE.

Neither video was really aimed at the direct public, but to product resellers. The vast majority of which likely never watched the tape.
How does it relate to this: http://tech.slashdot.org/story/11/07/07/0252228/Google-Deleting-Private-Profiles

Meanwhile there has been a sharp rise in bullying and harassment via the Internet. Its one reason why people went with pseudonyms to begin with.
Facebook allows one to make their profile private and not visible to search engines. One has no choice with their Google+ profile.
But if you think you can fix a problem with money (or just money), you are in for a rude awakening.
Tell that to the New Jersey State Legislature about Abbott Districts like the one you referred to.
I used the ActiveSync support without any problems on the "free" account when I had a Windows Mobile phone for push e-mail.
I'm well aware of the 1982 model, Nissan had plans to release the current generation with a diesel engine option.
