If you look at the screenshots he posted (example) you'll see that some of the screens were in the German language or a derivative thereof. Why would a New Mexican power plant have its systems in German!?
Let's not forget about how darn cool a ham transceiver on your belt will make you look...
Anybody who would rather carry an iPhone instead of one of these obviously does not care about being cool.
It seems like this is just another HTC (?) made device... Beside the tts capacity, does anyone know what really sets this thing apart from the Droid\G1\etc???
This may finally be the spark I need to leave ATT, so what makes this thing so great??
Is there a point to this besides just ooh-and-aahing over it? It looks like there are several 7800 emulators out there; could these projects build off the code and use it to design their own games? That would be a really cool model for other manufacturers to follow (ahem, Nintendo)...
If it's expensive nobody will buy it. Regardless of how well it works. For example, if the prius cost $80k the environmentalists wouldn't even buy it. I think that these enviro-tech things just have a zero shot at catching on if they are too damn expensive. Just a thought.

If the government actually TOLD people what they were spending TAXPAYER money on, how on earth could they ever buy things just because they can? The entire American system of government would just collapse.:)
BTW, wasn't Vivek Kundra investigated by the FBI a while back?
The difference between used cars and used video games is the 'retention' of customers, if you will. If I buy a '93 Escort from the local used car dealer, and the muffler needs replacing, I have three options:
Go to the local ford dealer and have it serviced with FORD parts
Go to a third party and have it serviced with FORD parts
Go to the aforementioned third party and have it replaced with an aftermarket part - the maker of which had to pay Ford for the plans, rights, and maybe even royalties. The same conditions don't exist with video games, at least not yet.
First off, I think that what this guy did is just hilarious.
Secondly, I totally agree with such a subpoena - Prosecutors wouldn't want someone on the jury who posted in support of this guy; likewise, the defense wouldn't want someone on the jury that believes that this guy should go to jail for 25 years.
Hmmm.....
So besides the obvious open-sourceness, what distinguishes Dreamweaver from Eclipse PDT for PHP? If dreamweaver goes, why not Eclipse?
While it is unlikely but not impossible that some SAAS package will replace the need for custom software, but who will develop the SAAS software? Hmmmmmmm.....
I can't tell you how many times I have seen names like "server1" or domain names like "contosodomain". Keep it short!
For Server #1 on the production network in San Francisco, use something like "svr1.sf.prod.example.com". The shorter the better!

If only Alan was alive today...
After about a week you'll get a message like this:
Your battery can only hold 2% of it's original capacity. To learn about replacement options, please click here.

My condolences.

This just made my day. Now i can go back to bed.
Thanks!
Now where did I leave my Dynatac???

If you have the Wii, Wii Fit is excellent. I too work in a high-stress IT job, and I use the wii fit for ~33 min per day - it seems to be a big help.
Of course we couldn't do that! Imagine:

Why would they waste their time? Surely there are easier ways to steal from adsense that don't involve putting people at risk...
Yup. Mod parent up, please.

If this rumor is true, why not call the cell carrier and get them to get a position? After all, a crime was committed here...
Nope. "An Inconvenient Truth 2" will be all about how the earth is getting too cold.
