How would a missile defense system on Cuba protect Russia? I don't think many ICBMs aimed at Russia would launch from the Gulf and head south/southeast. Maybe in Canada, if Canada would allow it, but Cuba seems to be a ridiculous place for a defensive system.
Article I, Section 8, Clause 8 of the United States Constitution, known as the Copyright Clause, states:

Currently, copyrights last 50-70 years after the creator's death. How does this advance Science and useful Arts?
I agree. Right now, I am using a laptop as a desktop replacement. It's not working out for me with the non-standard keyboard, hitting the touch-pad when I type, etc. It just isn't that easy to use for real work. So my next machine will be a real desktop, and I will get a netbook for mobile connectivity.
Well, he obviously isn't trying to be elected a third time. The only way he can remain President is through a constitutional amendment (which I doubt Congress will give him) or a coup d'etat.

Well North Korea aren't going to shoot over Russia and Europe are they? :)
Russian missile defense system... in Cuba... to protect Russia from North Korea? I must be misunderstanding you.
As for the middle east.. could go either way. Most likely to not shoot anything and bring it in via ship in a suitcase, where security is rather lax.
The point is that the whole system is ridiculous. All it does is make Russia edgy.
Again: Missile defense system in Cuba to protect Russia from the Middle East? I'm confused. :-(
What is that blue symbol I see next to your UID? Do you work for Slashdot's corporate overlord?
(can Russia build one on Cuba?)

Do you feel that the winner-take-all system of the Electoral College is fair to voters, especially minorities?
...hate and vitriol come from the left view point?
I'm sure they don't see themselves that way.
Do you support the FairTax? Why or why not?

I am conservative and even I am irritated at those two posts. If they are not intended to be trolls, they shouldn't feel the need to post anonymously.

But..But... It would be... environmentally friendly! Yeah, that's it! How can you not see that whatever Apple does is ultimately good for all of us?
Funny. On a "quiet day", a FP attempt gets fourth.
High-Availability?
I've looked over a lot of forums and have found that Gnome doesn't seem capable of changing hotkeys
You mean System>>Preferences>>Keyboard Shortcuts doesn't really exist? Or am I misunderstanding?
Don't you mean "High-Performance Beowulf Cluster"?
Who's suggesting an high-level OS?
I mean besides MS.
Who's suggesting an high-level OS? Assembly code can be Open Source, too.
Who cares about alien plumbing?
I want their electronics!

A commercial device is nowhere near as flexible as a DIY. And it's not as fun.
http://dilbert.com/fast/ is better. Virtually nothing on the page except the comic, and it's in color.

Include a registry for backwards compatibility, but give it a significant performance handicap.
Let the OEM install the browser of their choice.

Do you visually inspect the holograms on the CD media?
I avoid this issue by not having Windows disks.
I take it you would NEVER use a preinstall version of Windows that came on a new machine.
For one of my own boxen? certainly not. Although it's a moot point, because I don't buy prebuilt machines. It's cheaper to do it myself.
The default drivers are good enough for you. No new hardware! Not unless there's a driver for it built into the Microsoft install media. Right?
Drivers come from the hardware manufacturers, or from the Linux kernel. Not some anonymous individual on the web.
