So people should change to take your beliefs into account? We could call it "the period surrounding Christmas", would that term be correct with your single-holiday politics? I'm sorry, we should be more sensitive to your needs.
It's called pipelining. You're doing multiple pieces of research over long periods in parallel. Large parts of the research and dog work are handed off to grad-student units to be completed and then introduced back into the main pipeline.
Then the professor goes to the toilet and squeezes out another paper while reading the results of the grad student's dog work.
Wouldn't the damage be what apple charges minus the cost to Apple of the hardware and the retail OSX? Awarding the cost of hardware components that Apple never paid for to Apple seems a bit excessive.
The HTC Touch Diamond, Pro and HD are very much competitive with the iPhone. I'd suggest having a look, because there are some very neat things (like the use of accelerometer gestures) in the Diamond et al that haven't gotten the hype of the iPhone.
In fact, the iPhone still doesn't compete with Windows Mobile on smart-phone features. It only competes by having a better front end user experience and wizz-bang factor.
Apart from the fact that Windows Mobile has had album art and gapless playback (then again, it only had the latter if the stack and hardware was set up correctly) even before the iPhone hype existed.
Of course, the rest of the Windows Mobile media player need a fair bit of work, but it was hardly a leading edge feature unless you came from an earlier generation iPod.
Then again, it could just be the inefficient American SUVs that upset people. For example, the Audi Q5 will haul your groceries fine and get you through the snow... but do it getting 35+ miles to the gallon on diesel (or 31 if you get the 6 cylinder diesel, with more torque than your average petrol V8).
Or you could do what much of the rest of the world (and the North East USA) has done and implement good inter-city mass transit. Good mass-transit systems on that scale can be faster than cars at a lower usage cost.
Make a phone call to your local member and the relevant member of cabinet/shadow cabinet (might be more productive) asking them to ask questions in parliament or raise the issue on your behalf. That's the way to go.
Australia is very much a Keynesian oriented economy. Australia is also not currently in recession and has a budget surplus. We may not have a surplus when it's over and we may get dragged into recession by the rest of you, but for now the government can spend to keep the economy from going into recession. In fact, it's the Keynesian way:-).
Because big government contracts coming from the budget surplus (or even a small temporary deficit) give the economy a much needed kick.
While Australia's wired access in rural areas is lacking, we have pretty much ubiquitous access to fast mobile (wireless) broadband. In fact, you can get 7.2mbit access pretty much everywhere in the country.
That's soon going to be 21mbit, the first large scale roll-out in the world of that particular mobile technology.
Top heavy structure and a project of massive scale. Too many managers, too much design by committee and supporting the kitchen sink.
Windows is a project of truly epic scale when you consider just how much they have to actually support and the features piled upon features for years and years. People talk about Windows being bloated, but the truth is it's hard for them to cut much out, because whatever they cut out, someone, somewhere is going to need it.
1) Get a male grad student in their early 20s. Dose them up with aphrodisiacs as well as mushrooms, LSD and whatever else boosts visual imagination to epic proportions.
The whole left-right thing is much simpler than that.
The whole "conservative" and "progressive" thing should have given it away. The right likes things the way they are and wants to strengthen that foundation (or even regress to things that work), the left want to change what doesn't work for something new.
Both are positive at various times. Sometimes you are onto a good thing, you want to make it better. Sometimes you have a dog that has been hit by a car, it needs to be put down.
Actually, the terms "left" and "right" wing are much more to do with "conservative" values vs "progressive" values and originate from the 1700s, when mercantilism was the reigning economic ideology. In fact, anti-king/pro-king and pro/anti religious freedom (with the left being *for* religious freedom at time) was the original set of debates.
These other associations are much newer. The whole "individual freedom" thing is more an American attachment to the concept. It's a propagandist one at that, after all, everyone wants "freedom", so everyone says they're for "freedom", when really it's an abstract enough concept that you can argue anything makes you free (from or to) something else. The self same individual freedom ideology was very much a left wing philosophy when the term came about.
In fact, it's a fallacy that the right wing has to favor free markets and private enterprise. The right wing favors strengthening and concentrating the system of the day.
The fascists believed in many "traditional" values (racism, like it or not, is a "traditional" value in many cultures) and favored an economic status-quo where the ownership of production was concentrated in the hands of the governing elite. Inherently right wing. The true communists believed in continuous revolution, progression and struggle to make the system better (it's in the manifesto), which is an inherently left wing idea. It's a struggle for change. In this respect, Stalin was right wing (for a communist, if he was a communist at all), suppressing change and upheaval.
So in short, left vs right wing is relative to the area of debate.
I mean, it makes sense, instead of interpreting and then JIT'ing the JavaScript, compile it down to x86 code and super-optimize it ahead of time. Browser supports native code? It runs, otherwise, download the Javascript.
Means you can get a whole lot more optimizations into the Javascript code running on the majority of machines and run "decently" on the others.
Berlusconi is proof that Italian fascism wasn't defeated in world war 2, it's proponents just got smarter about it. Wear a suit instead of dressing up in uniform and you can get away with anything.

As long as you avoid GUI features not supported in 2000, you can get .NET 2.0 applications to run fine on 2000.

So few memristor comparisons.

Yes, but Windows Mobile/Pocket PC/CE can do all of those things (some requiring additional software, many out of the box).
So, if your "typical" PDA is a Windows Mobile one, you can actually do all those things.
Realtek is making drivers so Apple will consider using them in their future low-cost designs?

That's "declarative" programming. Popular functional languages tend to be more declarative, but it doesn't have to be that way.
