...and what if you loose your 'password file'. You're probably expecting the website to have a 'Forgotten your Password' feature, like most websites. But think about it, how will they send you your 'Password File' or whatever the hell it's called.
I suppose after clicking on 'Forgotten your Password' it could email your file to you, but think of the hassle.
Fail...
"Much more potentially disruptive to the Microsoft business strategy"
To be honest I wouldn't call 'eliminating everything slightly in the way to rake in slightly more cash to an already overcrowded bank' a marketing strategy would you?
There's only 1 word for this:
Finally.
Big companies like these ought to learn to treat their customers properly. Hopefully the other big names will learn and hopefully respect us.
But as I said.
Hopefully.
Storing data on this disk may be useful, because of it's size, but what if your copying data. Or if you take security seriously and back up your data. Unless you REALLY need it, this sounds pretty much a novelty.
I suppose if you owned one of them it could get really horrible on the screen. All the food and dirt from your fingers, as well as finger prints. Even with an easy wipe screen, I still think it won't stay looking like new for a long time.
I doubt it is just me, but after a long plane journey, the last thing I would want to do is to ignore my bodily functions and starve myself! Being cramped in a plane for 7+ hours, I would want to relax and do what I want, i'm on holiday. Or vice versa, I am now home after my holiday, and I am not going to greet myself back with a starving stomach. I mean, yes, it may be a discovery. Now we know, but is it really useful? In my opinion:
No
Well that's quite a stupid thing to say...
What you are saying to me is that you cannot have fun without a PDA/Cell phone? Also, please tell me why your mate would die of an overdose in the theme park... That's like saying, i daren't go outside now it's sunny, it could rain again. Or I don't want to sit down, i'll only have to stand up again. It's nonsense.
No offence, but if you can't have fun without your phone, then I feel sorry for you.
Looking at that, obviously the first thing I think of if very unsafe, it looks hard to drive, (Whilst looking amazingly fun), the insurance companies probably wouldn't go near it. I doubt it could be even legal to drive in some countries. Although a cool concept, will stay a concept.

Does it really surprise everyone that Google invades people's privacy...
They paid 40 billion for that ceremony. I can't see this improving their opinion of Microsoft much.
If they'd have chosen open source, I bet it would have only cost 20...

"I know--stop trying to compete with Wikipedia" Their algorithms are favoured towards Wikipedia...Not very competitive I must add.
Does this mean they will find out about our drug boats?

You can't assume that, that's where engineers come into the game.
