They don't have to do much R&D to make the "light" versions. Also, just because the current market segment is saturated, doesn't mean that they can't find new segments to flaunt their devices to.
I was also thinking about the more generic ABC weapons like Anthrax and whatnot. You know... the stuff your government gave to Saddam back in the 80s...
While you're at bashing at Americans for no particular reason, could you please give Microsoft a little attention as well? It wouldn't be fair to MS to be forgotten when being rash and narrowminded./empaler* (* very anti-american - but not rash)

Music to suit and better your current emotional state! Yeah! This could be great! Think about it; train your computer to know your emotions, and which type of music works to pick you up when you're down and to keep you happy when you are - schweetness! (And I don't just mean "Emotion- playslists", more interactive inter- active music)
You'd need to recalibrate it for every user. The complexity of a human brain is absolutely staggering, and creating a fast auto-calibrating 'brainreader' would need so much data about different 'possible' user brainwave patterns that it at the moment would be nigh impossible. At the moment, anyway.
The interconnectivity-fee is US$ 0.04 (ca.), and I pay less per message. We also have a provider that offers the same service as a part of one of their subscriptions (charged at about US$ 25 a month). On the minus side, they have one of the most expensive minuterates, almost twice mine.
It's New Zealand. Unlike 'old' Zealand (where I live), the New one is full of nature's freaks. Twelve-toed snakes and five-thumbed humans and whatnot. Here on 'old' Zealand we just have freaks of society...
Or was it the dwarves' union who demanded better working conditions, and therefore had the key placed there (ultimately shooting themselves in their tiny little feet)?
I was just about to post the exact same thing. It doesn't really hurt anyone that you're not allowed to tamper with your X-box, but a tonne worth of steel had better be working properly, and if the automakers can monopolize the maintenance of their cars, the price for that will soar, and if that happens, fewer people will maintain their cars properly. Duh.
There is no difference, theoretically. But when the card has been shuffled and are in a set order, a card from the middle of the pile is unlikely to be the same as the top card. Unless it has the same value as the top card, it is either higher or lower. This is the point of the entire discussion; this is the only time apart from deck shuffling that randomness is a factor of the game. Just because it's not predictable doesn't make it inconsequential. I'm not sure you read my post on how it's supposed to go when getting two cards with equal face value.

I saw 'Requiem for a Dream' today for the first time.
Great movie, but very depressing.
And just WHY should CNN, or any other news service, "push" one product over another?
Moz and Firefox are free products. Why not?
I thought Microsoft would only allow patches that directly influenced online gaming perfomance?
;)
(Of course, I could be wrong)
(Though very unlikely, I rule!)

... and I'm getting my new PDA-phone in a few days. Out with my old Nokia and Palm Vx. Mmmm.

Now if they were developing Biological weapons or manufacruing new nukes, then there's kinda sorta be a justification for war.
Because only the US is allowed to do these things?

Think about it this way: ;p
You don't need to 'let go' to change/control the pr0n when you're at it

I love statements like that... ... I'm still waiting for a 3Dfx patch for Commanche3 ;-)
I haven't seen one of these for years. I was sort of hoping everyone else had forgot.

a way to cut costs in early IT-businesses?

Their software is crap anyway, and they have crappy support.
You are exasperatingly boring, did you know that?

I think your just trying milk the consumer for everything he/she is worth. (sic.)
Well, duh. Wouldn't you? It's called ca-pi-ta-lism.
That is the coolest mod I've ever seen...
