Craig Ferguson (of the Late Late Show) had the best joke about it: Vampires with 6 pack abs! Do they come out at night to go to (in vampire mock-scary voice) Goooold's Gym! Then Craig does an impression of Sesame Street's The Count while miming a bench press: "One! One Repetition! Two! Two repetitions!"
He hates these so called Vampires because they should really be pasty white and frail.
Listen, already at couple of hundred comments and none of you realize the gravity of the situation. Faster boot times, think about it. You won't have time to make coffee! I've switched to instant coffee already! I keep the powder stuff in my mouth, wait for login, enter my password and then I have to make another dash to get the hot water and gulp them down together! Yup! No sugar! Cream? Maybe later, during the anti-virus scan! (Sugar can be added later when a virus has been detected--I happen to be the only one glad when that happens; see this smile?) This has got to stop! Are you with me??
Yes but at least this one is presented as a SINGLE monitor, and that was on Windows. How tough can it be then? That same guy coding for the single monitor, he can put down the newspaper and get back to work...
Oh yes, over there, in the garden of unicorns, under the rainbow, where the pipes of pan make the fairies dance, yes, they support Linux wholeheartedly.

He looks around suspiciously first, then leans in, and whispers, Meet me at the side entrance tonight when the sun sets...(Looks at daughter) Bring her with you.
Seriously, sponsors up the yinyang, not to mention the drama.
Halfway thru the trip they vote to eject someone. Maybe *not the guy that keeps raiding the fridge, but the one that keeps clogging up the...well, you catch my drift...
I am with you on the dark themes. I wish there was a choice to replace the mostly-white with a shade of gray on webpages, however when I decide to 'Use my colors' in FF preferences a lot of pages start losing buttons (critical ones too) as well as their layout. I have seen this option on one browser (iirc it was opera) but had to switch back to ff.
The tabs on the side would be nice if they had a flip-90-degree option, just like a real-life organizer or notebook. For me, that would be the bee's knees.
Mainly I want page backgrounds not to be white so that any casual passerby would not think I am slacking off and reading slashdot, of all things, or in your case Shikaku, YouTube. For research.
No they have been designed for product placement. I imagine a Hummer employee in a suit wandering Hollywood lots: 'Shooting an action movie? History? Was time travel mentioned in the script? Sorry.' (leaves card, goes to next lot) 'Is this a post nuclear Apocalyptic wasteland type movie? Wha--Resident Evil 14! JACKPOT!
What, you wanted the one that will look for Sarah Connor? She ain't listed in the phonebook anymore since she got a cell phone. OTOH, her face is on MySpace.com...
I believe it should be the other way around, i.e. tablet PCs are perfect for meetings, unless you happen to be either a) a PHB browsing slashdot, or b) playing buzzword bingo at the meeting and hoping nobody notices.
I'll stick to my rule of thumb: anytime a character draws his sword (e.g. light saber in the presence of more powerful weaponry), or the main character is associated with a dragon, that's fantasy (or maybe space opera), not sci fi.
If I'm going to have to listen to you yammer how the doctor had to poke and prod and insert a tube in your grandpa's rear end to no avail, I might as well get close captioning to the conversation as well. Why miss the other half of the dialogue?
Slashdot Mirror
Uhm, so *cough you're not getting a Toyota, then? Just checking...
Yeah you can mention the app name, while signing as 'Anonymous Coward', right?
Oh, wait...

Can you even imagine *when* the Slashdot dupe appears?

Stop the insanity!
(You left the most crucial part out, which goes something like this)
P.S.
Sorry about your dick, pal
So I hereby bestow upon him the title
Official Rocket Launcher!

Hmmm, is the action called Negative window or something, I don't think my compiz has that yet :(
I might have to get a FF plugin, if not 'Use my colors'. I'll ask around if this distro will let me upgrade compiz itself...

'little play on the...'
Aw come on! More than half o this crowd would know, without you pointing *that* out, Mr. Comic Book Guy. Yes, I'd recognize that voice anywhere...
And not a joke about a biouelf cluster in sight...
...the binary blobs do matter. In a sector we hardly expected, but care about.
Hey any way to see what your bot 'sees'? I am interested as well! :)

I find that meetings are perfect for tablet PCs.

Agreed, the clue was big enough for a Ferrari to drive through

Well, it seemed that he HAD tried the diplomatic route, not just once, and now the companies are 'forcing his hand' to use this last resort.
Doesn't anybody RTFCATFA (read the f***g comments about the f***g article) anymore? What is this world coming to??
No, that's German for, 'The Seamonkey, The.'
No one who speaks German could be an evil man.
