Yes, but I have wondered for a while what will happen to the quad-socket market if AMD sticks to the same pricing policy with Interlagos. Remember that Intel is one generation behind with Westmere-EX, and Sandy Bridge-EP is not even released yet right now.
Now, protected by the very institutions that had been in place to protect people, citizens of the United States are denied at least two of the traditional corner stones of a democracy. Those foundations stones being the Ballot and Jury box.
Not completely. The only reason campaign donations work is that the citizens are stupid. I wonder if this will change with Occupy Wall Street.
1) How will this affect the security of the OS (as we're back to things like IE exploits affecting Windows itself, although reason 3 made that obvious anyway)?
The key question would be how many apps using MSHTML uses it to load remote (as opposed to local) content?
In fact, on Windows, JScript and VBScript, while updated as part of IE until IE9, can be used by any application, and is used also for example by ASP. IE9 decided to fork JScript off Windows Scripting and update their engine separately while any other apps still get JScript 5.8. (MS did the same thing in forking ACE off Jet in Access 2007.)
The problem is that most apps that uses MSHTML is dependent on IE-specific features and quirks, so another rendering engine would not be easily droppable in place without modification. Even Apple faces a similar problem with WebKit being a part of Mac OS X. In fact, both MSHTML and WebKit are full of application compatibility hacks. Not that it would be impossible to detail in a spec, but...
It is not totally irrelevant. An HTML renderer is handy for many other applications, like help. Apple added an HTML renderer to Mac OS 8.5 to support help too.
But note that the MIFARE DESFire EV1 is older than the MIFARE Plus, and even with this crack it is nowhere nearly as bad as the MIFARE Classic designed in *1994*.
To be honest however, I think the America Invents Act does reduce the effect of patent trolls by introducing more strict rules on joinder and make it easier to move lawsuits to another state.

As a note, I remember seeing one of Intel's libraries used in MSHTML.DLL in MS's own IE9 when I was disassembling it with IDA.
And remember that Interlagos will be drop-in replacement for Magny-Cours.
It is time for some reverse engineering of the benchmark programs I think to see what exactly is happening.

Well, these rural areas likely currently only have 56k dial-up or satellite, which is even worse, even for basic tasks like checking email.

The standard that eventually became CSS was originally submitted to Tim Berners-Lee et al by Haakon Wium Lie
which was in October 1994 BTW.

Removing IE will cause Windows 8's kernel to break at the lowest level.
Not the kernel, the *shell* which happens to be part of Windows, unlike Unix.
Correction, Windows's *shell* depends on IE.

I did a submission where quoting the abstract was enough to make my point even without access to the paywall:
http://slashdot.org/submission/1167600/shareholder-value-and-agency-theory-at-its-worst
And that:
In June 2010 we started to inform our direct customers and eco-system partners that we would discontinue the MF3ICD40 at the end of 2011.
From what I can read, this has nothing to do with the MIFARE DESFire, and everything to do with MIFARE Classic which is completely different.
This response may sound familiar.
But note that the MIFARE DESFire EV1 is older than the MIFARE Plus, and even with this crack it is nowhere nearly as bad as the MIFARE Classic designed in *1994*.
Of course, even non-technical management should be able to understand how bad this is.
Wonder what the whistleblower will do with it.
Yea, for a really horrible example of this happening, look at the TSA. One way to salve the fundamental flaw is putting people over process.

If you want a mail client, you can use SeaMonkey.
To be more precise, I'd say this is all an OK CEO does.
And also that the bytecode is for things like option ROMs on PCI cards etc which has to connect with the UEFI firmware.
Well, remember that EFI was originally designed for Itanium and was designed to be platform independent.
