Wireless Internet is a luxury and not employed by many.
So was indoor plumbing, before municipalities built waterworks and sewer lines.
Is indoor plumbing a necessity or just a luxury? You could take your dumps in a hole in your back yard if you had to. That's how it was done before the daggum gubmint taxed us landowners to build them fancy sewers!
Um, no. I'm saying that Speakeasy is hoping that the halo effect can spill some of Firefox's positive buzz onto the Speakeasy brand if they have the two logos next to each other. Building brand recognition and reputation is very important in the corporate world.
And then there's the simple money-grubbing of shoving paid-for commercial links onto a "toolbar".
Speakeasy's reasoning for this is simple; to increase the reliability and speed of its internet service.
If that was true they could bundle the regular ole Firefox distro. I think what they're really trying to do grub some ad revenue and co-branding out of the current Firefox buzz.
If by "does have" you mean, "is availabale as an accessory for an additional charge", you are correct. But that's not what most people mean by "does have".
Perhaps because the iPod has all the features I want
So you prefer having to fire up the ol' workstation to recharge your mp3 player rather than just plugging it into the wall?
Seems to me Apple left out several basic features in order to hit that $99 price point...

Oh, I knew I would be modded down for it...I've been seeing "should of" in writing more and more lately. Feh.
Maybe you're being off-topic here, but you couldn't be more on-topic with regard to the books/games story posted earlier today.
The use of "would of" instead of "would have" is a direct result of people not reading enough. Because they only encountered the phrase being spoken and never written, they are unaware of the actual words being used, and they guess wrongly when they try to write it out themselves.
...how about reversing the effects of aging too? If all they learn to do is halt the aging process by 2030 then you and me and everyone we know today will be spending an eternity in decrepit old bodies.
Personally, I'd rather die than experience 1000 years of arthritis, senility, and incontinence.
Neither this satellite nor the previous one mentioned got lost.
They were considered a loss because they malfunctioned and are no longer usable. They weren't "lost in space". Intelsat still knows exactly where they are.
Absolutely true. And the lie goes even farther than that:
Thier initial desktop "dual core" processor is really a dual processor kludge. It's just two Prescott P4s side by side with a bit of extra wiring between them. They are essentially going to make half as many wafer cuts and call the resulting double-wide processors "dual core".
AMD really has got Intel by the short hairs lately. First AMD released x86-64 and Intel had to clumsily pkay catch-up, now AMD will be releasing dual core processors and Intel is again clumsily trying not to be left in the dust.

The PS2 is showing it's age and IMO it's already saturated the market.
Saturating the market is a good thing. The real money is made not on the console sales but on the software sales. You achieve maximum software sales when everyone already has your console.
The war is already over on this generation of game consoles. Sony won handily. Maybe Microsoft will dominate the next round (and maybe not), but crowing about the success of the current Xbox is just silly.

Look at the bottom right corner of Google's map: "Map data ©2005 NAVTEC TeleAtlas"
Maybe Intel should call them dual-kludge processors instead of dual-core?
And usually that person is a republican.

Must be an online multiplayer version. Cuz playing FPSes on laggy servers feel like an acid flashback to me.
Are you saying that Microsoft employees have to share cubicles? You don't even get your own grey box to sit in?
Let me guess - a flame job on the hood to make it go faster.
Slap a whale tail on the trunk and a chrome tailpipe out the back and you could get to Mars in a week!

That would be all of it, wouldn't it? Seems to me that he's given away a lot less than all of it.
If that worries you, this will really bake your noodle:
half of the people out there are below average!

Wow, that's so much simpler than just including an ordinary wall plug like every other rechargable device in the world does.

I stopped watching when the Nazis showed up.

Well, parts of it anyway.
This ipod shuffle really is just a "me too" product.
Right, cuz there aren't already a bazillion small screenless internal-flash-based mp3 players on the market...
I'm sure Monsato is working on that. I hear they merged that project with their attempt to create a monkey with five asses.
