One thing is to clone an animal (like cow, as it was done in Argentina) or to clone cells. You don't need a live animal to clone its cells. So I think it should be OK for a vegan since there is no animal suffering involved in such a process (but the research that leads to it needs to use animals to extract the samples, but once you have a cloned cell line to generate tissue, you won't need the animals).
I can live with a small HD. There is always a chance to add a cards, there are NAS, there are distributed apps and storage. I can live without CD/DVD. I transfer most files over 54mbps wifi, and some of them with a pendrive. Battery live may be important, but you can have a spare battery or even find a plug. I can live with a low power CPU (like a VIA), since I can use light apps (and even distributed apps). But keyboard size can't be upgrades. The only thing why I a not sure abut Asus EEEPC is keyboard size, I tried and I can't get used to.
"devoted to the whole 'race to the bottom' thing without explaining exactly why Sony thinks this a problem".
In early 80 terms: Sony is the TI99/4A and Asus eeePC is Commodore 64. Commodore engaged a price war with TI took TI out of the market. All micro-computers lowered the price at that time.
"Religious symbols are commonly airbrushed out if they appear in contexts that are not acceptable in the U.S. Religious terminology is often removed from dialogue for the same reason. Sometimes a character appearing to be crucified by being bound to two wooden beams in the shape of a cross is enough to be considered unacceptable[1].
For example, representations of the Christian cross were airbrushed out of Pokémon and One Piece, while references to Hell were replaced with "HFIL (Home For Infinite Losers)" in Dragon Ball Z and Dragon Ball GT. Alleged demonic imagery is also commonly removed or toned down, as are uses of pentagrams, because of their religious meanings and their apparent association with Satanism and Paganism.....
Commonly, the censorship of violence is done by removing the exact moment when a physical attack, such as a punch or kick, connects with a person. In some cases this is achieved by airbrushing the scene to include a caption or object (such as an explosion or movement lines) over the point of impact, or by flashing the screen so that the impact is never seen. In other cases, the frames containing the connecting blow are removed and the frames immediately before and after it are extended to procure a slow motion or comic book frame effect. "
The problem with this, is that other countries receive a translated version from the English censored version:(
"A frog in water, with no solid support to push off of *cannot* jump out of a pot of water, hot or cold"
That is why experiments should be done with positive and negative controls when possible. In parallel to the slow boiling frog, there should be another with cold water.
Several distros already has more than one Python installation (like Freespire 1.013, comes with 2.3 but you can install 2.4 using package managment or 2.5 by compiling it yourself). The same happens with some 64bits distros, they have both x64 libraries and "standard" 32 bit packages.
"I wouldn't want any of his books even if he paid me to get it.".
If you didin't read it, how do you know that he is a bad writer? I read a couple of his books (In Argentina everybody knows him, even if you don't read it, at least everybody knows who is him). Yes, the subjects of their book are new age friendly, but also Harry Potter. LOTR and all Tolkien books have mythical setting and it is not something wrong (as long as you don't take it as real).
This story made me remember of an old story about a company that would rent or built a ship and employ programmers to make them code there, very near US west coast but in international waters to avoid being bound by US work laws.
Next? Have you ever saw a VISA application form? You have to SHOW your financial status since it is presumed you may over-stay illegally (you have to "Bring evidence that their visit is temporary and that they will return home after their legally authorized stay"). Bank statement is a standard way to show this. Medical: You have to declare that you don't have AIDS or any other STD.

In this model the keyboard is bigger than before? Or it is the same?
