...Do scientists only look for planets that have oxygen or water?
You know, not everything is human and breathes air and drinks water. Who knows, you could have some green friends that breath helium and drink mercury. They could even have there own set of elements. Not everything is as we know it to be.
This could be very useful in the cooperate world. Instead of dragging around charts projectors and things alike; have this nifty device in your pocket and your presentation is ready.
Oh and one thing...when's the next SBM? I'm looking to build a new rig in the 2-2.5k range and I want to use the SBM's as a guide. We need some Q1 charts soon too:)
Anyway enough with my demands, keep up the good work. Love the site.

Hi! You must be new to the internet as well as Slashdot, let me give you some tips.
1. Always use the word "lunix" in place of "linux" in slashdot's discussion forums.
2. You can steal mod points by copying someone else's insightful comment and pasting it as a reply to an earlier one.
3. Mac users are a bunch of fucking queers.
4. When there's something you need to do that can't be done with Windows but can be done with Lunix, keep in mind that you can do an even better job with Mac OS X. Some argue that BSD can do it better but no one makes software for BSD since no one gives a flying fuck.
5. Adequacy.org was one of the best sites on the internet. Want to know if your sons a computer hacker? Click here! http://www.adequacy.org/stories/2001.12.2.42056.2147.html
With NVIDIA slowly pushing it's way into the CPU market (CUDA is the first step, in a few years I wouldn't be surprised if Nvidia started developing processors) and Intel trying to cut into NVidia's GPU market share with Larrabee http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Larrabee_(GPU), we'll see who can develop outside of their box faster. This is good news for AMD since Intel will be more focused on Nvidia instead of being neck to neck with them in the processor market. Hey, maybe AMD will regain it's power in the server and netbook realms.
There's also going to be a battle of patents pretty soon too. Wish I was a tech lawyer.
The "Swine Flu" is being blown out of proportions in terms of it's severity so that all the big drug companies can get there bailout, too. The large population of retards who believe everything they hear from the mainstream media get scared, thus causing the government to order millions of dollars worth of "Tamiflu" and drugs alike. Doesn't anyone else see this?
Hold on...there's a knock at the d-%!$*%& NO CARRIER
Norway is being very lenient compared to what we have to do when we take standardized tests here in the US.
When it's test taking time; your pockets must be empty of virtually anything and the only items your allowed to have are a #2 pencil and scrap paper. If these rules are violated, it could end up in not just you, but your entire class retaking the test. There are also very strict rules when it comes to seating and going to the bathroom during standardized tests (In general, it's just a big pain in the ass). Kudos to Norway for trying something new.
Copy and paste some of the text of the suspected document into Google. If something with the same or similar wording comes up, it's plagiarized. Simple.

Rick Roll on every one.
Huh? I don't even bother sitting down and turning on the tube to watch my shows live, I watch them on hulu the next day.
Use the monkeys as light bulbs?

We'll be seeing alot of these http://www.freesoftwaremagazine.com/files/www.freesoftwaremagazine.com/nodes/3027/c20081015_broken_monitor.jpg when people start to lose in blackjack?
Last time robots were confronted with "ethics" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three_Laws_of_Robotics, they turned on the world and Will Smith had to save us all.
I liked your idea of the forward compatibility option, but I don't see M$ doing anything like that.
It would be spectacular, though. XP would hit ten years old and still be going strong.
Mom says if I go out of the basement and socialize once a month (school not included), she'll pay for my /. subscription :-D
If I won one of the PC's, I wouldn't use it. It would be placed on a glass shelf in my room and if someone goes near it, I release the hounds :)

Chris, as long as you keep the drop-down menu I'll keep reading Tom's.
How much will it cost to get a copy of XP from Dell when 7 is released?

25B? That's a lot of chairs, Steve.
Huh? Oh, this never happened? Well how about the fact that Apple sells DRM musicz!!@! They're obviously in love with DRM.
What? They bought the rights from record companies to distribute non-DRM tracks by giving up their pricing strategy which was valuable to them?
1. My old tracks should be removed of the DRM.
2. Since they got rid of the DRM, they jacked there prices on some songs up 30 cents. It's all about the money.
Like alvinrod said, I'd like to see a link..or some proof as to what your doing.
If it's there and going somewhere, I'll throw support behind it.
You sure do get something. More DRM.

By 2011, with the launch of Intel's 35NM processors, we will have some Vista compatible computers.
