Well I've just skimmed though Spaceballs and there are certainly frames that seem a little cramped (e.g. anything with a radar screen).
I don't think we can get in on the US suit but I certainly think it's pushing trade descriptions.
Actaully if you try playing a DVD in a window on a computer you can tell quite easily actually. Anything pan scanned with still display in a 4:3 window.
I have one of these and am very happy with it. The best feature is the lack of numeric key pad. This means that the mouse is some 4" closer to the keyboard which is much more comfortable. They keys are all full size and have full travel. The Mk2 at least doesn't feel tacky at all, on the contrary it's one of the better built keyboards I've used. Other subtle benefits:
Much larger shift key on the left (than UK keyboards at least).
Backspace key is closer to home row.
Control is closer to home row.
Escape is much closer to home row.
PgUp, PgDn, Home, End are in a more logical inverted 'T' layout (function key used to alter functionality of directional keys).
It's pitched as a "hacker" keyboard as anyone using Emacs or Vi (especially Vi) will notice their hands moving less than with most keybaords.
Try opening two directory trees you are about to diff with this new interface! (then go use Meld).
My two immediate suggestions would be:
To reduce the number of clicks required for "open in same window" to one (independent of the use one click for everything option - this is how the right mouse button works so why not the middle one?).
Consider showing more in the window to give users an idea of context, i.e. where in their directory hierarchy they are. Something like the chain of buttons you get at the top of the new open dialog to show context perhaps? Or maybe just show more of the path in the title bar. The little parent directoy list at the bottom left does this I know but it's not as immediately apparent as maybe it should be?

There are a number of python tools you might want to have a look at for this, whether you want native desktop clients or not.

For a PS2 on an LCD the AVT-3300 should be fine.
What you need is an upscanner, this converts the interlaced picture you get from the PS2 into something your standard LCD/CRT can display.
Take a look at these.
The quality of most of the ones on there that I've seen generally beats the pants off most smallish TVs.
Look at the last picture on this page. There's a function key to get to the "F" keys and the Mk2 has cursor keys at the bottom right.

> However, Apache Webserver is not included either.
Yes it is! it's under the name httpd just like it is on apache.org.
I thought http://www.jboss.org/ and http://www.exolab.org/ were getting pretty close to open souece J2EE?
(BTW yes j2se 1.4 does mean scrolling in Netbeans without any plugins).
Of course you should be using UML to DESIGN the software not just to document it!
