In ten years chrome may provide a commensurate level of productivity that Windows does today. But by that time Windows will have achieved a new level of being all together. What's most disturbing about Chrome is the short-sighted strategy that it will be an alternative to Windows without acknowledging how much ground it has to make up. If you want me to be excited about Chrome give me a vision, not just some hype based on anti-Microsoft sentiment.
I’d love to see Chrome do something meaningful in computing and society but right now it’s on the wrong track and the only fuel for its marketing engine is irrational exuberance.
Yes, but before its was soot it was airborne particulates that reflect sunlight back into space and avoid their energy deposition into our atmosphere. So, there's a offest to the warming effect.
"The onl y sensible thing to do, is to ensure that our debt shrinks a little bit every year. GROWING the debt is just plain suicide."
I don't understand why everyone talks about the situation as either feast or famine when a bit of logic dictates that slowing debt growth is a great start.
A ballistic missile is one whose trajectory, following the boost phase is determined by it's inertia, gravity and friction on it's surfaces. In the absence of manuvering you are able to predict their flight path quite accurately using ballistic equations.
Everyone is a niche play at this point appl included. What matters is what the next niche will be. The desktop is going away or morphing into something new. MS is betting on it and W8 will bridge the gap during the marginalization with a unified mobile desktop OS.

Robots are also absent of malice which unfortunately is not the case on the human battlefield.

Gadget_guy is absolutley correct.
Really glad to see our representatives spending time on the things that really matter.
What a great waste of time by Google doing it in the first place, slasdot reporting it and me commenting on it.
The EU have been leading the march towards open linked data and the semantic web which makes this all the more surprising comming from Ireland.

It's not the size of the processor, it's how many units it plugs into.

SWE is light wrt. when it comes to how much advanced mathematics is required.
