Aerospikes have enclosed chambers? I don't recall seeing one on the test videos, and as far as I recall the aerospike uses outside air pressure as the bell. Having just read http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aerospike_engine, it seems to confirm what I thought. The included illustration doesn't depict a chamber either.
Amen to that. My first stipulation when flying abroad is to avoid London. Not just because it's a disaster zone, but because it's sheer mayhem. There's plenty of other transport hubs (now there's something that should've been abandoned years ago in favour of point to point travel), such as Schipol, Dubai, Paris, etc
I've yet to come across an airport more pitiful than Heathrow...
Yes, sadly we weren't subjected to the spelling errors of a certain Mr Hall...

I reported a glaring error in Google Maps to Google about 2 years ago, relating to the name of a major A road. The error is still present, so your theory immediately falls apart.
You can already distinguish between the different way types. Such as bicycle path, tramway, footpath, highway, etc. The different layers are also available, and have already been implemented by other sites. One notable bicycle orientated site being the GravityStorm cyclemap.
You don't need to go to Pirate Bay at all for Vista SP1 or XP SP3. They are both available on WindowsUpdate if you make one change to your registry to permit downloading of the patch.
I wrote briefly about such a feature here
That's nearly a tonne... the article states that the camera is approx 46 pounds. Submitters... please rtfa before submitting. And if you did, then pay attention to it.
I can't help but laugh at those that quote reasons such as 'automatic updates' and 'antivirus scans' as legitimate reasons for leaving a computer on overnight.
With many enterprise management tools, such as Zenworks, it's quite simple to schedule a wake-on-lan task to wake computers up at say, 6am, to perform their daily tasks. It can even be configured to push out an automatic reimage of the machine. Once the updates and scans are done by 7am, people are just beginning to come into the office, yet you've still had a whole 10 hours of downtime. Incidentally, I've not seen a single computer in the past 4 years that doesn't support WoL on the mainboard NIC. Big bucks enterprise manglement apps aren't even required. A simple cron job, and some wakelan/ether-wake/wakeonlan/Net::Wake magic will do it for free. Just gather a list of Mac addresses with ettercap or your friendly ARP table or asset management app/spreadsheet.
May will say that the bandwidth requirements of updates squeezed into the 6am to 7am slot will degrade systems, but that's where a background process such as BITS should be used (as demonstrated by Eve Online, Zenworks, Microsoft and Google). The virus updates are a minor bandwidth requirement if you have suitable leaf services, and the actual scan is only locally intensive.
Being a public sector organisation, we're working towards a greener profile (due to govt policies), and all the tools are there and working. It just needs some effort on the part of the administrators.
Sadly a NAS will just not cut it. I wrote about the apparent lack of a Linux solution just here a while back. Maybe with the advent of Samba4, shadow copies, domain memberships, mdadm improvements and so on, we may get close to something as integrated.
It will be interesting to see how the figures change in the coming years, as border security gets worse (ie, more restrictive), whilst the yankee dinar gets lower and lower, thus making it more appealing to holiday makers.
There's already some revealing figures for 2006 and 2007. Something to keep an eye on for sure.
"Final Cut Studio has become the standard"? Yes, maybe for the home market. The bigger stuff is still dominated by heavyweights such as Harris/Leitch and Avid.
Personally I'd have considered the 9X and ME teams to be the new technology folks, and the NT teams to be the conservative lot. Give how NT had to be the stable, business orientated one. Look at how long it took for DirectX to be supported on the NT platform. Games on NT? Sure...
We all know BillG said NT stands for New Technology, but that was purely a marketing term. Underneath it really is the home user that gets the raw end of the deal when it comes to trying out new technologies.
Alarmist and wrong. I saw an aircraft fly past us and mostly underneath on the way to CPH once. I asked the pilot during disembarkation and he said it was a 1000ft away. He admitted that it always seems closer, but was well within limits, and well spotted on my part:-)
So, nothing to worry about. They have strict rules for a reason.
That's crap. People use humour to deal with tragedy and loss all over the world.
Years ago my grandpa died on the operating table. I had ridden in the ambulance with him, and just before the operation he reminded me not to use all the petrol in his car whilst he recovered. He didn't recover, and the surgeon came out later to give us his ring and spectacles and asked if there was anything else we would require. My dad asked if I wanted his false teeth or his TV. Naturally I went for the latter. In tears, absolutely stricken down with emotion standing in a hospital corridor, we had small moment of humour.
This isn't a 3rd person story, or an unfounded claim. It happened to my dad and I. Now you tell me that I'm a hypocrite and that humour never happens in this scenario?
You're missing something. Yahoo are based primarily on BSD servers, and have been since their early days. They are big supporters of Hadoop, YUI, Flickr and other open source projects. Now with Zimbra in their stable, they should be an interesting group to watch.
Looks like The States have worse consumer support than the UK in this case.
It's apparent that the laptop is not of merchandisable quality, and the owner is entitled to take it back for repair or refund (store credit if no proof of purchase is available). The software is irrelevant at this point, although for simplicity sake it would be easir to back up, reimage with Vista and then head to a different branch of PCWorld.
Dear ghod people, this isn't to do with New Jersey. It's a modification to the Jersey Barrier which just so happens to be named after the place of origin.
Absolutely nothing to do with the New Jersey Turnpike in particular at all.

Old folks know the value of time. Teens just love to waste time, until they realise how important it is.

Yep, see the above comment that I made just minutes after the previous one :-)

Yes, but will I get the option to save the galaxy afterwards?

This whole argument avoids the inherent problems behind atmospheric disturbances and thermal variations. Go back to square one. Do not collect $200.
