Things to avoid:
>>LotR 2 and next year's LotR 3 (or any movie you like)
>>buy CD or DVD's
>>watch MTV, or any TV channel
>>live without DSL line or internet access
Will you be really able to live without it ? Of course if you live on island in the middle of the Pacific ocean, stranded. But that's another story.
Would be interesting to see if the system can be installed in a Airbus aircraft, as Lufthansa has a lot of those presently on routes over the Atlantic
Soon (2007) there will be A380 with upto 470 seats. The story will become even more interesting
Then you will not get the VW Passat V6 TDI or the VW Touareg V10 TDI engines.... You then need no more a Ferrari or a Porsche. Those things scream, and with a torque like they have, you leave every sportscar beside you at every traffic light in the dust.
You forgot one : There are 26 albums ! This makes 1)Come up with a crappy idea for a movie. 2)Add Speilburg 3)Profit! 4)26 times => an awful lot of money. What about quality ?
Good idea : It would recycle the CO2 out of the atmosphere. But... General Aviation jet engines relies on kerosene. Those cannot use alcohol - except from some very though russian jet engines. Another point is : refueling in an aircraft is quite dangerous - strict procedures, etc. Alcohol is much more volatile and explosive. Would the passengers have to go aboard with fire resisting clothes ? Think of the fueling point at racings (formula one or indy)
Ct (german magazine), in an older article from May has proven with simple but effective tools that all existing biometry systems can be fooled ! Here is the article in German and here a google translation. I would not trust airports using that procedure. A human identifying you is always much safer...
To achieve this sort of bandwidth, memory and ccd would have to be on the same die ! We would have similar architectures as for cpu's with the ccd as the core, the 1st and 2nd level cache to store 1 or 2 seconds of film, that would be transferred after recording to the outside world - ie the main cpu of the computer that would transfer the data to disc. evolving design would allow to stretch the capacity of this architecture - higher resolution or longer recordings. But be sure of one thing - it will take several years to achieve the same quality you get today for analog devices.
The Transrapid will be built for commercial operations in China, to link the Shanghai to its new Pudong airport, and then further. Munich is also considering to link its airport to town with a transrapid.
Global Crossing deep sea cables are running in internal waters.... USA wire tapping cables in international waters... What would happen if a state like Libya (who has a lot of money) buys Global Crossing ? What is the value of US search warrant in that case ?
all the Asimov, Arthur C. Clarke, Herbert and other SciFi books again ? Not only NASA will be happy, IKEA and the moving companies also : new schelves, more volume to move, etc.
Beside of the regain of energy by the vehicle going down, the lift would produce electricity when idle ! The lift, out of carbon nanotubes would be conductive, and crosses the magnetic field of the Earth, and therefore inductive electricity would be produced. A experiment was done several years ago on a Space Shuttle. At that time there problem with the cable widing system, and the experiment had to be abandoned.
European airline are not allowed to disclose informations about passengers except a manifest (listing of passenger on a flight) upon arrival in the US... And the european airlines won't disclose the information, otherwise the competitors would grab the information and the passenger... Yes I know that there a thing like a echelon, but nowadays airline data centers are like Fort Knox. I doubt that they get some useful information out of it.
Funniest thing about this (according to www.heise.de) is that Krayon is in the start menu but not installed, and nowhere to find on CD... no comment is my only word
[power outlets] Already installed !... at least in the class where businessmen tend to seat - business class. So there will be a higher price tag to get there and to have internet access. tourist class is meant for tourists.
all those.com,.gov,.mil,.edu,.org misused by us companies and institutions.... all these domains should be reorganised to be subdomains of.us. So all countries in the world of internet are equal. For the moment the US are more equal than others. They are the pigs of the internet animal farm.
And Europe should obtain a.eu domain. the internet is no more a exclusively american issue. i will tell such thing to my favourite european parliament deputy : )
I remember Bob as being the smart driver that doesn't drink...
In Belgium it is the guy who is a volunteer in a party to drive all others home, while drinking soft drinks....
M$ was at that time forced to proceed like so to avoid troubles with Apple and their just born Macintosh...
Later Apple dropped this requirement. See what happened - much more windows than macs !
As all purpose as all purpose can be !
it could play any know format onto tv screen or out the speakers (mp3, mpeg, ogg, divx, you name it)
a bit of linux, and a small foot print, it is a neat multimedia box.
It misses one thing : an opening for a DVD drive. You can put in, but the pictures don't an opening in the front of the device... May be the manufacturer is reading/.
Happy hacking with that box !
By the way, what's the status of divx under linux ?
Look at what China did. Basically, whole China is behind a firewall, filters, and traffic tracers.... So you would end with a USnet, Euronet, a Chinanet, a Autralnet, etc. Rest of world would be offline...
That's what we are using to automate our windows environments ! windows has no embedded scripting language as for example OS/2 with REXX.
We use it for nearly everything - automated installs, login scripts, database management, system administration, etc. It makes life a lot easier and extensible, and the support (newsgroups, internet) is excellent. If you try to do this with a microsoft method, you would have to learn several different programming and scripting languages, pay for compilers (VB), click a lot around, and would require much more personel, and have a crap support !

Of course Fortune is a US magazine. But with globalisation, they could have made a worldwide ranking. Would be interesting. And difficult too.
