No, it's not mind boggling. If your business partner told you to do something boneheaded, you'd have the cajones to stand up and say it was wrong, and not do it. ( I can hear my Mom's voice in my head: "If your friends told you to jump off a bridge, would you?")
Your reputation as a quality assembler of parts is in jeopardy if you don't know industry specs as well as customer specs.
I hate the Dell siteso I won't provide a link, but the AMD processors are in the Accessories section. Fatwallet had links to good prices that dell had on some x2 processors, that's where I first saw that dell was selling amd...
Just looking at the prototype from the article, it looks to me like they have "inlet guid vanes" which would direct the incoming air so that it hits the rotor blades at the correct angle, so there would be no need for variable angle of attack (as there is with propellers...).
You are too young to remember the big stock market crash that brought in the Depression, but you aren't too young to remember the dot-com bubble bursting . That money went poof in a hurry.
Oh, and the tulip market did similar things to money.
I think that line is out of date... If you enable the universe and multiverse repositories in your sources.list, you can install mplayer. (Of course, it may be the same package, just in a different place.)
...are you assuming that just because Apple chose x86 for its chips that they will dump OpenFirmware for a BIOS? I don't think so. Too many other parts of the OS would have to change.
If you want to run another OS on Apple86, you will need to throw yaboot into the discussion.

Tell this to my neighbor who put out a Pentium 2.4 machine on the curb because it gave her a BSOD.
Show her a live CD, and it's all kittens after that.
Sure it shouldn't corrupt itself, hopefully the code cleanup will help with issues like that.
However, you can rebuild the database (it's not like it's gone forever...):

...but, but linux distros age like bread. It's best on the first day, okay on the second. And by the third, I want a new loaf!
Dang...hope they can code better software than that link you supplied.
It just kept Firefox reloading, and nearly sent me into a seizure.
I guess somebody should've told Ghandi that before he wasted all that time...
Pacifism doesn't mean just laying down and rolling over. If I weren't a pacifist, I'd beat that into your head.
...and when that dedicated licensed device dies or breaks? Then what?
Most consumers will get bit by DRM, but only after the fact when it is too late.

For level 3 computers:
"These computers should readily support a composted desktop..."
So the desktop should be put out with the potato peelings?
Top tier developers use ssh.
Wouldn't that just be 1?
At least it would be if I get to pick the base after I found the prime number...
...and on the GNOME side, who wants a file manager (nautilus) that sets the desktop picture?
Seriously.
Here it's not called ad revenue, it's called payola:

Go figure.

Money doesn't just go *poof*.
Yes it does.

The state motto should be "Welcome to New Jersey. Now, go home...
I am sure that's what the native peoples think of you now as well...

I got this from one from /usr/bin/fortune when I logged into my machine:
Q: What's the difference between yogurt and Texas?
A: Yogurt has culture.
...isn't this called AppleScript?
And yes it is innovative, just don't mistake it for a Microsoft innovation. (should also probably give props to BeOS messages as well...)
Is every one in your family that literal? It must be difficult to use metaphors, metonome, etc.
Information wants to be free because sunshine is the best antiseptic.
...errr, I get passionate about my wife, not an operating system.
The OS is a tool. In that light, it's like getting passionate about a cordless drill. And you need to get out more.
The obvious answer is to make a qsort kernel module and get it out of user space!
Was it Ctrl-Alt-Delete? ...nah that gets you out of windows.
