Banks here also try to ban hats, sunglasses and using cellphones in their premises... Yet they rarely kick you out if you don't comply (they still want your money, I guess)

This is very important, because if Ford* needs to release the information needed to repair the Focus* to the state of Massachusetts, they will basically make it available everywhere in the world where Ford sells this car.
Similar to other US state laws regarding pollution or safe materials, this will affect us worldwide
I would also like to recommend the Acer Aspire One. Once you install it with Ubuntu Netbook remix, it is the perfect machine for browsing the net and doing some light work.
I also use it on my D&D sessions as a sound recorder and note-taker.
The only thing I would change in it (please netbook manufacturers take note!) would be to allow the screen to turn and cover the keyboard, so its easier to use as an ebook.
I know of two people who were unhappy with their netbooks, but after a couple of questions, it became clear that they were unhappy with Windows XP's performance in that hardware.
I showed them my Ubuntu Netbook remix netbook and they were impressed. One of them even switched.
I think people have forgotten how slow and unwieldy XP was when a mid-tier computer had specs similar to today's "low-powered" netbooks...
If you browse YouTube, you will find out that a non-trivial percentage of the videos are uploaded by school kids all over the world (yes, including developing countries)

A few years ago, I helped clean up an abandoned house and while doing so, we found a very large tomato plant in the backyard.
We figured it had bloomed from tomato seeds from the construction workers' refuse. We ate a few of the fruits (they were good, albeit a bit small).
Later we found out the drain pipe had a leak just below that plant, making it obvious why it had grown so beautifully...

The Church of Maradona would probably just taunt them with a reminder of Argentina's victory over England in Mexico 1986
You know, the game with the "Hand of God"?

Nah!
I wish them joy of each other!
Yeah... and institute mandatory daily Two-Minute Hate sessions while we are on it.

Sorry, I though you were the author.
Nevermind then

Sorry, but even a teen girl's MySpace page is easier to read than this website...
Please do some research on how to format text in a way that doesn't kill the eyes:

wait a sec... is Wikipedia included in the Web 2.0 Cult list? I couldn't read the whole of it!
This a bad analogy.
...because it's not a car analogy!
At least where I live, Linux netbooks were never available at the major stores... I got one with Windows XP and installed Ubuntu the same day.

From wikipedia: "Haiku typically contain a kigo, or seasonal reference, and a kireji [lit. 'cutting word'] or verbal caesura."
A haiku is more
Than five, seven, and five words.
Fuck you, it's autumn.
I bow to your superior skill
I'm still using a 17" CRT, you insensitive clod!
(although I hope to change it to a 22" LCD in November)
Thanks for the info

You're one of those people who can't enjoy anything unless it's technically accurate, aren't you?
Stop having fun this instant!

Theologically speaking, it's not to avoid "Allah feeling threatened and insecure".
The rug maker is just insuring himself that he won't fall to pride and hubris.
I endorse both your comment and your sig.
