Is anyone still surprised by this? Unfortunately, all of this legal hullabaloo costs loads of mandays, money and effort that could be spent improving code or making usefull things...
I must say this is a relief... My first child is being born in a few months and I was afraid I'd have to start stashing away Mindstorm kits... It would have been like 'New-Coke' all over again;-)
I'm no expert on magnetic levitation, but won't the fields totally screw with any electronic device in or near the train? Laptop hard-drives, PDA-memory, IPod disk... Or is there an obvious and easy way to shield that stuff?
Who owns it then? Isn't this similar to Kodak or Xerox, where a trademark has lost its protected status because it has become a word in 'common usage'?
Yeah, I remember those... As a kid, I used to play for hours with lego, constructing this, building that... I never understood the appeal behind all those 'branded' sets (Star Wars, Potter...) anyway.

I also hear they are going to introduce a new alien species that look a lot like fish...
1992? More like 1970... Wanna bet there's some story floating around about infectious punch-cards somewhere?
Maybe if we all stand in giant fish-shaped groups, would that show up on the picture?

Hah! Everybody knows the going rate for a healthy baby is way less than $30.000...

Ever heard of a place called Las Vegas? ;-)

Ah! So that is the 'real' agenda behind this tool... Interesting!
I guess this also explains those 'Employees are expected to wash their hands after using the lavatory' signs then ;-)
I agree: you cannot beat 'free' and 'unlimited choice of songs'. At least not in a real free market environment.
There was the television version, and also a couple of stage adaptations... I'm sure it will look good on silver screen too. Can't wait to see this!
Heh, that means we'll soon get all-kinds-of-stuff.google.com ;-)
Imagine entering a query to retrieve your car keys... the possibilities are endless.
Martian beer? I don't think so... wouldn't you need sugar & stuff to ferment first?
What part of 'I checked Ebay' didn't you understand? :-)
Yeah, I remember those... As a kid, I used to play for hours with lego, constructing this, building that... I never understood the appeal behind all those 'branded' sets (Star Wars, Potter...) anyway.
Superglue or not, here in Belgium and The Netherlands millions of mussels are eaten every year ;-)
Why can't you download that from SuSE? Do they give a reason?
That right now the entire planet is between me and Linus, as I am in Belgium...
Anybody know when IPV6 will be there, then? How are they planning on switching everybody over?
I am moving away from RedHat 8 and I'm still doubting between Mandrake and Fedora. Guess this settles it... or not? Which one should I choose?
