Maybe you can't use this camera, but imagine one that can take 29 pictures a second, transmit and receive them over some wireless communication device, and is a Palm plugin. You'd have remote video teleconferencing.
This device isn't useful, but I like to see ideas that promise better things for the near future.
Ultimately, this comes full circle so that developer freedom equals user freedom.
It just takes a while in some cases. But look at the improvements to the desktop situation over the last year. Won't journaling be the same over the next one? Both cases are yielding more than one solution so that we end up with diversity rather than homogeneity. The best of both worlds if we can just be patient.
What if Sun is "dumping" StarOffice, a product that pours name brand into the home PC, into the GPL so that others will do development work for them? They maintain their brand association, YOU do the work.

So what. Linux wins, computing is free, Sun is a hero. Freedom. Beer.
I always wonder why the Gnome Help browser wasn't developed further as a browser. It already handles basic HTML and bookmarks. Seems like the rendering part is done, just add Javascript handling, etc.
I read not too long ago that it would soon be able to combine partitions. Does it yet? My 9G drive had the chunk above 8G unusable by either OS until Ranish. His latest version just got me an extra 1.2G of MP3 storage!
Architects design Art. Art defines culture. Culture defines society. Society requests engineered structures based on above. Architects win, mullethead. But I'll admit, few can see the trickle down, which is why less sophisticated cultures respect architects less, i.e. US v. Europe.
As for editing my v14.01.pgp file, I'm just fine thank you. I was refering to that inane requirement of pressing Enter/Space/RightMouse after every command. In DataCAD (and others), every key is hot, and RightMouse returns you to root menu. Sort of like the Varkon I just downloaded. And the default command is drawing a line--NO keystrokes. Middle mouse is snap. Very quick. (And yes I know about the hot key module that you can get for ACAD... again, more $.)
But back to the issue: are there any Free Linux CAD software packages out there that are mostly worthy, at least in 2D?

Dude, notice any MORE sarcasm?!

Either way, cheers to Sun!

Is this because the Nautilus folks took over?
I'm curious why Red Hat doesn't look at Corel. Instant office suite, and one less competitor.
