It's not my primary OS, it is an Internet Explorer delivery mechanism (for shitty MS-only websites). Why would I upgrade, except to waste RAM consumed by my VM?
Who the hell cares what Al Gore is driving? One's sense of right and wrong should not come from whether or not they can find someone else on earth doing the wrong thing anyhow. Incidentally, it appears Gore drives a Lexus Hybrid from a little bit of Googling. Yes, I know, his house, etc., etc. but again, he's not my teen idol and I don't see why it's relevant.
If only... then they'd still be circling the drain like they were before they made the change.
A "proper US-sized engine block" is a selfish and environmentally damaging pointless excess. Thankfully the sales figures these days appear to corroborate that.
The summary sucks (big Palm fan here, BTW). The Pre3 was never even released. It probably could have done alright. In any case, something that's never released cannot be a failure. I'd personally love to get my hands on a Verizon model (but not enough to pay $500).
I was most recently told at PBI "You know we don't use the X-ray type, it's the other one." I said, "yeah, that's not why I'm not doing it -- I'm not doing it because I think it's stupid."
The rest is nonsense. That is not what labor unions are about, and often they cannot do anything about the circumstances you discussed. If you don't think that corruption is rampant in labor unions, more likely is that you're in a position to know that it's simply not accurate. Is it possible to say that there is NO corruption in labor unions? No more possible than it is to say there's no corruption in any other human-run enterprise.
Your asinine sarcasm aside, it would be more like confusing the state of Wyoming with the United States of America. Is that something that people are prone to do these days too?
There is e-mail like that (heads up type stuff) that I appreciate. I suspect the problem that people are concerned with is someone expecting to e-mail you and have you get back to them, or worse, do some work that they just conjured up. I'm with you, I want to know ASAP if I'm walking into something in the morning, but if someone e-mails me to do something non-emergency at 9:00pm, if they get a reply, it's an "I'll deal in the morning."
I occasionally do. It's because I know that answering this e-mail that might be a two second question (what is the serial number for such and such or can you please send me the output of fcinfo or whatever) and answering it will mean that someone is still working on my problem (someone who/is/ scheduled to work at that time). If taking 5 mins at the wrong time of day can save me a couple of hours waiting at the beginning of the next shift, it's worth is. Maybe I come in 5 mins late next shift, whatever. But really depending on what it is, answering an e-mail is not a major hassle if you don't happen to be in the middle of something else.

I believe the Pre2 and higher DID get Flash however.
OK, yes, that I don't know. I know Palm had lots of patents, but I don't know their disposition when HP bought them.
Yeah, that's right -- and apparently it was one day. But yeah, nothing in the US.
Looks like a great phone though.
But also the sense to execute it in a way that people wanted to use it. There /is/ something to that.
It's not an assumption -- I've seen it written very specifically about Palm a number of times (but couldn't tell you from memory).

The last dude who gave me the going over was a 60-ish year old white haired gentleman. I can pass.

You're confusing a corporate bankruptcy with personal bankruptcy I think.
I have one but the plastic has cracked in a couple of places and I'm pretty careful. I like it otherwise.
I don't know if you're lying or just don't know what you're talking about, but it is not accurate: http://money.cnn.com/2005/07/25/news/economy/boycott/

Unlikely. Union density in the USA is very low.
What about those statements describes the Occupy movement?
Thank you for illustrating my point beautifully.

Sure you have.

I am cheap and only have one phone (theirs).
One could fairly easily say the same about whatever system you're supporting and be even more accurate.
I would love to know what that statement has to do with the living conditions in Germany, which have little to do with Volkswagen.

Unfortunately no. Unions represent something like 7% nowadays. :-\
