WMA DRM is pretty open, as far as DRM goes. Anyone can be a content provider and put restrictions on stuff. Except for the Zune, which is locked into its own "experience," any device/app supporting WMA DRM can play content from any provider.
It uses the offline files system to smartly synchronize the files, and maintain them when you're off the network. Also, it doesn't sync the whole profile. You can configure what you want to sync.
I always proposed a training and certification program for self-checkout lanes. You have to scan your membership (which works at different stores of course) then you can checkout. That way granny won't be wondering why she can't place her items right back into her cart.
If you're really running a complicated website with multiple applications like this, should you really be depending on an AJAX-y control panel to set it up?
The ribbon does allow for more screen real estate. It's really no thicker than office was before, having one menu and two toolbars. Plus, it'll never get thicker than that (with extra toolbars).
The best part, though? A quick double click to any of the ribbon headers hides the whole thing. That turns it very minimalistic.
To be fair, MS had a motion sensing gamepad out many years ago. I have one (haven't used it in a while). It does pitch and roll (no yaw).
I've tried to play flying games with it (MS flight sim), and it sucked then, and I'll be surprised if it doesn't suck now. It's hard to get any precision from such things. Maybe they've improved, but I doubt it.
Wouldn't you rather have one well thought out, secure identification system, than many disparate insecure systems like today? Unfortunately, we can't go back to the 19th century on this one.

You'd really appreciate this, then:

Accurate or not, it's a graph of Apache vs. IIS calls, NOT Linux vs. Windows. Also old as hell.
Another quality article from Slashdot.
Nintendo should never have put straps on in the first place. They should have just told people to not let go.
On another note, Gizmodo has a bit on how strong the strap is...pretty strong if you ask me.
Jan 1, 1970 isn't the only Epoch in common use.
...as in record labels? There isn't all that much music on YouTube, last time I checked...
Can you say anything if you just ask?
Vista doesn't come with OneCare (anti-virus)
It does come with Windows Defender (anti-spyware)
From what I gather, they wanted to include both, but they could only include anti-spyware because there wasn't an anti-trust problem there.
Somebody care to explain why this doesn't apply to deadbolts?
Folder redirection is not roaming profiles.
It uses the offline files system to smartly synchronize the files, and maintain them when you're off the network. Also, it doesn't sync the whole profile. You can configure what you want to sync.
Configure folder redirection. Then the "My Documents" folder will be on the network, and users won't have to know anything special to save there.
The desktop is still a problem though.

Who says this isn't good for business?
I thought this number referred to the sampling rate...
You're thinking 8bit audio to 16bit audio.

How could virtualization spell the end of Microsoft and the tech economy as we know it?
Indeed.

Perhaps trying to differentiate from Digg?
Doesn't bother me. I kinda like it.

They aren't very intelligent if they post about it publicly online.
Indeed. Once you know a few basics (like those D-Link didn't), NTP tends to "Just Work."

The stock quotes are real time, without a page refresh. Cool.
On the other hand, they let Dvorak write for them? Why?
Just switched. Should have a long time ago, for many reasons.
Ah. Thanks for making that abuntantly more clear. Well put.
