And how will the system update? When you need to flash a new version on to it, how will it download, unzip, and move the files into place if it takes 20 Gigs just to download it...?
what has shitty air got to do with whether a college grad takes a factory job or not? working in the office next door to the factory automagically makes the air better? Even though you're paid 3X less than that factory worker?
And if the world only has two production lines, yes. In a world where there's multiple production lines by multiple companies, you are telling me if one factory concentrates solely on touch screens (which is a minuscule portion of the overall display market), they will be able to make touch screens cheaper than another factory that concentrates on non-touch screens?
If you didn't catch the flu, or has the infection period considerably shortened by the vaccine, doesn't that count as a reduced effect on transmission?

It's not just like the XBox 360 is not a PC.
I'm not saying you cannot turn it into one. After all, if a Microwave can be internet connected, it too can be turned into a PC.
you are seriously arguing listing out usable space when a large fraction of it is used by from the factory is a bad thing?
1%-5% used up - that is accounted as overhead by most people.
50% used up, that's not fucking overhead any more.

You are thinking like this is a PC. It's not, no matter how much you think it is.
Because code is different by law. If you don't like it, get it changed.
And don't think book publishers are not trying to do that "not sold, only licensed" shit as well.
The DCMA problem is in the part that you cannot flash, O Mighty Open Sourcerer.
You do realize that you don't normally flash the phony bits right? That's why the Nexus on Verizon had issues being upgraded, etc etc.
Do you honestly think that offices will be fitted with HEPA rated air purifiers?
And not all factories are cancer soaking labs.
I did mention "in USA" right? So, were you thinking the "in USA" big airlines pay their pilots $250k in yen, perhaps?
Guess what happens when you google for "average pilot salary"? quite a few links. this one has good info from actual pilots.

Also, I did not talk about average pilots. I talked about unionized pilots for one of the big airlines.
Only difference is that these factory jobs pay up to 3X of what a college grad can get out of school.

A factory worker in China can make up to as much as a pilot. A unionized pilot in USA for one of the big airlines makes $250k to $500k.
If you gave me that to work in a factory, I'd go.
Guess what happens in China? They save up their money, and in 3-5 years go back to their home town rich, and start their own business.
seriously? factory job == menial job? did you read about how factory workers can go work in different factories easily?
So why are you too lazy to go do this since it takes no special skillset to do it? Or are you less than special?
That seems kinda dickish.
"They've dumbed down cars nowadays, not like us, I know how to build a car from ground up".
Yup, still dickish.

Suuuuuuure. Whatever man.
I think you missed the point where these new screens with touch elements cost heck of a lot more than standard LCDs.
So, adding touch elements to a screen will make it cheaper than non-touch screens.
OK, got it.
What the fuck have you been smoking? Mono is *NOT* win32. Gnome is not win32. What else has Miguel done that _is_ win32?!
Oh shit. So instead of multiple physical remotes, we can now look forward to multiple virtual remotes? *puke*
"context" is a useful concept.
Unless your phone tunnels all traffic through your desktop.
Oh, how nice. You have a second account to score me down. *tsk tsk*
Apparently you give it to Saei :P
Errr, except that it was a woman...
Give an AC the ability to post but not read and here's what happens... :P
If you didn't catch the flu, or has the infection period considerably shortened by the vaccine, doesn't that count as a reduced effect on transmission?
Or am I living in a magical world again?
