I thought the reason to put the print head in the cartridge in the first was to make some free money! I think it's Epson or Canon who's been doing this "new way to print" for years...
Unlike the radical change from 1.4 to 2.0, this release can mostly be characterized as one concentrating on polish and finish. It's good to know they have a special upgrade just for users in poland and finland!
If you play on the one of the designer's birthdays, Raptor: Call of the Shadows will give you a silly song for the beginning instead of the usual Apogee ditty.
90% of nonprofit organizations in the U.S. cannot afford to maintain more than 15 networked computers?
That's probably true. If you think about the amount of nonprofits in the U.S. and their average sizes, you will realize that most will never have use for 15 computers at once.
Case in point: I help out once a week at a synagogue in my home town. One of the two largest in our area (the admittedly small city of Cincinnati), they have maybe 1000 families -- ranking them in the upper percentiles of all nonprofits in terms of size. They have 6 computers networked for the religious school, and in the office they have maybe 15. I don't know about the ones in the office, but the school computers are really old Cyrixes. They at the moment do not have any use for additional computers.
My point is that even a very large npo doesn't need that many computers. Take a count of one computer per employee, plus 1 misc per 20 employees, and consider that the average npo has a very few amount of employees.
Remember: Even the Klingon Language Institute is a nonprofit organization. While the larger institutions may dominate the headlines, there are more than enough very small nonprofits to make the 90% figure quite reasonable.
An XML parser exists: libxml. It's technically a GNOME library, but it doesn't depend on any GNOME libs, so it can be used by people without gnome just fine.
The main question, at this point, is converting the myriad types of configuration files over to xml -- and converting the apps to use that new configuration file. If you think about it, almost every app uses a configuration file, and many apps have their own, unique file format. Converting everything over to XML would be a truly Herculean task.
Replace "Pollution" there with "Cigarettes" (changing to plural)
Fine. Ciggarettes are a problem. Criminalize them. Impose huge financial penalties to those who violate the law. Use that for cleanup.
Riiiight. As DeCSS and drugs have shown us, criminalization only drives the problem underground (or, for corporations, gives them more incentive to hide pollution problems). We can't ban cigarettes for fear of a nationwide revolt, but we _can_ tax them in reparation for their detrimental effects on others (e.g. secondhand smoke).
Don't buy it -- It's an evil canadian trick! Think about it... what does Cana-kit most sound like? That's right: Rootkit! Even worse, what's its main purpose? To transmit.
But wait, you say. It's just transmitting music.
Ah ha! That's what they want you to think. While it may be sending music on one channel, this is only a front. Its _real_ transmission is on a much lower frequency, right above the 20m ham band. This enables it to bounce signals off the atmosphere and RIGHT INTO CANADA! They're secretly sending all our root passwords to canada!
In sum, I encourage everyone to boycott this nefarious scheme. We Americans control the world and it should stay that way. G-d bless apple pie and the American way!
If G-d uses tools like these to control the world, it would have to be this one specifically, with slightly remapped buttons: Left, Right, Up, Down, and "Smite".
When I'm typing something, like a school report, I like to have the keyboard in my lap, so I can put my notebook/binder on my desk. Sometimes, my cable doesn't stretch far enough, so I have to reach behind the computer and pull it all the way. A wireless keyboard would eliminate this problem, with no cord to get tangled.
A wireless mouse would also be tremendously useful. Occasionally, the mouse cable gets caught on the back of my desk, limiting the usable range of my mouse to a few inches on the mouse pad, instead of the whole thing.
I don't know what you're talking about. 3rd party chat is allowed except with certain countries (any country we don't have a 3rd-party aggreement with; most 1st-world countries have one IIRC). Other than no commercial activities (use the commercial bands!) and no music (use the radio bands!), anything is permitted. Public safety is used surprisingly often, in everything from natural disasters to severe thunderstorms. Saying the public safety elements are used rarely is like saying that smoke detectors are unnecessary because so few people ever need them.

You can have multiple values for a single tag, but sadly most programs and databases don't support this.
(Quod Libet does.)
It's actually the most expensive console, but they hid the extra cost with $sys$.

Wireless. Less space than a Nomad. Halfway lame.
You fool! Everybody knows that pr0n messes up your computer!

Unfortunately, Japan will continue to use Slashdot for it's grammar checking system.
(And it seems that I should do the same)

Yeah, I stole that one from a Far Side Cartoon. It was topical, so hey

A better question would be: How else are you going to spend it?
In other words: Should I give my money to the RIAA or Time-Warner?
