Consumers will agree to whatever you tell them to do, as long as you give a "discount" for the service. They don't even have to know they're agreeing...just put a blurb about being monitored in the license portion of the InstallShield script, and you're done.
You get your hard drives from best buy? I have always found them to be terribly overpriced. 30 gig drives are currently around $80-$100 everywhere I shop.
Your quote has a typo in it, and it should really be a part of your.sig so people like me can choose not to see it.
Traditionally, one of the complaints against Apple has been that their systems are too expensive, due to the fact that they use pricey components where commodity components will do (SCSI, etc). This simply continues the "proud" tradition of macs being too expensive for the grubby common man, thus ensuring that mac users can continue clinging to the dated idea that they are superior to everyone else.

Yeah, man...I was going to say something about that but decided against it.
oooh, too-won, three-four...send it to Zoom!

Strange...I never really realized before now that 90210 is probably the only ZIP code that people outside the U.S. know of. Having a dealer in Southern California would likely be a waste, as that region of the country has some of the most agreeable weather around, and hence almost no demand for this sort of vehicle accessory.
I heard that show was finally cancelled. Whew. That awful title always made me think of Chuck Norris beating the shit out of a bunch of baseball players. It even had a spinoff series.
If making bread and other such busywork is fun to you, try "The Sims" instead of RPG's. You can bake bread, eat it, put the remains in the trash, watch the trash rot, and take the garbage out to the curb. Realism, whee.
Oh, come on...I don't see every car on the freeway maintaining a two-second distance from the car in front of them. If such a fanciful thing ever did happen, it would make hour-long traffic jams into day-long traffic jams.
In the USA there is a glorious invention known as "absentee voting" which enables the concerned citizen to travel abroad without fear of losing his vote due to not being physically present at the voting booth.
Yeah, but firstly, the big consulting companies are all run by pricks, and secondly, they're very choosy about who they choose to rip off^H^H^H^H^H^H^Hemploy...unless you went to a small Eastern university or you have a family friend who's head of a division it would probably be easier to just get your own visa.
You start off by saying you met the main developers, and then follow with a story about how the marketing guys are idiots? Marketing guys are always idiots! What about the developers?
Yup, you're entirely correct. In a few years, the use of network diagnostic tools will be restricted to a few licensed individuals, due to the abuse of those tools by criminals. Curious individuals will find their internet access cut off again and again, as complaints are made to their service providers by automated intrusion detection systems. The only reason this does not exist today is the lack of infrastructure necessary to implement it.
"Today's verdict, if allowed to stand, poses a serious threat to all technology companies that try to protect their inventions through our intellectual property laws. It puts innovators at risk of forfeiting their intellectual property rights by simply attending meetings of a standard setting committee."
Lesson? Don't attend standard setting committee meetings. Set your own standards.

Both of those usages pass the political correctness test, and are heard frequently on American television.

Uh, you most certainly could turn off file sharing in Napster. It would pop up a text box saying "it's not nice be so selfish" but that was it.
"In many of these companies, there's not a single line of Qt or a Linux box in sight."
So, where do I go to get hired?
Nobody has done it before, therefore it can't be done...been there, heard that, got the T-shirt...snore...zzz...next
Excellent troll. I look forward to the responses.

Clue: if the EMP fried your computers, it fried the computers at the store as well.

nah, it's just that colliding with a car from the rear is not conclusive evidence that it's your fault, police procedure notwithstanding.

Nice try, but the months ago the Taliban discontinued poppy production in Afghaninstan, and this was confirmed by the UN and satellite photography.

Use of any computing resources is restricted to authorized personnel only. Are you authorized? If not, it's a crime.
