I propose a physical switch to toggle between read/write and read only. Even if it could be controlled remotely by a management server, it would provide a nice increase in security.
To answer your question about using white LEDs as a backlight: it costs slightly more. That being said, many notebook screens are now LED backlit. It's a selling point since they are more power efficient and brighter.
Not all houses are sold at a huge loss, which makes option A seem to have little to do with reality. I understand the real-estate market can be volatile, but the historic trend is to grow with the rest of the economy. Fractiod's comment about mortgages is quite interesting. I suppose he's likely right, but I've never seen the data.
To some extent I think you're right. The obsession with home ownership severely limits many people's ability in the job market. It's not because the majority of sales are at a loss, but because people want to stay in the same home for non-economic reasons.
And America has fucked public transit. Everyone knows. The main factors are population density and political commitment.

.bash_history isn't a security audit. It's for the user's convenience and has nothing to do with security.
An ACL system can be useful for security audit, and they aren't controlled by the user.
I use horizontal tabs too, and occasionally use the drop down in the top right. It's completely incorrect to say that the drop down menu needs to be used every time I want to switch tabs. I'm almost always switching between nearby tabs, and the tab I want to switch to is generally visible in the tab bar. I usually navigate to it with ctrl+tab or ctrl+shift+tab, but I could directly click on it as well.
I estimate that I use the drop down list once in every 50-100 tab switches.
All that said, the tree layout does seem interesting and useful. I know many people have some sort of compulsion to maximize every window they use, and this OCD behaviour, coupled with the ubiquity widescreen displays leaves plenty of horizontal space available. I think a pretty strong UI could be made if the horizontal pane wasn't only used for tabs, but for other functions as well.
I think there is a need for two types of interfaces. One for people who maximize their windows, and one for people who prefer a multiple movable windows metaphor.
I think you're right. My expectations of being able to do almost everything in C# were too high. Generally, I'm much happier with this environment than C++ and win32, so I don't like falling through the cracks when it happens.
Apple IS abandoning Carbon. There will be no 64-bit version of it http://arstechnica.com/staff/fatbits.ars/2008/04/02/rhapsody-and-blues, so no one is going to be using it before long. Compare this to the current state of.NET, where developers have to constantly mix in win32 calls to do anything but the most basic applications. My own personal experience with.NET is only a few months, but I have had to use Win32 API a lot.
And NeXTStep is a magical, shiny, new API compared to Win32, which is the biggest mess I've ever seen. Admittedly, I'm used to simpler systems like UNIX.
Is it really like that? I thought the person making an action would be responsible for the crime. One of the points in the RIAA case was to verify the identity of the person they were suing was really the person who violated their copyright. Wouldn't that be even more important if there was a serious charge?
Maybe having an open WiFi would even provide some sort of protection because of the wrench it would throw into proving identity in a trial.
In reality, this stuff probably varies from state to state, and saying it's just one way is almost certainly wrong. And who knows how it is in different countries? I'm living out of the USA and have no almost idea what the laws are here (Poland).
Law is far too confusing to actually follow, and that's really a bad thing.
And good luck finding a service station the other 5% of the time. I think that if electric cars gain popularity, service stations will lose first profitability and secondly quantity.
If they're selling something to only 5% of the previous market, how can there be a viable business model?
This is completely wrong. Transportation energy comes from oil. Electricity in the USA comes from coal, nuclear, hydro or (local) natural gas. Oil is only relevant for the transportation. By publicly claiming that the vast majority of our (presumably USA?) energy comes from oil, I'm led to believe you will tell any lie to push your agenda. However, you could merely be uninformed, caught up in the traps laid by the liars before you.

I don't have an Android phone, but I wonder if this can stand in for the Android market to allow restoring the wanted Google apps.
The "ton" rating they use on nuclear explosives is the TNT equivalent, not the weight. TNT equivalent is an energy measurement (4.184 x 10^9 Joules).
This bomb has 15 tons of mass, but only 2.65 tons of conventional explosives. The Davy Crockett linked by Ihlosi only weighs 51 lbs.

Why don't you buy a book on QT?
http://www.amazon.com/C-GUI-Programming-Qt-4/dp/0131872494
http://www.amazon.com/Book-Qt-Art-Building-Applications/dp/1593271476
http://www.amazon.com/Foundations-Development-Experts-Voice-Source/dp/1590598318
And the QT reference docs are well organized in my experience.
Yeah. Like Nintendo.
Which 10" MacBook are you referring to?
"Having to pull down a drop down menu every time you want to switch tabs pretty much nullifies the use of a tab bar in the first place"
I was just saying that this argument was a straw man.
I'm going to try tree style tags, but I'm more interested in the intelligent grouping than the need to see more tabs at once.
I use horizontal tabs too, and occasionally use the drop down in the top right. It's completely incorrect to say that the drop down menu needs to be used every time I want to switch tabs. I'm almost always switching between nearby tabs, and the tab I want to switch to is generally visible in the tab bar.

You were just 14 too fast from having a truly 1337 uid. Nothing special with a 4 digit ID unless it's that. Now 3 digit ones, they're all special ;)

You said, "Not only this, but according to common indictors, the US has the worst wealth distribution in the world, and its getting worse every year."

That's not true as stated. It's true that the wealth distribution has been getting worse, but USA's is not the worst in the world. It is the worst of the developed contries, however. Here's a chart, from a nice trustworthy, unbiased source, the CIA.

Exactly. Besides, it's a tried and true method. This is how we won the war on drugs.
