I bought an Apple IIc and mechanical printer from Eaton's.... They were marked down for quick sale.... I was shocked by the very considerable noise the floppy drive (a separate box) made.
Was it marked down because the previous owner had disassembled it possibly?
You need some kind of safety device, which can be a camera, and/or some kind of plastic armour around the driver's seat. I can see why some drivers go for the cameras.
Unless the build system is screwed up, recompiling after a change should be relatively fast. Usually source code is stored as lots of smaller files [...] Then next time a rebuild is requested, the system should notice what changed, and only rebuild the needed parts.
Unless you are shipping the original installation media, don't you have the same issue as the OP in creating a bootable recovery DVD as you do with creating a bootable recovery partition?
Note that "industry standard" Velcro doesn't stick as well with Macs. You want go get the special Mac-compatible Velcro that you can buy from the Apple Store. Sure it costs a bit more, but you're protecting your investment. (Well at least that's what the guy told me when I bought mine.)

Keep in mind that the pricing model your carrier offers at the moment is based on what the consumer is prepared to pay, rather than what the service actually costs them to offer.
Some plans offer SMS for "free", but at the end of the day you're still paying.
If the market changes such that the consumer will no longer pay extra for SMS, then those fees will be absorbed into something else the consumer is prepared to pay for.
Be careful with fire safes. They are generally designed and rated for paper, not electronic media
The other thing to be careful of are fire safes that have a layer of damp material in them surrounding the fire safe part. The idea is that this material "sweats" the moisture during a fire. These are great for preventing your paper from burning in an office fire, but not so good for your electronic media. Simply putting your media in a watertight container inside this area might help you here.
You're paying the ISP for the transfer of bits. Those bits are identical (aside from certain peering and QoS issues) whether they are from Facebook, YouTube or Slashdot
Those "certain peering issues" can make a big difference. Suppose your ISP has a peering agreement with YouTube that makes it very cheap for your ISP to send you lots of bits from YouTube, but video content from Company XYZ comes over a WAN link that is expensive for your ISP. If Company XYZ becomes popular with your ISP's customers, this is not a cost-neutral situation to the ISP.
In Australia we already need a license to reproduce copyright material (including copying song words, and sheet music). Fair use includes reproducing stuff for educational purposes, but it imposes a limit on the proportion of a work that you can copy. e.g. I couldn't publish a song book of copyright works and claim that it was fair use.
Probably the advantage of something like ancestry.com (or its counterparts in other countries) is the easy access to source records. Depending on how serious you are with this, this can be much bigger factor than the cost for the service storing the data.
Of course what source data you can get depends on where your ancestors came from, and when.
If you are concerned with accuracy, how much you use the ability to link with trees from others will depend on how accurate you think their trees are.

What? No nits jokes so far? C'mon people!
I wonder if this tablet is safe for use in education.
Even my mom's phone can send and receive photos.
Me: Great photo. Can you send it to me?
Her: How?
Me: Um. Beam it to me. Does your phone have NFC?
Her: No idea
Me: How about MMS?
Her: I don't think that's set up properly on my phone. My plan doesn't have MMS.
Me: OK. Maybe bluetooth?
Her: Oh I know how to use that. Let me scan for your phone. Hmm it is not finding it. Is your phone discoverable?
Me: Let me check. I think so. Oh wait - I'm having a problem with my bluetooth at the moment. I upgraded the driver, and it has been playing up.
Her: So what do you suggest?
Me: Maybe e-mail it to me.
Her: OK. What's your e-mail address? I don't have it in my phone.
Me: Let me spell it out to you...
You know how it goes...

I feel your pain brother.

Probably of feathers, because on the moon they would fall at the same speed.
Oh great. It hardly seems worth even starting playing the series now that you have totally spoiled Final Fantasy VII for me!

The plane is unlikely to break such that two diametrically opposite parts of the plane will impact the ground or water with equal severity.
That would be a fun Mythbusters episode.
You keep using this word. I do not think it means what you think it means.

If you never tested it, how do you know it works? Although I guess you could take this too far.... OCD anyone?
You have friends? Who let you use their computer????
the stadium has thousands more TVs, each with its own IP address
The truth is out: Football is driving the IPv4 address space exhaustion!

No big deal IMHO.
