Grab a nice C2Duo MacBook 2GHz for around US$1400. You'll never look back. Just got 802.11n added. And it'll support 64-bit OSX 10.5 when it comes out.
The withdrawal symptoms from XP only last a couple of weeks.
The only thing I can guess is that a lot of the people who are reporting outrageous system demands from Vista are running to check the performance meters right after the system boots. (Just because you can move the mouse doesn't mean it's done yet.)
Really?
Because OSX lets me get straight on with things once the desktop pops up (about 20secs boot on my Core1Duo MacBook Pro 2.16GHz).
Again and again I see these conspiracy theories spring up in print and on the web.
and again and again they are flawed because of one single reason - they only account for the health service in the USA.
In Europe, where healthcare is socialised and government-run, the government (that's right, the same guys who buy the drugs from big pharma to the guys to allow their licenses and patents to remain legal) has no, absolutely none whatsoever, no reason to keep people sick. They're less productive. They're more of a tax burden on the rest of society.
Sick people cost money.
In the US, that comes out of your own pocket. Boo hoo, cry to big pharma about the drugs you have to pay for. It must be a conspiracy, the cure is just around the corner.
In the EU, that money comes from the government. People too greedy and selfish to want big pharma to keep cures hidden.
Of course, you could just invest the same funds in rebuilding (or maybe actually building) the palestinian territories, providing them with decent roads, schools, hospitals and municipal buildings and they wouldn't want to blow you the fuck up all the time...
I absolutely agree. I only wish we'd adopt the same system here in the UK where even Americans are turning up to claim asylum, freely admitting it's because of the free healthcare they can get over here.

I really want some of what you're smoking.
Your parable is just thinly-veiled support for military power, written by a (surprise-surprise) squaddie.
What next? Doctors likening themselves to the vet that sheep don't like but still need to go see when things go wrong and how vets are really really important?

One slight critique:
You're way more likely to get thyroid cancer -- without ever knowing it or suffering any ill effects from it
Where's you pull that statistic from?

Wow...Vista sure sounds great already.
Umm...isn't she based in Taipei, which is in Taiwan - otherwise known as an entirely separate nation state from 'China'?

Now please get your head out of your arse.
Always with the goddamned terrorists!
Give it a rest with the terrorists could've done this, terrorists could've done that already wouldya?
How did you find out? I'm genuinely interested.
Good to see you yanks apply them to those poor bastards suffering in Gitmo.
AFAIK, here in the UK, the loser always pays the winner's legal fees as one way of reducing the number of frivolous suits we have.
I sincerely hope you've sent that to the newspaper which featured that article, and to the MP himself.
You might just make him sit back and think.
evidence?
My mind's open on this one. Please provide it...

Or is it too obvious and non-lethal a solution?
Mmm...taste that sweet, sweet milk gained by milking the cash-cow to its last drop.

Just wow.

>>Legalizing drugs isn't going to stop the organized crime aspect of it.
Are you on drugs?
From what I remember of history, the bootlegging and illegal sales of alcohol pretty much took a nosedive once Prohibition was repealed.
And jeez, all that organized crime involved in selling cars/sweets/pharmaceuticals/etc. really swamps the legal sales of those same items.
Legalising drugs is the only way to stop the organised crime aspect of the drug trade.
Fucktard.
