Very true , most programmers are overawed with their own achievements that they forget other people's achievements and therefore their rights on what they achieve. I create something great and someone else steals it without a thank you- which in these times means money- is very ungenerous I feel.
We should all reject such books if it doesn't suit us. The purchaser mostly has his way and if there aren't enough takers they will be forced to sell a book as it should be.
If this is true, we are going to have not couch potatoes but couch pumpkins. As it is, a large population is already overweight with eating chocholate and sitting with their TV remotes. And now this, they'll never get out of their seats and grow huger by the day. Maybe they should start manufacturing seats with some agitator or exerciser so that their bodis can work while they are vitually bound to their seats.
Yes free publicity is what authors of banned books get. Most them are just average and some are downright rubbish . Take for example this book called "Lajja" from Taslima Nasrin, the Bangladeshi author who it seems had her life threatened. I read her book, it was nothing but some news clippings of communal violence in Bangladesh , put toghether in a haste. Worst of all even the clippings were repetitive. It was pain to read the so called book . I would call it a scrap book put toghether by someone who could barely read and write.
After that experience it takes me a long time to actually get around to reading such books.
Ya its very good to do that,For the wages part, but you forget that this lets more and more people to settle there thus closing chances of new people coming in. No new guys means not much of fresh ideas,fresh approach. America gains by not only cheap labour but also the freshness of ideas and attitude. You know the apple-Newton story,don't you.
Every time there is a new milestone covered in science I wish I were born a few centuries later, so that I would be in an age where alot more things would have been made possible . Anyways since I can't exactly do anything about it anymore,might as well wish some smart guy not only makes the time machine but also lands up on me so that I can travel to the future.
Intel has cranked up the speed of its fastest notebook PC processor to 850 MHz, while vendors including Toshiba, Compaq, and Dell unwrapped new systems powered by the latest chips. Santa Clara, Calif.-based Intel released two mobile Pentium III processors running at 800 MHz and 850 MHz. The chips use Intel's SpeedStep power management technology, which allows them to conserve battery life by running at a slower clock speed when the notebook is unplugged from a mains supply. Intel also increased the speed of its fastest Celeron chip from 650 MHz to 700 MHz. Intel's Celeron family is designed for lower-cost notebooks.
Honestly does anyone , specially school children need these notebooks. Aren't they increasing the gap between children coming fron different income groups if introduced in shools?
I am sure any bank would be very concerned with its reputation and aware of its competition, and will take more pains to ensure that its online customers get adequate security. After the leek of such reports many an employee and heads of E-divisions would have been grilled by the banks. Where income and survival is concerned the online banks themselves will prove to be their own police and insure customer data.
The very fact that people are discussing the downs of the Dotcom age is proof that that it is still a very important surviving part of our society. No Farewell opportunities here.

Could be there are other freindlier places than Mars. A millinium is a long long time specially as the pace is growing.

There goes another program for security, and immediately there will be another breaking that .

why are you so verbose and vague? Who would lend you a shoulder to cry if you are going to bore them with so many words.
