PCs will be relics when the internet will have the same bandwidth and be as responsive as a locally based system. And seeings God's roadmap on speed of light's increase, we're not nearly there for responsivity.
SUN Microsystems can make the claim again when I can play a decent FPS on some of their hardware.
Office 4.3 = Word 6, excel 5.0 Access 3? = Powerpoint 4?
Office 7.0 = Word 7.0 = Excel 7.0 = Access 7.0 = Powerpoint 7.0 == leveling to the version number of the highest, flagship product
Perfect example: Our customer service department has a rotating "on-call" person. They have a calendar in which they organize who's turn it is. I query the DB once a day to let my Asterisk server know who to redirect the call to. Totally seamless, and that's just a small small example.
When I see ads in Gmail for apartments not just in my hometown, but in my district (Brussels Europarliament), when I have actually been looking for appartments in that district, *though not through google*, I am not certain spyware has been exagerated except by the people who wrote them.
The Insensitive Clod routine is well known by/. readers. It is a comment about the white, wealthy, healthy american male around which/. focusses too much.
Also, the ESA didn't go OMGWTFBBQ and ground the future missions when they noticed the Vulcain engine had burned a 5 cm x 5 cm(1) thing on the launchpad.
Finally it cost a fraction of an STS mission so it would put US to shame.

What's this Kudos you're talking about ? Is it another fork or that CPM rip off that spawned MSDOS ?
In German vee zay "Schell". Period.

Not over yet : Roland Pisspie still has to submit a story to Timothy about it.
This guy's gonna be so fired !
No real power button is a poor idea if there is a slight chance that the OS might hang, which is the case.
The fonts are too big and don't allow to see most of the song's title
There's no way to fast seek a song in a 4000+ list, you will have to accelerate the scrolling and will overshoot.
If I select an "Artist" for which no songs are marked as being in an "Album", I should not have to select "All"
Skype does instant messaging. Unless gtalk does provide VoIP integrated with the POTS, there's no way I going to run a second programme.

It's been OK to laugh about Hiroshima since december 1967.
Do they call their headquarters at Edimburg "England Yard" ?
Yeah but it's old Europe so /. won't mention it.

That's why in Europe, legal fees get paid back by the losing party.
