The Panoram PV290 DSK is an industrial grade, extreme resolution display for demanding and challenging tasks such as command and control, industrial CAD, engineering, molecular modeling, medical analysis, remote vehicle operation and a low-cost trainer display.
Yeah, it may be designed for industrial strength but that doesn't always make it great. I have a dishwasher that has stainless steel internals as well as one of those excessively huge commercial stainless steel refridges (cafeteria type ones). And the dishwasher craps out all the time and the refridge overheats. It seems the assumption was that it's industrial and stainless steel, it must be good...
Just because something looks cool and is industrial doesn't always mean it's what it's cracked up to be...
Typically Bush stances have been modded down (but we won't get into that). On to the point, Bush seems to take a very laissez faire approach to how the government should approach the internet, which is good.
Governor Bush recognizes that our new economy is driven by the hard work and creativity of men and women in the private sector -- and not by Government bureaucrats.
I don't know about you but I'm rather sick of having the government meddle in my affairs as it is. Unfortunately he also seems to support MORE H1-B visas, which doesn't necessarily agree with another point of his to raise education in order to allow US citizens to meet the demand.
The high tech industry is in great need of highly skilled workers. Too many Americans are unable to fill these jobs because they lack the necessary skills.
However overall (apologies for a link to a homepage), he seems to be very technology oriented especially from what I saw in the last debate, as opposed to Gore that proposed filtering 95% of content at the ISP end.
However, I'm all about exploring both sides of the issues so to present both sides.

It's all part of society's attempt to "pass the buck" when it comes to placing the blame. It seems that in this day and age, it's never anyone's fault for what they did.
Guy- "But officer I was only speeding because my parents were usually speeding when I grew up. It was a bad influence on me."
Officer- "Okay, you're free to go."
Take the Columbine (sorry to resurrect something like this) situation. The media looked for a convenient scapegoat. It was the evil computer games they played and that horrific music. Give me a BREAK! Listening to music and playing GAMES, major emphasis on the word game [which Webster defines: Game- activity engaged in for diversion or amusement] doesn't make me want to go out and beat the crap out of people or worse.
When it comes to something like that, or for things in general it comes down to being the parents responsibility to raise they're children properly. Parents, take an active role in your child's activities. Don't just "pass the buck!"
Dominguez has been working with the Zapatista rebels in Mexico since 1994 to develop nonviolent direct-action tools and spread information about conditions in Chiapas, a mountainous state in southern Mexico, where for the past five years the Zapatistas have clashed with the government.
"I want to bring the net.hacker, net.activist and net.artist into a dialogue about what we can leave to the future for those without a voice and without power -- something the Zapatistas can teach us all," Dominguez says.
This is just a small excerpt from a larger article on CNN on how the web is used to expose conditions and issues which certain "groups" have to deal with. In all essence the Web can be a very effective tool if used properly.
Super NES old, geez don't make me prematurely grey here. I grew up with an Atari 2600 and a Collecovision. The 2 classic gaming consoles. What's up Missle Command and Asteroids...
What's interesting about the article on video games is that it doesn't discuss you having ever purchased the games in first place and being able to legally reproduce them in other formats to play. (IE- I'm making a legitimate backup copy for archive purposes) But, in this case you are using your alternative backup- what it was designed for...
What's up circle reasoning... err cyclical/renewable energy.
Actually, where I live they have started using LED's in stop lights and such because they've found that they last for a longer period of time and seem to be more noticeable to people.
Also of interest is that the rear brake lights of a Chevy Impala now use LED's. Just a random fact...
Not really, but I mean come on... What's up with this idea that it's my right to have free such and such? There are exceptions, but when someone has an original idea or provides a service [ie- Internet Access](if the idea or service is good) don't they deserve to be compensated? Or, in the case of offering a service, deserve to be compensated for their efforts (as long as extravagant compensation is not expected). Not mentioning any names *cough* RIAA, MPAA *cough* *cough*
It says blatantly right here that If you don't want even your anonymous viewing information (information that does not identify you or your household) used in any way, simply tell us by calling our toll-free telephone number (1-877-FOR-TiVo).
Ummm, have you ever studied biology, not to mention read the article?
First he was screened to see if he did not have the disease and that his tissue was compatible.
Second, there is such a thing as genes in genetics. These genes involve chromosomes mainly of two types X and Y. The parents each lend traits to the offspring. Let us take a simple example (forgive me for trying to remember high school biology- back in the day yo) of 1 trait. You set up a simple block diagram and you see:
x y
x xx xy
x xx xy
Wow! in this case he would have only a 50% chance of getting the "disease" assuming the disease was on the y chromosome. Hmmm? Are we learning?
Note:This may not be perfect, but give me a break, I took that class in high school how long ago?
I might point out that as of March 17, Iridium was no longer functional in it's original sense. As a matter of fact the last functioning systems are now down as of Sept 1. The following is a little link regarding the previous:
Dear Valued Motorola Customer:
As you know, Iridium LLC ended commercial service on March 17 of this year. Since then, some limited Iridium service has continued to be available in some geographic areas, depending on the operational status of the various Gateways and Service Providers, while the plan for decommissioning the Iridium System was being finalized. As we have indicated in our communications with our customers, and Gateways and Service Providers around the world, since March 17, there has been the possibility that any remaining Iridium service could end at anytime, without any advance notice.

The next thing you know he'll be arrested for violating some law regarding vaguely worded "breaking and entering" clauses into computer equipment.
Such as this Michigan State statute:
MCL 767.39; MSA 28.979 reads:
Every person concerned in the commission of an offense, whether he directly commits the act constituting the offense or procures, counsels, aids, or abets in its commission may hereafter be prosecuted, indicted, tried and on conviction shall be punished as if he had directly committed such offense.
That would seem to be the general consensus among large businesses. Big Business- We can't afford to be competitive if we hire US citizens to work in the US.
On a thought, if all US businesses hired US employees (as opposed to importing them or farming out jobs to other countries) is it just possible that they might be competitive were it counts? In their home market...
Would it not be reasonable to hire people who were from the US and thereby further build up the future tech base by training people who would be able to make contributions later?

Yea, something else for our kids to memorize in elementary school!
