If it's your kid to play with it, then it's a "toy". If it's it can play with your kids (and your family), then it's not.
A computer (or a smatphone) disguised as a toy with full networking ISN'T A TOY! It's a computer on the internet with microphones, cameras, GPS, wifi... you name it.
Go buy dolls, Lego bricks, books (from dead trees), card games and the likes. Your kids won't feel "different from the others". It's you that who thinks you kids could feel different. They are kids, they need real friends, runs and scraped knees.
How can the French Tax Office gauge and check all those companies' profits? No way! Unless the big companies will friendly declare all their revenues. Ah ah ah ah! They will end up with a totally gratuitous lump sum, aka tarif forfaitaire. You make me laugh out loud, Mr. President!
ARM was not so much known for its low power consumption at the time, but rather for its speed: the Archimedes was running circles around the Amiga and all other personal computers.
I think we had to wait until the NeXTcube to see something as advanced as the Archimedes. This time also the software (from OS up) was ahead of its time.
Less energy and more efficient usage is the key to real environmentally savvy policies. Renewables and lower prices can lead to higher energy use.
Higher energy use is by itself a good thing. If we had enough cheap energy, we could transmute lead into gold as much as we wanted. The more energy you have the more cool things you can make happen.
The only problem is when energy production damages the environment. That is what we want to avoid, but don't get confused that the goal is less energy use.
Any energy you use will be in part transformed into heat to be released into the environment. It's not my belief, it's thermodynamics. More energy == More heat. Do you still think this is good?

Why not just shooting at that flying junk?
Use only a browser. Let her use whatever she wants.
Which is among the reasons humans have been doing that since very long time now.
Until the craze for cremating dead bodies.

How do you spell "lego bricks"?
I do understand mine. Three in my family and 20+ at school.

Cool!
Please, Mr. Slash Dot, notice the fine UTF-8 related bug I am showing up here!
Just like the DSA, Divided States of America!

Pleeease!
Neat box, indeed!
We are missing all this pioneering from the good ol' days!
Displaying thousands of colors at once doesn't mean you are ahead of time.
I used the Archimedes in 1987 to emulate the IBM PC.
Many people could at first not believe that:
"You mean you can read MS-DOS formatted disks?"
"No, I mean that I use it to compile my Modula-2 programming assignments using the MS-DOS TopSpeed compiler - and also to run WordPerfect."

was really ahead of its time!
Am I a terrorist supporter?
I read some idiotic answers here, am i an idiot?
(Sure, I am).
It is idiots' swallowing anything you write.
Is that possible?
And a full lot of it.
Intelligence requires efforts.
It's like you get stock quotations from your neighbour TV instead of nyse.com.
Unless they are working on a clearly ill-suited environments or they are experts, how can they know?
Yes, it did!
