I am so torn over your post. On the one hand you make a compelling and insightful case for the way things should have been handled and yet your spelling is so atrocious I am forced to assume English is not your native language and you don't use a spell checker.
Oh, and I'm not sure the English teacher would be the correct person to explain the subtle differences of libel and satire. She might know how their definitions differ but a radio shock jock probably knows more about the practical applications.
My $10 shirts last longer than your HP Inkjet printer. My HP LJ IV OTOH will most likely outlast cockroaches. Too bad hp spun off its braintrust when they figured out they could make more money selling printer ink than test equipment.
Microsoft's strategy has been to let some other company prove there is a market for a particular function then buy a competing product and gradually improve it (and modify the OS so that the competitor doesn't run as well) until they take over the market
I put my money on Palm having a Pre-production (pun intended) version of a WebOS tablet ready to go and just needed a sugar daddy to pay for manufacturing.
Actually the saying I use when my coworkers complain it is too cold in the office but I'm still hot is "You can always add more layers while I have only so many I can take off". That mental image usually shuts them up for a while.
You have violated the TOS you agreed to by opening the packaging. Please relinquish the device post haste. Failure to produce the device will result in you being thrown in the apple shark tank (also known as the limo the lawyers ride in).
In a word...no. In fact at present Texas doesn't have the GRID infrastructure to get all the electricity that is produced by West Texas wind farms to the cities that need them so electricity is lost every day. There are some very promising storage technologies which could address the issue but they are still years away. The GRID is currently being expanded to address the capacity issue for now and should be coming on-line ~2012. I've talked to several people who work in the Wind Generation department (disclaimer: I work for Nextera Energy Resources the largest generator of wind and solar power in North America) and asked about the storage issue and there doesn't seem to be a good cost effective solution just yet.
We have been "planning" to move to IE7 for 2 years. A few lucky souls have actually received it but it is still not compatible with some of our SAP modules so until they update the modules on IE6 we will stay.
But on February 25, 1809, Jefferson repudiated his earlier view, writing in a letter to Abbé Grégoire:
Sir,--I have received the favor of your letter of August 17th, and with it the volume you were so kind to send me on the "Literature of Negroes." Be assured that no person living wishes more sincerely than I do, to see a complete refutation of the doubts I have myself entertained and expressed on the grade of understanding allotted to them by nature, and to find that in this respect they are on a par with ourselves. My doubts were the result of personal observation on the limited sphere of my own State, where the opportunity for the development of their genius were not favorable and those of exercising it still less so. I expressed them therefore with great hesitation; but whatever be their degree of talent it is no measure of their rights. Because Sir Isaac Newton was superior to others in understanding, he was not therefore lord of the person or property of others. On this subject they are gaining daily in the opinions of nations, and hopeful advances are making toward their re-establishment on an equal footing with the other colors of the human family. I pray you therefore to accept my thanks for the many instances you have enabled me to observe of respectable intelligence in that race of men, which cannot fail to have effect in hastening the day of their relief; and to be assured of the sentiments of high and just esteem and consideration which I tender to yourself with all sincerity.[91]
I've had Playon for about a year and have been watching it's progress even longer. The problem likely isn't that they changed something so much as it is HULU probably did. HULU's overseers religiously defend against the ability to get their product from the small screen to the bigger screen and as such make subtle changes periodically that coincidentally happens to break playon's ability to work with HULU. What I like about the company is they work feverishly when these changes happen to get out a patch to fix HULU playback. If you are unhappy about something you can post it to their forum and they will usually respond quickly and if possible work to address your issue.
I use a PC with PlayOn to stream to my PS3, XBOX 360, Wii, and an XBOX with XBMC. It will actually stream to any device that is DLNA compliant. There is an active plugin group where you can request or submit plugins for different sites. Since I am seeing many of the newer Blu-Ray players come with DLNA baked in I would look for one of those if a gaming console isn't what you have or want.

Disclaimer: I don't work for IREX, I'm only an happy owner of an iLiad.
It's been a long day, I thought you said iLaid. I have a revolutionary new product idea.

Seriously?
You must be GNU here
Almost all of Microsoft's "innovation" has come through aquisitions and mergers.
Of course to look at a successful company and not learn the lesson of their success would be foolish...NO?
The government never reads the documents that cross their desk. They just see what their constiucorps want and vote yea or ney.

If you know what programming language a programmer uses you can tell if they know what they are doing or not.

What do you mean "resurrect"? AFAIK they never stopped using it.
Au contraire, mon frère
Microsoft is quite adept at Embrace, Extend, Extinguish. They're also quite good at marketing despite some obvious missteps over the years.
If they're such extremists what are they doing watching South Park?
If ever a story screamed for the "What Could Possibly Go Wrong" tag.

It's obvious they used monkeys to do it.
Wonder who will do their bidding next?
NOVELL
Did you?

Perhaps you should actually learn about our founding fathers views on slavery before you condemn them.

"It swaps between EVDO Rev. A, WiMAX and Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g on demand"
Does this apply to calls as well as data? If so it is even more awesome than I originally thought.

Perhaps I am misunderstanding the inquiry but it sound like you are asking about enterprise content management.
