This was modded down most likely because if the bad attitude.
But it brings up an interesting thought I think. Would the space program advance further if the space-going countries worked together, or would competition drive each respective company to reach farther, faster.
If you look at the Cold War, we went from failed rocket launchers to man on the moon relatively quickly (That is, if you choose to believe the man on the moon thing really happened).
The Combo drive burns CDs at 24x and rewrites at 10x. If you're reffering to the DVD burner, which is 2x, keep in mind we're talking about $1600 laptop.
Do 9lb PC laptops have faster DVD burners usually? Do they have DVD burners at all?
Interestingly, there is no language in this law governing what the notification has to say, and whether or not it has to be easily understood by the customer.

Spiderman sounds way cooler than Geckoman though. I mean, what's Geckoman going to use instead of a web-shooter, his super long tongue shooter? Who would make a comic book character that does such a silly thing. Oh...wait...
I personally think it's a disgusting tactic, but many business do some pretty terrible things to increase profits. Look at clothing companies and Asian sweatshops, or gasoline manufacturers putting MTBE in their product, even though it causes serious water pollution.
It's nice when stories like this get out into the open, because it shines a negative light on the companies that try to pull this kind of stuff.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't the Rosetta project involve orbiting a satelite around the comet, and not harpooning a comet with a landbased object?
Now that I think about it, how do you "harpoon" an asteroid anyways. Are we going to use a thick rope and a spear? Or is Moby Dicking it the wrong way to go?
I wouldn't have my own daughter parade around like that.
I say this of course, because she has a spare tire.::drum roll::
Really though, Madster must be low on funds, because you can hire perfect 10's with much lower morals to do this stuff. I mean, look at the Linux Girl. Yum.
This is also a part of 600 grade of Mercedes-Benz's with 6L V12's.
The difference between this and the Northstar system is that the engine uses 6 cylinders when driving lightly, and all 12 when pressing down on the accelrator a little harder.

Hmm, looks like SOMEONES sexually attracted to the blob.
Who needs machinery when you can just choke your chicken?
Now, you could argue that even the study that Microsoft is pushing...
Although proponents of these laws may dream that Microsoft is going to open up their source...
If the government uses Office and the Office data format is made public...
Either Microsoft and other vendors are going to have to completely change their business model...
Microsoft will undoubtedly still lobby against open data format laws, but its arguments will be weakened significantly...
It doesn't have to get into reasons why open source laws would be bad for Microsoft personally...
Are there any companies you think these laws will effect? Oh wait....

Slow burner?

Who says Linux is dead?
Most of the AC's on here who have nothing better to do than troll about.
Once this project really starts to evolve it might become Xapien?
I don't know German, but I have a feeling this word just may have a double meaning.
Common German phrases using "Ihre" use it as "your".
But I ran the Fish on "Ihre Ihre Ihre Ihre", and it returned "There There There There".
Who knows...
To clarify for all you, I wrote this text:
Your Social Security Number was stolen by a hacker. He also stole your identity. Have a nice day.
I'd say the Fish did a suprisingly good job with this, given it's history being useless as a tool for me to cheat with in Spanish class.
Tack on a CDR, and you've just made yourself a laptop with a tiny screen.
Although, Steve Jobs is justifiably wary about PDAs with the failure of the Newton, which I still think is an awesome device.

Regardless of how you feel about Seti@Home's mission, whether or not it's worthwhile, I think 24 hours is quite a bit short.
I really should clarify.

MercExchange, which said it will file an injunction against eBay to keep them from using the fixed price technology MercExchange had patented in 1995.
Does this mean MercExchange patented By It Now?
If I'm reading this properly, then it just seems that Merc wants to:
1. Obtain all legal rights to online auctioning methods
2. Sell to large Fortune 500 company
3. Profit.
Which makes sense to me. It may be a slimy tactic, but that's business.
got one of these guys to believe my name was Hugh G. Reckshun, as can be seen in this lovely "legal document" he prepared for me.
Thanks Mr. Savimbi!

Hitler killing 6 million Jews and 4 million non-Jews is a "crime against humanity".
I would say this is more like withholding culture from the masses.
it turns out these problems with the drives were occuring because the S.M.A.R.T. technology turned out to be S.T.U.P.I.D.
Corporations covering up stuff like this?
I guess this gives new meaning to the cliche "How low can they be?"
