  1. Re:slogan on RadioShack CEO Resigns · · Score: 1

    No it's
    "You have questions... Hey! we've got something it common!"

  2. Re:Killing Machines on War: What Can Technology Do For Us? · · Score: 1

    Overpopulation is a myth

  3. Why doesn't someone in the community write this? on File Extensions And Monopolies · · Score: 1

    It would probably take one of Microsoft's developers a short afternoon to build a simple, forthrightly labeled control panel that sits right on every user's desktop and asks, in plain English, "Which program would you like to open Web pages? Or text files? Or MP3 audio files? Or photo files?" Then, instead of Microsoft making choices for users to promote its new businesses, users could decide for themselves "where they want to go today."

    It seems to me if this is so simple why not make it simpler? Just make a freeware app for those computer users that can't handle right clicking?

  4. Re:Why not Minix? on HP Ditching WindowsCE for Linux on Jornada? · · Score: 1

    I think that the benefit of using a OpSys other then WinCE is size and speed. The few WinCE devices that I have played with required massive amounts of memory and power to handle the overhead of the operating system. Either Palm OS, a stripped down Linux, or even Minix could be the ticket. I see value in switching to either of them as long as they are truly devoted to being a handheld OpSys.

  5. Not like you'd think on Silicon Buckyballs = Quantum Bits? · · Score: 3

    In quantium computing radio waves are used to affect and read the qubits. Something like a MRI machine. The "value" of the qubit is determined by the inference pattern created by the qubits when they are zapped with radio waves.
