I have been a ski patroller at a small local area for 9 years now and I had the unfortunate privelidge of being on the mountain when a fellow ski patroller was killed in an avalanche during Avalache Control. What nobody knew at the time was that the patroller that was killed was buried in such a way that he had no air pocket and most likely died within the first 3 minutes of being buried. Yet, the rescue team put themselves into a position where they were attempting save someone in very hazardous avalanche conditions who was actually already dead. The rescue team actually set off more avalanches accidentally and partially buried members of the team.
Rescue attempts like this are always extremely dangerous for the people involved. If they had some way of knowing whether the person was alive it would be very valuable information when trying to make the decision whether or not to risk other people's lives in order to save a buried person.
When I read an article about the Imac's design I believe they attempted an all the stuff behind the LCD design. The problem according to the engineers were that hardware sitting on end like what appears gateway has done causes HD and other failures more quickly. Oh well!
If you have a decent motherboard they should have come up with BIOS updates to support the celerons, and the dechutes(333mhz PII and up). I've installed a celeron on a Tyan LX motherboard with no problems.

At our company we now have multiple college graduates working for under $10/hour. Of course we're in a small town. But yeesh!

I'd have to agree w/ you about playing console games on the couch. But, alas WINE is not an emulator, check the doc's on their page.
