Slashdot, how far you have fallen. On the heels of SourceForge, this story is a perfect example why more of us are seeking elsewhere for our tech news. Have the decency, if you have been paid by Dice for this post, to actually label it as such. A search for this report in the website of the Bureau of Labor Statistics reveals nothing that can be spun as in your story:

PLEASE have some integrity, and source/reference your stories.
Recently got a Sharp Aquos, which comes with an Ethernet port, and a bunch of widgets that does "stuff" (including getting weather etc.). I'm sure it would be trivial to create a widget for browsing and playing movie files from my home network - but either because Sharp does not use Linux, and/or they don't release the API - that is never likely to happen. The TV is good, but I should have asked questions like mrchaotica here.
