OK, we all know that processor power consumption isn't everything. But let's keep the general idea of reduced power. Does it still mean longer battery life?
I mean, it seems to be the case with laptops that whenever they invent a better battery technology, they use up all that power for the latest Hexium XIV+++ @ 1.6 helluvahertz and the largest possible backlit TFT display (which, btw, is starting to give a retro feeling of those lovely luggables).
So they might just cut down battery sizes and use the power reduction only to market it as lighter and smaller. OK for some people that might just be what they want but/dev/me wants a fscking computer not a hey-look-my-pute-is-smaller-than-yours-oh-ignore-t he-fact-that-the-battery-dies-so-quickly. Damn.
Because that would be pronounced 'lie-nux' instead of the correct 'lee-nux'. If you got a problem with this, go check for example ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/SillySounds/ for personal advice from Linus the Great. This is in fact the pronunciation because in Finland the name Linus is pronounced 'leenus'.
Researchers Find Big Risk of Defect in Cloning UNIX
Before Linux's debut in 1991, scientists thought UNIX could not be cloned.
"With cloning a UNIX, you are asking a kernel to recompile in minutes or, at most, in hours," said Dr. Echalan, a professor of CS at the Whitbread Institute at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. "That's where the major problem is."
Some scientists say they shudder to think what might happen if Windows(TM) is cloned with today's techniques. While arguments over the ethics of cloning Windows have dominated the debate, these scientists say the real issue is the likelihood that clones would have source abnormalities that could result in stable and reliable operation. Until that problem is solved, they say, cloning Windows should be out of the question.

Rather appropriately to the story - just as I was writing this, a big spider landed on my shoulder. As if I wasn't deep enough on the web already.

It has something to do with the verb `pursuade'.

Where the fsck did you get a copy? All I can see on opera.com is a beta 7, though that seems to work fine.

a = b
a^2 = ab
a^2 - b^2 = ab - b^2
(a - b)(a + b) = (a - b)b
a + b = b
2b = b
