I think their "inspiration" came from RealPlayer changing its name to RealOne. Hell, look at the front page of their site and you see the RealOne player on the screen of the Palm.
But honestly... WTF was wrong with the name "Palm"?
If it ain't broke, DON'T FIX IT.
It doesn't make sense.... I hate the business world.
It's not always "out in the open" funny. Part of the comedy of the show is knowing the charcaters' attitudes and reactions to things.
One of the funniest moments of the show was when Buckley broke up with Luanne. Hank was tired of listening to her, and gave her the advice that "sometimes it's just better to bottle up your emotions instead of letting them out".
The networks probably have at least one mathematician each guaranteeing them that it makes good business sense to poll people a certain way, and cut certain series. And that's pretty much all we can expect, unless they're really incompetent.
Don't you mean a mathemagician, pulling numbers out of their ass? So many of those guys are full of bullshit...

Save me Jebus!
Fear the RED (communist) PLANET!

I dunno... but I heard they're EXTREME TO THE MAX!!!

Just put an RFID tag on all terrorists. That way when they try to board a plane, you can detect them!
Or maybe not...
Yes, but can someone translate and write "Kiss My Ass" in Elvish?
I'd like to see that...
Yes, anti-piracy commercials starring starving actors... with the actors who make $20 Million per flick conveniently hidden behind a curtain.
Total hypocrisy...
Why do I need picture messaging when text messaging (SMS) works just as well at a fraction of the cost?
Why do I need television when radio works just as well at a fraction of the cost?
Why do I want a phone when a telegraph works just as well at a fraction of the cost?
Yes, things are expensive and buggy when they first hit the scene, but give them a few years and they will go down in cost and go up in reliability.
Personally, I think a video cellphone would be wonderful. Cellular is the perfect platform to introduce it to, since POTS tech is kinda at its limits.
PICTURES of Nimitzes!!!
I hate it when people refer to "pictures" as "screenshots". A SCREENSHOT is an image capture of a COMPUTER DISPLAY (desktop, game, whatever.)
Oh no, other people happen to like using programs you don't like!
It's a PUBLIC computer. If you want a pristine environment, bring a laptop.
It's like if you don't like using public washrooms: hold it in till you get home.
Well, I don't know about the oxygen thing, but it seems they'd be a perfect companion for Slashdotters.
Where else is Canada going to revolve around?
:p
The people in Vancouver are too high to care, and the Americans hate the french, which puts Montreal outta the question
Edmonton? Halifax? The Peg? Hahaha...
1) QBASIC? That's so 1992...
2) You bought a DUMMIES book for QBASIC. It's like buying a Dummies book for cooking Kraft Macaroni.
For years and years and years "TO" (t-o) has been Toronto's nickname, so quite often you'll see some business around here use Tonga's .to TLD.
I'd say we beat LA to the punch.
Nokia's headphones use their new PopPortâ connector.
It's really annoying, since their headphones cost C$40.
I guess YOU have never gotten a paper cut. Those things hurt like a bastard!
Enterprise may be letterboxed/standard def now, but I imagine they've got HD tapes of it ready for when UPN's stations switch over to HD.
Second, because we have bad experiences with Microsoft. Microsoft is closed. Proprietary. Restrictive. Opressive. User hostil. Unreliable.
If humans like freedom, then why is Microsoft so popular? I think humans, in general, prefer convenience over freedom.
Honestly, picture Steve Jobs in his usual black turtleneck, plus a monocle, shaking his fist!
"Panza vill roll over ze enemy, and crush it!"
...and with this stupid weather we've been having, I don't see the ground outside being THAWED until May.
I'm hoping for a German-like "Panzer". That would just be perfect.
Honestly, Bun-Bun could kick that rabbit's ASS.
There is no comparison.

If I'm not mistaken, doesn't SCSI stand for "small computer serial interface"?
