less air is not a big deal. combustion can be kept up as long as enough oxygen is entering the engine and at those speeds, the volume of air coming in is sufficient to do so.
my point was that since we know that GR is not a theory of the universe, testing it is like testing Classical Mechanics.... it is an academic exercise, not scientific research.
we KNOW we are not in a GR universe. GR does not explain all phenomena in the universe so we conclude we are not in a GR universe, so testing GR is pointless. we know it is a good approximation, but testing it is about as useful as testing newtonian mechanics.
umm...well I can see some one does not know anything about the running theories....
M-Theory is a string theory that unifies all the other string theories by adding an eleventh dimension and the concept of branes where universes exist.
gravity is a fixed force in the 11th dimension, not the 5th dimension in M-Theory, and the strings that are vibrating are what makes M-Theory a string theory.
ah yes...another moron who does not know that AAC is a better encoder than MP3 so at 128, you actually get a much higher quality sound than you do at 192 in MP3.
yeah...not everyone wants it, but those others are in the vast minority, so they would make more money picking up the border sitters who are there just because they know that WMA will never go away because MS is a monopolistic jerk of a company.
but lets say you did not have a computer, or did not have a DVD drive.
the cost of a DVD drive plus a TV card, plus the pain of having to navigate through the OS to watch a DVD is infact MORE than buying a 50 dollar dvd player that is instant on and will play MP3s, WMAs, CDs, VCDs, SVCDs, and DVDs....most of what a DVD-ROM will get you plus the TV card.
I guess you missed the part where the DOJ sites the fact that this will be bad for the industry and the register says "heck yeah it will, now many OSS projects will have to pay royalties on the APIs that are published"
but you have to remember that... they all sucked until the mac came out... the mere fact that no one had seen a GUI before the mac shows you just how commercially successful the others were.
yeah... the amount of energy that will be needed to break a covalent bond will be immense... carbon especially has a strong molecular bond to itself at those scales.

it is a speed record for air breathing engines.
I implied no such thing.

if you are testing GR in the framework of GR, then you are not learning anything new.
actualy, NASA sends those into orbit and send other robots into the far reaches using newtonian mechanics.

GR is already known to not be a correct theory of the universe, so why bother testing it?
sure it approximates big stuff better than Newtonian laws do, but not right is not right.

he could license it JUST for the protecting of music files and not for use in any Music players.
umm.. under a patent is not the same thing as proprietary under copyright.
a patent purchase allows you to see the underlying parts, and even allows you to mess with the stuff (though it this case it really is not an issue)
a copyright purchase only gives you the ability to USE the technology with out seeing the parts.
they say "...their format, AAC."
not "the MP4 music format, AAC.
umm...you have a Keyboard and Mouse for the PS2 and Xbox, all you need is for games to support that interface.
person 1: Macs suck because they have no games!!! HA HA HA
PERSON 2: ummmm...the PC does not have any either....whats your point?
I am glad that you know your a weirdo :-)
30% above market value?
really? so who sells a cheaper small form factor HD based music player?
what is that? NO ONE!! holy crap!!!!

if Apple gains a 90 + percent in all portable music players, then apple will have to support all competing formats, or they will get a fat fine.

hmm, sounds unfortunat to me.
yeah...well I oubt that holds in terms of the Mac and the Star ;-)
but you have to remember that... they all sucked until the mac came out... the mere fact that no one had seen a GUI before the mac shows you just how commercially successful the others were.
duh.. programmers look at getting the job done, not done efficiently.
:-)
but electrical engineers suck at programming so we are even
