From Ubuntu's website. This was the first result from googling for ubuntu universe.
Canonical does not provide a guarantee of regular security updates for software found in universe but will provide these where they are made available by the community. Users should understand the risk inherent in using packages from the universe component.
Unlike Ubuntu, Debian does support anything in their repository. There was a security update for wordpress last month. They also do remove packages in which security support is impossible. It sounds like Debian might be a better choice for you.
whole object-functional thing seems like a paradigm in search of an audience
Ah, young grasshopper. You are not aware of the mixed paradigm programming languages then. See OCaml, that is object/function oriented lang.
I don't think you answered the GP's question. An example of the paradigm doesn't show that there is an audience. To answer the question would show that there is a class of (real-world) problems that an object-functional language solves better then anything else, or even better to give examples of businesses or major projects that are using an object-functional language. The Wikipedia page for OCaml doesn't give me much confidence that there is an audience for it.
I had several professors that encouraged the use of older editions, and would tell you to do problem 15 in the new edition or 14 in the old edition. I had several others that gave our their own homework problems, so the only reason a textbook was necessary was to learn the material.
It all depends on whether your university is more interested in teaching or in making money.
I just checked Verizon, Sprint, and AT&T's $60 mobile broadband plans, and all three specify a 5 gig limit right in plain sight. You don't even have to read the fine print or the legalese. This might have been a problem in the past, but for new customers it shouldn't be.
When I traveled to Germany, I saw the same thing, but it wasn't just US goods. I went to the Grocery Store, and everything pretty much had the 1 USD is 1 Euro factor.
I heard that most people my company relocates ends up leaving within 5 years. Anecdotally, the only person I know who was relocated left after 4 years.
Leveraged funds (like ProShares Ultra and UltraShort funds) are only designed to work over a single day. Holding a leveraged fund for a long period may have very bad consequences. For example, SLL (ProShares UltraShort Real Estate) was down 43% in 2008, when it should have been up 100%.
With the fastest key, a segway is limited to 12.5 mph. If you know you're going to be in a crowded area, you can use one of the other keys that limit you to 6 or 8mph. I've been in many crowded areas where other people have segways, and never seen a problem. The best part is that the natural reaction to something coming is to lean back, and that is exactly what makes the segway stop. Compare that to a bicycle or a skate board, where you have to push a lever or put your foot down, and I wouldn't be surprised if you could stop much faster then either of those.
I also believe that bikes, skates, and skateboards all have similar speeds to the segway.
The "crippling" was disclosed on the product page. Did you not read it before spending $500 on it?
From the Kindle DX Product Page
Kindle DX can read to you. With its Text-to-Speech feature, Kindle DX can read books, blogs, magazines, and newspapers out loud to you, unless the book's rights holder made the feature unavailable.
Do you really think Amazon would be that stupid? Once again, a sensationalist story is posted without proper fact checking.

Those losses have to be paid from somewhere. It's either paid by the consumer (hidden in the interest rates and fees), or by the merchants (in the transaction fees), or the credit card companies would go out of business. That was the GP's point.
I came to the same conclusion. I only drive around town. However, I also only drive 6-7000 miles a year, which means I don't use enough gas to offset the higher cost of a hybrid.
It was added after the last Ubuntu madwifi update, but before you started compiling from svn (and mentions that it fixes wpa_supplicant)
To test if that is the revision that fixed it, you can change script you are using to checkout that specific revision and the revision before it, and then verify the earlier one was broken and the later one fixed it.
So now instead of recompiling a module every time Ubuntu updates their kernel package, he would have to recompile the kernel, and keep the same module.
The windows version comes with in home warranty support, while the linux one is mail in, a $70 value. The linux one did have a intel 3945 wireless card which was not offered on the windows version, and probably makes the prices equal.
The Add/Remove Applications program (conveniently located at the bottom of the applications menu) shows 3 items, Abiword, OpenOffice.org Word Processor, and OpenOffice.org Office Suite.
Much easier then windows, in which you would have to google for word processor and get 6,420,000.

You may be able to use Google desktop to search your email, which is very convenient.
Funny, I've never gotten my palm to sync with GNU/Linux.

On my asus, when you decline the EULA, the computer turns off.

I know you want official drivers, but the unofficial HPLIP printer drivers are far better then the windows drivers, in my experience.

The Fedora Legacy Project supported Red Hat 7.3 and many other Red Hat versions (until the entire project shut down earlier this year)
It looks like this is probably the change that fixed it. http://madwifi.org/changeset/3525
It was added after the last Ubuntu madwifi update, but before you started compiling from svn (and mentions that it fixes wpa_supplicant)
To test if that is the revision that fixed it, you can change script you are using to checkout that specific revision and the revision before it, and then verify the earlier one was broken and the later one fixed it.
Change the following lines in the script:
WAS: /dev/null || exit
svn co http://svn.madwifi.org/madwifi/trunk madwifi >
IS: /dev/null || exit
svn co -r 3525 http://svn.madwifi.org/madwifi/trunk madwifi >
and
WAS: /dev/null || exit /dev/null || exit
svn up >
IS:
svn up -r 3525>
(change the -r 3525 to 3524 to check it before the patch)
You should consider filing an Ubuntu bug report, describing your problem in detail. You should also include the results of the tests above.

Any work that *BSD developers do to improve wireless support can be used in linux. The reverse is not true.
They are not running backup power because of the fire department told them not to, not because it doesn't exist.
Does the gmail mobile app support GMail for Domains yet? When I was researching it 6 months ago, that seemed to be the biggest complaint.

The bug was in a patch that Debian/Ubuntu applied to the upstream source. There is no problem upstream.
Both Debian and Ubuntu have released fixed packages.
