Qbertino, I wish you the very best of luck with your GmbH... lived in Frankfurt and Munich for years in the 1990s, and investigated this possibility myself. I was seriously put off by the red tape and capital required to fund the "Ltd." aspect of the business, so I instead registered my venture in Ireland (I'm from there), where the costs and capital were in the mere hundreds of euro.
I think I used one of those during a student exchange with Bubry, Brittany and Macroom, Ireland. We had one Apple II in our Irish secondary school, I remember being blown away at how well-funded French "lycees" were...
Sinclair ZX81 here, in 1982. B&W text output, no sound, 1K RAM, Z80, membrane keyboard... I win! It cost (IIRC) fifty-something Irish pounds (about $100) back then... it turned me from a delinquent into a nerd. Loved that thing.
Jesus man, that's high. I paid $1,800 on a property valued at $165,000 here in Maryland Heights, MO (western St. Louis county), and that's jumped dramatically since I bought the place (was $1,250 in 2002).
Clearly the editor has never heard of Northern Ireland, or Rangers vs. Celtic, etc. Generally secular, I suppose, with pockets of rampant sectarianism.
I can't help but agree. I'm Irish, and as a result have plenty of exposure to our nearest neighbours... always found the average British person to be rational and tolerant, not the types to fall for this nonsense at all.
Effectively, people are 'sent' to Brussels by their own national governments, to be commissioners. That isn't going to happen without the support of the current national government. Poor choice of words, perhaps.
The dentist affair was only one of many. I detect a certain sensitivity in your response... and regarding your mention of GWB; I'm not American, I'm Irish. So the GWB example means little to me. I don't debate for a second that he is a dangerous idiot.
Let's see... not very popular in France when she left office, sent to Brussels, appointed her dentist and other cronies as advisers in areas in which they weren't qualified...

Thank you! As an Irishman this has always bugged me... Patty to me means Patricia, not Patrick.
Are you a Safari user, Jugolator? I have the same result on Mac OS X 10.4.5 using Safari 2.0.3.
Added both "cromulent" and "crapulent" here. But then again, I am Irish.
You wouldn't be an employee of Monsanto on Olive Blvd., would you? I think I might be the guy you're talking about... sorry man!
You are my hero. Sick to death of GUI jockeys who couldn't code with a simple text editor if their lives depended on it.
Awwww, is poor diddums upset? Poor baby, resorting to invective... sure sign of a limited intellect.
Certainly enough to warrant a comment from you.

Good luck with the interview, Avatar8!!!
Because we all know that those damned "furriners" don't have anything better than dialup, right? :-)
A new low. This is the dumbest question I've seen posted to Slashdot yet. I can't believe this shit made it into an article.

A bit like the Christian Crusades, right?
It's 'proselytize'.

This sentence does not make sense. Did you think before you hit save?
It would probably have been rejected in Ireland too, had it made it to a referendum.
Well said. That is exactly the problem.

D: Edith Cresson. E: Chuckles McCreevy...
Could go on all day!
