A Quad Xeon with 8 Gig of Ram is hardly commodity hardware. Please...
A Dual Xeon with 4 gig of Ram is vastly less. Two of these is much less than the one machine with 4 CPUS and 8G Ram... The point is, your hardware is not commodity.
Yes. I've been through 4 keyboards on my Dell while it was under warrantee. I asked the tech what the freak was up and the answer given was:
The keyboard is fine. It's the controller. Which is also fine, it just works loose because the laptop flexes so much. This way you'll lose a row of keys at a time, but the hardware is still all perfect. Of course we have to take it back to Dell and replace it for you.
So... pull the cover off. Unplug the keyboard and replug it. Chances are it'll work like new.
But do they have a web services interface? That's the important part.

I guess you probably leave your background as the default blue of (insert OS here) too. And don't change the colours of the title bars and so forth. So the default for you is fine.
On the other hand, many 'power users' like to personalise their desktop. My background has purple penguins in ear muffs and my colours reflect this purple rather than the default blue.
If it was possible to change the colours easily in applications as well as the window manager, then I'd do so as well. Only those apps which allow for skinning, due to the over enthusiasm for graphics everywhere, allow changing the colours at all.
If skinning is bad, then why allow us to 'skin' our desktop by changing the background?

As per the wired article, I agree with the defendant that Visa just wants the eVisa.com domain name.
Visa has no more right to the dictionary word 'visa' than Apple has on the fruit. Especially when the word is used in its -correct- context.
