... in new Hollywood movies when the main character can pop up 500 windows at a time and keep an eye on all of them ('cos he is THE h@x0r and can break through 640bit encryption faster than anyone else by typing commands like "[decrypt password]" really quickly).
It's almost as dumb as the "futuristic computers" with see-through screens (Deus Ex?).
HDTV has been out since the 80's right? I heard there are two implementations - digital and analogue. Is this true? And speaking of digital television, is HDTV the "new" standard for digital terrestrial broadcasting? Or are there millions of competing standards?
If HDTV is not the new standard, then I wonder where the card maker is going to make the money from. No one I know has HDTV, and only one channel I know of broadcasts in HDTV (and that's the Japanese satellite broadcaster BS1).
Taking the numbers a little further...
The top 100 queries makes up a whopping 7.57% of all Gnutella searches. Including just the "adult" search terms means the grand total amounts to 2.34% (I simply went through deleting non suggestive terms such as "stays crunchy even" and "ST:Voyager"). Now this took me all of 2 minutes to work out (including a reboot as Excel crashed my system). Although you can lie whichever way you want with the numbers (coming up with such unsubstantiated comments as: "One in fourty Gnutella user is searching for adult material" Gasp! Peer to Peer services are truly Satan's Spawn!), I do wander why they didn't bother doing this to "prove" their assertion that peer to peer is inherently evil. After all, more numbers means more accuracy, right?

I'll shut up now.
