Just like I don't have to prove that the "moon landings" are a hoax - infact that there is no moon at all? Or is it only you who can decide which theory doesn't need proof?
Esp. when the whole point of carjacking is to separate car and driver. And wouldn't taking a hostage with you be kidnapping and get the FBI involved (in the USA)?
My dad got the Melissa virus faxed to him at work via a Email2Fax gateway. Over ten pages of VBScript printed out. He also got the first Nigerian Scam I saw via fax.
This may surprise you, but Google also takes the actual content of the page into account. OurSearch:Google Technology:
So, Google combines PageRank with
sophisticated text-matching techniques to find pages that are both important and relevant to your search. Google goes far beyond the number of times a term appears on a page and examines all aspects of the page's content (and the content of the pages linking to it) to determine if it's a good match for your query.
Zuse however build his computer about 10 years before von Neumann (and a buch of uncredited) published their theory how a computer should be like. And he didn't implement the shared instruction/data memory simply because it would have been to big, he did however plan to do so in later machines.
To quote (ans translate) the Heise News article on Johnny's birthday: "Whether Janos or Jancsi, Johann or Johannes, John oder Johnny [...] born as Johann Ludwig Neumann von Margitta." So you are all wrong, it's the von Margitta architecture;-)
Of course, it is still fairly sad that these 'high speed trains' go no faster in most circumatances than the famous Mallard A4 Pacific Class Locomotive, built in the 1930s.
But then, they don't take a long declining straight to do so, and don't brealk down after reaching that speed. Most of the time.
[...] In the January 1939 issue of Amazing Stories, Eando Binder portrayed a sympathetic robot in I, Robot. [...] Dimly, I began to feel that I wanted to write a story in which a robot would be portrayed lovingly. And on May 10, 1939, I began such a story. The job took me two weeks, for in those days it took me quite a while to write a story. I called it Robbie, and it was about a robot nursemaid, who was loved by the child it cared for and feared by the child's mother. [...] On June 8, 1950, the collection was handed to Gnome Press, and the title I gave it was Mind and Iron. The publisher shook his head. 'Let's call it I, robot', he said. 'We can't', I said. 'Eando Binder wrote a short story with that title ten years ago.' 'Who cares?' said the publisher (though that is a bowdlerized version of what he really said), and I allowed myself, rather uneasily, to be persuaded."
I don't know whether Asimov thought about it, but no company could make the new slave race (robots) look like Afro-Americans today (or in the near future). That's probably why they did in the movie.
The problem is (and certainly was > 2 years ago, when the iPod design process started): there isn't one that even remotely fits into the iPod concept. About the only thing Apple could have done was to design their own pack. And they would have been bashed for that too, so why bother.

Bozo, you forgot Redundant.
Very few iBooks fail after 11 months, but don't let that get in your way.
And there was a huge drop after Apple reported the losses in Q3 (financial) of 2000.

any drug smuggling gadgets?

Well, if someone begins to scat, you may pick it up - only if you're good at it, of course. Like when you're Ella.
BTW, Zuse's Z3 is therefore, at least in principle, as universal as today's computers which have a bounded addressing space..

Neither for Mac. Bryce isn't even optimized for G4. And all PC users loved After Effects when Charlie White did his tests.

Hey, you'ld be better off with him than with Dubya.
Yeah, and its also fucking larger than the iPod.
when it's leaked on Apple's web pages.
Actually, that sounds a lot like I, Robot not by Asimov, but Eando Binder, as seen on Outer Limits (well, it got the OL treatment). BTW that story is older than Asimov's collection of stories.
That's why Apple eUrope is based there.
Yeah, Sicily is invoicing.
