Good God, who the hell modded that up as interesting? Everyone knows that I was joking. You couldn't really expect anyone to use a joypad to write a computer program* You'd use a virtual keyboard.
I don't know what's happening with Firefox and Ubuntu, but I do know that if it does get replaced with IceWeasel, I'll either
1. Download it from some 3rd party website 2. Download the source, compile it, package it up and host it on my website
And to be honest I'd encourage everyone else to do the same. I'm really not trying to troll, I just don't want to one day find a vulnerability or incompatibility in IceWeasel that's not in Firefox.
Why does this always happen on a Thursday? I'd recommend putting some cream on that, it should disappear by tomorrow, just in time for Ashley's party too (Jordan will be there, he's well yummy). Don't squeeze it though, that'll leave a scar.
"Ultimately, we are trying to avoid the day when the consuming public asks, 'Why would Hormel Foods name its product after junk e-mail?'"
These would be the same people that will ask why makers of glass-that-fits-into-buildings-to-allow-people-to- see-into-other-areas chose to name their product after Microsoft's Operating System?
Everyone knows that You Tube has loads of copyrighted material that shouldn't be there. With this in mind, why would Google buy it and risk having their ass sued off? I wouldn't have bought it if I'd had the money for this one reason, but for some reason Google have done. Maybe they'll just remove all the copyrighted material or just charge a subscription for it?
Basically all it boils down to is that You Tube is the biggest video site on the net which Google now control and Microsoft are just pissed because they've just lost out on the biggest multimedia opportunity of this decade.
All Google have to say is they'll take anything down when the copyright holder (and only the copyright holder) complains. eBay has this policy similar to this, but still kick up a fuss when they're asked to take stuff down (Live 8 tickets last year for example).

In the UK there are quite a few places you can buy iTunes Gift Cards / Vouchers (Tesco, Sainsbury, Argos). Coca-Cola are doing a promotion at the moment where you get a free download from iTunes with each bottle bought. Of course this is limited to 3 per household and you also need to like Coca-Cola*
You also need to have an iPod and iTunes.
*This isn't strictly true as you could buy the bottle for the voucher and give away the drink, or not drink it at all
If the employees are only doing basic things like writing Office Documents, then the chances are they'll have a stock Dell desktop computer. In the UK they can sell for under £400 (it might even be £300). These machines have integrated audio and video and probably use either Pentium III or Celeron processors with 512MB RAM. If a company wanted to upgrade all its machines to Vista they'd first need to buy computers that support the minimum requirements, unless Vista support machines with integrated audio and video. How much does a computer cost that meets the minimum hardware requirements?

And a light gun.
*That said, Net Yaroze did
Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong but:
Are they mad? How the hell are you going to be able to send an email or write a program using the joypad? That'll take ages! Madness, sheer madness...
I don't get it... Can someone explain?
I'll have a go.
The Sirius is on the internet, or they have a website at least which is on the internet (yeah, that'll do)
Nerds use the internet
This is news article about something on the internet
So this is News for Nerds... I did it!!!
That's Numberwang.
Do not go to the dark side.
Which side would that be?

Get a grip, Hormel.
would make sneakily watching porn a lot more worthwhile.
What a brilliant name. It rolls off the tounge nicely.
If was of a really high spec you could call it a tip-top wind-up laptop.
it'll also put the OK and Cancel buttons the right way around.
Am I wrong or am I right?
(Yes, I know this is a setup)
Is there a video of the interview anywhere?

Can you imagine it? You could make food that no one else can eat without being violently sick.
That'd stop people from pinching my French Fries!
I don't see any reason why video.google can't merge with youtube and fix youtubes problems.
Or simply just redirect everyone that clicks on Google Video to You Tube. That's what I'd do, but then again I'm lazy. Bite me.

they were probably trying to download them...

Is there a button to switch it from 'water' to 'beer?'
I called Jesus, he said that he can do water into wine... will that do?
As soon as my new search engine, Centillion, opens, Google won't see me for dust.
Nobody will be able to beat me, nobody!!!!!!
(Evil laugh)
Your argument's silly.
Vista will cost me nothing though because I don't own a computer.
Most of the hardware costs would be there anyway as part of a normal IT refresh cycle.
I somehow doubt they'd upgrade Jenny in HR to a Vista ready machine when she can do her job with a 512MB Celeron, do you?

Too many jokes...
Head explodes
As someone from the U.S., just navigating their website sucks.
Well, they must be doing something right as plenty of people have no problems having food delivered to their homes.
UK only gag coming up:
Every little helps
Can't wait for homebrew\open source firmware for the Zune.
Rockbox then?
