Something like this would be GREAT in a Photo management suite. As the demonstration was playing, I couldn't see myself using this on my desktop, but started falling in love with the idea of using it in to organise my documents -- especially all of my pictures.
But isn't this the essential problem? Apple emulated OS9 compatibility until people more fully adopted OSX. Shouldn't something similar occur in the Windows realm, allowing Windows to run efficiently without the burden of supporting outdated software and hardware?
"Let us ignore the fact that we all like gaming consoles and instead resort to childish puns to evaluate something before it's even released."
Yeah... cuz we can't possibly guess how effective the name of a system is until we have all actually played on it. We're not judging the book here, we're judging the cover.
"Photoshop is for photographers, and graphic artists."
Photoshop is an image manipulation tool, not a photograph management system. I think you're right: Aperture is a companion to Photoshop, and some features overlap a little, but they have enormously different general purposes.
"most certainly not with the UN, corrupt an organisation as that is."
The UN is a great organisation, but its not immune to human corruption. It is, however, established and worthy of trust. A few politicians whine about corruption (which is entirely hypocritical on its own) and suddenly demolishing the UN is the next grass roots fad...
"Its a tool and it can be used for good or bad purposes. The good almost always outweighs the bad."
I think that statement rephrased has a better meaning: The good always almost outweighs the bad. The NRA have some good points, afterall, and I'd rather keep my kitchen knives...
Well, it sounds to me like you paid for a 21 hour PVR, but only got a 20 hour PVR.
If 1 hour of HD space is 'reserved', and you can't record to it, why offer a delete feature? I can think of a good reason not to delete "Dossa and Joe"... if the reserved space is limited to an hour, and if you don't delete older shows, perhaps there won't be enough space for the next forced recording!
The entire ordeal at the cashier would be shortened to as long as it takes to scan your items. Walk up, scan eyeballs, be greeted by Cashier (except at IGA) walk out with items. No physical transaction. Just a scannin' of the ole' retinas.
Im not in favour of this system. I think you should still have to use some sort of PIN type auth..

For some reason, I think of The Onion with this new look...

Oo! You should take your Quattro, plug a Triple-head into each port, then a Triple-head into each of those!
Why is the man who went to St. Yves coming to mind?
Hey - if Uranus jokes are good enough for Dilbert , they're good enough for you!
You shouldn't put any gas in a porche, really, but while we're on the topic, how many miles do you get off regular patio furniture?
... even if they succeed completely with this project, they're all still just a bunch of wannabe's.

See? He's lying already! BURN HIM!!!
Why do naming schemes suck, anymore??
X1000? I thought the "X" in "X800" was there because those video cards were the generation after "9800" and "9700"... Whats next, OSX11?
Intel, AMD, ATI, nVidia... Mazda... they're all driving me nuts with their product naming schemes, lately...

Stop swearing so much.

How did he get a viola from those 10,000 usernames?

What about a walletless, cashless society.
