Silly, it's called creating an artificial shortage to beef up demand. It happens all the time, and no the XBox isn't doing anywhere nearly as well as MS had hoped.
Don't worry. In an attempt to completely turn the tables, people are now pushing for forms of 'hatred' such as 'homophobia' to be classed as a mental illness and put into that little book.
Intelligent design isn't science, therefore it doesn't belong in a science room.
By that logic, neither is evolution.
This is as much as case of religious oppression as was banning discussion that the earth might be round, or the existence of microscopic life forms in the dark ages.
Because when you can see them you guarantee they get the money.
Probably not the best charity system, but a darn sight better than most others. Maybe it is self-gratifying to get a 'thank you' from the recipient but that's hardly selfish.
How are you going to track down mr traffic light maintainer, through the utility company? Yes, just leave the $100 bill at the front desk and they'll take care of it for you.
Also, many men for some reason are scared that another man is going to fuck them when they are not looking. This is something I simply do not understand, but homophobia is a pretty common psychological problem for men. Its at least common enough that my spell checker didn't question it.
Actually that's just a fallacy perpetuated by homosexual lobby groups to:
Convince other men that by having such fear they are in fact partly homosexual, thus to some degree justifying their own lifestyle.
Promote invented terms such as homophobia (irrational fear), to exacerbate their persecution complex.
Infact, Bill Gates, who had a lot to do with the success of the modern PC revolution has helped hundreds of millions of people get jobs that made them trillions of dollars.
No, the revolution was already well underway with or without his junk. He just jumped on the bandwagon and had the business know-how to push everyone else off.
Hey it's great that 60% of his money is going to help the poor, but it's not exactly clean money. And it's not exactly going where it's needed either, but that's another issue.
The The announcement was also heavy on the Java side, with both Red Hat and Novell pledging a 'reinforced commitment' to the Java developer community and J2EE."
So does this mean we might be seeing a working Java implentation soon that isn't controlled by Sun?
While a lot of KDE applications are better than their GNOME counterparts there is of course absolutely nothing stopping you from running any of the above (except the "Mark Shuttleworth" application perhaps) from within GNOME.
A problem many KDE media apps had until recently was their dependency on the horrible ARTS sound server. I notice kaffeine no longer has this requirement so that's definitely a step in the right direction.

Will I finally be able to model my new house with this version?
I was sad to see the BlenderCAD project die a slow death, as it addressed a lot of the CAD issues that Blender 2.3 was missing.
I'd still like to see persistent units, measurements and materials BOM.
Well since the US hasn't declared war since 1942, I'd say that they have pretty much stopped.
It's much more convenient to have conflicts instead, since you don't have to abide by all those pesky international rules.
I literally got a knot in my stomach when I read "...America Online, whose talks with Google prompted the change in policy..."
Literally, huh?
Well I hope you got surgery for that quickly. It can lead to organ necrosis in a matter of minutes, you know.
Oh, you mean because they have more dollars than sense?
I swear that sounded funnier than it looks in writing.

I put on my robe and wizard hat.
The other two companies are way ahead in hype, which is what really matters (for paying journalists salaries anyway)!
Plus, you know, actual console sales.

But you repeat yourself.
Heh, I was waiting for that one
Of course Microsoft wants to appear as the Knight in Shining Armour who saved us from the Evil Sony.
Who has just invested millions in the launch of a games console, and who is the current leader in that arena?

Sony can fix this for good:
