Yep, If you need to invade Greneda, an AC is the perfect answer;-)
I should point out that speed in water is proportional to length at waterline so you might want to put your drones on a very big ship (eg airgraft carrier)
My mother, now aged 85, learned to type using a printed picture of a keyboard, and exercises very similar to "Mavis Beacon Teaches Typing". Its true there is no record of what keys you actually press, etc, but she could type a lot faster than I ever could, and is using an IPad as I type this.
My point is: stop being obsessed with technology: anyone in the third world can have a photocopy of a picture of a keyboad, and probably has the motivation to try and learn with it. Once a week, use a real machine to test their progress if you have to. (Yes I have visited third world countries).
Since most of the world thinks I am somewhere in the Midlands or North of England on the basis of my IP, but I am in London, I suspect that the geolocation returns the address of one of your (ISP's) data centres, making the data worthless.
What MS needs is to get a time machine and go back and unscrew all the Wince5, Wince6 and Winphone 7 users they screwed by not offering upgrades! (Making a few pigs fly could help too)
You are so wrong. Some people really need a scape goat for lost data, unanswered calls, inability to perform simple tasks and general bungling ineptitude. WinPhone meets that need perfectly!
Since you dont know what to think, I will tell you. This is clearly an infingement, but probably not in the way the summary says. (I can read Dutch, but do not understand what I have read:-)
The link is NOT the infringement. The infringement lies in the description explaining what the link is. The person who put that description there aided and abetted the infringement, which was committed by the person that uploaded it to the file sharing site. The site host is not guilty unless perhaps of incitement by actively encouraging this kind of posting (if they did so).
The LINK ITSELF is not an infringement. If you carry a stolen phone in a brown paper bag, then the brown paper bag (and its supplier) are not guilty. If you do not know the contents are stolen, and have no reason to suspect it might be then you are innocent. The person that told you the brown paper bag contained a bar of chocolate for his sick mother is very guilty indeed. However, if you advertise "I deliver stolen mobile phones in brown paper bags"! expect a guilty verdict.
And the devices CM runs on were all shipped with GAPPS preinstalled, so the owner presumably has licence to GAPPS. Its just like you backed up your GAPPS before upgrading to CM. (Which, AFAICR you did have to do in the early days.
Disclaimer: Yes I do have CM on my HTC Desire. I do ahve GAPPS, and I have never used Google music, and nor am I likely to do so in the immediate future. (Maybe things will change when I have finished ripping my LPs to AAC)
Without going to Staples, I cant buy loads of office equipment available in Staples.
I can, however, go across the mall to any other competitor and buy the exact same stuff.
In other words: If the app developers put their apps on Alibaba, then users of this new OS can buy them. Since Alibaba is already a bigger market than EBay and Amazon put together, there is a good chance some developers will do this. If Google does not want some people buying from their shop, then that is up to them, but it is hardly good business practice.
Dammed right. Its a round the world trip. On a boat that small, anything electric will be dead once you are 1,000 miles from home. If its not made from Mahogany and Brass, it will probably be ground to dust before you even reach the middle of the ocean.
There is no way Windows is operational within an hour of installing - a couple of days of installing, updating and rebooting are required unless you have a custom image to use. Even if its pre-installed (eg new laptop) it will take many hours to create the recovery disks, - which you need to do before anything else. And it will take a ton of money to replace the pre-installed boatware with the real versions of Office and what ever anti-virus scam you have been lumbered with.
Ubuntu is productive within 40 minutes of deciding to install, if you have a CD to hand, even on a six year old laptop (provided you avoid Unity).
As for drivers - a new Windows machine probably comes with drivers (which you can preserve by creating the recovery disks), but with older machines, in all probability, the network drivers won't be there, and without them, you can't access the Internet to download them!
There is just no way Windows is ready for the average user - unless he is completely unconcerned about stability and security.
Oh, wait...
You may be able to use Unity. I have yet to find anyone else that can. I have installed it for about 12 users now, and none of them was able to use it for more than 10 minutes*.
All are perfectly happy with Gnome-shell (I am not, but that is different story).
*The essential problem is that hierarchical text menu structures work. Unrecognisable icons are completely unintelligeable and non-intuitive. Things like the Ubuntu Software Centre take huge amounts of screen space - making it very difficult to find anything - worse (horrifically worse) this particular evil beast has masses of animated crap at the top, needlessly eating your bandwidth and processing power.

Possibly not, but you may get shit from them when they "look under the covers" and find what lurks in DOCX files!

Perhaps, but, on the basis of 20 years of experience, it is almost certainly broken in some fashion.

Conservative MPs have a long record of perverted activities! - Perhaps we need to ban conservative MPs!
Its a new porn genre - grammar molesting. Quick - enjoy it before its banned!
I think I need it. I have thought that since 1989, Unfortunately, I remain convinced I cant afford it.
I think you just answered your own question!
However, for those of us that live in the UK, there was no chance whatever of getting the funding to actually make one.
