Right, because of course, everything that happens on Mars must be directly parallel to what happens on Earth. So if the ice caps on Mars are shrinking, then it MUST mean that the ice caps on the Earth are shrinking for the same reason.
Well smart guy, if the sun increased it's solar output, then yes the effects would be reflected on both planets.
Why doesn't Google partner with Sun to release the product in the retail and OEM markets?
This is more of a move for the corporate enterprise enviroment. They'll sell Google/Sun SO appliances just like Google corportate search. Browser integration, Google's name, Sun hardware, cost advante = serious threat to MS Office.
The states are basically fucked because they've made pension and other benefit promises that they won't be able to keep once the babyboomers start retiring in bulk. Expect more of these schemes in the coming years as the bills come due.
This mission is never going to happen. The national debt keeps mounting and at some point the IOUs will need to be paid. By 2015 the bulk of the baby boomers begin to retire and there won't be enough funds to pay that expense (not to mention all the government pensions and PIGC pensions that will need to be paid).
But seriously, people should just live with what they've got. We all eventually get old; we all eventually pass on. Wear what you've got with a smile and you'll do just fine.
Yes, those are nice platitudes but being physically repulsive in our "style vs substance" economy can be limiting to one's career. Sales, management, consulting... anything that requires "face time" with a customer will automatically put you at a disadvantage with your attractive coworkers.
... and even if you are providing a 100% greater service than anyone else on-site, that same client will still the snide comments about your appearance behind your back and then go invite your coworkers for happy hour while you toil away to make a deadline.

I don't remember having to reboot as much with other platforms ... I guess that's sort of an innovation

Anybody else depressed that people make a lot of money doing stupid things?
This is the sort of "fictional wealth" created in economies with fiat based currencies.

Dobson didn't invent anything! Alt-Az mounts have been around for hundreds of years! At least say you have a 8" NEWTONIAN on a Dobsonian mount!
But for some reason, could it be greed?!

Does anyone know if there was any pressure from the oil/petrol interests, overt or otherwise, to prevent this project from going forward?

I doubt it at this point. The oil companies are basically stating that the world is running out (ex: Chevron's peak oil site, Beyond Petroleum

and more then half of all sales in '04 were laptop systems.
Wonder if they have finally figured out a way to update the OS without performing a reboot.
