This has been happening to me, as well. I am j.y@gmail.com (not really) and someone else has jy@gmail.com. I occasionally get mail for him and I'm hoping is isn't getting my mail.
The only reason these guys are against IPv6 is that they make money selling the ever-scarcer IPv4 addresses. Take away the scarcity, take away their profits. That's why they object.
A former shuttle astronaut explained on NPR this morning that the pilot flies until the last few hundred miles, then "hands over" the controls to commander, who actually lands the shuttle.
Ask the people that use them, they'll tell you why.
That's why I asked. It wasn't meant to be a facetious question.
I get the economics part of it, but was doubtful that the higher-end workstations (e.g., from the IBM link) could really reduce work time on certain tasks by that much. That was the basis of my question.
The high-end IBM workstation from your link above is $32,000. Is it really that much better than a high-end desktop (around 10x the price of the best desktops)?
Basically, it means that if you believe that story, you'll believe anything, as in "come to me because I have a bridge (sometimes the Brooklyn Bridge) I want to sell you."
This machine is about a half-block from my house. It's amazing to see the faces on people as the pass by the "store." Everyone is just itching to buy something, I think more to see all the machinery at work than because they need anything.
One of the benefits of its success around the US might be the reintroduction of dollar coins. I'm not sure how it gives change now, but I hope it doesn't drop up to $5 in quarters like our metro ticket vending machines.
I wanted to find out the price of the new search box, so I entered ' "google search appliance" price ' in google. The second link had the price ($20,000-$250,000), and the sponsored link is Inktomi's enterprise search solution.

Don't forget Microsoft Bob!
Thanks for the list. I was very glad to see Why's (poignant) Guide to Ruby on the list.

Let the students code a system for tracking grades?!
I hope they have a robust honor system at the school.
San Bernardino county in California is 20,000 sq. miles. That's only one county. Take half, we won't mind!
The first minute has always been free for me (Sprint).

Well, obviously we wouldn't as you. you don't even know what a hashcode is.
Welcome to Slashdot, sckienle!

Actually, about 1.6 billion people (about 25% of Earth's total) don't have access to electricity.

Very clever.
