I don't own a kindle, but Amazon just added PDF support in the latest kindle models via a firmware update. There's no pan-and-zoom support though so it squishes the pdf page down to fit the screen which kind of sucks.
Nevermind how the games look, there is a serious problem with input lag in converting the original 480i ti a progressive signal for a modern LCD, upscaling can also add lag (albeit not as much as i->p). This makes any games that require time-sensitive movements (in my case: DDR and shmups) difficult to play. And this is why I will likely always have a CRT around.
You can actually opt out of the Facebook API entirely and then you won't recieve anymore invites or anything else since the applications can't "see" you.
This is just another reason that people should be encrypting their chats with something like OTR so that not only can companies not filter anything but they also can't see the content of your IMs.
Now on the flip side of the coin, you can still install windows 2k or xp or almost any old version of linux, provided you are willing to risk not having 100% hardware support.
Correction, you can install Windows XP as long as Microsoft's WGA server is around.
I didn't mean to blame the teachers, although re-reading what I wrote it might sound like that. The last line I mention "educators" which (to me) includes not just teachers but everyone at all levels of the educational system. It's gonna take cooperation at all levels, I certaintly don't want to place the blame on teachers when it is often times higher-ups or disruptive students causing problems. Sorry for the confusion^^
I'm not sure which is worse, having evangelical Christians in the United States trying to discredit evolution as a valid scientific theory, or denying the holocaust because it will offend certain Muslims. The purpose of public school teachers should be to teach the facts to the best of their ability, it should not be about bending and twisting historical events, or science. If a child's parents do not want their child to learn about these things then send them to a private school(and no I don't believe in government backed school vouchers, I don't want _my_ tax dollars to fund your fundamentalists). It's time for public school educators to stop shirking their responsibility of teaching and start trying to break down the ignorance and dogma that has filled some of these students heads.
Hmm I would definately have to say the most comfortable is the gamecube controller, it just seems to slide into your hand and is great for everything except games that use the D-Pad really. The dreamcast controller is also pretty nice and the dpad is great for fighting games although hardcore gamers will still prefer a joystick. The original analog controller for the playstation was also damn comfortable as it has a longer handle then the dual shock which honestly feels kind of small to me. Overall I would say the gamecube though, since I never remember my hands ever getting tired from that controller (and it certaintly wasn't from lack of playing!).
I think this is just phrased so bad, maybe brain-age is boring to you. But it's obviously not boring to all those people playing it and enjoying it. If something is boring why the hell would people enjoy it? I personally find all those MMORPGs boring as hell but to my friend who is addicted it's like crack, I mean I don't say "Should more games be boring--just like MMORPGs". Anyway just a bad title....
Ok I think this makes me a super JP nerd or something. But the splicing of the frog DNA as described in the movie (no idea of its basis in reality) actually was that certain frogs randomly changed sex in a single sex environment. What's happening here with parthenogenesis is asexual reproduction. A little bit different.

"in order to maintain compatibility with the existing infrastructure." Tons (dare I say, a majority) of software would break if they used UTF8
What about open WiFi networks in public places?
If you look closely all menus in OS X are slightly transparent.
I believe what the OP meant was that people with PPC machines who are looking to upgrade to leopard will be SOL come Friday.

hmm are you sure about that? Actually neooffice 3.0 just came out yesterday and it seems like they've improved it a lot.
Did you try the mac branch off, neooffice?
I wonder if they will test the macbook pro 17" which has a $50 matte option?
I think you're forgetting that pirating Xbox 360 games is ridiculously easy.
Well it is possible to plug in a 2nd display to an imac (or a macbook pro for that matter) if you really want to.
Meanwhile apple still doesn't support write to left scripts such as hebrew and arabic.
I wonder why you neglected to mention Windows ME?

Unfortunately the price of corn is skyrocketing already because of bio-diesel
I'm surprised no one has written an extension for firefox or something that will automatically delete your information
Akira Yamaoka the man behind the Silent Hill soundtracks, is also amazing.

I think there should be a law that says privacy policies cannot exceed 1KB
