I think It's full of shit. The market price is not base on manufacture price but on performance level. If this new chip is faster than an x86 it will cost more. As the newness wears off and the price comes down it will level out based on "MIPS" or something. Remember when factory automation was going to allow all of use to work half days? It never happened. some of us still work full days and some of us are out of work. Someone forgot to factor in greed.
For my rebuttal,
AMD is better yet cheaper, Linux is better yet cheaper. WTF? guess i'll STFU.

>I'm sure in this thread we'll see those who say how they hate it or love it, and then someone will mention firefox. Does it ever end?
Sure it does. I don't like firefox, I use mozilla. I don't have time for all this wacky virus, trojan Adware stuff you folks speak of. I don't know it well enough to hate it. I'm to busy working the stock market and playing UT2004 on my linux workstation. I have files that date back to 1997 yet no adware.:)

My company uses 3D printing for most of our prototypes. Most parts only cost a few hunderd bucks to have one mailed to us in a day or two. The most common name for this is stereolithography. In a day or two you have a complex part which you can touch, use or build into an assembly for testing. At one point we had most of a bill validator made out of this stuff just for lab testing.
Not really a waste. 1. You would save on the cost of a webcam. 2. It is still a camera when you need one. 3. You can control Brightness, contrast depth of field and zoom much better than with a typical webcam. 4. looks impressive sitting atop your monitor.
The only downside I see is if you want to keep your fancy camera hidden away and protected from little finger prints.
It's no suprise, with the cost a an HDTV you don't need to buy to many of them to put them at the top of the list. Their's nothing unusual about HDTV, just an increase in resolution and an excuse to get a step change in consumer cost that will never come down.
What Apple should be doing is be "cool" like they used to be. I had respect for apple for a little while (the darwin thing). Now apple is in the ranks of SCO. Time to buy one of the iPod killers from HP or Sony and leave these "litigious bastards" behind. It's no big deal, We have IBM as the new cool.
If HDTV is innovation then so is jumping from 640x480 to 1600x1200 on my PC. Since when is the quite normal progresion of resolution, foot print and features of an existing device considered innovative. TV is TV and TV sucks. I don't need to be "programmed".
Yep. It's like getting 30% off of something you didn't need in the first place. This trick usually only works with shoes. (and the gender that buys to many of them):) If deducting the cost of tax software was a win I would find a $5000 package.

Barcode is recognized. It's everywhere. Try shopping without it. Alot of crap these days has up to 5 barcodes hidden on around and in it. RFID is trying to replace barcode. Remove the battery from your cell phone and count the number of barcodes hidden underneath. don't forget to count the one on the battery itself. I'm not positive, but i think barcode fits just within the 25 year mark.
I wonder about that one. WWW is kinda just a document type being transmitted on the 30 year old internet. Maybe it's barcode. Barcode seems to run the world right now and is going to be replaced with RFID (#10) someday when society allows.
Well I just put a dull serrated edge on one side of the handle of a spork and called it the sporknife. It is truly going to bring us into the next century. They are waiting till the 18th to annouce it becuase my patent was delayed. Behold the sporknife my friend.

Imagine you are eating with a friend and each of you have a sporknife. You need to cut a piece of beef. You simply share your sporknives and enjoy. This will bring all of mankind back together. can you feel it?...world peace ay last.

And we would like to keep it that way.

Lets hope it doesn't include the stink.
bunch of freshly printed salesmen locked in the fax room..... with a bunch of freshly printed pen1s's.
Imagine the look on the salesmens face as he discovers he is the print job right behind the goatze guy.

Stop Wining.
I'll be interested when it can find my car keys for me. I don't know where I'd go though, does slashdot have a cafe?

Yes, Very funny :)

It's to bad WANG isn't still marketing their wares. ...not that you couldn't throw in a bid for anyway.

The book that used to read:
"If you have medical deductions, fill out form S and enter your result on line 34a"
would become:
"Type your medical deduction amount and press [ENTER]."
Tax code is just an algorithm.
IF $MONTH = FEBUARY THEN GOTO 1040.

I feel like eighty percent of us are in between. It's just crazy to me that we have to PAY to pay taxes.
