It would probably look just as stupid as a rectangle. But then again, I don't like things that are completely a "circle" or a "retangle".. and apparently people who liked the old imac design didn't either.

Chinese will replace English on the net in less than 10 years. More like 5.
How exactly is it going to "replace" English? Sure there might be a lot more Chinese information in five to ten years, but it doesn't mean it will come at the expense of that available in English. And unless you're activley *looking* for it, the internet to you will probably not be all that different.
Remember that English is not a static language, it freely adopts words and phrases from other languages as required. It can be both precise and expressive, as required.
How exactly are either of these points unique to English? And for the first argument, havn't most languages adopted words in the technical field from English?
I'm at the karma cap, and I've been oscillating between 47 and 50 for some time. Does anyone else in that situation agree with my Modest Karma Proposal [slashdot.org]?
Why don't you just use your points? That's probably what the cap is there for..
What does it matter what the IT community has accepted/is accepting? I don't think the space program is looking for a standard. These devices will be running on their own network no doubt.

I think the point was that Chinese won't be taking over as the international business language.
