doubtful, since the computers from 200 years in the future (original Trek) don't use keyboards, they just have a bunch of switches and flashing lights.
The high school i attended had some trouble with the channel one feed a few years ago, so they forced us to watch the same recoreded edition every day for a week and a half.
Is Lisa Ling still on there?:-D
no, it can't be contained in a single atom inside someone's fingernail. if it did, we would all be living outside the universe, which means that universe would be inside our universe, so it wouldn't be a universe at all.
you've got that right... i crank out about 3 units a day with it minimized, with the screen saver running it takes my box about 30 hours for a single unit.
you can drink at 18 on a military base, so that argument is irrelevant. if you WERE fighting a war, you could drink your liver away. the beer is cheap on the base, too.
there is also a "gas guzzler" tax, i'm not sure what the basis for it is, but it has something to do with the average fuel efficiency of a manufacturer's entire fleet. so, even if ferrari came out with something that got 60MPG, it would still be subject to the tax.
gas is $1.70 a gallon because some greedy oil company says that's what it should be.
know what we call that, class? ignorance. i don't know where you are, but here in michigan the price is about $1.35... which includes the costs of drilling the oil, shipping, refining, shipping to the gas station, and somewhere near 45 cents a gallon of tax. then, the gas station has to make a few cents to cover the costs of wages, maintenance, rent, and the 3-4% that the credit card companies charge.
who makes the most money off a gallon of gas? not the dealer, not the oil company... the STATE. they are the greedy ones.
also, the price the oil companies charge dealers is closely related to the commodities market, so check that to see if maybe the brokers are the ones pushing the price up, instead of the oil companies.
BTW... i think oil cos. are bastards, too... but for environmental and political reasons, not price reasons.
I guess Armin Shimmerman was pretty cool, but I don't think he's really a star...
Or was that a different kind of Quark, that doesn't try selling self-sealing stembolts...

i'm not aware of any pedestrians being run over by a computer being used by some kid.
too bad DeForrest Kelley (Dr. McCoy) died a couple years ago.

so... if you take care of your body... you don't die...?
heh... the only contamination there was from the nuclear war they obviously had that killed off all life on that poor planet.

Wacko, maybe... but they help pass the time in class...

is that a computer in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me. :-*
didn't they do something like this on Apollo 13 with the cover of a notebook, a plastic bag, and a sock?
