Well, it's not the FEDERAL GOVERNMENT that wants this. The state of California is proposing this requirement in direct response to the large number of stolen phones.... Mostly iPhones.
I don't know what you're talking about with Exchange.... Activesync doesn't allow your Exchange Administrator to wipe your phone. He can only wipe the emails on your mail server, and THAT'S IT!
This all seems like it can be handled with more law enforcement in CA, and the state is trying to push this onto the cell phone manufacturers and providers.
But even if you're a fine upstanding citizen, and return the lost property to the "lost and found", wouldn't the holders of the lost and found also be possessing stolen property? What protects them from the same fate as a thief?
This whole discussion mixes legal and moral issues. All that aside, the article is asking "What's the best way to write my name on my stuff?". Maybe there is no one simple answer, but there are many alternatives. How about claiming the lost item on your insurance?
Why does it need to be a screen? How about a multi-touch surface that does not display anything. You could use beeps or voice synth for telling the driver what mode you're in, and what you're changing the setting to.
In fact, take it one step further and don't even have a surface to touch. Just install a kinect or leap motion interface. That should do it, and would require minimal redesign.
It's probably because that any other "space battle" you have ever seen was between 2 (or more) fleets. The fleets obey the orders of the commanders, and are generally intended to adhere to a particular strategy. The EVE battle, while it consists of at least a couple of battling factions, doesn't have a single mind guiding them all. They just know that they have to secure the location, or destroy the enemy. How they do that is probably just up to each starship commander.
Try this: get a wounded rabbit, and throw it into a sealed room. Then add about a dozen random hungry wolves. That would seem more like the EVE online battles.
How about this for innovation: The laptops should integrate one of those laser projection keyboards, and have the keys projected on the bottom half of the laptop. That way, you could get your split keyboard, anyone else could get their DVORAK or European layout, and there would be only one model to rule them all!
Why would Apple create a super overpowered desktop machine when all services are being moved to "Cloud-based"? Certainly you don't need that much power to run a web browser. All you need is a Pentium 4 and a super fast internet connection.

I wonder how he would take to working in a pocket calculator.
Venkman: "Egon? Any ideas?"
Egon pulls out a calculator and is about to type on it when Venkman slaps it out of his hands.

I wonder if your roadies have the same creed as above....

Also, wear them into a casino, and get beaten up in a back room for cheating.

You know, I can totally believe that Sarah Silverman is a terrible roommate.
"Merc" is short for Mercenary.
"Hg" is short for Mercury.
..It's how the technology is used
I think this Virtual boss is a GOOD THING, and should be implemented..... but only in prisons.
I like to sing that while I'm mining ore in Skyrim...
Even usb 3.0 is limited to 4 Gbps. That would already be insufficient for the 6.9Gbps proposed in the summary.

Yes! Those keys are for stopping the action when you're playing FPS games.
Leet programmers have monitors with polar coordinates instead of Cartesian.
I like this guy. He doesn't stop for punctuation.
Thanks. Now, in this context, what is STEM?
But I don't want to spend the rest of my life in a foreign land.
Perhaps the flutes were infested with termites. That might warrant their destruction.
You have just insulted billions of fictional Pakleds.
Lunar Orbiter images a single pixel - it must be the Chineese lander.
Even HID-Only access isn't going to save you. See the USB rubber ducky.

Err.. in this context, what the hell is a BAMF? Do you mean BOFH?
I thought that "BAMF" was the sound that the teleporting mutant from the X-men made....
