Agreed. 'Family timer' press release follows in the footsteps, or is that the dust, of innovative market leading Nintendo Wii... Imagine where we would be today if Microsoft was a really innovative company...
You can bet that it is already happening everywhere else. The Germans are opposed to this type of activity because they know just how invasive and soul destroying it can be. There is a film set pre unification called "The Lives of Others" which sheds light on the old Stasi. Is this what everyone really wants? Absolute power corrupts absolutely.
Sir Richard Branson actually got arrested in the early days of Virgin Music if you read his excellent autobiography (evading VAT tax) and he had to pay it back or he would go to prison!
Moller and Branson (Virgin Galactic) have determination and vision, which is exactly what you need when it comes down to being the next Henry Ford. Wonder how Scaled Composites (Virgin Galactic) and the Cartercopter guys view the skycar? I think it looks a lot more feasable than other flying cars. The time is now! As I've said before I am unconvinced of the saucer - but bring on the skycar! Try the model for free with X-plane http://www.x-plane.org/
Love the ambitious direction Moller have taken with this. I am excited that so many advancements in automation and control, miniturisation, materials etc. are bringing the Skycar so close to reality.
Personally, I'm not that interested in the saucer - it was a logical engine test bed for the time - but the skycar is great. The model for X-plane works great. Try it out! It's free but you will have to sign up http://www.x-plane.org./ Some discussion going back to 2004 can be found here http://forums.x-plane.org/lofiversion/index.php?t9 966.html.
Take a look at Jade. It was designed and built by Aoraki Corporation, whose previous succes was Link(?).
This includes an integrated object orientated, transaction based, distributed computing alternative. Just Another Development Environment.
Yep, I used this same trick on my 1.2 Amiga, with a Workbench 1.3 disk and 1 MB of RAM! I could copy the Workbench to RAD and could reboot as quick as flash. It was *wonderful*.
Infact, I used to load Carrier Command to RAD, because it crashed so often, and I wanted to exit it before it died, and reload it quickly. Or maybe I just liked seeing it load *SO FAST*. Anyone know if RAD is supported with WinUAE?

The alternative is the object orientated database, and JADE also has in my opinion a great IDE and the other 'requirements' you mention.
