I hear there is a zillion pound program mooted to make them all use The One Network And Operating System... possibly this is to enable those paranoid thrillers where hackers change peoples medicine to poison (although the NHS seems to manage a few cases of that all by itself - e.g. go in with an ingrown toenail and come out dead).
My parents house is heated by modern wood fire. Of course since they live next to a temperate beach, they don't get snow (they get frost in the winter though). There is a big pile of wood in the garage, which I have had to chop on occasion.
Well, the PS2 has about the loading speed of a Commodore 64 with a tape deck, so presumably the PSP will go back to the speed of an old IBM punched card machine. Mind you, modern Windows games are getting that way these days, and that's loading from hard disk.
He means that Cubans are Americans (coming from North, South or Central America) but not citizens of the United States of America (a country which has most of its territory within North America).
Anyway, a big chunk of Cuba was taken over by the US Armed forces a while ago (possibly during some war some publisher started to sell more newspapers) and is used now to hold people the US doesn't like but doesn't want to consider as being on their territory.
Is to get off at Euston Square station, then walk 200 metres to Euston station. It's annoying that Euston itself is not on the circle line, I know. Trains to manchester depart every 30 minutes (during normal hours).
Hey, I legitimately paid for winzip. And so I have no nag screen, and free updates, and can transfer it to new hardware guilt-free. Winzip has the licensing model that more commercial software should have!
Mind you, that Phil Katz bloke seems to be a bit slow replying to his email these days...
I'm not sure how much russian language pop will take over other countries, regardless of the price. I think that might be called "friction", which reduces arbitrage.
When I went there the CDs seemed fairly legitimate. There was a group called "TATU" which I believe later became popular outside russia, and a group called "HANDS UP" which sounded quite poppy, not that I could understand the words. I didn't really look at the foreign (US) music section though...
A picture of the parties trademarked logo is useful though, since at least one election in the UK was claimed to be lost by the liberal democrats, by people voting for the literal democrats in error.
Like in Auckland airport! The cafe there has a TV turned on LOUD, and in new zealand they just have three channels, of of which in the mornings broadcast only advertisements, continuously. I reckon it is a government plan to force people to go outside and exercise instead of watching TV, but it can be annoying if you are waiting for a plane and trying to read a magazine.
India may well be the worlds largest (in population) democracy, but there have been news items over the years about irregularities in various districts.
Of course the idea behind moving the US to electronic voting is to make it easier and less labor-intensive to falsify results, with no real audit trail.
Have you read the EULA for OEM microsoft "works"? It is scary... there are demo versions of software on magazine coverdisks that let you do more things!
"Thou shalt not attempt to benchmark the software, not shalt thou create documents that disparage microsoft or are obscene or otherwise naughty"... (paraphrasing).
That happened to me with amazon. I had used a cybercafe a month prior to this event to view my account, and it had crashed and left me logged on. It doesn't help that their sign out feature is called "click here if you are not you."
So amazon had automagically enabled one-click on that public machine, so some time later someone was able to order a dozen "parental guidance" rubbish rap cds and send them to my house by one-clicking. It took a few international phone calls to try and clear that up, but I did not get charged for the CDs, postage, tax, eventually.
The moral of the story is - never use a site that accepts a login password in a cybercafe, ever. But it is silly for a company to use such methods.

You PL/1 coder you! Pah, bitstrings...
This was Bill Gates response to the Justice Department ruling... from now on, Windows does not perform illegal operations!

That is because what other countries would call a cellar, we call "our next door neighbours in flat B".

GBA; except that the CPU is much better than a SNES (reducing programming costs) and the battery life is quite reasonable, unlike a Lynx.
Stop believing all that hype! He was born in New New Haven, Connecticut.

And there to be no other heat-sources in the room. Damn my PS2 DVD remote is unreliable!
Will it take up less space if it is top-loading? That means you can't stack stuff on it.
But people who have used BBC BASIC rave over it compared to the microsoft basics of competing 8 bit machines.
Remember, Sam Fox Strip poker was released on the Commodore 64, not the XXXbox...

In my case, my TV physically went boom, but I can still watch DVDs on my PC, although the artefacts are more noticeable. Backup systems can be handy.
You can get sacked for saying that!

I won't reveal the working title of my next book since otherwise amazon will be taking pre-orders for it by tommorrow...
