I can go to a reasonably priced hospital in Mexico and get operated on my the best cheap surgeons in the world in China or Indea. Finally the end of the blood-sucking greedy american medical system.
If you concentrate on assholes, you'll be too busy to do anything useful from now until the day you die, because there are an infinite number of assholes in every area of life.
I've sure found enough corporate conformist assholes in the MS world, and enough yuppie wannabe assholes in the Apple world. Who cares?
What do you expect? The UK is the same country where a mob attacked a pediatrician's office because they thought they were a pedophile with a fancy sign in the front yard to advertise their perversion.
"Some robots are equipped with cameras and lights and can send back images to surgeons. Others have surgical tools attached that can be controlled remotely..."
Sounds like a good start for outsourcing surgery. Let the rich start to feel the brunt it and we might see something finally done.
No, you wouldn't have to be online, eh? you could just work offline. Use Mozilla as a standalone, x-platform frameworks for your app, accessing your harddrive instead of the net.

It has to be priced lower than a laptop or forget it. Why spend $479 when you can get a simple laptop for $499.
This is the level of the US political class. Does he know what email is?
I feel it coming on - the sweet buzz of HYSTERIA!!! YEEHAAA!! I'm long oil! Watch oil prices rise with every US/Brit government denunciation!

Delphi has always been great but.. Vendor Lockin and Platform lockin - yek. And they definately need GC to stay contemporary.
I'll never understand how buying into some corporate logo makes people think they're individuals.
