Because it is Toyota in Japanese. There is a "da" sound in Japanese. What's interesting is that "Calola" (Carolla) dealerships is what they call toyota dealerships from what I have seen in Japan.
Japan's "protection" of is consumer is a pick and choose one. Take for example, Japanese TVs. Imports were banned early on and the price of TVs were kept artificially high by the Japanese Government. The Japanese economy is highly regulated. Maybe that's why it is doing poorly.

that the most vulnerable people in society need to be protected from corrupting influences
Yes, those vulnerable dead people need to be protected from the corrupting influence of the necrophiliacs.
I find a laptop with a CD burner, and both windows and linux installed can come in very handy. If you forget anything software wise in your tool kit, you can pull it off your laptop, or use their net connection to pull it from the net. You can also use your laptop to check defaults and to test any external hardware (like printers, mice, keyboards).

Yes, I know how much they cost, I figured that this was something that would last a long time and I wanted something extremely durable and very fun to play on. I'd say I have gotten my moneys' worth out of them, much better than some of the other exercise equiptment my family has bought. What kind of pads do you currently that are equivalent to ignition 2.0? My friend wants to buy a set of pads as well but doesn't really have the money for the ignitions. And how durable are your pads? So far with the ignitions I have had no problems after a year of use in college dorms (it was getting passed around a bit and played on almost everyday by a lot of people).
I'm eager to hear from you about those pads,

Actually, last year I went to RedOctane.com and bought to of their ignition 2.0 pads and a copy of DDR (Dance Dance Revolution), after playing DDR once in the arcade. It has made me much more fit and I have noticed a sharp increase in my energy levels and metabolism. It is not monotanous like exercise, and it is a quick 30 min, full-body cardiovascular workout (you must use your entire body to keep yourself balanced). I'd seriously recommend this to anyone, don't worry about looking foolish, once you get good at it you will be quite impressive. If you don't even want to initially invest the money in the pads, go to ddrfreak.com and try to find an arcade near you that has it, and spend one or two dollars to test it out. So far this year, I have gotten about 7 friends addicted to this game. My Computer Science buddies and I at Clemson play it during coding sessions to clear our mind, not to mention it's a good way to reward yourself for hard-work.

Instead of proprietary software you could distribute browsers that are open, and block pop-ups and spam. All this being default settings.
Those are by far my favorite things to play at the arcades.
