It seems to me like any new sector or industry comes along and people start making money microsoft goes AAHHH we don't control that! So they buy a bunch of companies and produce some buggy vaporware and spend a bunch of money. Is it possible for them to be happy with that they got or at least not branch out so much and focus on goods they can produce and produce them well.
Big gas guzzlers are for those who need one. This may be a case where a bigger car wouldn't hurt. But there are many cases where people can drive a small car, motorcycle, bike, walk, or take transit.
Don't drive gas guzzlers. Don't drive unless you need to. Maybe while you're at it you might as well bike or walk some places and lose some weight reducing the burden on health care.
People have to realize that privacy isn't just some criminal's ideal to keep from getting caught. If the data is out there it will be seen, hacked, sold and abused.
Eccleston made a good doctor.

I must admit i had never really heard of doctor who until the new series was shown on cbc. It's not something that's shown on space even. I don't really have a frame of reference to compare Eccleston to but I thought he did a very good job.
I was also kind of happy they kept the daleks with the R2D2 design. I heard they were going to switch to some spider like thing. Don't mess with success or you'll end up like star trek;)
One thing that does annoy me is the short season.
13 episodes hardly feels like enough. At least it was longer than the hockey season. Movie night in canada is hardly the beer drinking hot wing fest that hockey night in canada used to be.
I'm sure you guys are tired about hearing of apple but I am very impressed with office 2004 for mac.
Install
Drag + Drop the folder to "Applications". Takes up 525 MB. Takes only a few minutes + 0 reboots. Everything is standalone. The way it should be! Only comes with writer/excel/ppt/entourage/msn messenger for mac. None of that "office toolbar" or other crap. Plays nicely with the system:D
Cold boot: On my G4 ibook (with its magical 133 fsb) takes about 2 to 4 seconds (4 seconds after fresh reboot,
Opening and closing large documents. 6mB txt file opens instantly. Copying and pasting all that data took some time (didn't measure but it was slow) Saving a new.doc file that is of size 20mb takes about 15 seconds. I didn't have the patience to wait for spell+grammar checking to finish because it was taking forever. A full quit is is in the order of a second.
The coolest part of all is the free floating transparent toolbars and toolboxes. I'm also more fond of the user interface. I think its clean, generally well laid out. Obviously microsoft has it in them to play nice and put out a great product. I must admit i prefer to use latex for engineering lab reports. (texshop is a great app for os x)
many/.'ers can tell you how to take an integral but only a small percentage can tell you how a wavelet transform works. If/.'ers are "nerds" imagine how much the general public cares. For them its all about the drama anyways. Look at CSI. They have consultants but they still "enhance" video like crazy and source micro fibers they find on dead bugs pulled out of peoples asses.
I second the notion. They can posture all they fucking want but people up here won't go for it. The politicians don't get lobbied half as aggresively as they do down there!
Now i can have that affair that i've always wanted with that chick who operates the tunnelling electron microscope. I can send her love letters on invoices and memos and no one will know. Muhahahahahah!!!
Not all transistors are used in digital logic. A transistor is modelled as a voltage controlled current amplifier. Ever heard of the transistor radio? It's obviously not a digital radio:P
These type of transistors are good for amplifying signals and buffering signals. Basically, if the transistor couldn't operate at 600Ghz then a 600Ghz signal would simply be filtered out because the transistor would be too slow.
To answer the power question these things won't be packed in together with millions of others. Maybe they might only come in 1 per package as a power amplifier.
I don't know many people who are willing to submit changes and then pay $$ to see it. The whole reason why wiki is successful is because any one can benefit.

For a mac, firefox just doesn't cut it. I really love the extensions but i'm willing to live without them to have the power of the wheel mouse and other such useful things. Camino uses a nice native cocoa interface which makes a big difference in usability.
I do a fait bit of computer usage on many operating systems, as well as developing, and for me the perfect mouse would have 1 regular button and a scroll wheel that can middle click for stuff like open-link-in tab. I'm not a fan of those little context menu's at all. If they exist they should be used sparingly and have few options. I think apple's HIG are pretty good.

I've always wanted a 12 inch cock. And now, i can have one and all i gotta do is kill spam assassin.

I suppose all the engineers walk around the building wearing helmets and kneepads.
At least this is only first dupe!

Surely the middle of the summer isn't year round and that still doesn't mean you need a gas guzzler.

Woz dropped out too. I'd put him into the great minds because he did a hell of a lot more technologically than a lot of grads still can't do.

It's pretty much common knowledge that Florida is the source of a hell of a lot of spam. Our country is not the problem.

At least the little guy has nothing to worry about. We're obviously not worth enough money to sue.
So now i'll be able to bite his shiny metal ass!?

Wow. Sounds like the thinking behind star wars!!!

Mod parent up. This was exaclty what i was thinking! In fact i've seen the car on tv before.
