Please gents, think logically here. This is something fixed ~three weeks after reproducing the problem. And it was something that could easily be fixed with a firmware update. It's not like the hardware was broken.
So, good job Intel for fixing it, but patting them on the back for admitting a problem [on a tiny user base] that was easily fixed is a delusion.
The other thing to remember is that there might be a certain number of people in the world at any one time, but that people are born and die within that time [and old ones won't be deleted]. I don't think it's inconceivable that Facebook might reach their current limit in 20-25 years.
You've got to be kidding. do you really think this child will have _any_ of those college experiences that you're recalling in your head at this moment? please.
take one minute to read a few stories about child prodigies and the utter lack of development of their social lives and how most are headcases by the time they're twenty.
I'm sorry to complain, but Slashdot's quality has really gone to hell lately. To be honest, I don't understand much about the editing process here, but something really needs to change. Between the mis-spellings and constantly late and duplicate articles, I think this web site could stand for some improvement.
I'm sorry, but you are missing the point. It is not against the law to be a monopoly, but to use monopolizing tactics to either create or sustain a monopoly is against the law. AMD has given mounds and mounds of evidence and specific examples of how they believe Intel has violated anti-trust law.
Also, 80% is quite a monopoly, not to mention the lack of other competitors in the marketplace. I think Intel is going to be in trouble on this one.
I don't think anyone would [or should] disagree with you.
But from Steve Jobs' perspective, if all of Microsoft's "innovations" seem to be coming from the same place, namely Apple, and simply implemented a few months or years later, then it's pretty obvious who's doing the innovating and who's doing the copying.

Or, printing (!) 1,789,569,706 times!
About as well as ramping a steel pipe through tin foil?
Agreed. Mod parent/grand-parent up!
Please people, thermodynamics and conservation of energy are all you really need to understand here.

Epic grammar fail.
A possible suggest would be "Will try to..."
sorry for being picky, but seriously!
Brian made videos of the tests (which were apparently done in his home, including his kitchen)."
Proof that Brian is not married.
I'm really glad I don't program JCL anymore. yow.
But I am really annoyed that April Fool's has now become a multi-day event.

So, please go buy new ones. Lots of new ones! Especially the $60 variety.
See? We just paid for our price cut.

I for one, am glad we haven't run out of new technology to make even lighter 15+ thousand dollar bicycles.

no carrier.
Is this going to be the part where Microsoft includes the ending of the game?
agreed.

...which he says will enable them to have the consistency needed to be a primary grid energy provider, and not just supplemental to the gird.
I, for one, welcome our new gird overlords.

The only way to vote in that manner is to stop reading Slashdot.
which I'm on the verge of doing

This study has been funded by the state of Kansas.
1) Assloads of publicity from suing Apple. Suing the fruity one always gets you some attention no matter how frivolous.
Judging from the commentary I've seen here and around the web, this doesn't look to be _good_ publicity.
