I resisted the urge to get a PDA until I found the Kyrocera smartphone series--a cell phone with an integrated PDA (Palm OS). I'm a computer geek, but I will only carry one frickin' geek tool. I refuse to weigh my pockets down with a phone, a pager, and a PDA. But one device for all three? I use the hell out of it. And Kyocera's next smart phone model will play mp3's and have GPS. A la Tolkein, one geek device to hold and bind 'em.
My servers' web stats show 96.4% of all browsers visiting the servers are Internet Explorer and/or Netscape. The only thing surprising in this article--other than the clearly fudged percentage sited--is that the author advocates, with a straight-face, that because 3-4% of a site's visitors use incompatible browsers this translates into a 99.9% obsolence rate.
Still, it's always amusing to see someone suit up, gird their horse, and charge at the windmills while proclaiming the revolution.
You're totally right to be reluctant to get screwed by the diamond industry...but the girl needs her diamond. Trust me on this. She may say she's cool without it, but don't believe.
Get the diamond. The cash you spend will be compensated by the lady.
Wouldn't any DOS-attack against an alleged "offender" also hit the bandwidth/resources of all the innocent systems along the way? I'm not sure how this wouldn't create lots of collateral damage for people who aren't involved.

That's it, I'm moving to a remote wilderness location with a satellite dish. They'll have to pry my mp3's from my cold, dead fingers!!
