I think the killer app will be having a really wide (like 2-3 feet) screen that you can wrap around in front of you so that you can get some peripheral vision while fragging.
Think of it. Not being confined to a cramped 1600x1200 screen....
Where I work not only do we have no dress code, but this past summer one of my colleges came to work for two weeks wearing only surfer-shorts and sunglasses. My how I love programing in academia.
Of course, as of the dot-com bust our funding has gone down the tubes....
My main beef with IE: It can't propperly understand CSS1 tags like "max-width: xx%;" or "position: fixed;". Tables were never meant to be used for layout purposes, which is why we have CSS standards and tags. IE however doesn't properly understand CSS and thereby forces us to keep using those damned tables to align things.
If Pd becomes mandated by law in the US it is going to severely cripple any software and hardware industry not associated with MS. If this happens I'm moving to Canada or Europe. Thank goodness for those other countries (China, Iran, etc.) that at least don't want MS looking over their backs. We may be more free politically, but in a few years they might have more software/hardware choice.
Those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety deserve neither...

I know that I'd love one.

If you are refering to the Japanese defensive martial art founded by Morihei Ueshiba, it is spelled "Aidido".

Die IE, die.
