    I've played with them at work. They have nifty features like voice dictation and handwriting recognition but they are about 85% accurate. It can even partially understand cursive! Very cute lil things but not quite there yet.

  19. uh what is the adult to children ratio? on Supreme Court to Hear CIPA Case · · Score: 1

    I personally think that machines that are in the view of everyone should have porn filters. I eman it's pretty sad for people to get their kicks in the librarys anyways. That should be looked at in the privacy on someone's home. Anyways having experience in working at schools and their libraries, some kids don't "intend" on going to porn sites but accidently do. Anyone remember the whitehouse.com, nasa.com instead of .gov porn sites? Anyone get locked into looking at those sites because of the tricks the sites use to keep you there? Thos can be disturbing for a child to innocently stumble upon. If libraries do leave the computers unfiltered they should at the very least not be in public view. Perhaps in one of those study rooms. Just my 2 cents.

  20. what about my games? on Moving to Mac Made Easy · · Score: 1

    I think this parody video says it all http://www.ugo.com/channels/games/features/switch/ media/switch.mov
