No, it cannot. You might use it that way and you might think it is a good thing to do, but that does not make it so.
The biggest problem is that is not what it was designed to do. No different than people who think emailing files around is a good way to transport them. Which is what happens when you don't know that email BASE64 encodes everything since it was only designed to really deal with ASCII text.
Windows 8 will allow multiple open tiles, I thought. You can even run explorer in one then run apps for it in that. Is this not how most current applications will be supported on windows 8?
One application open at a time is not how most people use computers, and for good reason.
I sure hope the apps won't be too easy to port. Keyboard and mouse interface do not translate well to touch. Nor does many open windows translate well to only one window open at full screen like on a phone.
These two environments are so different that trying to move applications over without at least replacing the entire user interface will only end in pain.
By allowing secret patents people could be infringing and have no way of knowing. A applies for a patent, B produces the item not knowing of A's pending patent has good sales for two years and then is sued into the ground.
Yeah, but it would have had to been out 2-4 years ago. While nokia was still dicking around with symbian. They fiddled while their Rome burned and now they hope that this sale of the company to MS marketing will pay off better than just closing up shop. They have chosen a slow death over a quick one.
It costs money to avoid unskippable cut scenes? How about this, let me skip all the bullshit logos at the beginning of the game and we can call that already a huge win. Then you go look at halflife and see how you can not have cutscenes. The Portal series would also be good for you to check out.
Why limit it to setops? I use an HTPC and control it with tablets and phones. I would say it even beats the appleTV since I can get stuff that is only available via Flash.
Unless the next windows were ported to this architecture that would change. I am betting even China does not intend this for their domestic consumer home computers.
Not sure about competitive shooting at that level, but at smaller events I know of people using contacts and such to ensure they have superhuman vision at the distance they will be shooting. Basically just making sure they get the maximum amount of correction when at the optometrist. This must aid them against unaided shooters who may have 20/40 vision and not even know it.
Not a problem I tell you, you will be getting a free Cisco/Dell/HP/Verizon thing as soon as I am done. It is out in the truck parked in the garage a couple blocks over.
The credit card industry itself. Meaning that to get to PCI compliance certified you and all others who are certified would pay into a pool that pays the auditors to audit, with randomly assigned auditors and the same payment pass or fail. These auditors would then take some sort of financial risk if you were to fail a future audit.
Forget losing performance, think about your GPU running 100% when it only needs to be at 10% and what that will due to your powerbill. My GTX460 eats 150watts and newer cards will be even more.

HTTP is not a replacement for every other protocol. I am sick of the brain dead thinking it is. We have other protocols for a reason.
As a simple example, http sure is not enough for an ftp client, ssh client, etc, etc, etc. 7.5 of course will let you do all these things.
Quality phones?
When are they going to get 720p displays? I upgraded from 800x480 and I would never go back.
Not that windows phone is for me anyway. I am not going to be locked into one market and no real ROM scene since there is no source available.

Or maybe they just use an virtual machine like everyone does these days?

I just use hulu on my HTPC. Why do you need an apple anything to do this?
I have considered using an mini as an HTPC though.
From all danger yes, but I sure would let not my little one commit genocide. I would not even let him torture cats for fun.
A parent that fails to even show up during the child's life to teach those lessons is the kind of parent whose children end up in foster care.
Then why play this sick game?
Why care if I believe in him so long as I do good?
A truly loving parent would be glad to see their child do well even if that child does not call them.

What does your work of historic fiction have to do with this?
Why bring up some unrelated literature?
What other than patents is it?
If we abolished patents how would this not be a free standard?

I think you mean two 6 pin connectors, which is what my card has.

Its predecessors? I think you mean its descendants.
They will disclose it in the EULA, that no one reads.

Why does this amaze you?
What are the odds either the writer was paid, Forbes was paid or one of the two have people involved in both?
Also when the switch is flipped it should not perform its normal work.
That way it cannot be left in that mode.
