Somehow I doubt Lucas has a funny bone in his body. The thought of the stale, flat, and not-even-hilariously-UNfunny jokes is already making me cringe. But then again, maybe he could get Leno and his *crack* team of writers on the job. Jay-Walking on Tatooine, anyone? I imagine this will be about the equivalent...
My HP 2510p went from an absolute maximum of 4 hours life to nearly 7 hours when I installed Win7.
I never let it go below 20% or charge above 80% if I can help it and if I'm working plugged in I've taken to removing the battery altogether so that the heat the system generates won't contribute to shortening battery life.
I certainly wouldn't ever go back to Vista or XP for the sake of a battery. Win7's power management is vastly superior. (I wonder if people having problems upgraded to Win7 vs. performed a fresh install?)
My firm utilizes MXLogic. MX records redirect all mail to them for 40-odd spam tests. Only non-quarantined mail is then delivered to users (we find that the load on mail servers reduces by 60%).
The real advantage is that users all receive a quarantine report in their inboxes daily. This allows them to release (white-list) items quarantined.
Because 1 man's spam is another's ham, this "grassroots" approach seems to work best. Aside from a few global white-listings (business partners) and black-listings (mischevious ex-employees), there is very little top-down administration.
Also, there is nothing to install or maintain on workstations like with SpamBayes or other client-based filters.
The cost per user is very resaonable, especially when you consider the time it will save admins.
If Apple really wants to get into the "Pro" game, why not create a recording iPod that syncs up with Logic? As a producer and DJ, the fact Apple won't make a pro iPod that can record (crappy voice recorders excepted) has always baffled me. I only begrudgingly got a Nano after years of saying I would hold out for a record-capabable unit. Oh well...
Blue screens aside, what about worms? Does the Win NT system link with communications? We've read here how a worm was found in the safety systems of a nuclear power plant. At least it's a submarine hunter and not a nuclear submarine...
Neutrinos better check themselves before they wreck themselves!

Funny and stupid. All of these elements could be extracted from e-waste if anyone ever thought about it. Soon we'll be mining the landfills. Mark my words. http://www.tv.com/the-simpsons/bart-the-lover/episode/1336/summary.html

Fucking brilliant!
