The bonus is that when transcribing your notes into a computer for safe keeping a filing, you are effectively reprocessing the lectures you go to. One of the best study methods i know of.
1. Under the current deal, Disney has the copyrights to the existing movies and can continue to make revenue off of them, licence merchandise, etc.
But Pixar still receives a percentage of that revenue stream. That revenue could be enough to keep Pixar afloat in the lean times between hit movies.
4. To trade away the Toy Story/Nemo/Monsters franchise in order to bet that Pixar will continue to make hit movies is a bad bet. Nobody stays on top forever in this business.
A few years ago people were saying "Pixar is taking a huge risk to move away from the Toy Story franchise and make Monsters Inc." and then more recently "Pixar is taking a huge risk to move away from the Toy Story/Monsters inc. franchises and make a movie about fish."
They probably are sitting on more than a few movie scripts that are complete gold, we don't know. But I am willing to bet that Jobs knows what he is doing here and the split from Disney will be a success.
Sun has also added a new security tool with Solaris Privileges. This lets the root user create sub roots that can have permission, for example, to patch applications but not to touch hardware components.
How can an OS have control over a real, or non-virtual, object?
Not something that deserves +2 flamebait either...

Not everyone on the planet is full sized adult (growing children, shrinking old people) so I used an approximation of an average.

I have now done the sums and yes he was correct. 3/4 of a mile didn't sound right at first read.

If you took all the people in the world and packed them into a box, like sardines, without cremating, that box would have to be about 3/4 mile per side.
Three quarters of a mile per side? That ain't packing em like sardines, that is compressing them all under massive force into a box.
There a 6 billion people on the planet, they each approximately take up an area say 5 foot by 2 foot by 1 foot. Packing 6 billion people intop a box is going to need a fucking huge box, or finally make a good use of Pamela Anderson...

You wouldn't be the first, thousands of Japanese have already received this honour.
Instead of having your ashes placed in the ocean or on your favourite piece of land somewhere, you can burn up on re-entry and be spread across the whole planet.
I don't think the company will be allowed to put you into orbit (it would decay anyway), so they will have to punt you out into deep space or let you burn up. For US$11K I don't think that will cover the cost of ejecting you from the earth's gravity.
I wonder if I can work this into my life insurance plan?
...that was the source code that was released. Maybe they are going to rewrite it in XML?
I was really looking forward to this game. It looked like it had some real potential. If I am going to invest in a game where i pay fees to pay, I want it to be a stable company with some future.
I think you are being a little too hasty in your outlook for the future. The W3C set the standard of XML, Microsoft cannot patent XML itself, it may patent some specific uses for it but there should be enough prior art to stop them from going too far.
Alternately you could get Bill G, George W and a mad Palestinian in a room to have some fun.

No. Steve Jobs runs a company and doesn't answer to them. He answers to shareholders.
. George Bush is an elected (???) representative of the people and should make time for his people.

How dare that reporter call Steve Wozniak a mouse!!!
They gotta fix the anti-aliasing around his eyes. The jaggies are creating things that look like wrinkles...
How do you pronounce 'solar'? 'So-lah'? If so, then wouldn't 'Solaris' be pronounced 'So-lah-riss'?
If the OS is to be pronounced 'So-lare-iss', shouldn't it be spelt 'Solairis'?
So 1 = 4?
And 2 = 5 if 2 And 2 = 7 if 2 > 2.7?
I get it now...

Go and read this article about one of the creators of Superman.
Nothing a large quantity of duct tape can't get under control.
They got Pamela Anderson's mammaries under control in Barb Wire, gotta take your hat off to the undergarment engineer right there.

When NASA wants to try and buy out the European Space Agency, then you can start making equivalancies between NASA and MS.
Until that point in time, treat NASA with some respect.
Like RAMBUS and SCO?
