Actually Sony removed The Other Os (TM) after Geohot published his bus attack (requiring disassembly of the console and randomly poking at data lines while running the exploit).
Yes, a couple one-off designs founded by the tax payer. As for how it compares? Once you don't have to worry about mass production, I'm sure it blows hasselblad away (btw - who manufactures sensors for hasselblad?)
Wrong. Microsoft HW division has been churning out pretty much impressive stuff for years by now. Zune/Zune HD HW-wise hasn't been too shabby efforts ether.
don't forget that this takes away for you a chance to trade out if shit hits the fan. So, you'll be scaling back on non-essential items (and nether house, nether car is a necessity - place to live in and means of transportation are) and keeping your reserves in more liquid form. Good for savings. Under your mattress. Pretty bad for the way the economy operates now.
Quants have been publishing their insights quite openly for a while now (Ed Thorpe, in example is often credited to have kicked it all off). It's not the idea itself, it's the execution and finding those 2-3bn to kickstart the operations.
Yeah, Nokia phones have had flash (lite fiascos) for at least 4 years by now. Completely unusable, no wonder nobody has cared about it in even the slightest.
I heard from a guy with some aircraft specialist know-how that 1982 engine re-start was in fact a fluke that shouldn't have happened given the conditions...
Well, there isn't all that much in flash you cannot achieve in Mobile Safari. Yes, there are tricks around the different versions, but Steve has nicely said - play there, do whatever you want. The big problem is that users would become used to the apps sucking. And yes, flash apps in browser or standalone does suck more (up to 99% more) than native apps. Or even carefully coded html+js/html5. Giving mom and pop some flash throw-together tool so that they can produce their badly scaled pieces of constantly looping crap (and I don't mean UI, I mean people that aren't aware on how to use basic queue or loop in a thread waiting for external event without using yield()), will be a PR disaster. Whether they allow the steamy piles of flashy crap on market (thing android market) or if they don't ("ooh, and I sooo put almost 3 hours in it and this learn flash in 24 minutes book").
I am a mobile developer. It still astonishes me that people don't demand the same polish and experience from other platforms. They feel, they know that what they are give is wrong, but they are so used to it, they cannot formulate it. And then comes that sexy niece with her flashy iphone that kinda sorta you know - works.

For an interesting account - find a copy of The Big Breach online. Secrecy et. al.

if you want to treat you mobile phone as a computer running Unix based OS why don't you get crapdroid^HAndroid?
There is something seriously wrong with people that try to mate the two rather opposing concepts here.

Uhm? No. The Goverment just has a copy of every conv shipped to them directly from exchange.
I can only imagine "Absolutely!" said in Moria Browns' voice!
Yeah, the HFT quants screwed up pretty badly. In 1929, in example...

and crashed just as spectacularly too, in the past.

yeah, works well on my t-mobile HTC Hero...
The worst bit is that I can actually imagine that such a workflow MIGHT work...
Take a look at actual revenues made, I suspect you'll find those numbers revealing ;)
uhm? Are you sure they have to pull them back?
That would be a bit against the way lottery math works.
HW by M$ generally are excellent pieces of kit.
Go figure.

RT kernel in linux? Where?

I agree.
How is that different from group policy now?
(kick off usb storage drivers towards the stairwells, disable usb hubs)
Ish, at the expense of quite a few hacks and low-level mongering. :)
But yeah, it was brilliant. Teapot on a VESA card (sniffs at the memories)
Just a quick slip of a sign. Of securities grading.
Nothing to worry about, just a bloody sunday.

I hope that it ends with QuickTime losing and being taken over to be dissolved. :)
