quite correct the thousands is far more important than the cents, however 13,810.00 is really close to 13,000.81 right. it has all the same numbers in a similar order.
Banks calculate out to the tens of thousands of a place simple because you need that much for rounding errors. heck in my business most items are priced out to the ten of thousands of place, getting pricing like $121.3456 for a cost.
actually with that FOSS is your friend. Open Office works better with Office 97 documents than MSFT word 2007 does. Up until at least 2003 a lot of legal departments were using Corel office as that is what they had all their stuff for the past decade.
you want to open tons of random and obscure formats then only FOSS apps supports them all. Comapnies that are stuck with MS Office are begiinng to realize that archiving it requires tons of secondary apps that either cost lots of money or FOSS products that can be upgraded to new hardware/software combinations faster and with minimal effort.
You have a format that only worked in Red Hat 5.0's version of star office. you have the source. you can pay someone to install that app to run, or pull out the format from the source and make a converter for it.
When office 95 doc's don't open for you right you can only beg MSFT to fix it, or try to manually convert them all, however they are giant binary blobs.
How many computers do you own each with their own monitors? and 300 million was so 2000 it is closer to 325 now. In my home there are thee adults and one child, there are three tv's, 6 monitors, not including my smart phone.
odd I consider rule number one to look at how you can abuse and misuse something and badly as possible and see if you still like it.
If people thought of that before passing laws like the DCMA, or patriot act, or unlimited warentless wiretapping then maybe the consequences would be known.
Crap I do a hundred megs a month on the 3G connection on my iPhone. Let alone wifi usage with it. That is just browsing tech sites. The average web site is nearly a meg in size so you can't visit more than 100 websites a month.
1) google depends on ads but search isn't their only product.
2) Intel designs many different kinds of microprocessors. sure they are all based off of x86, but they are lot's of different features and no one of them drives all 50% of their revenue. They are also constantly improving them and don't let them stagnate for 6 years.
3) you do realize exxon will be out of oil in another 40-50 years right?
yes, and yes. Google is using their own jabber transport to talk with aim servers. you can use it from the web based mail client, that I know of and use.
yahoo doesn't support MSN with OSX only Windows. It has been in beta for a couple of years now.
Is it itunes fault is country laws(USA Germany, France,etc) forbid such things ? Just because you Are an American doesn't give you the right to playmusic, videos, even newspapers that are banned in the country your currenrtly in.
your quite right. though I don't worry about fresh water. I sit at the edge of Lake Ontario. If worst things come I can just start charging enough to build an army to defend the great lakes. Sometimes living in the right spot is good. while not limitless, it can support several large populations, and is itself a reservoir with the infrastructure in place to use it.(wisely is another choice)
well blaming apple isn't the solution. ichat uses AIM, jabber and bonjour.
yahoo and aim don't mix.
yahoo and MSFT work
Gtalk works with aim, and jabber, with limited video supports. MSFT won't work Im with aim, and video isn't going to be supported while ballmer is still around.
if your configuration management is worth it's weight, then it already has both the cname's and what they do. Simply opening up your configuration management, should be able to tell you everything that each server is does, and if it is setup right the software it should be running. of course that is if the previous lazy admin actually did their paperwork.
Don't take this personally but pull your head out of your ass. Does windows live messenger do aim? How about gtalk? None of the major IM companies support anything other than themselves. Same thing with ms office which gives half ass support to ODF.
All closed source software companies do this. If you are surprised by it then you are being ignorant.
While I happen to agree. That same kid is more likely testing and talking to their friends instead of their parents. They are the ones who talk in theaters.
However neither should be in theaters. As it would be a good place to take hostages or trap people.
You 99%correct. Wars are normally fought over resources. It was land as farms weren't that good. Near Future wars will be over oil. Howver far into the future the mainstay resources will shift. Currently oil literally drives us. It used to be food(people, horses,etc). It will probably be the element that enables FTL.
No but the GP is close. The power company does look for odd balancing issues vs power usage. People who grow large quanities of dope tend to be a bit stupid and cheap. Including putting a couple thousand watts of lights on a single circuit in their basement. The in balanced loadis noticed by the power companies. Normally as long as you pay your bill they don'tcare. However the stupid and cheap part comes into play. They forget to pay their bill. And police eventually get called.
I know of several arrsetts over the years from just such situations.

um there has been massive amounts of changes to the x86 design line over the last 20 years too.
To the point where they are almost superficially x86.

you do realize very few USB ports provide enough power for hard drives right? It isn't just apple but, dell, and HP too.
external flash drives will work. As they don't have motors which require power.
Crap I do a hundred megs a month on the 3G connection on my iPhone. Let alone wifi usage with it. That is just browsing tech sites. The average web site is nearly a meg in size so you can't visit more than 100 websites a month.
Just remember one YouTube video is sevral megs.
That's right because only bullies can bring peace. Just ask Stalin how killing people leads to stability.

if MSFT didn't have office and Windows, the rest of their products wouldn't be able to keep ballmer afloat let alone MSFT.
OS X has two versions. Server and regular. Even most Linux distro's are broken into two groups server and workstation.
32 bit, 64 bit shouldn't matter to the end user. The OS should handle that by itself. Of course msft isn't that good.
yes, and yes. Google is using their own jabber transport to talk with aim servers. you can use it from the web based mail client, that I know of and use.

heck I am waiting for the USA government to admit they screwed up once, then hell really will be frozen over.
not to dodge your sarcasm, but the scientific findings are vague enough to blame the entire quake on Bush bombing people in iraq.
you never know what that one last MOAB will really do what with the butterfly effect and everything.
also if a quake hasn't happened in a million years then it just might be under a lot of stress, that doesn't easily go away.
New uniforms do have built in toriquits. It is one of the design features.
The foot soldier may get bottom of the barrel stuff but it is one heck of a barrel to begin with.

Well the short way is to setup a quick encyption scheme for yourself. That way google can't search them at random.
I will only trust the cloud when I can step out of an airplane and walk.
Any business that relies on one outside company exclusively is stupid.
