If you kill the engine, the power assist dies too. Obviously that can cause a serious accident. Limiting the car to 750rpm (idle speed) may be a better idea.

SQL Ledger is a PostgreSQL and Apache application. It doesn't matter what your accountant runs on his computer. Assuming that your accountant has a computer and some sort of an internet browser then she would be OK. Also, your accountant could work from her office downtown or from her laptop at home and doesn't have to drive to your shop anymore - just courier the accountant a box full of paper.

Also, note that any accounting package is pretty much like any other accounting package, since they are all machine implementations of paper ledgers. Accountants switch between accounting programs as easily as typists switch typewriters.
I think porn is a larger driver behind Windows than games. Just plug a Windows machine into the net and after about ten minues, you get free porn streaming in. Plug a Linux machine into the net and nothing happens...
There are distributions that do exactly what you want: a. Novel Corporate Desktop b. Mandriva Corporate Desktop c. Ubuntu d. Xandros e. Linspire f. Puppy g. DSL etc.
Well damn, then learn to spell on your Dell order. Dell will supply anything - Windows, Linux, DOS, even your own preconfigured homebrew OS if you supply them with a disk drive to duplicate.
So, your solution would be to buy one desktop and one server - configure them the way you want - copy the disk drives and send them to Dell and ask them to make more. Then when you receive the machines, they all work out of the box.
So use Gimp and SQL Ledger. If you go to the bother of switching to a better OS, you should also consider switching to better applications. What is the point to keep running the same old shit?
Analogue phones can be recorded even when on hook. Digital phone systems have special codes to allow the spooks to listen in.
I've been in the phone recording industry for a few years and in a big Telco before that. So, if you were wondering how I know that - I used to design and build the stuff...
Hmm, though you are assuming that there is a point to religion - a powerful assumption.

Religious shamans have been with us since time immemorial. Do this, don't do that, eat this, don't eat that, wear this, don't wear that, have sex now, don't have sex now. What is modern or post modern about Inquisitions?

Clearly you have never actually shot at anything with a real rifle. To get a ricochet you not only need to hit something bloody hard (armour plate), but the thing must also be very well restrained or very massive.
With a military rifle, you can shoot clean through a railway track - no ricochet. You can similarly shoot through a 2" slab of concrete, or a 10" tree.
Ricochets mostly happen in Hollywood movies. In real life, most bullets and debris keep going generally forwards.
Most people have a telephone right next to their computer. Any telephone mic can be enabled remotely. It is only Hollywood spies who have to go and plant bugs - real spies just turn the phone on remotely.
That is an old trick used by every seasoned industrial designer. When you design something new, always give people something obvious to bitch about. Otherwise, they will bitch about something important that is hard or impossible to change.
The US (or any other country really) has trouble handling a single hurricane. What do you think will happen if the US, Canada and Mexico has 5 nuked cities?
It will take weeks before ANY help will arrive from another continent and the town halls won't be exactly overflowing with volunteers to go into hot zones either.
Britain, France and China can easily put the US in its place if need be.
How did the Yankees win? Was it a fair fight or did they also burn everything down and put women and children in concentration camps? These kind of things don't get into history books - tends to stay in the family albums, so I honestly don't know.

Job preservation. You only need half as many people to run Linux workstations. IT staff would be stupid to promote Linux - got to eat...

Hell's bells - trusted monitor - are you serious? I can't believe what people would put up with.
...but religion has always been like that. It is nothing new. Religion is corrupt by definition, since it is a con.
Yes, but you are clearly not in the USA, so your experience doesn't count... ;-)
People will use whatever comes with the PC in the shop.

I'll concede that pea-shooters are dangerous and don't run with scissors...
My dad recounted that he learned not to shoot at tree trunks with his airgun, when a bullet hit him on his forehead.

Hmmm - no more cartoons for the kids. I guess they haven't consulted with Disney or Warner yet.

It is perfectly fine for underground power lines - Oh, yeah, the US is a bit backwards - sorry...

Good idea. With an Opteron processor, you can eliminate the magnetron and generate the microwaves from a 1/4 sine wave look-up table... ;-)
