No, the idea is that ceramic has a fantastic refractive index (2.08 compared to 1.5-1.85 for glass) so the lenses can be thinner. So the camera can be smaller. So you can take it with you more and take more pictures. So... *voice fades away*

You know the way some viruses appeared in the wake of Blaster, that actually uninstalled Blaster so they can take control? Well, what I say is, why not make counter-viruses like these, that do only this nice part (skipping the take-control one). If somebody's computer has a security hole that can be used for infection, then it can be used for disinfection as well.:)
A sort of "Protect yourself, or we'll do it for you..."
Actually, Mandrake having jumped at the 2.4.21 UNSTABLE kernel was a mistake!
If you try to use TotalView (a commercial graphical debugger) in Mandrake 9.1 you'll see there's a bug in the kernel that makes TotalView crash on startup! And there's nothing you can do about it except hand-patch the kernel and recompile (ewh).
Pretty nasty thing to have around your kernel. Bob knows where else the bug could show up!

You don't have to launch 'em fat. You can feed them in a space station, where it's easi(er) to get food to. Then send 'em rolling to Mars!
Here's an idea. Tell me what you think:
