Even if personally not ready (both because of cost and technical reasons) to run OS X on servers, I would have to provide support for easy Window-type Unix system
In fact we already considered Linux migration but stopped because of time needed to learn all windows intricacies and application compatibility problems (just three: SwissPDBViewer, BioEdit and MS Office).
I agree with the previous post.
Now only way to go is to choose supported distro or buy support.
The future is in Debian-based, but corporate-supported distros. It is cheaper for support-provider (than rolling your own) and provides richer experience.
The "marketing name" should be easy to remember and have unique association with the project. "Sunbird" is just one rare word. Everybody talks about "Sunbird calendar app" anyway, so why to increase the length of name?
Maybe it would be better to standarize on cryptographic keys and enhance browser so as to automatically encrypt all connections to the chosen site.
It acknowledges your identity, you can have different keys for different sites
and you can have single password for store of crypto keys.
Being an engineer doesn't preclude being a good UI designer. It is just orthogonal, so it is less probable to find human that has both skills.
Of course it doesn't mean all engineers admit they are bad in UI. Many bright people feel it hard to admit their skills are limited;-).
Your personality: emotions and motivations are much more important than brightness.
As you are bright you can more easily learn how to handle them. So develop them a lot.
They are the key to success or at least a happy life.
Stuff like this can be bought from at least three sites:

If it's not yet there, you can always mail them, and ask when it will be available...
Would prefer A300 with Bluetooth and Lithium-Polymer batteries. These c7xx come close in features, but look how thick they are! (.9" or 23mm for the bigger model.)

Unfortunately most small and portable military technologies did, didn't they?
Except for nuclear (so far), but this one is easily detected by radiation.
I'm not against super-fuel-cells, but don't want to be cookedI agree with the previous post.

I think, the matter is to get industry to pay EC in a try to settle.
Past investigation of Microsoft finished with exactly such a settlement
You forget that it is risky and politically sensitive bussiness. It is a bit unsafe to have profit of.
They prefer to keep reputation of honest high-tech enterprise.
By now an "artificial neural network" is to brain, as "hello world" program to an application development platform with os included.
And when you reach proper level of complexity they just become harder to build and understand (not that we always known how they REALLY work).
So please: keep with tools that we can still understand - they are EASIER TO USE!The "marketing name" should be easy to remember and have unique association with the project.

...with terminal illnesses would see it as tremendous increase as well.
EXACTLY: I much prefer e-mail over SMS... :->.
It easier to type
I wonder if Brown can be sued if he lies outright and has no way to prove his claims? The book he writes is not a fiction...
...United States Patent and Trademark Office, an internationally respected agency...
PS My favourite part of Brown's response is:
...bed or comfortable armchair is a must!
Maybe it would be better to standarize on cryptographic keys and enhance browser so as to automatically encrypt all connections to the chosen site. It acknowledges your identity, you can have different keys for different sites and you can have single password for store of crypto keys.
...in the world where so many people would never make an effort to learn new work environment.

The reason is that most people PREFER not buy power-saving notebooks, which easily sport 7h of battery power... :-)
Your own choice...

...or not. Many other factors decide on the battlefield. And not all soldiers are able to use their equipment with same efficiency.
2cm?! If only it would be a bit thinner...
It was not a plain deal. It is generally considered a M$ victory in Europe: look at article of FFII site.
