Basically the same thing that happened to the US Dollar about a year beforehand. Both currencies have now fallen by much the same amount and the exchange rate is back to what it usually is.
I would be very wary about doing business with someone who had a.biz domain in a way I wouldn't with a.com, as.biz tends to be used by spammers and scammers.
I'm pretty sure I read that ARM ship a billion or so of their chips every year. Of course that may not count as they licence their designs to other companies who actually make the things.
Talking of Coca Cola, if everyone in the world bought a bottle of Coke on average once every 5 years, they would ship a billion bottles a year. I'm pretty sure the figures are much higher than that.
I've seen a Netbook in Carphone Warehouse (owned by Best Buy) that has Ubuntu on it, and one in PC World that has SuSE; so they don't all have useless distros on them, but I guess a lot of people won't understand the difference.
If they don't want to switch from XP to Vista because of compatibility problems, they certainly won't switch to MacOSX or GNU/Linux where they will find even bigger compatibility problems.
HFS+ seems to be the best option. You can get MacDrive for Windows (not free) which provides reasonably decent performance.
Alternatively, there's NTFS. Only problem is that the NTFS3G drivers for Mac have extremely lousy performance. If you use the "stable" drivers, the time to fill a 250GB USB drive is measured in weeks.
The issue is that you can either use the energy source directly, which is always going to be more efficient, or you can use a more efficient method of storage / transfer than hydrogen.
Well the only computer manufacturers who consistently make a profit from making computers are Apple and Dell. Apple because they charge premium prices, and Dell because they cut costs to the bone.

True, but if they grab your gun before you do, then your gun could increase rather than decrease the risk to your safey.
My first cell phone about 11 years ago took AA batteries. Of course, nobody would want to carry round such a brick these days.

You have départments, which are essentially the same thing.
Strange seeing people finding the need to justify having a cell phone, or saying they only got one a year ago.
In Europe, everyone has a cellphone, and there are more cellphones than people. I got my first one about 11 years ago.

How old are you is fine, because the RFID tag can have the best before date on it.
It's OK to use Microsoft Mouse. It's the one thing they are good at.
Intel shipped their billionth chip a few years back. It was reported on /. at the time. ARM sell massively more chips than Intel.
Because Steve Jobs only recently relented and allowed a second button on them. Before the mighty mouse, Apple mice were pretty useless creatures.

See point 7 in your list.
It means that a legal case can be decided on the facts - eg he killed the guy, the jury decides if that fact is true or false
or it can be decided on the law, the judge decides whether or not it is illegal to kill him.

PC World in Britain blamed Vista on their large inventory of unsold laptops.
How good? Evolution connects to exchange as well, and while not perfect, it is almost certainly better than Outlook 2003 running in Wine.
Access is the only office program for which there isn't a viable non-MS alternative, and that's the one that doesn't work in Wine.
I haven't had a problem with Windows crashing since 2000 SP1 came out.
What's wrong with Office 2004 or 2008?
And which websites still use ActiveX? Even www.natwest.com and www.screentrade.co.uk work in Safari these days.
Why? If it's been working for the last 10 years, what's going to change in the next 10 years? Why would they need support.
There are businesses still using NT4 because it works and there's no point changing it.
Does it actually run anything where there isn't a better native alternative available?
You can reliably run Office 2000 Standard Edition - ie Outlook, Word, Excel and Powerpoint, but not Access.
For Outlook, use Evolution, and for the other use OpenOffice.org. There are definitely better than Microsoft's 2000 vintage running in Wine.
Or put it another way.
If they don't want to switch from XP to Vista because of compatibility problems, they certainly won't switch to MacOSX or GNU/Linux where they will find even bigger compatibility problems.
Except for routers. I've not seen an IPv6 compliant router yet. I'm sure they must exist, but you don't see them in the likes of PC World.
But, until ISPs start offering IPv6, an IPv6 ready router isn't going to be much of a selling point.

Provided you put "site:nhs.uk" or something similar at the end of your search query.
You can do this in Google as well.
