This is the kind of tech I though RIM would research before jumping the touchy-feelie screen bandwagon. But noooooo, they'd rather the Blackberry be an iPhone me-too...
I suggest using the PMI methodology, as it is the industry standard, it'll add a lot of credibility to your resume, and make life much easier for those who follow your work (co-workers, or the guy replacing you once you brush up that resume with a PMI cert).
Now go research about it, as a good PM needs to be able to do the legwork, too, not just shout orders around.
Wrong. If done properly (especially the cooling), OC'ing does not reduce the useful life of a processor. It is common knowledge that processors come factory clocked lower than its limit.
The problem is the idiots who just put the open case in front of an AC vent, shoot the voltage settings in the BIOS all the way up, and pray for the best.

Training and support, for starters. You're pretty much on your own on these 2 things when it comes to so called "free" software, and the TCO ends up being more expensive than a paid application.
MS Labs have a long history of hit-or-miss projects. Some are great, most are not and get killed off sometime during product development. Let's hope some of them get to see a release date!!

Yes you are. Bezos could be using Amazon's profits to fund Al Qaeda operations for all I care. If the product I want is cheaper than a competitor's, I'll buy from Amazon.
I haven't RTFA, per usual, but I'm sure the study concludes that it's a great idea to search the Internet to see if you have a terrible disease using Windows Live Search.
We're in the midst of a global economic crisis, you know?? Maintaining an offshore host must be quite expensive, especially if there's no local infrastructure to maintain such service.

How long before people start using this new tech to make bogus insurance claims??
Is R&D, marketing, distribution, and profit.
Big deal.
Why is this news again??

Oh nevermind :-)
So you mean to say my brand spanking new SSDs have become obsolete already???
Call me troll, but I've seen several sub-par products that sold well on hype alone. Windows 7 will do just fine, whether it's any good or not.
At least Microsoft's marketing department is doing its job right this time.
Is the red color on the title bar some kind of hidden Soviet Russia joke???
You mean the original Crysis, not Warhead, as the newer game was optimized to run on lesser hardware.
I know because I have both running on a Core 2 Quad Q9550 with 2 GB of 1333 MHz DDR3 and a Geforce 9800GT. Warhead runs smoother on higher settings.
Little people usually know more about PCs than their parents.

"We've released this project at an early, research stage to get feedback from the security and broader open-source communities."
Just slap a "Beta" on it and move on, that's the Google way, right?

Hey, I was using a Slot A Athlon until last week, you insensitive clod!!
Now it's Core 2 Quad bliss!!!

Wake me up when Apple puts it in the next iPhone.
No, it just means you're gay.

You mean like Windows?? TPB 1337 h@x0rz got around that just fine.
Maybe outsourcing the US military to China wouldn't be a bad thing after all.
Today the terrorist CAN get hazardous chemicals.
Enough said.
The election is done and over with. You can sleep now. [2]
And how exactly is this "News for Nerds" or, most importantly, "Stuff that Matters"????
Unless your business strategy involves some future negotiations with Microsoft.
