YOU were the one who decided that the volatile business model of selling advertising would bring you stable profits
Volatile? This is how television has worked for decades. This model is what pays the stars of the shows millions of dollars per episode. It's hardly volatile.
The interesting thing is, does it really matter if you watch the ads or not? Networks' ad revenue is based on how many people watch a show, which is based on Nielson ratings. It is NOT based on how many people buy something after they see an ad, because that is pretty hard to determine.
So if a Nielson family PVR's a show, it will still show up in it's Nielson rating. Who cares if everyone *else* watches or doesnt watch the ads?
I feel dirty for doing it, but I use the crossover plugin to view quicktime movies (as well as windows media crap). In my experience, it has worked extremely well, and the installation is a snap!

BillG: So, Stan and Herb, I understand you two are working on standards compliance? Stan & Herb (look up from monitors): Yes, we feel its very important to be compliant with all standards. BillG: "Standards", aye? That's very interesting. But would you rather do that all day, or come see what I have parked outside for both of you?

Something like 95% of SUV owners never go off the pavement. So, it really doesn't make a difference if american SUV's are *actually* made for "SUV" use.
With a water cooling system, you need to make sure that the joints between cubes are water-tight
Do you really though? I envision water pouring into the top of one of these cubes through a little funnel, trickling down through the hot places with the aide of gravity alone, and coming out through the bottom through another hole, ready to enter the cube below and do the same thing. At the very bottom of the whole shebang, the water is chilled and pumped back into the funnel of the top cube again.
Better keep each block upright at all times though!:)

Seriously though, you'd think Lucas could think of something else by now. This is what, the 4th arm-cutting incident in the series? With one more movie to go? Come on, use your imagination. You have Jedi to play with! Make them do something new.
