I've ordered and installed hundreds of SSL certificates (usually one or two a week). We use GeoTrust for nearly all of our certificates and I have never had any sort of problems. Their turn-around time is very fast too, at least in comparison to VeriSign and Thawte.
Probably the easiest thing you can do to ease the process of ordering certificates is to make sure your domain WHOIS info is up to date. But really, as long as you know what info you want to have on your cert, there isn't much to getting one ordered.
Even if the benefit to writing skills is dubious, this could still be good. It's getting kids interested in being part of an online community, and since netiquette (or whatever you want to call it) will only become more important with, it would be nice to have people understand these things at a young age. Plus, it'll help their typing too.
Well, they already have roads, and motorbikes. Why not use the existing infrastructure? The bikes are going to be a drop in the bucket pollution wise and it would take a lot of biker miles to create as much pollution as construction equipment to bury cable or put up poles.
I didn't have a CD-ROM drive at the time. So I had a friend rip five or so of my CDs and I got them from him at the next LAN party we both attended. It was 97-98ish. CDs were Neurosis, Souls at Zero; The Butthole Surfers, Independent Worm Saloon; The Rollins Band, Weight; and I think Faith No More, Angel Dust.
Could that be for the corporate backers of Linux? If IBM et al. generate marketing hype, but end up with nothing to show for it in the short term, will that hurt future Linux adoption? I doubt it will have much impact on the hobbyist market either way.
This year was kind of hectic, so most of my reading was confined to EVO magazine and text-books. I did get a chance to read some books though. The Rum Diaries, by Hunter S. Thompson was definitely an enjoyable read, some nice escapism, with enjoyable, slightly-debauched characters. Middle East Illusions, by Noam Chomsky was also quite interesting. Obviously people probably know where they stand on this one, but his critique of US foreign policy towards Israel and his suggestions at the motivations behind it are quite interesting, whether you agree or not.
I would assume that when the day comes that you can upgrade the OS on your car's ECU in your driveway, that some of the paperwork you sign for the warranty on your new car is going to get a lot more intricate. I think it would be completely reasonable to have a separate shop-rate for computer-related issues, if it were easy enough for the owner/end-user to change settings.

Actually, this would be my only reason to buy an iPod, just like it was my only reason to buy a RioVolt a few years back.
Yeah, I'd probably buy a Ferrari if I could afford it... Most cars are like that anyway, ODB-II be damned.
