I know this may be modded as flamebait, but if they didn't want to pay for a MicroSoft license, there's no playing the PocketPC market. And maybe they just didn't see a market for a linux organizer.

Geek Jokes are such an important driving factor in improving technology- jokes and Slashdot posts, of course!;-l
Haliburton bought the company (companies?) that many of the largest class action asbestos lawsuits have been brought against. In fact Haliburton's stock value has suffered quite a bit because of the large payouts it will have to make. The War on Terrorism will ultimately help pay for those asbestos lawsuits. Truth is stranger than fiction.
You've been arguing with unemployed, less-educated commoner, who lives right outside of Cambridge. Actually I used to work at Sage Jr convenience store! You'd better move on with your superior intellect, you're obviously too important to assocciate with me.
I'm beginning to enjoy this. I have to take your word for your position... but I don't really care (whose on a high horse?) Yeah, I've looked it up, but aren't you just as lazy for not providing a specific point, with the relevent information? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gene"Because each discipline models the biology of life differently, the material entity that supports the gene in one discipline is not the same as in the other."
Maybe you don't understand English very well then. Give me a definition for a gene! You know, genes gentics. Or perhaps you've come to beleive in your own money-raising public relations bullshit. I don't suppose you could've given a link to dbSNP.
Specifically I was thinking you could not physically "burn disks." I'm a little fuzzy about when Laserdisks came out vs Beta and VHS players. I also just cannot imagine at what point the entertainment industry operated with any immunity from piracy, and what "recover ground" to might refer too.
Unless they're thinking of the old Laser Disks, I'm not sure what copy-protection enforcement they ever had. Cassette tape copying has been around a lot longer than twenty years. I used to copy music from vinyl record albums unto tapes, (without legal protection!) Its always been a matter of technology catch-up and it will continue to be in the foreseeable future
I spent a while trying to figure how you went from an estimate to 10 years to eleven... before I realized It was your sig (perhaps referencing Spinal Tap?) Be careful with a sig like that!
Oops! BTW I can't help but wonder if there's some weird cosmic link. Anyways, here's a little factoid to go with my mispelling.
"The group went through several name changes, surviving monikers like Johnny and the Moondogs, the Beatals, the Silver Beetles, the Silver Beats, and the Silver Beatles, before eventually settling on the Beatles."http://www.recmusicbeatles.com/public/fil es/bbs/name.html
Actually I'm in Psychology! Years ago sociobiology was really exciting field for me, but I've moved on. Are you spouting terms like "dbSNP" to impress me?- There are lie, damed lies, and statistics...
For "conquering the planet" and "taming the forces of nature" I'd say the ants have far surpassed us. For sheer biomass and diversity, check out the info on beatles. We definitely have it all over the other primates, though. Humans rock!
That figure is out of context. There is a 1.4% difference in DNA. Genes are an abstraction of inheritable traits. Without knowing specifically which combinations of of DNA sequences produce specific inheritable traits, there is no way to calculate percentages.
part of the problem is the difference between DNA and "gene." A gene is an abstraction. Some human genetic material is actually contained in mitochondria which is passed down from maternal circulatory system and has nothing to do with DNA. Ignore the fools who quote percentages of genetic similarities.
I though you were either coldcold or TFGeditor who said solar meant no external power source (in this context) Oh well, at least it's nice to know someone else replies to old posts! I thought it might only be me.

solar (slr)
ADJECTIVE:
1. Of, relating to, or proceeding from the sun: solar rays; solar physics.
2. Using or operated by energy derived from the sun: a solar heating system.
3. Determined or measured in reference to the sun: the solar year.
I thought this might aggrevate, er... entertain you!;-)
I've always wished Windows would do verbose boot by default! I find nothing more disconcerting than having a Win system hang at boot with nothing but a damn logo to look at!
Its cultural. On the other side of the coin, the Japanese don't get many sports themed games, while games like Madden 200* are bestsellers in the US. Unfortunately most publishers are going for big blockbuster sales, which means less thinking "outside the box."

I'd guess that its mostly a problem with the English language, rather than technology knowledge. Here's another better written article http://arstechnica.com/news.ars/post/20050220-4632 .html

So now MicroSoft will have a monopoly on spyware too! Oh Great. ;-)

Its a joke, damnit. Not a good joke, but its still only a joke

Grammer mistakes too. BTW I wouldn't necessarily eliminate myself from the pool of fools to ignore.

"Why wouldn't SBC value these archives?" Why would anyone burn the Library of Alexandria? Expect the worst, hope for the best.
