But maybe it really is the subsequent kids who need the above mentioned devices. As my wife said recently: "It'll be good when we have more kids – then we don't have time for accidentally waking them up all the time while checking if they are allright."
I moved from Debian to OS X (Tiger) in 2006 because I wanted to try Mac and didn't have the time to tinker with a Linux desktop to make it work. Being tired of not being able to upgrade my programs anymore (e.g., being stuck with Firefox 3.6) and unwilling to buy an OS X upgrade I installed Ubuntu on my Macbook in 2011.
I still use Ubuntu and can't imagine going back. But that's probably because of the tools I use: I think installing and using, e.g., open source programming tools and LaTeX is more streamlined in Linux than Mac.
No. http://images.apple.com/legal/sla/docs/macosx107.pdf: "The grants set forth in this License do not permit you to, and you agree not to, install, use or run the Apple Software on any non-Apple-branded computer, or to enable others to do so."
In 10.4, on the other hand, it's not explicitly stated, only implied: "This License allows you to install and use one copy of the Apple Software on a single Apple-labeled computer at a time."
No, if you buy quality brands, take a little care and, probably most importantly, are lucky, that happens.
I'm writing this on my 7 year old MacBook 1.1 (HD is 4 years old, replaced because the old one was too small, not because it failed). Before that I owned a Toshiba Satelite Pro for 6 years. And I'm using my laptop throughout the day allmost every day because I'm a student and programming hobbyist and I don't own a stationary.
I may have prioritized wrong by buying expensive stuff and using them long after they are outdated, but I certainly have used them.
In an older test (http://archive09.linux.com/articles/42031) the most succesful virus managed to go into an endless loop, actually having negative performance influence on Linux – until Ctrl-C was hit.
In Denmark we have a login system (NemID) which is needed to log in to all home-banking systems and all government websites like administration of taxes, social security etc. The login is done with a Java applet (which doesn't even work in OpenJDK, only Oracle).
Whether virus has a morphologically marked plural in latin is debatable. The discussion you link to claims that "virus" is a 4th declension noun, but all dictionaries I've checked (including Oxford!) says it's a 2nd declension noun.
Anyway, "virus" is a neuter, not masculine noun, which means that the latin plural (if it really is 2nd declension) is not "viri" ("virii" does not make sense to me; is it an anglicism?), but "vira", which btw is well established as an alternative to "virus", at least in Denmark.
Ironically, AppleScript, which apparently tries to be "human friendly", is the first programming language I've tried where I gave up figuring out how to do some simple operation that looks alike in all other languages (some string operation, I think it was), even after searching the documentation. I now believe OSA really is an acronym for Obnoxious Syntax Abomination.
True, but sometimes people do follow lines of thought that can be taken ad absurdum. I believe the line is often drawn at what is immediately inituive, for example the immediate risk of contamination (or at least most of us are brought up to wash our hands and dress wounds). That you may or may not catch a flu may be percieved as a more remote threat. I do not claim that this line of thought is 100% coherent; all I know is that there are actually people who refuse e.g. ensurance for this reason.
I'm also baffled by this. The only reason I can think of (except them being in Christian Science) is that she follow the same line of thought that leads some (and I stress: SOME) protestants to have issues with contraceptions and/or ensurance: By taking such precautions you don't trust God to do what's best for you.

PHP is not cheaper to host than Python, Perl, Ruby, etc.
So you know a company that offers Python hosting for under $2 a month? Please link.
In that case, may I suggest: Ceterum censeo beta esse delendum
Maybe, but I read that for the very same reasons many teenagers has begun to abandon Facebook.
They also deleted his Facebook profile ... oh wait, they can't.

Citing your source it was for "minor misdemeanors, including watching videos of South Korean television programs or possessing a Bible."
No no no, it's too intuitive that Google is 1 and Apple is 0! You should swap them!
That won't work for including LyX documents. However, there is a command for this in LyX (Insert > File > Child Document) – no scripting needed.
Did you just compare lawsuits and malaria?
How do you know that he expected them to learn LaTeX? Were in the summary and the linked ./ article does he write that?
Just don't upgrade to version 3.10, then you can still round up and say, "I'm roughly running version 4".
The algorithm that reads all my email already told them.

Sorry, but I don't understand how you compare these cases. Can you explain what the similarity is, please?

That's only a problem if you close all the old power plants and plan to use 100% solar and wind energy. And that's not what we're talking about.

But that is not an -ii suffix. It's still an -i suffix (Pri-us, Pri-i)!
