The only issue there is getting it to be supported on Windows. Grandma wants to plug her memory card/flash drive into any computer and have it "just work". If M$ doesn't give in and support the OSS FS, it'll be a tough battle.
If GPS makers, music player manufacturers et al start using a different filesystem because FATxx is patent-encumbered, Microsoft won't have a lot of choice.
You aren't going to be playing Duke Nukem Forever anytime soon
True, but that has nothing to do with the processing power that you can fit into a phone. Chances are that we'll get 80fps on Crysis on a mobile phone before DNF is even released.
Meanwhile, here in Esperance, we are having hot spells interspersed with stupid amounts of rain, making the farmers who are still trying to harvest increasingly annoyed...
Something that bothers me about TFS is the phrase "I could care less". I'm hearing it a lot from people inside the USA these days, and I'd like to remind the general population there that the actual phrase is "I couldn't care less".
"I could care less" is at best completely useless to say, and more often, completely nonsensical, as the user means that they don't care, which is clearly the opposite of what it actually means.

Seriously - they patented such things like:
"Vehicle Computer System with Wireless Connectivity"
"Portable Computing Device-Integrated Appliance"
Well, at least you can't patent generic or obvious ideas.
Wait...

Yes, this irritates me as well. Also, which genius decided that, if I want inline divs, that I don't need to be able to set an arbitrary width?
You got married on Christmas?
and the idiot that wrote that terrorists could use coal ash to build nukes.
You've got to have something to draw your plans with...
I think you do with the iPhone...
Oh really? Can you please point out where it says that in the TOS?
TOS? Are you kidding? We don't even read TFS...
I'm still undecided, so I'll go with the majority on this call...
Posting here to undo accidental "-1 Redundant" moderation - meant to say "insightful".
I wish they would fix this issue :/
This definitely comes under "Stuff that Matters(TM)".
think of the 2005 London transport bombers and the 9/11 terrorists -- police are often able to identify suspects without the cameras.
...and shoot them multiple times in the head as they board the subway!
Wait...
I don't know where our cat was taught, if she was taught (we got her at a young age). She's pretty good at catching mice and birds though.
The only issue is that she likes to bring them into the house to show them off before they are dead, and sometimes loses them again...

Hell froze over?
1) Release source code
2) Competition disappears as they die from laughter
3) Profit
No ??? required.

Nice. Thanks for the link.

I think it snowed in Tasmania in December...
Not to be a wet blanket for your argument, but this is being tried on drug-resistant HIV patients.
