Actually it's Halo 2 for the PC that will be Vista only, but I can see where you're coming from. Although saying that, by the time Halo 3 finally does make an appearance on the PC, you'll need to upgrade your copy of Windows yet again if you want to actually play it.
Well they've done movies based on video games, surely it's the turn of OSs. Wouldn't like to see the spec of film projector you'd need to watch Windows Vista: The Movie on though.
Via a browser, they could mean "without plugin" in a browser.
It's likely to be tied directly into IE7 and even more likely to be a Longhorn only feature. What better way to persuade those that want that feature to "upgrade"
They could easily tie this in with GPS controlled pay as you drive car insurance (see http://slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=04/08/21/172220 4). If the unit detects that you're speeding, up goes your insurance premium as well as getting a nice speeding ticket through the post.
It'll only take off properly though once Sony get their act together and finally release a proper PSP web browser. Having to use the WipeOut Pure browser hack every time will get annoying.
I dunno these days they'll diagnose anything as a disease, disorder or syndrome. In fact anyone that hasn't got a syndrome is probably suffering from "No Syndrome Syndrome".
The BBC are currently experimenting with HDTV, but not for broadcast yet I gather. Digital Terrestrial and Satellite are currently their main priorities since the UK Government want the current analogue TV spectrum switched off and used for other purposes such as mobile telephony by 2010 (give or take a few years).
The BBC Motion Gallery project has been live for ages, and is expanding on a regular basis.
The odd one or two of the BBC's radio shows are available as mp3 downloads from their website, although it's usually the programs that aren't commercially much use after broadcast. A good example would be that you can download the latest episode of Five Live's topical sport panel game, Fighting Talk as an mp3, but only stream any of the Radio 4 comedy shows since they can make more money out of those by selling them on CD months after broadcast.
Because vinyl is retro and therefore "cool".
On a similar note to a SACD version, I seem to recall Codemasters back in the very early 90s releasing their entire Dizzy game collection for the ZX Spectrum on an audio CD. You just needed to hook your hi-fi (or if you had one, a portable CD player) up to the speccy with the audio lead you'd normally have connected to a tape player.
There are ways around this little caveat, but the legality of it all is a little questionable. Firstly you need to get hold of a GBA linker and flash cartridge. You also will need download Goomba, a Gameboy emulator for the Gameboy Advance. Use the linker to dump your Gameboy games on your PC, then combine them with Goomba into a.gba or.bin rom file. It's then just a matter of transferring the file to the flash cartridge and you're away.
The person I feel sorry for is the poor so and so who had to list all the entries in the 17 pages comprising Exhibit C. That guy/gal should get a medal.
2.5 gigapixel pictures? We're still a long way off from having digital cameras that can pull this sort of thing off in one shot, rather than stitching one together from composites.

Are you really sure that's satisfaction you're visualising and not dispair caused by yet another website in Comic Sans?
Yes but how many could afford to have a Cray in their bedroom?

Does that make the part where they actually crash the probe into the comet the decommissioning phase? I guess we'll know for sure come July.

Not only that but they'll then fork out the £20 for the DVD box set six months later.

Yes it's a damn shame they had to announce that Ground Force will be axed

Multi Theft Auto anyone?

Marvin'll fit all right, just as long as he's voiced by Stephen Moore.
That was true for the BBC TV series version, but I guess Working Title are allowed a bit of artistic licence.
Where've you been? According to the official Douglas Adams website, Zaphod is Sam Rockwell.
I say "is" as the film's been in post-production since September
This submarine has committed an illegal operation and will now fire all its Trident nuclear missiles.
Scary.
