I would rather put the money into making the cars smart enough to drive anywhere and let the roads be dumb.
Autonomous ground vehicles will never be permitted in public spaces thanks to liability concerns. There simply isn't anyone, government included, willing (or able) to accept the ample responsibility.
If we are going to be the military leader, economic leader, and world leader, we should also be the moral leader. To regain moral leadership the international community must trust us again.
The problem with the whole discussion is that military, economic, even "world" leadership are all measured quantities. Morality, however, is always relative in a non-religious context -- the goal of acheiving universal moral leadership is ridiculous.
How do we reconcile the morality of radical Islam with the morality of France?
Now, if he had self-published, set up a website and sold his own DVDs, now that would be worth trumpeting.
Sadly, if he did that, few would have the opportunity to share in even a "corporatized" version of his vision simply because all the trumpeting in the world isn't enough to reach the masses.
Not sure if it is Mattel, but somebody did -- one of those all-in-a-joystick (or controller in this case) things, with about twenty +/- games built-in.
That is pretty much the point of the article. Apple produces a product (hardware and software) that is of a quality higher than many people are willing to pay for.
There are only two or three companies nationwide, capable of "safely salvaging" lead from monitors. Not surprisingly, they fund the political campaigns of those who voted to eliminate the disposal of monitors in landfills.
As someone else has already pointed out, the fact that the legislation does not include leaded glass (crystal glasswear), among other things, calls into question the integrity of those involved and their ultimate motivations.

It's all about distribution.

Precisely.
What does it matter? All the students will be going elsewhere -- to better schools.
...who has a friggin PENTABYTE??
Ah, the irony.
286% more money 1-2% average longer life?
That last year is often so fulfilling too. Are you sure your stats really argue your point?
Didn't they go bankrupt only after Apple decided against continuing to license the MacOS?
That is pretty much the point of the article.

It encourages good citizenship...
Not so much encourages it but demands it.
