Bring games(good, mainstream, "Triple A" titles) to Linux and people will start using Linux.
Bring people to Linux and game makers will start producing/porting games to Linux.
2TB??? Sounds like someone could have gotten the translation between Tiawanese and English wrong. They probably meant 2GB instead of 2TB. 2GB is still worthy of publication, but more within reason and possiblibity than 2TB.
At the company we work for we must preappend a 4 digit number(one that only we know) to the start of every secureID value. However, this is besides the point. If you let someone borrow your secure ID, this is no different than letting someone use your account/traditional password, you should know full well what company/security policy this violates. You can never protect a system under this type of scenario. The scenario that a secure ID token does provide protection against is the ones where an user might write down his/her password, forgetting the password, making a easy to crack password, etc.
because prions are more basic and fundamental than even germs/viruses. most modern methods of treating diseases and fighting virus involve disrupting the replication process of the virus/germs, usually by the means of inhibiting certain proteins. however prions themselves are malformed proteins that malform other good proteins. this mechanism is quite hard to stop because it is so simple, there is no complicated repoduction chain to disrupt like a virus. there is only one way to stop this chain, which is to basically burn the protein to a crisp.
did you also notice that the liquid cpu heat sinks are connected in a series(vs. in parallel), this basically means the heated coolant from the first cpu is flowing to cool the second cpu... basically one cpu will always run warmer than the other, lets hope that's not the cpu that does all the work.

the problem with electro-photocells right now are that they take quite a lot of energy(fossil fuels) to manufacture. For instace, 90% of the cost of the aluminium used in making wind powered generators are for the electricity to cover bauxite(aluminium ore) into aluminium metal through electrolisis. It currently takes 17000 kWh of electricity(http://www.newton.dep.anl.gov/askasci/ chem99/chem99461.htm) to make 2000 pounds of aluminium metal.. where do we get that electricity from?(hint.... fossil...)
here's an idea for high end digital SLRs:
camera makers should make SLR bodies with user replaceable/upgradeable CCD/CMOS image sensors. A sensor module would contain the actual CCD/CMOS array along with an intergerated control chip that would provide the camera body with information about the sensor itself and the actual image data. The user can open up the camera as if he or she was loading traditional film in the back of a film camera and upgrade to a higher megapixel image sensor or switch between various sensor technologies(ie. CCD, CMOS).
since professional digital cameras usually cost a whole lot of money(Canon 1Ds - $8000) and become obselete just as fast as computer equipment, this idea would give consumers and professionals ways to upgrade their camera's capabilities(i.e. to higher mega pixels) easially.
