Last year I read an interesting article reporting on a tour of Abit's Motherboard factory. Although this story seems more comprehensive you might want to check it out anyway.
The systems would still be vulnerable with no patch available. The administrators might not know there was a vulnerability but an attacker may know about it.
Keeping it a secret might put you at a greater risk - you don't know you might be in trouble but the bad people know about the problem.
So reducing the number of people who know about the problem could make it worse rather than better.

Less Might Be More

I use a VIA EPIA 5000 Fanless Motherboard with a 533mhz CPU as a silent X terminal with a more powerful workstation in another room doing all the work.
I couldn't do this with a desktop P4 or Athlon XP processor etc since they get too hot to passively cool. So for this computer at least, less definitely is more.
From the article: "Many UK ISPs already close 'spamvertised' websites under their terms of service", the same way you have apparently been doing it, so no they aren't 'just catching on'.
Also from the article:
"The new BCP (Best Current Practice) will raise the baseline, making the worldwide acceptable minimum standard tougher. We will be working to spread this standard beyond the UK and asking for support from the UK government at WSIS"
This is the interesting bit - I seems like a step in the right direction. If enough ISPs band together like this it will be increasingly difficult (sure not impossible - but harder) for ISPs to offer shelter to spam outlets.
Some airlines require ID for domestic flights in the UK. One theory is that they want to stop people from buying lots of cheap "£1" tickets uses by the airline as a marketing ploy and then selling them on to random people for a profit. Rynair is an example.
If web devlopers use these technologies to enhance their sites, users with browsers that can't handle CSS or PNG correctly wont see pages which are necessarily as pretty or functional as they would with a more compliant browser. If the gap gets big enough and is publicised I think at least some people would change browser.
"...Microsoft definitely has Mozilla beat when it comes to the efficiency of updates like this..."
I agree with the gist of your reply but I think you are comparing apples and oranges in your last sentance. You contrast the method Mozilla - a stand alone piece of software uses for updates to an those of a vendor of an integrated OS Microsoft (Windows). It would be fairer then to look at the solution one of the major Linux distros uses and compare it to Windows update.
In that case say for Gentoo you can do "emerge sync; emerge mozilla" etc...
We use Debian on our production kit. I would not like to 'chase' versions with apt daily, weekly or monthly. To us having a stable set of boxes is extremely important, an official release is a big deal to us and the long term plans for our servers are based on these releases.
I used to do apt-get dist-upgrade all the time on my workstation but it is not acceptable for some computers.
I noticed this too, but after a bit of googling I found out probably why it's not on that list:

An electronic musical instrument is a musical instrument that produces its sounds using electronics. In contrast, the term electric instrument is used to mean instruments whose sound is produced mechanically, and only amplified electronically - for example an electric guitar.
The NASA Transhab design uses "multiple layers, which consist of Mylar, Kevlar, Nextel and foam rubber, provide better protection from micrometeorites than a metal shell."
I was at a festival this weekend where they had the sms txt screen going on. If they did filter it I didn't notice it - there were some racial ones that raised a few eye brows.
Couple of doctors thoughts
Snipped from that page: ...Right now, OLED displays are commercially available in cell phones and car radios with lifetimes over 10,000 hours...
If they have to vent tritium (used in the reaction) and you are are you are near enough to breath it in you will be somewhere between deeply fscked and completely fscked. This is why everyone stays inside when they are running experiments:)

I have some pictures from when I visited the Deutsches Technikmuseum Berlin a few months ago on my moblog 23-07-2004. They also have loads of Zeus stuff, it is a seriously cool, well worth a visit.

Not any more it doesn't. In the new Doctor Who the Daleks _will_ have legs! read for yourself

My understanding is that the modules have a metal docking collar at one end as shown in these two pictures:

There is quite a bit of info out there about the Transhabs, NASA are taking this quite seriously.

Well I for one have enough computers that opening my electricity bill is a fairly scarey experiance. Maybe that's why... :)

the plasma constantly bumps into the container
One reason the next machine will be larger is because it is easier to control the plasma (shown by the work done at JET).
If anyone is interested there is a wealth of information on JETs website
Including some pretty cool pictures of their kit.
I haven't managed to get all of the last image yet but I will update it as and when I do.
/. it :)
