It will be XML based (i.e. text file with tags), use MIME to encode bitmaps, and be so bloated you will need a 10GHz P5 with 4GB of RAM just to render a rotating "Hello, World!" file...
That is a trade-off of less air pollution from the vehicle no longer running, to polluting the bottom of the cliff with rusted heap of junk...
Which is the lesser evil?
And what if the driver/owner survives and buys another one? Then we have one polluting the air and one polluting the bottom of the cliff...
Me thinks the solution is to throw all owners/drivers of SUV's off of the cliff. This way we have no SUV's polluting the air or the bottom of the cliff...
Yeah, ah flippin' great, a plane full of feckheads yammering out loud on their frickin' cell phones. I think I'm going to check out of this alleged modern society... The amount of intelligence in the universe is a constant - the problem is there are more and more people.
I tell you, am I ever glad that I have unloaded all of my old NVIDIA cards on eBay before this card came out and made everything else worth less $$$...
What is really annoying is the way the SUV the feckhead is driving is weaving all over the highway when said feckhead is flapping his/her gums on the cell phone instead of paying attention to driving.
I read awhile back that your response time when yakking on a cell phone is worse than when you are legally drunk while driving...
In our server-based Java apps, it's always the garbage collection that kills us. We ended up spending a few weeks fiddling with all of the various JVM garbage collection settings to find a one that caused the least amount of harm. When you start re-writing your code so that the garbage collector doesn't affect you as much, you start wishing for a platform (oh, C/C++) where you have far more control over such things...

Surely you jest!
Every time Linus farts, 1001 Linux fan-boys are there to analyze the substance of said statement...

Quiet PCs are easy to cobble up. You can get the necessary bits'n'bobs from http://www.silenx.com/, http://www.zalman.co.kr/ and other vendors...
Kazaa is so last decade, last century - BitTorrent is the current fad. Get with it...
I would hazard to guess that the molecules of this substance do not stick to anything but themselves, as water does.
