Here is a guy who imagined amazing things and contributed to the start of the computer revolution, and yet..
What does slashdot users do?
ATTEMPT to think up witty and STUPID remarks to get themselves a nice "5 FUNNY" remark in their posts.
Get a grip. Here is a great icon that has passed on.
Why don't you take a moment to admire what he has done instead of being a total fuck?

Hello,
I usually only read here, but I had to contribute as well. I've been working on boxes since I was eight for the last 23 years. Apple, PC's, Windows, blahblah. Even did time with NeXT
(miss my Dimension Cube).
Regardless, I've gotten rid of almost all our PC's and use the Mac for everything. The only thing missed from our G5 and Panther setup is a really good video encoder (ProCoder, etc..).
Otherwise, I get to work, turn it on and everything _just works_ the same everyday. We run a small independent film company.
Costs a little more? Whatever. For the amount of time I would spend fucking with Windows and PC hardware issues everyday, it easily pays for itself.
The software is amazing and the hardware is kickass.
When it was still G4 hardware, I couldn't bring myself to use it. The new hardware introductions (PowerMacs at least) have erased that barrier.
NAB saw new realtime PCI-X HDTV editing solutions for FCP Pro HD, Adobe's updates to their amazing tools, etc.
Couldn't ask for me (but we always do).
Go Apple.

Go check out the Echelon site and you'll notice quite a few other "security systems" working in the best interest of their own countrie(s).
It's not like the U.S. is the only country out there sifting through all the digital noise.
It just happens to have the biggest sifter.
