The reason why Dell's monitors are good is because they aren't made by Dell. Your monitor was actually made by Samsung. They also rebrand BenQ and LG monitors.
Your information is out of date. Telus, Rogers, and Bell all charge for incoming texts since 2008. Koodo (Telus subsidiary) charges, but Fido (Rogers) and Virgin Mobile (Bell) don't. Sasktel doesn't, nor does MTS.
Yeah, most registrars require 3 letters minimum. DENIC (who handles.de) recently allowed 1 and 2 letter names, which were all bought up within minutes.
There was apt-torrent, but that project appears to be abandoned.
The thing is probably that there is no pressing need. There are many educational facilities that are are willing to provide mirrors for such things, so there's no real reason to implement a system to borrow user's upstream bandwidth.
1. Maybe. XP still has several years of security updates left, and as long as you're sensible already, UAC isn't that much of a leap ahead. 2. I'll give it that, if only because it prevents a full screen program from taking over the video hardware, leaving you without any kind of interface and forcing a hard reboot. 3. I haven't experienced that on XP either. 4. UI is arguable, I'm not a huge fan of the new start menu, though the shell-like search is handy. 5. Haven't noticed anything in this regard. 6. I will admit more drivers are included. 7. This I will agree with. The tool for selecting a wireless network is much smoother than on XP. 8. I will agree the built in power management features are nice. 9. Uninterested in either. I haven't used IE in months. 10. Yes, the graphics system is a big step ahead, as i mentioned in #2. 11. Yes on 64-bit (XP64 was a joke), but I don't bother with windows media player (VLC/media player classic for me) 12. Yes, it doesn't nag you to restart after updates. Instead it keeps the timer in the background if you're running a full screen program and reboots out of the blue.
We're fine for this year, but things will start hitting in 2011.
IANA will give out the last 5 blocks (one to each RIR) in their pool in either May or June of 2011 and wash their hands of IPv4, dealing only in IPv6 addresses from then onward.
APNIC will be the first RIR to deplete their pool, probably in August or September. ARIN will likely be right behind them. RIPE NCC will last longer, as they've been progressively tightening their requirements to receive address space, but I would expect they'll either be out or rejecting practically all requests by January.
LACNIC and AFRINIC will continue on as normal probably through at least part of 2012, as they don't give out many addresses, so their blocks from the final five will last them for some time.
ARIN has nothing on Ford's or IBM's (or HP for that matter) blocks. Those addresses were assigned directly from IANA before the RIRs even existed and thus ARIN's policies don't mean anything.
At current rate, the fourteen/8 blocks IANA has in their pool will be assigned to the RIRs by June of 2011 (Once IANA is down to the last five/8 blocks, the next time a RIR requests addresses, they will give one block to each of the five RIRs) and wash their hands of IPv4, dealing only with IPv6 addresses from then onward.), but the RIRs will still have their pools. Of those, APNIC will be the first to run out, probably in October, followed ARIN maybe a month later. RIPE NCC is an unknown, as they've been tightening their requirements to receive blocks of addresses, though I'd say they'll either be out or rejecting practically all requests by January of 2012. LACNIC and AFRINIC will be the last to run out, probably lasting through 2012, as they don't assign many addresses, so that final block will last them awhile.
"Huge" is relative. We're currently assigning about one/8 block (~16 million addresses) per month. Those 100 million addresses, even if they could be clawed back in a reasonable expedient manner, would only buy about 6 months.
Going though the list of companies given class A blocks, recovering all of them that aren't assigned to people who are likely to be using them (AT&T, IBM, etc.), it would buy us about 18 months, two years at the outside.
And what prevents them from lying to get in? Your resume probably contains quite sufficient information to masquerade as a someone you might vaguely know (former classmate from college, for example "Hey, it's Steve from college, i was with you in $CLASS. Been wanting to catch up.") and would expect to see on such a site.
Aside from the fact these people are monitoring pictures tagged with your name, which are not necessarily posted by you. Are you going to walk around in an invisibility cloak all the time to keep people from taking pictures of you?
And how are you supposed to know if someone decides not to hire you because you're a catholic/wine taster/gay/republican/metalhead/model/democrat/atheist/country fan/jew/bagpiper/brewer/etc. I think you put far too much faith in the rationality of managers.
1. Size. Modern hearing aids are very small, they fit in your ear canal, rather than behind the ear. There's not much room to add a bluetooth transceiver and antenna.
2. Battery life. Bluetooth is not free in terms of power and given the above size constraint, you don't have a lot of headroom to put in more battery. You're looking at about 100mAh, 600mAh at the outside, and expected battery life of days to weeks of continuous use. Even with the brand new low energy bluetooth (which practically nothing supports yet), you're still looking at a considerable draw.

There's been one going on for the past year.

Yes, that's the case in a functional market. The cellphone market should not be mistaken for one.
Your information is out of date. Telus, Rogers, and Bell all charge for incoming texts since 2008. Koodo (Telus subsidiary) charges, but Fido (Rogers) and Virgin Mobile (Bell) don't. Sasktel doesn't, nor does MTS.
I'd love that, so long as the safety protocols consistently remain in working order.
I cannot decide if you are trolling or honestly believe what you're posting.
Might not be far from truth. If your government is anything like mine, you might be finding VAXen and System/370s still in active use.
More like private sector salary and compensation levels have systematically crept down over the last 20 years.
Also, available figures place annual inflation for this year at about 1.8%, so they're currently losing money.
If you've got a touchscreen phone, that PIN may be much less secure than you think.

Why do you presume the money will be spent inside the US?
How much do you think raising taxes on the rich will net you? Have a wild guess. Then take a look at the Laffer curve.
Ok, that's a pretty curve. Now tell me why you insist we are at the maximum of it.
Sure, here you go.

If they could reduce their usage to just 3, we could give IPV6 another 3 years of grace.
What? We're assigning roughly 17 million addresses per month. That would not buy us 3 years, more like 7 months.
Asia will lag behind in IPV6 adoption.
I doubt this. Current projections are showing that APNIC will be the first RIR to run out of new IPv4 addresses to assign.

200L of CO2 wouldn't be a huge problem. An average human produces more than twice that every day.

One problem solved, at least two more created.
1. Size. Modern hearing aids are very small, they fit in your ear canal, rather than behind the ear. There's not much room to add a bluetooth transceiver and antenna.
2. Battery life. Bluetooth is not free in terms of power and given the above size constraint, you don't have a lot of headroom to put in more battery.
