Forgot to include the obligitory Wikipedia backing up evidence
In 1993, SCO acquired two smaller companies and developed the product line that was named Tarantella. In 2001, SCO sold its rights to Unix and the related divisions to Caldera Systems. After that the corporation retained only its Tarantella product line, and changed its name to Tarantella, Inc.
Caldera subsequently changed its name to The SCO Group, which has created some confusion between the two companies. The company described here is the original Santa Cruz Operation. Although generally referred to simply as "SCO" up to 2001, it is now sometimes referred to as "old SCO" or "Santa Cruz" to distinguish it from "The SCO Group".
He worked for the SCO before it was bought by some other company that renamed themselves to SCO. SCO hasn't always been evil. They only turned that way after being bought by an evil company trolling for IP.
The proper term is "Frenched Fries (notice the ed)". Refering to the way that the potatoes are cut, specifically cut into long thin strips. So the potatoes were frenched then fried, hence, frenched fries. Then throughout the years, english speakers (British, American, Australian, etc.) being as lazy as they are, dropped a syllable and they became french fries.
Is that supposed to be pay-per-view or pay-per-download? I mean if they expected us to pay them everytime we wanted to watch our favorite show of say Family Guy or 24 that would cost hundreds of dolars a month (ok tens of). Wouldn't a pay-per-download of an episode be a much better (say easier) buisiness model.
And on another note would the episodes we download from the TV stations have commercials or could the cost of producing and such be covered by the revenue of the downloading?
Bluetooth is for high data rates (think file transfers) and at a very high power cost compared to 802.15.4 (low duty cycle, transfer a packet here and there). And with mesh networking you connect hundreds of nodes together, not something you would want to do with your cell phone and a lot of other people's headsets.

http://www.tinyos.net/related.html linked from PROJECTS USING TINYOS (caps not mine) under Community on the right hand side of the site lists a bunch of real projects using tinyos and mote hardware.

I think that's what you're looking for but if not let me know and i'll supply you with more info.
By zigbee products, my parent ment low-power embeded networking, non-closed sourced, non-vaporware products.
Before you get angry at me for being anal-retentive, there is a difference, and a signifcant one at that (at least to people who are working with the products, myself being one of them). I'm not saying those products listed above are vaporware, I'm saying they're not ZigBee.
If you want open source low-data-rate wireless mesh networking check out the http://www.tinyos.net/ and http://webs.cs.berkeley.edu/ websites. I can't say much that wouldn't be biased because I'm, how you say, an involved party, but it is completely open source (GPL) and anybody can contribute they're own code and if it is good it might even be used:).
Windows (at least XP) has the language bar which will let you set different keyboard layouts for different windows and quickly switch between them.
There are also programs out there, if not in XP itself that will let you use the same positions for shortcut combinations, it just happens to be a different letter (not that there was a one-to-one correspondence between leter and action in the first place).

The Nokia 5500 already has this capability. It has a 3-axis accelerometer in it.
Are you prehaps thinking of the computer that Lawrence Pritchard Waterhouse built in the book "Cryptonomicon"?

I suppose this is to lure people away from warez?
I guess a 2-3 second delay each way through the satellites is real enough for most people.
This is pretty much the only reason i bought a DS.
A cross between Demolition Man and that riddick movie, whatever it was?
because of an out-of-the-park homerun title.
It's not that funny considering that the Presidio used to be a military base and there are a few Portuguese names for places around the area.
Sensor Networks have been around years before that movie and there have been more deployments than just this one.
You're a few years late on that insightful comment. The "metro" fad happened when Queer Eye was popular. How it became popular is beyond me
Wouldn't that be generation i?

I'd like to see whatever it is that would get one into the Darwin Awards using the Shuffle.

ZigBee will be using the 802.15.4 protocol. See http://www.palowireless.com/zigbee/articles.asp/ for details.

Well there's always pr0n. But that's the answer to any question about what to do with greater speed and/or higher bandwidth.
Isn't it the tag off of the matress that you're not supposed to rip?
