Yes! Back in the day of System 7, I got a virus from a CD that came free with MacAddit magazine. I wrote them a nasty email and never bought another issue.
Most users of email are now treating it as a lossy messaging system
Every company I've worked for has made email just as critical as a phone call, maybe even more because email messages can be archived for proof of what price was proposed, etc. When users email does not make it there in 5 minutes, heads start to roll, let alone not making it there at all.
Company technicians are not grouchy, they do not put down those idiots in accounting who can't seem to open email attachments, and they're always happy to serve their fellow employees.
Now fucking go away I'm reading slashdot.
I agree, I worked at a garage where customers would complain when we wouldn't replace their old, almost bald tires that happen to get a nail in it for free and the managers would always give them a better deal than store policy. Can't stay in bussiness too long if you keep bending over backwards.
You need a Hello World Server edition. Pricing you could set at, oh, $699. Then you could charge licensing fee per workstation with a yearly subscription fee for updates and service. You'll make millions. However, I just applied for the rediculously over-priced software licensing patent. So you, M$, and SCO owe me some money.

No, No, I believe the Statue of Liberty is the correct unit of measurement for planetary objects.
Jupiter has a diameter of 71492KM at the equator

I, for one, welcome our new Jupiter sized overloards.
How will I get to Netcraft to check if the internet is down?
Someone has to say it...
In soviet Russia, the internet melts you down.
I've been playing Need for Speed games for years where real cars I may want to buy are being advertised.
Toshiba, in July launched its Qosmio laptop

Maybe you should try the patch instead? Then you only need to remember once a week, instead of once a day.
Does that mean we'll have some new Miller commercials?
d00d1: Are you gelling?
d00d2: I'm totally gelling
depending on how much money is spent on her
Am I the only one who wish he'd thought of this? People (geeks) spend money on something that isn't real. This may be the elusive 2nd step!
1) Put virtual girl in cell phone
2) Tell geeks it's happier when you spend money on it
3) PROFIT!
I wonder if my wife would get mad if I got her an arm pillow for Christmas?
So it's all the fun of spending money on women with none of that annoying sex.
The only difference is with marriage, you get more money back on your taxes.

I can really increase my geek karma with one of these - along with my 'got root' t-shirt, 'WTF?' hat, and 'I [heart] TUX' bumber sticker!
Here's my take on Java, for what it's worth (not much):
Java is easily portable
Java requires a runtime client
Java is slower then C or C++ compiled binaries
Or a glitch in the /. Matrix.
Medical uses and saving whales are all fine and good, but when are they going to do something important and make a computer case out of it?

I was thinking usTunes sounded more patriotic, like freedom fries. Or Tunes R Us?
steal the food from artists' tables.
Ya right... a million "stolen" mp3s will hardly cost Justin Timberlake a Hummer or many, let alone a cheese burger.

I thought the colors were in support of our troops in Iraq? They seem to be of the same desert cammo. Other wise they'd be just plain annoying.
The cute ones can train on my main vein.
