You never, ever, see any paperwork, stacks of document boxes or any case files being used in any legal shows.
They make it seem(Especially in Boston Legal) that the defendant or plaintif just tells the attourneys their problem and then just go to court and argue it.
It also doesn't help when we have Phillip Ruddock as our Attourney General. He turned our immigration department into a vindictive, racist, uncompassionate and unfair system.
Now he appears to be doing the same on his vendetta against free speech and copyright.
Stop the increase of the climate change from CO2 pollution, with more pollution!!!!!!
Although there is probably some good science behind the idea, there was also good science behind the idea of using the Cane Toad to kill the Cane beetle, and that worked out well for everyone didn't it.
No its not, now its a marketing gimmick companies like AOL and major banks use to attract new customers.
Until you have signed up with them, they will do everything the can to make you feel like you are coming first, then as soon as they have you, they give you a number and tell you to wait in line.
Yeah, it does sound a tad cripple-ware. I wonder how different the wifi features are compared to what the guys in the concept & R&D labs first built.
Why the hell would I want a WIFI enable device if I can't even connect it to an AP or AD-HOC it to my notebook, it makes it really useless.
My Phone has bluetooth on it, and I sync it with my notebook wirlessly to change my playlists or archive my messages, its fantastic and its really got me to use the MP3 player in it. I don't think ill need to by the Zune if it can't even do what my phone can.
In the battle theater, though, 30 minutes is woefully short.
You've obviously never seen an arnie movie;) In 30 minutes he can defeat an entire army with a bag full of weapons, and save his daughter.
This suit could allow Arnie to do it in 15 at least!!!
The home market may be miniscule compared to corporate, but its still a market to take. Why would intel want to surrender their Viiv platform to other competition simply because the market isn't as big? Its still a market, people are still prepared to pay for it, so that means there is demand. If there is demand for the product then its worth making it, and shipping it.
Now more then ever we have MS/Intel/AMD/Apple starting to try to push PC's into living rooms and people want them to look good and stylish.
You may not give a shit about what your case looks like, but in the retail market where PC's sit on shelves the shoppers do care more about how their PC looks then really what it does.
Just recently I build a computer for a friends parents with a nice low profile Micro-ATX desktop/tower case and a 19" LCD monitor. It replaced a huge white box & 17" CRT on their desk and after some cabling cleanup it made their study look bigger and much nicer.
They were so impressed they showed it off to their friends, and within a week I had requests for 4 more.
People do care about the asthetics of what they buy when they want it for more then just basic functionality, the computer speed & jargon goes right over their head and they just want something that works well and looks good.
It just sounds exactly the sort of thing politicians do, deny there is ever any problem, quietly legistlate, and then when it comes to an election they can say how wonderful they are at the problem they identified and fixed themselves.
But when I do for business I enjoy the fact that myself and everyone else on the plane cannot talk and is not in contact with anyone.
Its like a few hours of peice and quiet where I actually don't need to think about work or listen to other people yack on about similar stuff.
I'd be happy to see planes without internet and phone access because then I wouldn't feel preassured into actually doing more work during a time where I should be relaxing.
As anoying as two formats probably will be, its quite obvious both HD-DVD and blu-ray camps want to completly annihilate each other and exist in a monoploly.
If this disk was invented and publishers not aligned with either camp decided to go multi-format on the one disk, what would the ramifications be if either consortium decided to make things difficult?? Both sides have a lare amount of studios who could make things very difficult for anyone who didn't want to fall in line.
This could have the making of another huge anti-trust case.
At the end of the day, these movie/song clips are just basically adverts. Its the ultimate form of Viral Advertising and the studios should be encouraging it, not trying to control it.
If they want to make money then this sort of stuff is gold for them, it doesn't cost them anything at all and its not hard to start something.
Its all stupid. You see them release "controlled" video's onto youtube and other blogsites when they are promoting a movie/song but if its something that wasn't thought of by them they suddenly want to sue the pants off everyone.
Im not adopting HDMI yet, there are too many question marks sitting over it for me to invest the large amounts of $$$ needed to get everything onto it.
Its going to be a good and successful format but I don't want to purchase devices now and find out in 2 years I have to replace my reciever just because some movie studio's aren't happy with its Encryption and decide to use something else.
Im going to wait until this technology is well and truley adopted before I change. Thats why I have been holding out on getting a new TV/Reciever and will not worry about the PS3 as I will be getting a Nintendo Wii
Adam usually does things the long difficult way and it usually ends up in failure. Jamie's plans always seem to work and they are well constructed.
Adam makes the show watchable because his idea's and his personality make it interesting TV, while you have Jamie at the same time showing you the right way to do things.
This combination is what makes good viewing and evenly balanaced between entertainment/humor and education.
I would hate to watch the show with someone who couldn't stand up to Jamie, Adam does this well and thats why the show works so well. If Jamie was allowed complete control everytime, it would be boring.

Most home users wouldn't even knew the VB100 badge exists.
In that market, anti-virus sales are all about glossy packaging on shelves and fancy flash advertisments.
If their AV fails and windows gets a virus, its Windows problem, not the AV problem.
Microsoft are in a loose/loose market, but they stand to make money off joe-sixpack so they don't care.
Mod parent up!
Its 2:30 in the morning, im shitfaced and that had me in stitches!
I was watching a show about 10 years into early research into this.
The biggest interest was extremley light weight bullet proof clothing.
The military would be very interested if they can get their infantry to loose several kilo's of body armour.
I don't want to see Han Solo's great character trashed by a bad script and the over-use of special effects.
Lucas helped kill my vision of the star wars universe with the prequals, I will never watch another Star Wars thing he does again.
I swear I saw this on Gigabyte promotional material like 6 months ago.
I tried starting my own company, but some geek guy in glasses bought me out.
Now my pencils are all broken.
Thats inherited from its parent. /.
IANAL but I do provide IT support to a few firms.

That's the nature of statistics.
And fanboys.
Theres lies, damn lies and fanboys.
I like it.

Using Windows Live for authentication and a button inside WMP for one a one click upload like image shack would seriously give them some leverage.
I'll probably get flamed for this, but if I was building that service that is what I would do.
They have the platform there, why not use it.
