Best of all, Zunes will be able to connect to one another wirelessly, letting people share songs (as well as playlists and.jpg photos) with up to four other simultaneous Zune users within Wi-Fi range. Recipients of these shared songs will be able to play them three times for up to three days free, after which they'll have to pay to listen. Songs received wirelessly can't be shared.
While playing songs you got from other Zune users may be time limited, my guess is that if this is a typical Microsoft product, the goatse image you picked up from simply walking down the street will be nearly impossible to get rid of (both from your brain and your new Zune).
Yes; I am always amazed when we can send a little box with wheels and camers millions of miles away, and control it remotely, and it works! Just getting the rover onto the surface was an incredible feat; the fact that it continues to operate is even more amazing.
Just wait until you post the first comment in a story and get a Redundant moderation. And yes, it has happened to me before. Hopefully metamoderation will fix ya right up:-)
When was the last time we even had a public debate between presidential candidates? I mean a real debate, where they debated issues and presented their platform, rather than a canned discussion. And as far as a debate with more than two candidates, has that ever happened in this country??
The cost will also be very low, with computers costing around,5 -,10. I really believe that ultra simple computing is a great idea for the future.
My hope for the future is that someday everyone will create web pages with software that uses standard ascii, so that I see quotes, dollar signs, pound signs, etc instead of things being broken by things like "smart" quotes. Note that the above is how the last line renders with Firefox; my guess is it probably looks just fine if you are using Internet Explorer.
Actually I think this opens up a whole new field and entertainment sector at the same time: extreme speed surgery. The cost of the surgery (and later followup surgery, to fix things, remove stuff left inside, etc) can be paid for by tv advertisements if you turn this into a new reality show.
A few possible uses: -> You can now have software track the route you took while on vacation as you snapped pictures -> If you find a camera, you can now track the route the previous owner took before losing their new camera, and know exactly where their house is with the nifty bigscreen tv (in the background of a shot taken at home for example) -> If you find a corpse next to the road with one of these cameras, you can tell if they were standing in the road taking pictures when they got hit or if the car had to swerve off the road to hit them
Good luck catching him to give it to him. He would have to be on the track team to be able to get from class to class on time while taking that many hours. Heck a monkey on speed probably looks like he is moving in slow motion next to this guy.
I don't think he has enough time for a woman, unless he can find one who considers running with him from class to class comperable to an actual date. How is it even possible to register for 37 hours of classes in one semester without some of them overlapping???
18 years and counting so far for me. Though I will probably get a liberal arts associates degree soon. Yeah that should just make the money come flying in. Though mostly I just want a degree, rather than "a bunch of credits from the U", so hey it works for me.
Wow, they now have a whole new class of schools just for people taking performance enhancing drugs? Do you have to take them via IV, or are other ways acceptable too?
I never did finish my degree, despite taking several extra years (part-time) attempting to complete courses. I did get pretty darn good at netrek however. My guess is his priorities are probably a tad different from mine.
My thinking along those lines kept me from drawing for the first 36 years of my life. I took my first art class a few months ago, and guess what? Not only can I program, but I can draw too! After a few more graphics classes I will literally have the know-how to start with a box of computer parts and turn it into a functioning website (with decent graphics no less). Sweet!

I think I must have gotten the wrong tickets at the box office; is it too late for me to pick a different show?
All your Zune belong to US!

No, but you get a complimentary silk barf bag with a Virgin Atlantic logo.

Actually I can get 500mpg for nothing, as long as I am driving downhill the whole way. Though my right foot does get kinda sore from all that braking.
I keep standing by the road here in Albuquerque, waving my MetroCard, but so far it hasn't gotten me to work :-(
I always felt the same way about batteries: not sure I would want to get splashed with a trunkfull of battery acid when I get in an accident.

Actually you did, but sadly it was the you in a parallel universe who got them and is rolling around in piles of money right now.
Luckily the government installed backdoors are all contained in a simple and well documented kernel module.
- Jumping off of very tall cliffs
- Swimming with hungry sharks
- Watching "Dancing with the Stars"
Especially the last one; eventually I would have no choice but to poke out my eyeballs or go swim with some hungry sharks or something.
Though the 16 hours I spent surfing yesterday where even more boring than the 14 I spent the day before.
Someone patent "animated paperclip in a popup web window" and make yourself a bundle of money.

Maybe we should get outta the test tube already?
