Token Ring is still very useful in some special cases, like servers working in a very busy network but you need a guaranteed time slot to transfer data, it maybe useful in case like airport to transfer critical data/commands which can't be delayed due to network collision. But I suppose switches nowadays can do the same thing?
I remember in older Windows release there is a printer driver called "HP Laserjet 1xxx (Microsoft)", it looks like a generic HP driver come from MS, with less function than the real thing but still works.
Dell should not sell "laptops" anymore, since it may burn your lap.
Should it called "tabletop" or "mini-desktop" again?
Speaking of batteries, mobile phones also prone to battery explosion according to a few old news article, and I don't want to burn my pocket/legs when using those phones...
NAT is only safe if you are the only user (PC) on the local network...You will still get infect by other PCs if they share the same subnet with you. (Our newly installed XPSP1 PC learn this lesson in our office)
well, one of our machine reinstall XP-SP2 last week got infected with worm *during* running XP setup, at the time Windows Firewall is still not active yet. And we are doing this whole thing inside a private network(I think there are some infected PCs in the LAN already). That's way too crazy...

Physical security is always the weakest link in any implementation...they should back to the drawing board again...
