At least right now, for desktop use at least, I would try to put all my apps on one of these things and still try to store most of my data on one of those big mechanical drives. Besides, unless im storing movies or uncompressed music I don't really need anything bigger than 40-80 gigs.
Hey, wait a second... im getting confused. If they wanted to see what brand people trust the most can they just look at usage logs (google being used more than other search engines). To me a more interesting experiment would be to do this all without showing and the logos to see what engine gives back the most useful results. I don't understand why they did the experiment....
They were told they needed to show the source code of the voting machine software to the code review, not only some of the code. They should have thought of this before, its their fault.
if they actually accomplished something rather than getting 40% of the way done and then cut funding my demography would be more excited in the area. I personally think the government is too slow for most peoples attention span. If anything exciting happened soon, it won't be from NASA it will be from a privately funded company.
The only two reasons why I don't use Linux as my main operating system, is because 1 the driver support (and installing processes) is horrendous and 2 because of the lack of compatibility with main stream games. With KDE and GNOME, it already looks leaps and bounds over windows, but I could really care less about what it looks like. I've heard all the arguments from the kernel team about their reasons for the run around installations, and I understand why most companies won't develop for linux; but I think if the OSS people really want people to migrate over to linux, they should worry about usability first and foremost.

I believe there is a some load factoring going on also, to try to spread the wear across the whole disk also.
No I think you mean the number 9.

I trust that my data is safer on google's servers than at home on my hard drive...

They released Vista.......? I thought they were still in beta...
