No, you wouldn't have to junk the radio, you just can't sell it, unless you could make it meet the standards they put forth five years ago and prove it.
rar/unrar something, play a video, virus scan or find a file on your computer
All of those things will step your processor back enough for the software to check (I have this issue while installing, mine scales to a 600MHz processor when its bored)
But include more drivers and you need to include more technical support for those drivers. Not everyone can install things easilly, just the other day I had to set up the extra multimedia buttons on someone's keyboard, because they didn't know there was a checkbox to enable them.
Almost everything you said is dead on, but I have a few comments on one paragraph... "How many people need to use the details of history in life, after all, and Literature classes , Speech classes are also of dubious merit, after all -- most people won't be historians, professional writers, speakers, or politicians. Don't even get me started about the professional merits of Art classes for non-artists."
Yes, history is mostly useless, but you lose me after that, Literature gives us a rich understanding of life and although sometimes boring, it provides some communication skills through vocabulary. Speech class is also a useful thing, as even the most introverted person will have to give one presentation in their life, an interview. If you have no communication skills and a good backing for talking up a point, how are they going to know? You can't shove all your information onto a 1-2 page resume (ideal length). As for art, I am an engineer, and although I wouldn't think art is useful, it actually helps build a foundation for thinking creatively, which is helpful for design situations.
Claims are actually the main part of a patent, the rest is just there to back it up. Infringing the set of claims causes patent violation. The abstract is for people who don't know anything about patents to briefly look at it
resistance is like the size of a pipe that water is flowing through, consider voltage like water pressure and the current like the flow of the water. the smaller the pipe is, the more pressure you need to pass the water through at the same speed.
For the next blurb to make sense, I need to say that while transformers step up Voltage, the power calc is the same on both sides of it (V*I on one side == V*I on other side)
Power lines are actually really low impedance (resistance in AC) wires, but due to their astounding length they have pretty high resistance. To reduce power loss in power lines, the electrical companies step up the Voltage using a transformer. They do this because if you up the voltage in the middle step, (the power lines) the loss in power is much less, as the current delivered to the end user is much less than that going through the lines.
Thus ends your/. tutorial on power line transmission. For more basic information, along with images, check the howstuffworks article on power distrobution: http://science.howstuffworks.com/power.htm
I am quite amused that you replaced the line
"The second stage will have a liquid engine capable of restarting multiple times. The payload will sit atop this second stage inside a large aerodynamic payload shroud."

That sounds all well and good, but what are you supposed to do for the 12-16+ years of school [i]before[/i] you're allowed to really get into what interests you. Learn the basics to give you an idea of what really interests you and what doesn't. Honestly, without what people learn before college, how are they supposed to know what is neat to them? Who walked into kindegarden knowing what they wanted to do for a living and is not a fireman? (No offence to firemen, its just a common kids dream)
The basics of life are learned at school, including socilization.
As much as I agree with your main point; there are still new works being distributed which would definitely fall under the original time length for the laws in place. Honestly, if something is older than me, the owner doesn't have many rights to it, as it had its time in the sun before I could speak. On the other hand, if I thought that something is really worth the money, I will buy it; but that is getting off topic and all rambly, so thats enough for me.
"Gamecube lacks buttons"... actually, it doesnt. Xbox Controller Two Analog One D-Pad A, B, X, Y Buttons 2 Shoulders Sel, Start, Blk, White

Two whole buttons lacking, otherwise, these are all the same... For the style of Gamecube games, this is more than enough. (though i dont like the grip on them, i like my bear, the xbox original)
Actually, the difference between a copyright on a design and a patent on a design is the ease to go after people copying your idea. design patents are closer to copyrights than utility patents. uspto.gov has more information on this, and a number of other people have posted more information on it.

when you have 100 resistors at 0.5% tolerance, you are gonna have drift, and you will have to calibrate them to the right parts, you can make 100's of those cars of the same make and model, but none will be exactly the same, especially when you have sensitive equipment. (Think odometer)
actually, the radio station has broadcasting licences which allow them to transmit the signal. now, if you managed to get a broadcasting signal for something like bit torrent, then it would be ok, but that will just about never happen (at least with the current CEOs in offices). broadcasting has a large number of different rules, and playing it in your head is a totally different concept. don't take things to such extremes, its just silly.
Any IT shop required to keep their products up will have these things in place.
Do we have to remind you of the power one button has over millions of angsty teenage girls?
LiveJournal sure knows... even with backup, its still a big old mess...

No cost to read a patent, they are completely public documents, otherwise, how would people be able to do research to know if a patent already exists?
Want to search for yourself? http://www.uspto.gov/patft/index.html
By their statement, if you read and don't find an error, the next one will almost definitely have an error.
Happy hunting

You really think they have to be good Ideas? have you seen some of the game out there?

Most games these days are just rehashes of things that exist, though there are some gems in the rough.

Your microwave knows exactly how long to cook it.

why would you need the printer to grill it?
with todays computers and modding trend, im sure there will be a grill heatsink soon...
or just use that george forman computer from a few weeks back...
