Besides, you should be happy that the gamers are the ones craving such devices, pushing the manufacturers to go further with their technology. Because eventually that stuff trickles into the "Work" stuff.
Kinda like the military research becoming everday items eventually. Someone has to push the envelope.
MS hired some good individuals who know how to do this sort of thing.
Or at least, they should have hired the people that calculate lost revenue due to pirated music downloads. Because EVERYONE knows there has to be a direct relasionship, I mean if they couldn't get it for free they would have paid full price for *insert shitty music here*
I think the 'rose style' canned message system is better than the original use of the f-keys (1942 and vietnam), if only because it leaves my hands in the postion they need to be in to move, run, jump, strafe, etc.
While using the f-keys means moving the hand away the keyboard...
Because Utility pole data doesn't need to be to the nearest millimeter. So not all the data comes from legal land surveys, but it does come from a survey of some sort.
Even mm precise instruments don't get the correct postion when surverying things like sewer manholes because the center of the manhole cover is tough to find, and the center of manhold cover is not the center of the manhole in many cases.
Which will all come from legal land surveys, or engineering drawings prepared using legal land survey data. I would know because I make those engineering drawings.:)
In the late 1950s when SST designs were being actively pursued it was thought that although the boom would be very large, they could avoid problems by flying higher. This premise was proven false when the North American B-70 Valkyrie started flying and it was found that the boom was a very real problem even at 70,000ft (21,000m). It was during these tests that the N-wave was first characterized.
Senators are entitled to prefix "The Honourable" to their names for life. The annual salary of each senator, as of 2005, is $119,100; members may receive additional salaries in right of other offices they hold (for instance, the Speakership). Senators rank immediately above Members of Parliament in the order of precedence.
An unelected senate, with a Majority of liberals in it, and I get this from reading wikipedia:
In practice, however, the House of Commons is the dominant chamber of Parliament, with the Senate very rarely exercising its powers in a manner that opposes the will of the democratically elected chamber. The last major bill defeated in the Senate came in 1991, when a bill passed by the Commons restricting abortion was rejected in the Upper House by a tied vote.
So the Canadian senate is just a reason for us to pay a hundred or so people $100,000 a year to sit there and nod their heads yes.
Yeah we have multiple parties, but whent here is a majority government, anything they say goes, since there is nothing to oppose them.
While I see a lot of stuff getting blamed on Bush, he has to get things through congress and the house as well (I think, I know only a small amount about the US system with their three branchs)
So sometimes I think that the US system is more democratic in that respect.
I graduated last year however, so the policy never affected me because my class complained enough so that only the people after us were stuck with this policy.
And the approved list was much stupider at the start as well, with calculators like the TI-82 (which I used to have) and the TI-83 not allowed, but the TI-83 plus WAS allowed.
It seems they've pulled the stick out of their ass a little bit.

Simple. Very simple.
They go where the money is.

I believe you're making the Battlefront creators seem like the ones innovating.
BF2 is like BF 1942.
SW Battlefront is like BF 1942.

We're talking about doom 3 right?
Light?
Umm.. maybe how nice it looks when you shine your flashlight around the room... unless you have your gun out...

Which won't help when the cable companies router that's near your house loses power too...
Frequent Power Outages = Frequent internet dissruption, due to the fact you kind of need your computer and modem to have power too.
Pluse if the power outage is wide, routers and such in your area will be off too.
So you can't say that the powerline is less reliable than your internet since power = internet in 99% of cases anyways.
You may be joking, but if your not...
What if I stood up in Parliment (if an MP) and said I followed the ideals of Hobbits of Middle Earth, and that that was my religious belief.
I mean, that's just something made up in a book...
(kinda like the bible)
They don't open well in every program.
More specifically, formatting can easily be screwed when going from Quattro Pro to Excel or Excel to Open Office for example.

Doesn't have to be satellite data map. A lot of the data will come from legal land survey information.
Unless they were a... *gasp* coincidence.
Why would bittorrent be the P2P app that scares MS? What about Napster, or Kazza? Those were around years ago. This makes no sense to me.
Did not go down for me....
Do not be so quick to blame google.

Bing Bing Bing! We have a wrong answer!
Sonic boom is tottaly due to pressure waves created by going faster than the speed of sound.

In a Civil suit, you only have to prove that it was probable, not beyond a reasnoble doubt.
It just means they didn't collect the right evidence in the napster case.
They won't make the same mistake again, so really this means not that much in terms of pirating on bittorrent for example.
