Clearly you read a bit too much into my comment. I find it extremely comical that an agency such as the FBI which is supposed to be keeping the country safe and is supposed to be well informed finds a poppy printed canadian quarter a security risk. I frankly consider it laughable. I've noticed myself that canadian quarters have a variety of prints and a quick wikipedia search yields information on over 50 types of different prints that have been issued (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quarter_(Canadian_co in)). I hope you are the minority here and I am joined by most slashdotters in the feeling that it's incredibly ridiculous that an agency such as the FBI flagged a canadian quarter with a poppy print as a possible security threat.
"An odd-looking American coin with a bird which can be described as an Eagle raises suspiscion among Canadian Citizens as an artifact for espionage. The odd-looking - but harmless - "eagle coin" is unfamiliar to suspicious Canadian Police Enforcement and forced them to submit private reports about the eagles "devil eyes" which can only mean they contain tracking devices to take over canada."
can anyone else say omfg paranoia ?
Why are they charging that amount for a patch? What gives them the right to charge that price to fix a problem with a product that a consumer has already bought and should have support for. Why is this not just distributed on windows update as a patch/fix ? Am I missing something here ?
I don't buy the whole Skype video being a large part of the doubling internet traffic. Internet video has been around for a good while now and Skype can market the hell out of it but i don't think it'll aquire such a large slice of the internet pipes. The move from email to IM is also unlikely, way too many business' and way too much money already invested in email servers/infrastructure.
Besides that, decent predictions. I think we can all vouch for notebooks slowly taking over the desktop market, case and point would be that this last year alone I bought a laptop for myself, my dad bought himself a laptop and my sister a macbook. I don't think macbooks will take such a large share of the notebook market allthough I do think they will be top contenders.
My prediction is that there will be more spam (seems like a sureshot every year, unfortunately) and botnets will be taken ever more seriousely (I hope at least).
my 2cents.
yawn, others provide this already. not going to talk about mailinator or spamgourmet but i will mention www.spam.la as no one has yet. thats my discardable email of choice, sure all the emails arriving @spam.la are visible on there but you can filter. simple and straighforward. and no signingup required. enjoy.
