How about using an old laptop, or a low-end refurb netbook. Either should have the processing power required, has low power consumption, and can run other services (media server) if required.
I've got a better idea. Have your legislators ensure they stay the hell out of your content. They aren't allowed to listen to your phone calls, wy the hhell should they be allowed to look at your data. Seriously... if they suspect people of committing a crime, they should get a warrant.
I'm not even sure the language is that relevant in most cases. Bad programmers will write bad code in any language... and most people, especially your 'average Joes' are bad programmers. The bad code will almost always be there, some languages just make it easier to spot and fix. Some languages put up enough of a barrier that most non-professionals don't try to use it. This is not necessarily a bad thing.
Doesn't bluray have region coding enforced? I would think that would cause a lot of concern in North America with so much Japanese anime. (ie: people use ripped content anyway)
Nearest I could to a price find on that is about $7000. That will buy more than 20 PS3's. (Although the QS21 is a more powerful machine, with 2 cell processors).
Why is the record company going to care? This is big, free publicity for some (most likely) low-talent act. Even if someone gets killed in a stanpede, it's unlikely that they'll be found guilty of anything... and boy, would that sort of thing ever get their 'star' into the headlines.
Personally, I'd buy one that provided solid Linux support. The Apple mouse looks pretty, and sounds functional, but I haven't heard of any Linux drivers. Anyone?
Wristwatches seem to be making a comeback in a big way. Watch any TV show and keep an eye out for flashy watches. As a bit of a collector, I'm kind of annoyed that they seem to becoming trendy. On the bright side, the selection of cool watches is definitely improving.
I would think the vastly greater sales would be related to the larger number of iPhones on the street, and the length of time the app store has been around, but that's just me. I would also guess that Apple users would buy more games than Android users, just based on my generalized, uninformed perceptions of the user base.
The exploit usually comes before the fix, but not always. Firefox frequently deploys fixes for security hole they've found themselves where not even a 'proof of concept' exists. Many other applications are the same.
A huge part of their reliability is due to restistance to, and lack of change. Almost every problem that is encountered is due to a programming error. The same hardware availability can be obtained on a 'cloud' using virtual machines, redundancy, automatic fallover, etc, many of the same technologies the mainframes use, with a huge performance increase and cost savings.
An excellent idea. Best to get it out of the way up front, as that's what tends to happen to them anyway. Getting people used to them being correct is just setting them up for disappointment in the future.

Why ... it's not them getting screwed.

It said 90% less code, not 400% more. I still know a few people recovering from 'COBOL fingers'. Their minds never really recover.

Most people really don't really seem to be able to deal with those anymore.
I'm being environmentally, friendly you insensitive clod!
So basically, the fine print on one of their service contracts.

There are several wristwatch cellphones available now.

A cross platform framework having platform specific features is hardly superior. I had it installed, but no longer.

(This is still capitalism, isn't it?)
I think the problem is that it's capitalism in a semi-benevolent dictatorship
It's certainly a hard deal to pass up for carriers. Is leveraging like this considered to be approaching an abuse of monopoly for Google?
Research? Screw that, let's invade other planets.
I just found it ... it was in my programmable calculator from high school (EC-4004 from Radio Shack). Still works too.
On occasion I've used them to apologise ...
kick_ass() should be specified in an interface. Chuck Norris is the implementation.
