Umm... mathematically yes, though with decreasing probability... Of course there's always hyper-inflation... but that's not really a helpful price increase:P
Unless you're looking at the long long term - after the species dies out or money no longer exists in its current form probably not...
Also you would not be able to be emailed by people who you haven't already approved the email address; would they have to phone you first?
For example:
People who change email address (Gmail, dropping a spammed email)
People legitimately contacting you (Old friend, people wanting to know more about your website etc.)
etc.
It would be like setting your telephone to only accept certain phone numbers and scrapping the phonebook. Bad for people, terrible for business.
Though I suppose spam is worse because it requires less effort and cost to contact 1000 people than using the telephone would... I've only changed email address 8 times... LOL
Seriously though, I agree MS, probablly don't want to fork out for the law suits if their entire data store was compromised. This way they can say its your fault.
Also it might get more people to take them up on it as they may feel more comfortable that won't be giving their private data to MS...

No, but I think you're a hacker if you use a saw to balance the table.
In the old days (that's a small number of months these days) the Googlebot would hit you and index you as soon as you set up a site and it was good, unless you weren't ready for it.
Recently I've set up a new site for a client and Yahoo was first off the blocks, then MSN, Google came along a struggling third a week later. Shockingly MSN pulls my Slashdot comments _the_same_day_ I write them! Let alone any of my sites! Google get them much later. Google is king of content, but its quickly loosing its lead in recentcy. If it lists a news article a week after it was new, that's not news...
I fear Google may be loosing out due to the size of data it has, an for that I lament for Google was and is the best, and the cleanest, but if it can't keep it data fresh as the other engines it will surely loose users?
Presumably this is to allow more protection from/for patents and copyrights.
Most distributions include demo versions of commercial software, software in the public domain and software under other licences.

I assume it works with polys and phong etc.
I'd like to see the hardware doing splines and objects not using polys...
Though I'm reaching for my check book already...

We could start using Ultrawide band and just our data rates, while decreasing power needs and interference? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultra-wideband
I assume its to keep the diseases inert - since Kansas is one of the few places in the world evolution doesn't happen... :P

Presumably the millions of adsense and publishers will have to enable their sites to maintain adverts..? Might hit google revs a bit...
Now that I know Linus wrote all of it and fixes all of it I'm well impressed!

I suppose you could have them water cooled as well and heat your installations water... Then your saving on your heating bills.
Does this mean Alaska, north Canada, Greenland and Antartica are soon going to be popular server centres? Saves on air con...
And I want it in UK!
Perhaps it went mainstream, it just took a little longer to learn than expected... like 25 years...
The human brain is a little faster at these things and has far more inputs.
How quick would a twenty five year old processor with limited inputs be?
If your using a closed source database and the company that owns it goes down the pan you're just stuffed.
If its open, at least you have a chance to adapt and tinker to fix it.
Though in either case you'd probablly just go with a different provider.
In the article it does point out some in austriala patented the wheel in c. 2000 !
He was trying to point out how bad the patent sytem is...
Seems like he suceeded!
Eh? What's a firewall?

No, but I think you're a hacker if you use a saw to balance the table.
And a hack if you write about it...
When I say "Google" may cat gives a full swish of the tail plus a half swish.
If I say "MSN" I just get a half swish.
I meantion "Yahoo" and she ignores me.
Maybe its the dog?
Whoa! I really have to use the preview button, my comment reads like English isn't my first language!
Well it's not, C++ is with c# being my second. English a close third...

Its in the main review rather than the bit about the steady-cam if you missed it...
I like the Lego solving a rubik's cube... I thought of some great ideas using the Lego computer, but I never had _that_ kind of vision!
Do they come with adverts as well or are they an optional add in? Perhaps you could even choose the type of ads you want to interupt your programs...

If Apache can be included, where's the problem?
Just some early morning thoughts...
If you had a powerful enough RF receiver would you be done for unauthorised copying by the music industry?
I wonder what it would sound like if you just dumped a load of tags on a reader... Random 1K shorts?
