So you have to modify it to make it non niche, to the average person PS(1/2/P) are niche. True these laptops won't have artificial limits, but there will be some issues (unless they become popular enough people start programming with them in mind)
As long as IE uses MSN by default no one can complain. People actually have to take action to use this product. If Google were to force people to use Chrome in order to search it would be leveraging.
I never said I supported the DRM crap, I was saying to the OP that fonts by themselves would be good, he doesn't think so.
I bet you would just need to pull the font out of temp files (like youtube videos and anything else you want to rip), so if you have your temp folder book marked it would take, 1 click, highlight, ctrl-c, click to font folder, ctrl-p.
Still doesn't fix the scalability issue with images, I don't want a tiny logo/header on monster screens or a giant logo/header on tiny ones. Pixilation == BAD.
Are you seriously suggesting Flash? How long did it take for Flash 9 to come to Linux? Not completely accessible.
I never mentioned that I liked to idea of the DRM, I just was saying that the idea of using custom fonts wasn't too bad. I fully understand that this DRM would be crap because the user could probably pull the font file out of their temp folder or something.
So over ride it (within a week of any sort of font whatever being implemented in Firefox there will be an extension), designers still should be able to design something. Heck this way you would get text that can be adjusted by your browser instead of an image.
What if I want a fancy title without using an image that screws over scalability (fluid layouts FTW) and screen reading software? Sane font usage could be good for design purposes.
Of course we need options/extensions to over ride fonts when the Myspace-Unreadability-Guild (TM) figures out that black on black in weird grunge font looks good.
Electricity is cheap in places without competition because it is a heavily regulated monopoly, whereas phones and internet are unregulated monopolies.
In NC at least Duke Power (the power company) is required by law to provided the cheapest possible energy. They also need gov't approval to raise rates.
Different batteries? All these Nanos probably got their batteries from one company/factory at the same time. I wonder how well Apple's records are of what part comes from where.
Why and let the gov't supoena your saved quotes? Open vi/emacs, copy and paste quote, save, encrypt, backup to 5 different RAIDs in 3 countries. And y'all call yourselves geeks.
I just realized I probably shouldn't trust the tag on the front to tell me my harddrive size. My OS reports that my hard drive is 17.8 GiB with 12.8 GiB free. 5 total used, 1.3 as data.
I'm a common user for the most part (except I use Linux) I'm on a 20GB drive and barely have 8GB filled. Only 1.3GB is actual data (the rest is OS and programs). I use a 2GB flash drive for my back up and maintain a (paper) list of programs I have installed.
I do live in NC, and I am not surprised, amazing that they didn't also include, "OMG" and others. NC has wasted more money than this will waste. But yes I have added it to the list of things that have been done to piss me off.

It's no more prone to mutations than the rest of your DNA, it undergoes the same replication process.

Firefox, Opera, and Safari don't have a monopoly, and aren't controlled by Google.
Yes those products are niche, they are gaming only and each game is designed specifically for them.

Are congressional records considered part of the law?

Viruses and worms allow for optimization of the entire unit, sub-par pieces are deactivated and recycled (a very long process).

Remove my car battery? just cut off the antenna.
I think it is gray hats who break the law for ethically okay reasons.

1) Setup on NE corner, run robot. Run robot in reverse. Pickup robot
2) Repeat on SE corner
The US is going through a small/medium housing bubble/crisis/weekly-euphemism. All tied into some loan problems we are having.

But you need your knees to hold your McDonald's Coffee o' Death(R)(TM)(C).
I forgot to mention it was on her cellphone.
I know a girl who checks myspace, facebook, email, and various other things and also IMs while driving. She is scary.
