Is there any reason you couldn't drive an LCD with USB 3.0? I use 6 monitors on my Mac at home, with 4 of them using Kensington USB->DVI adapters. So why not cut out the middle man and simply allow USB as an option if it's 3.0 (as 3.0 should have plenty of bandwidth to support several USB based monitors)?

Not sure about all servers, but most Dell servers within the last 2-3 years only have USB, not PS2 (to save room for other ports on the back).

That's what a 24 port powered USB hub is for (keyboard, mouse, scanner, 2 hard drives, and 4 monitors using Kensington USB->DVI adapters). And I *still* have room for more gear on it =)
I would assume it would work the same as any PDF with license restrictions turned on. At least that's how the PDF I bought from Amazon many moons ago worked before they had the Kindle and their kindle format.
But I question whether those who sleep around and have more children have "better" genes. I want intelligent folks with hardy physical traits having offspring, not Cletus.
Then Apple needs to charge a fair, flat rate. The post office doesn't get a cut of the value of something I ship. They get a flat rate based on weight, whether that be an ounce of gold or an ounce of water.
Which works as long as my iPad has connectivity. Why can't they just make regular apps like Wired and The Economist did? Or is Lord Jobs going to say "whoa whoa whoa, magazine apps get to the back of the line".
Which is even a scarier idea, as when my wife went to upload some family photos to Facebook a day or two ago, it's using some sort of facial recognition to "assist" you with tagging people. Creepy.
But it sure is a golden marketing moment. I'm an AWS customer (we do huge enterprise hosting environments that integrate with AWS) and I'd had been impressed with them had they said "10GBps of DDOS traffic? Pfffft. Our anycasted infrastructure easily shrugs that off." Now, they look bad in both technical and political circles (at least to those who believe in freedom of speech for those not accused or convicted of a crime).
So? The farmer will get to keep his profits every year from harvesting, money that would otherwise be sent outside of the country by non-local farm labor.
Pretending that the first world can survive without a base load power supply that is more environmentally friendly than coal is counterproductive bullshit that halts progress. I'd much rather live with the consequences of having to store used nuclear waste instead of burning off the numerous toxins in each ton of coal.
Even if my post regarding breeder reactors was incorrect, reprocessing spent fuel with $CURRENT_NUCLEAR_TECHNOLOGY is still a valid method of handling the fuel.
Continue to complain about nuclear, it'll still be used because there are so few options for base load with current technology.
So than the real solution is to grow food in the locale where its in demand, and have robotics handle the picking and logistics. You're never going to get around time to market if you need to pick the fruit in California and ship it to New York.
I'm looking forward to the time when I can pay an extra fee for my hackerspace membership, and be able to walk into any hackerspace in the world to get access to high end equipment (through hackerspaces collaborating). I like to call it "Make Anywhere".
Radioactive waste is a false argument. Breeder reactors would allow you to use up radioactive "waste" until it reached a point where it could be safely landfilled. Politics is the issue, not technology is the issue with regards to this in the US.
Nuclear energy is the cleanest *base load power source* currently in existence. The wind doesn't always blow, the sun isn't always shining, and the alternatives are constant hydro (which doesn't lend itself to be put anywhere you want) and coal (which emits more radiation every year than nuclear power plants due to the uranium deposits in the coal that is burned, not to mention the massive amount of CO2 per ton of coal burned). People like you are the problem.

The Kinect doesn't have the 3D resolution necessary. I have a 3D scanner and a Kinect, and have compared the two =(

HO-LY SHIT. Where the hell is Dexter Morgan when you need him?

I agree. Magazines should simply distribute to iPads via secure PDFs, sidestepping the issue with Apple.
So can magazines subvert this whole Apple push by simply developing their own iOS apps?

No worries, there's an app (iBleach) for that ;)

This would explain a lot about my subscriptions to Scientific American, MAKE, Nuts and Volts, and The Economist.
Amazon is the new middle man, replacing publishers with their ecommerce engine. Meet the new boss, same as the old boss.

You should be worried about someone with a) your idea and b) the skills you don't have getting to market first.
