Because the motherboard manufacturer's only control the motherboard, and in some cases either the video card or the CPU, not the memory, hard drive, sound card, TV tuner card, Firewire card, network card or pretty much anything else that Apple keeps tightly under their control.
You'll only see this in items like laptops where the manufacturer does keep tight controls over the entire product, like the ones that can play CDs or DVDs without booting up into an OS for example.
But then again you won't be able to use a non approved whitelisted mini pci card.
When I worked at IBM (the Endicott facility), the raised floors were mopped once a week, just don't go slopping a bucket of water on the floor and you're fine, they only ever turn light grey, not white, and of course 3 minutes after they've been mopped all the dust settles and turns them black again.
Also agreed, he doesn't want a raised floor in the basement, ceiling tracks are much better pretty much everything, only place I would use raised floors is a datacenter.
My last office was like that, 8x9 closest they put a door on and a desk in, the lighting was controlled by a switch out in our lab area, I had to remove the bulbs from their sockets because it was too bright in there.
My Saturn gets about 40mpg, but I pay gas taxes which are used for upkeep of roads, and it probably weighs significantly less than an electric vehicle loaded with batteries that causes more wear and tear on the road but pays 0 gas taxes.
Long before "everybody is driving gasoline-free vehicle" the roads would be totally useless if we don't revists our tax base now.
But the taxes are meant to pay for the road upkeep, a mile in a small little hybrid, solar, or electric cars is the same mile driven by the huge hulking SUV, but they don't pay nearly as much in gas taxes for that same mile, of course it could be partially argued that the SUV does more damage to the road and therefotre should pay more, but it already does, in the form of paying more per mile in gasoline and gasoline taxes, where the electric doesn't pay *anything* in gas taxes.
It's not entrapment to sell drugs at a standard street price (whatever that means) and is just standing there not yelling out "Drugs for sale CHEAP!", it is entrapment if they sell the drugs at prices so low that no drug dealer would ever sell them because then you're enticing a suspect with an irresistible deal.
If you had even bothered to read what I had linked to you might have read "As a glance at a history book would show, the Nazi symbol was oriented in a clockwise direction. So, as often as not, was the ancient good luck/sun symbol sometimes known as the Wheel of Life." "But you can find examples of both types of swastikas being used in what are clearly benign contexts."
Maybe you should read up about statistics and IQ, 50% of the population has an average IQ because of the bell curve, slightly more people have an above average IQ than a below average IQ because it is kind of like temperature, the sky is the limit on the upper boundry, but you can only go so low before your IQ is so low you never had any developmental phase, pretty much anything below 50 just doesn't ever grow and you can't get below 0, they stay at baby size where a 201 IQ is not totally unfeasible.
Native Americans, Hindus, Jainas, and Buddhists all used it too, so 1 out of 5 and it is banned, nice going, and that's just a quick search, I could probably find more groups of people who used it long before Hitler ever did and most of them have no "proven harmful ideology"
Last I was reading of pre-N stuff (a co worker was interested in it) they haven't even settled what frequencies N will use, or how wide the signal will be, these are some pretty big changes that could be made.
Heh, I used to work for On2 4 years ago, the version numbers are like those of Netscape and Slackware, they just plain jump a number, or the codecs were created internally but were never actually released.
Those of us who left (and one friend who still works for them) are quite surprised they're still around, they used to be big into codecs for video games back when they were Duck, one of their last projects was helping port FFVII to the PC, and they did a lot of Sega stuff too before that
I was being a little American centric with my post when I said most places.
But since this took place in America that is where I based my statements from.
As it is some towns and states in the US are attempting to enforce these "recomendations" as law, and these are mentioned whenever they turn up on/. and are usually spoken against here.
I think parents should be parents (note that I am not a parent) and not expect the state to parent, but at the same time you can't control your child all day every day and some regulation might not hurt, it is not like it is going to affect me as I'm well over the age any of this stuff would be restricted to.
In most places there are no loaws regulating age for video games, it's just a suggestion to be used for parent,s likewise movie ratings are not a law based requirments, both are efforts to keep the law out of the industry by self policing.
Yeah, until Valve's Steam servers die off on the day of release ebcause everyone will be attempting to connect, and in the semi distant future when Valve disappears and you won't be able to authenticate your copy because everything including single player is locked under the authentication system according to Doug Lombardi from Valve.

good answer, because there was a republican president in the white house 9 years ago, oh wait, nope, that was a democrat 9 years ago

Long before "everybody is driving gasoline-free vehicle" the roads would be totally useless if we don't revists our tax base now.
And they pay twice as much in gas taxes by using at least twice as much gas, my Saturn got around 40 mpg, quite a number of SUV's are lucky to get 15.
Utility fees aren't used in road repair.

Who said they're using release software.
you mean like this file, looks like BSD style license to me. Or maybe this one, which also looks like BSD style license.
And those random web pages are their official pages that they refer to themselves.
That's funny, but according to the manual libtorrent is under a BSD license, so no source code required.
For some reason freshmeat lists it as GPL, but that contradicts the sourceforge home page and their own manual.

Very good site at explaining what entrapment is and isn't.

no such thing as an "inverted" swastika

So you mean they both have above avarage IQ?
young George W. Bush probably had a higher I.Q. than did the young John Kerry
"swastika's are a cultural exponent of a proven harmful ideology"
Sorry, but more people than just the Nazi's used swastikas
Native Americans, Hindus, Jainas, and Buddhists all used it too, so 1 out of 5 and it is banned, nice going, and that's just a quick search, I could probably find more groups of people who used it long before Hitler ever did and most of them have no "proven harmful ideology"
and people call Americans ignorant

Where is it said the previous crew was Americans?
This is the ISS, international Space Station.
The current crew that had to eat desserts and candy is Russian and US and they ended up losing a few pounds.
I was being a little American centric with my post when I said most places.
/. and are usually spoken against here.

If unions weren't protected the people in unions would still have rights, any violence against the people in them is a criminal act.
But what about single player? which also requires steam to play?
A lot of people still don't play multi player games, they buy the game for the single player aspect of it.
Two L's .... Col. Jonathan 'Jack' O'Neil .... Col./Gen. Jack O'Neill
Kurt Russell
Richard Dean Anderson
people often confuse one guy for the other...
something O'Neill (Anderson) says in one of the episodes.
