My cat can refuse the Vista EULA, format the hard drive, install debian, and launch a lawsuit to get the money back for the useless OEM-Vista sticker.
Not yours.
In fact, the reasearcher was told by the NASA that the cost of data received from hubble was about 11,14 euros (~$15) for each Mega Byte, plus some extra fees to transmit data from the "receiver" to the place where they need it. The higher estimate is of about $100/MB.
Let you estimate how much your telco will charge you for 1 MB of SMS... (1 sms = 160 char = 140 Byte because SMS characters are encoded on only 7 bits)
"> Adding : to the front of complex commands you just typed but realise you don't want to execute yet so that they get into your shell history"
Why ":" , and not "#" ??? It avoid the error, and its safer (if you have ; in your command line, it will run, even with : at the begining of the line).
It's difficult to write a such example : A "hello world!" programm in Cobol is about 20 lines long (only 5 lines with Cobol85).
C is a low level language. You can work with memory, system cals, do recursive functions, etc. With C you can write 3D graphics, a cobol compiler:), Doom, the linux kernel (If you know asm to), and everything.
Cobol is a high level langage, mainly oriented to string and files/data manipulations. It can't do many more, but what is done with it is rock.
<joke> As all banks (and the USA) are very close to bankruptcy, and that Cobol is mainly used in heavy banking apps, no more Cobol programs should be running at the end of 2008....
Arg, oops. Someone just said me that Pdt Bush decided today that the US government will help banks... Some Cobol programs will also see the year 2009.
</joke>
In fact... I think that remaing Cobol programms will still run when the last Java powered device will be trashed (or recycled).
Cobol apps in my company ALWAYS works.
To obtain a 99,999 availability with 'modern' technologies, you need... [Put there all arguments that can show that *<Cobol+Mainframes]
In fact, French police already had such files for decades (aka "le fichier des RG", the file of the inside information gathering service), but they were "secret", and it was impossible for people to know exactly what kind of information was recorded.
Then, are files of this kind of files usefull or good for Democracies... ? usefull maybe (You never watch The Experts or NCIS ?;) . Good ? I dont know (1984, Equilibrium,... what else ?)
ISP "just" have to restore the original model of their business :
You pay when you are sending data over the network (It's easy, it's like real mail).
The Bandwidth offered to content providers (here the BBC) is maybe simply to cheap, if the network can't handle all of this. Offer vs demand, it's Market economy: Sometimes it sucks, sometimes it works. Here it's the solution.
All IBM ads, are excellent, for many decades.

(ksh) cd arg1 arg2
Replace the first ocurence of "arg1" found in the path with "arg2", and cd the new directory.
Why it doesn't exist in bash ??
Here in France, McCain is a well known brand of fried potatoes... :)
For this (and for some other more-real reasons), we enjoy your choice guys.

Will there be a "Windows7 Plus!" to allow users to create funny themes ?
Yes, but all what we need for this cheaper live is made in China, or coded in Bangalore.
What about buying less unseless stuff, but buying better quality objects ?

If you have to do this just one (or few) time, just burn a DVD or record a tape, and give it by hand (or by a trusted carrier).
The file(s) on the media can be encrypted to avoid problems if the media is lost|stolen|trashed before to be destroyed.

The memory and the search button are both usefull. Use the second if the first is bad.

I expect these people will be killed by someone trying to steal their BlackBerry.
In an interview on French radio "France Info", the 2007 Physics Nobel Prize co-winner Albert Fert replied to this question :
- Do you like computers ? (his works has big implication in computer hardware)
He replied
- I just use them, I can't say I like it. I have a new one with Windows Vista, and a don't understand everything, I need to adapt.

Military already have satelites with such resolution.
