Do we really want them to know what the danger is? What if a violent dictator or a terrorist comes upon them? Can't we just signal that it is dangerous?
Why not write it in ancient and modern languages? It is very unlikely that in the future an average person accidentally stumbling upon one of these burial sites will be able to read Latin or Greek.
Innocent until proven guilty doesn't apply to POWs. If they are captured while shooting at American soldiers in an occupied country, then they are prisoners of war.
Microsoft has done nothing wrong. Internet Explorer is their product and they can make it how they like. Do people expect them to make a competitor's search engine the default?
No person or group controls wages.
No person or group controls where companies hire workers.
No person or group has full control over the national debt.
I do think that illegal immigration should be stopped. Companies will have to offer more pay for the "jobs that Americans don't want" to get people to do them.
If a person's skills, or lack of such, are not worth very much, then they will not get paid very much.

Even if it has a very slight right wing bias, how is Fox News anti-Europe? Because it occasionally hints at not being showing complete opposition to the President?
Mandate what by law? Should the government ban paper books and abolish all of the current copyrights? Even if you don't care about the economy, do you care about freedom and property rights?.
Global warming is certainly natural and even if we are contributing to it we can't completely stop such a process. Getting rid of paper books will not save the world.
The service packs aren't comparable to the 10.x upgrades. They are more like the 10.x.x upgrades, which are free. The 10.x upgrades have major improvements, so the prices aren't for the same thing. QuickTime Pro being $30 is irritating, though.
Our "war on terrorism" is a war on the middle eastern extremist groups including those that you mentioned. It's not really a war on all terrorism, although that is certainly the most prevalent kind now. They are the people indoctrinating others to want to harm the West. They are in a lot of places, but are concentrated in the middle east where national governments allow them to exist. I don't think there is a problem with tapping phones, but it has to be warranted or not used as evidence in court. It should also be documented, even if those documents are not immediately released.
I think he deserves a fair trial, but also a very harsh punishment (from the lawyers statements it seems he admits to guilt). He should be jailed in some way that he can help secure US government computer systems.
I knew Ubuntu was a word, and was under the impression it is the name of a humanist ideology. It's not a word that most Ubuntu Linux users would recognize otherwise. It has very little to do with what Ubuntu Linux is. I'll admit it probably sounds weird to me because of where I live, but if it was named "Humanity" I'd like it less.
K names like KOffice aren't that bad. They make it clear what the software does. It's Ubuntu, GIMP, etc. that seem like bad names to me. Not only do they have no relation to the software, but they aren't words. I sort of like iNames better than k/gNames only because i somehow seems better. The non-i OS X applications have very good names in my opinion.
I meant that it utilizes system wide data like address book and keychain and spellcheck. All webkit browsers do this. I do not think that this makes it any less secure. Safari is not necessary to use the OS like I.E. is for Windows (I may be wrong about I.E. being necessary).
If Apple sold OS X for any PC the disadvantages would be:
1. Support would be much harder (Many new drivers for PC components) 2. Bad support would lead to a bad reputation. 3. Hardware sales (Apple's main source of profit) would go down. 4. Microsoft might stop making Office for Mac.
The advantages would be:
1. OS X would become more popular with businesses. 2. OS X would become more popular with computer enthusiasts.

Well, I guess I can understand being used to a two button trackpad button, although I dislike them. Apple should come out with something like the mighty mouse, where there is one button that can function as one or two. Two button scrolling is really nice, though.
I really like the keyboard, though. The keys are nice and the backlighting is convenient. What buttons is it missing?
In the U.S. it is a thousand million. From what I read on Wikipedia, in most non english speaking countries it is a million million, and the UK had recently switched to a thousand million.
Firefox is not as well integrated with the OS (Address book, keychain, spellcheck) as Safari or Camino. It's not just the aesthetics. And Safari Just Works® also.
Firefox on Mac OS X isn't any worse than Firefox on Windows or Linux, it's just not as nice (integration and aesthetics) as a lot of other Mac OS X browsers like Safari, Camino (Which is made by Mozilla), and OmniWeb.

Quenya and Sindarin? Then they'll think there were once elves here.

So they can't choose to make their product how they want to?

It poses a danger to everyone on the road when someone does something like that. So it was his business.

Shouldn't the editors be able to fix this typo? The article is only a paragraph and might take an editor 5 seconds.

What do you use page up/down and the second delete for? Page up/down is no better than the arrow keys and the second delete doesn't do anything.
For the graphics cards, I assume you mean buying them separately? The best available for the PowerMac G5 is the QUADRO FX 4500 512MB SDRAM.
