We just had a environmentalist come to our school to talk about alternate energy sources (this is in the UK), and according to him, these systems will only produce one megawatt of power per unit*, comparable to wind turbines. While there is a lot more space in the water to be taken up by power-generators than on land, I've got to wonder how much energy has gone into producing, designing, and deploying this system. With such a low output per unit, is it even worthwhile?
* Again, this is not coming from a really reputable source, just some environmental campaigner. Anyone know any real statistics for these type of systems?
I like how I bust my ass and write a paragraph long summary that actually explains the issues behind the case and what both Putin and Gorbachev have said about it, and it's still lounging in 'pending' while this one liner sits pretty on/.

I've been using Vista & iPod together on my laptop for months now and have never had anything untoward happen -- has anyone here actually experienced this?
And along comes a cheap iPod knock-off for the real price. Apple, due to not selling enough iPods at the hugely inflated price, can't afford to fight a huge legal battle and allows it. Apple at this point is more fallible than iPod.

Apple fanbois/ iPod fanbois still buy the damn thing, convinced it's the best thing ever, apple makes millions.
Wow, kudos to the submitter and the article writer -- while speculative, it makes logical sense and uses existing evidence to predict future events. See, this is the sort of story/. needs more often....
Having said that, I think that no force in the world (not Microsoft, not even Apple) could make iPods stop selling -- I don't think that by having the main attraction of the keynote be the iPhone makes the iPod any less the world's most watched MP3 player. Apple TV may be a little less stable and visible, so that getting hurt is a more legitimate concern, but it doesn't make sense to delay the announcement -- who knows what Apple is going to spring on us next?
Wow, looks like the U.S. Military will be faced with two options for next generation armour -- this and Troy Hurtubise's Anti-Grizzly Suit. I wonder who would win in a fight to the death?

So, on a completely unrelated topic, how is DS emulation coming along?
Nice try, but you're off by a great deal.

"The Soviets have entered the war -- well, sort of. The BBC has an article about former Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev, who has issued a statement on his website condemning Microsoft's prosecution of Alexander Ponosov, a Russian student, and urging Microsoft head Bill Gates to intercede. Mr Ponosov stands accused of running pirated software on school computers, to the total cost of $10,000. The statement reads "we have great respect for the work of Microsoft's programmers... and are in no way casting doubt on the principle of punishment for intellectual property violations. However, in this case we ask you to show mercy and withdraw your complaint against Alexander Ponosov..." He also reminded Microsoft that under Russian criminal law, the teacher could face "imprisonment in the Siberian camps." This statement echoes Russian President Vladamir Putin's comments earlier this week, who said Microsoft should "go after the distributors, not the users," adding that it was "ridiculous to just arrest a chap for using computers.""
