An UAV is mostly a software research project because hardware is mostly well understood. If they have copied an existing one without access to source code the machines will be outdated quite soon.

Maybe he was referring to US auto industry; they still build pushrod engines with carburetors. I seriously doubt that Nissan GT-R relies on 128MHz processors.
I love my 1.4GHz C2D 12" Lenovo laptop, it's great companion to my desktop. I mostly use it to watch movies and browse web, you know, the stuff that makes up 80% of leisure computer usage.
There are only few problems with it: heat and battery life. The battery lasts about as long as when I bought it few years ago (2-3h) but since my gf bought a new macbook pro I'm no longer satisfied with it. When the battery gauge on this macbook pro turns red it means she has around 2h left.
I see two apple products as replacement to my laptop: the new air and 2nd gen iPad.
I thought the reason is that BodyMedia has an innovative product and a potential killer app at their hands. I would like to believe that even big companies are made of reasonable people (Ballmer is an exception not a rule).
Buy a monitor with pivot function and rotate it 90 degrees when editing documents.
Prefer IPS panels when choosing a monitor as TN panels have very poor viewing angles vertically and it really shows when you rotate your monitor. For a good list of IPS panels look here.
After rotating the monitor the count of lines on monitor becomes more important so make sure you pick one with 1200 lines or your screen will be too narrow.
If screen rotate shortcuts are not already supported by drivers there's a small utility for windows called iRotate.
It's because he tries to explain mathematics in a language that's originally designed to help apes to find food. Similarly you can't explain quantum physics in human tongue, it just isn't built for that.
I've got 100/20 Mbps line + phone + cable for about $42 a month in small and poor Northern European country called Estonia. Our population density is lower than US and it doesn't seem affect internet availability.
We have used a previous version of the robot, it was called flexpicker back then. The fexpicker had quite impressing acceleration of 15G. It was quite scary experience to work near the robot even when it was stopped.
The specific application could, however, be implemented by using even slow robot. The trick is to use what's called conveyor tracking. The button panel is connected to encoder that is synchronized with robot coordinate system.
Usually a more complex version of the application is used: the target object is placed loosely on moving flatbelt conveyor, the robot has to locate it by using smart camera and only then it can pick.

They'll probably quit after they dig up goatse.cx.
AFAIK obesity isn't a big problem in lithuania.
Evolution never anticipated humans putting hot slabs of electronics on their privates for extended periods of time.
Actually, the evolution filters out the ones that keep hot laptop on their crotch in few generations. It's the specific task it's good at.
After current generation of hardcore gamers grow old and become decision makers it'll be called sport.

Buy Dell and close it down. Just to make Michael Dell eat his words.

according to the laws of physics
Which laws? Which physics?
To break the laws of physics you need to know them really well. He does.

IQ is normalized on population. Chinese IQ100 != American IQ100. Also I'm yet to see anyone who has got less than 100 points on an online IQ test.
I do look forward to preview of next OS X.
