You missed the point. Those are not itemized and when the drug companies say this drug cost $100million to develop, it doesnt really mean much if they spent $10mil on making the drug, and $90mil on advertising it.
Right now, they get to lump those numbers together to inflate the R&D costs.
the cost to develop a drug has nothing to do with getting the info out about the drug. The two should not be linked.
One is advertising plain and simple, the other is research and development. The cost of creating a drug has nothing to do with how to make people aware of it.
Hundreds of millions of dollars is bullshit...
A good portion of that is the advertising campaign to SELL that drug...
yes, drug companies are allowed to include advertising in the R&D cost of a drug.
all three were done by porn shops on the internet..
remember where amazon went to learn how to sell on the internet. the porn industry, they had already been doing it for years
You know that a good chunk of those "MILLIONS of dollars" in development also include advertising costs...
Yes, drug companies get to artificially inflate the "HUGE" amount of development costs by adding their ad campaigns into the cost.
you are correct actually...
however the original statement is still fact...HD resolution is still nowhere near the full potential of currently used film (35mm)
Do you actually check registars of what you consider spammy hosts or are you just bullshitting?
Yeah that is what i thought.
A lot of sites experienced outages due to this and caused a problems, considering I run a website for a local real estate company (who does not and never will spam) and a web design firm.
Actually the latest version of dreamweaver produces superior code to most of the experts that develop by hand.
It is clean, compliant, and just plain better to use.
Maybe the person didnt know what they were doing to begin with, in which case, the tool has little to do with it.
I pushed back the expected release date from April of 2007 to July
Where are all the fanboys claiming it will be out soon because microsoft said so....

Geeks 10 years ago saw "DOS" (or any combo of it) and thought Disk operating system...
time doesnt stand still and no one today thinks of DOS as that anymore except a few old timers that havent adapted.
Except for backups (which is a legit purpose but is very coupled with piracy)
And backups becomes extremely useful when considering the wideranging reports of disc scratching on the 360... I know if I bought one I would damn well want a backup (for a $50 game that might become to scratched in 3 months)
I have never had a problem with my cd's or dvd's scratching because I am pretty careful (well not always, but they still work) But from the reports of the 360, scratching occurs while the game is in use..

Um buying a modchip isnt illegal...selling them is
Hmmmm....
Actually I see it as a very small message. A large amount of people demonstrated....what did the rest of the population (you know the other 59 million)
protests honestly mean nothing...cause the protesters hate whichever population regardless (aka they are lost votes for the politician and always will be)
Guess what, people said no to number 1: but not enough people.
Just because you have some objectors, well it means nothing to have some. You need a lot. there simply werent a LOT
Can I read a book and still be an author....yes.
same with code.
If you intently study code then go an immediately write the same thing you will have probs.
If I look at it today, see how a couple of things work, then go write some different code next week, it isnt a problem..
The tained by viewing scenario is fully bullshit.
I have never taken an exam that hinged on a fact that was just said once in class.
Good professors let you know what is important, what you need to know because the exams reflect what is important to know for the class and to get something out of it.
I think a laptop for class is a distraction...
Hell my GREAT classes (the classroom time) required very little notetaking...why because we were expected to have the notes from the reading material first, to know the info first. Then to have it all explained in class. It should make sense then.
You equate murder with at most a mild nuisance (he could have done some really bad things, he didnt)
in the grand scheme of bodily harm he is equivelent to a kid in a fist fight
The registry is garbage because it is sooo huge with no standards and just crap all over the place...
A database format for a specific set of items does make a lot of sense.
I honestly dont see why for the bookmarks system but thats besides the point. a lot of cases it makes sense for (for when you want to search much more complicated data)
True, but honestly thsoe files could be stored on the most slow ass medium currently in use today. hell a 1000rpm ata33 drive would satisfy those requirements. as long as it is BIG...
system drives basically need to be small and fast cause the chances of you running a real system that is 32 gigs (outside of servers, i mean normal computer systems) is pretty minimal. sure 10-12 people in the world might, but for everyone else, speed is a bigger issue. get a drive that is fast and reliable (and cheap because of the size it provides) and it can make a hell of a lot of sense for a thinnish client.

First of all, film used for real movies is 50some mm. not 35
I may be wrong, but supposidly we have yet to tap the full resolution of the film used in most movies.
so you take the reverse opinion, because they are rich they deserve to be wronged without justice.
