No problem with Lenovo either. At least not on the Thinkpad I have. Just one "Intel Centrino 2" sticker that I don't mind leaving on. It's got that nice holographic part that changes colors as you view it from different angles, and it's small.
I often leave stickers on things as long as they look clean - it makes me feel like it's still new! I suppose leaving them on longer makes them harder to remove once I do decide to remove them though.
I thought it was going to be about how they don't like people to put their own stickers on after they buy them, a la Robin Williams with his "Pure Vibe" sticker on his laptop in the movie "RV".
Just like "micro" in microchip didn't refer to the size of the die or the package, but the size of the smallest features, i.e. the gate length, nano would refer to the gate size which is, for the chip in the z196, on the order of 45nm, so "nano" is appropriate. Chip makers are working on making 22nm now. But back when the term microchip was coined, the features were 10 microns, nearly 1000 times larger than today. Maybe it is time to change the terminology.
You're right though, that is a pretty large die size, 512 mm2 being almost one square inch.
False trichotomy. There's nothing in-between extreme extremists and moderates? You're either morbidly obese, just the right weight, or severely anorexic?
And Protestants don't make that distinction, Catholics do. Sure, some (most) Protestants have some vague hierarchy of sins in their own minds, but it doesn't usually come from the Bible, where Protestants are supposed to derive all their doctrine from.
Did you ever see a car magazine give a BMW a bad review?
You have to interpret what is written. Don't expect them to come out and say "The 2011 BMW 328i is a bad car. Don't buy it." They will compare it to some other cars, like Audis, Mercedes, Cadillacs for instance, and give you a bunch of numbers to compare, like MPG, curb weight, BHP, torque, braking distance, gear ratios, etc. etc. and make summary comments like "The BMW 328i performs well in our road testing, but the Audi A4 is a better value." (Totally fake, made-up, and bogus - don't flame me for it - it's just a hypothetical example). It's up to you to decide what's important and make a decision from there. It would be hard to give a BMW a bad review - they're good cars, in comparison to all other cars out there. A Honda or a Toyota will have better reliability and cost of operation - but we all know that. If I read a review of a BMW, I do so with background knowledge like this. Besides, does anyone buy a car based solely on a magazine review without at least a test drive or some other experience? Reviews are by nature somewhat subjective. MPG tests are not.
Do you have some criticism of UL's record of safety testing? They are an example of a non-government organization which has proven itself capable of making unbiased tests of consumer products. Yes, only of the safety, not of the performance.
MPG testing, given a standard protocol, can be done consistently and fairly. There is no reason a private organization couldn't manage it, except for the fact that the EPA has taken it upon themselves so there is no reason for someone else to do it.
You mean NCAR don't you? I visited there when my Grandma still lived in Boulder back in 1986, and saw the Cray which, IIRC, was still operational at that time.
My first thought was no way - I don't see any wire coming from the wrist. Then I thought: it could be behind his hand, I suppose. There certainly are a lot of wires in the photos. Still, I don't think it is one. Why would you need one to hold a finished product in a case? OTOH, it is HP, so maybe you do need one. It's a pretty lame attempt to try and muster interest in HP with these blacked-out images. Oh well, one good thing was seeing this on his desk and learning what it is.
Which happens to be located in New Jersey. I finally went to Crater Lake this year after living in Oregon for 14 years. Admittedly, it is a five-hour-plus drive.
And how is a higher resolution sensor going to undo lens aberrations? That would be nice.
Why modded as troll? Someone with an axe to grind regarding the for-profit science journals?

It means your karma sucks and/or you operate sock puppets.
FTFY.

My main protection is living in the Pacific Northwest, west of the mountains, where lightning strikes are relatively uncommon.

Lacking tags, I can only assume *you* were serious, and say "it only has to happen once".

Very interesting. Thanks for that. Sounds like you worked there.
How did the direct to film imaging work? CRT though optics to film?
RUR. But those weren't love robots, were they?
+1, Snarky, but true.

Sorry, Sounds like you'll have to settle for Rosie Palm.
...Marvell...
Anyone remember who bought Intel's wireless chip division....yep, Marvell. Ooops.
Well, I guess Infineon is bigger.
My 85 year old father-in-law. Mostly the book reviews, I think.

Colonel Tufte certainly agrees.
Remotely, while they are being driven on the interstate.
Prior art.
Yeah, he carries a lump of cesium with him wherever he goes, too. Too bad the fire extinguisher is just rated for ABC.
Get over it, Mr. Quayle.
