im not thinking very hard, but you apparently are :
Editing home movies / photos? a 3 ghz amd with a decent (ok) graphics card is more than enough for this. unless you set up a cad studio at home.
Playing games? again, with a 3 ghz + system with a good graphics card and mobo will be more than enough for it. and it is.
Doing other things while watching hi-def movies? like doing computer animated cartoons at the same time and playing wow in windowed mode, and browsing the internet at the same time conversing with 4 people in 4 seperate im windows ? come on. get real.
Or maybe just so that your computer and programs will start faster? 0.5 seconds instead of 1 seconds. worth it ? not. for computer start, 6 secs instead of 8 ? i guess not. remember that most of the program/computer start is tied to hard disk speed.
That's not even getting into the "power user" that will use such a processor for rendering graphics, compiling code, and running other operating systems through virtualization. those "power" users already utilize many different setups that can be used for many different tasks. and whatever needed in the degree of 'power userness' you describe, is totally irrelevant for the masses.
that it would suffice for ms not to hamper any other format's development, like trying to bribe out standards board, bribing state senates in various countries to convert them from already made odf choice. if one plays legal, AND ethical, not exploiting legal system, there is nothing to be talked about it. if not, then the other party gets tougher too.
in the utopic option it would be good for microsoft to cooperate with odf in order to make both formats easily usable, and add odf to their office applications too. therefore they do not need to spend any unnecessary resources on developing ooxml, make use of a format that is already being developed and adopted by many sources, get on good side of the developer community, and get a good pr. many birds in one shot.
mull, from what i remember means scuttle, bar, make harder, oust. these people are not trying to prevent a do not track list, they are trying to establish one.
here are many people in i.t., who actually decide what is going to be used in their respective companies as it people, and many big i.t. companies in the field against microsoft. i dont see any "majority" or "power" on microsoft side apart from being able to grab casual, irrelevant old-age user in a remote state by the balls, because s/he doesnt know jack about computers. these kind of majority dont dictate anything, unless it is during a tea party in a suburb.
just remember how you were when grown up. what you speak of are stuff done when one's a kid. not mature. back then there were different shit we were all doing. today there is 'hacking'. tomorrow there will be some different shit.
compatibility with Microsoft's OOXML what the f**k does that mean ? we are trying to make ODF THE format, we dont care about what ms is pushing or its compatibility. ms should try to make whatever they have compatible with it. they have forced enough stuff to the i.t. world already, its time they adapt their ways to what majority wants.
internet is changing the world to the extent that in 50 years, the people who will be in charge of their countries by then will have grown up together, playing same games, doing same stuff on the internet at nights. which will totally eliminate interracial, international enmity, differences, and eventually uncooperativeness and ultimately wars. which will be a major step towards the utopia.
additionally, in local and general sense, the internet is what is making all people to get informed about anything happening anywhere. this is only due to the free nature and accessibility of the internet.
such foundations like EFF are providing it to stay as it is, rather than turning into a telco fucked cable tv in which all people will be limited to whatever some fat butts choose for them to see. it affects everything, internet and software alike.
also remember that the freedom in the internet have created this boom and many jobs that never existed before, and we are actually reaping the fruits of that. if the fat bastards succeed in turning internet into a cable tv clone, many of us, and indirectly many more will be losing our jobs.
it affects everyone. even those who lack vision and dont give a shit. realities dont care whether someone gives them a shit or not. they affect all.
The very flexible boxes system was good, but it provided BIG TIME exploitation due to template stacking.
people just got all possible bonus points for something and then created uber templates. like fencer templates that got stuff from pistoleer, fencer, teras kasi to form +120 dodge, and become unbeatable. at one time, the same toon had won an online pvp tournament of 160 people, FIVE TIMES over, WITHOUT being hit JUST ONCE. then they tried to nerf the stackers, but, what difference would it make - they just changed their template trees and got uber again.
the pre cu, pre nge state of the game, ie the initial state alienated MANY sw fans. imagine, you are going into a sw game, but EVERYONE is walking with rancors or grauls or panthers behind them, the game looks like a zoo. then, suddenly it goes away with patch, this time you see that bare hands outdo blaster wielders, totally making it a medieval setting instead of star wars.
and that is until they see that delegating documents and sensitive information to a third party that they cant parley with is the most foolish thing a business can do.
For that idiot have cost you much credibility with gamers. The gamers who supported you during the recent gaming related stampedes. bad move. very bad move. and top quality idiot(s) you have there.
if you are gonna just drop older episodes of your shows, and the visitors would be required to be informed of your scheduling so that they wont miss episodes, i cant just use your goddamn service.
we are living in a fast paced world, there are already loads of things that i need to keep track. keeping track of 3-4 tv shows, nomatter how i may like them is totaly off the agenda for me. id rather save the variable space in me brain for more important stuff.
in short, im basically telling you to shove your scheduled service up your butt, nbc.
technicality on the approximations of top level of the domain name system doesn't matter. if this is allowed, inevitably many registrars are going to follow suit for all registries, and eventually there is going to be a situation in that this is a widely adopted practice. yes, its not technically a monopoly, but you'll be hard pressed to find the domain name you want vacant. why just rent a domain name to some 3rd party for $8-10 a year, whilst you can park it on your ad page as registrar and enjoy around $100-1000 revenues in hits.
is someone who lived in turkey for the last 30 years, and saw what iran, sscb can do to whatever they are involved in. afterwards, saw that what kind of a government, and even people, russians have become after the demise of soviets, finding their way out to other countries' business fields like tourism in the form of some kind of mafia. i live in south of turkey, antalya, and there is russian mafia here. italy is a joke. one has to have closely followed their last 10 years from the media to know what kind of joke their administration have become, first, court jesters in the form of of a media baron, then various jokesters. no sir. i dont need cliches. i know it first hand, and i dont like what i see.
China, Iran, we already know what kind of cultures these countries have. Why does anyone get surprised when Italy or Russia goes for censorship ? Italy is a country that rich media bosses can rule with much scandal, as they please. Russia is a country in which whoever gets too successful in criticizing the government gets killed in a car bomb. Recently russian police have beaten Gary Kasparov in an anti-kremlin demonstration.
all countries act as per their cultures towards internet.
ISPs, fiber owners have built the lines with PUBLIC funding, on PUBLIC property. they DO NOT own the lines. it is totally illegal. they have no controlling rights as to public's usage. if they had built them with their OWN money on the land THEY owned, it would be legal. it is not as such.
"registering all web site operators" scheme was proposed even in turkey, then abandoned. italians are even behind turkey when it comes to internet, apparently. "protecting the young" my butt. the only thing the young need protection from, are rotten spirited politicians like those.

go totally naked, put a professor's hat on my head, and run around in local judiciary offices, yelling "sue me, sue yoouuu, sue togetheeeerrrr !!!"

a subjekt that is being discused at the particucar moment.

from what it seems, you are choosing wrong jobs, wrong workplaces.
From bribing standards board of sweden, to bribing nigerian government. microsoft is losing its edge it seems.
Cuz thats the only thing i can think of as a use for a 5 ghz computer in an average household.
mull, from what i remember means scuttle, bar, make harder, oust. these people are not trying to prevent a do not track list, they are trying to establish one.

many quit at that time.
go poor by donating to something very important in your life either
come on. we have many million dollar people hanging out in here. why only $10k ? rats in pockets ?
huh ? despite the fart that you were going to put has not been out, there is malpractice. explain this to us.
and that is until they see that delegating documents and sensitive information to a third party that they cant parley with is the most foolish thing a business can do.
