The lawyer Objected to 'form' (the way the question was asked) 147 times by my count. There were areas where he did it several times per question and others where he objected to things that seemed straightforeward. A browse on the net shows that this is considered a 'rambo lawyer' tactic and is frowned upon. It is often used as a distraction tactic (try keeping your train of thought when he keeps that up) and to allow discreditation at a later date.
I would like to submit as evidence this networking textbook.
Ummmm... I don't think I would EVER buy something that only allowed me to call my friends by using a 4 step (home-contacts-chelsea-cell) touch interface. if it had a real keypad fine, muscle memory or the old hold-down-4 trick... but if I'm gonna have touch I need voice. Also, voice memo is possibly the best thing I have ever discovered while drunk (the only way to remember some things when U R too sloshed to type). 3G? can't get it in most areas and its in the works, nobody smart buys the first gen NEway. Outlook? ummmm... that will be along OR even better, a nice Apple Mail for PC (since Macs sync great anyway).
can SOMEONE please confirm it doesn't have some sort of at least rudimentary voice dial/memo? it DOES have bluetooth...
Spiritual side of branding: I curse them when I hear the awful XP default sound, I swear to god the fifth thing I did on my last install was replace the sounds and wallpaper (sounds which are mine and have had their volume edited to blend better with music). people who have the default sound blasting over their laptop in a lecture hall (especially in a Compsci class) should be drug out into the street and shot.
Diagnostic: linux clipboards are fine at this point, but I get really annoyed that WinAmp has 4 volume gates (I have a pro mixer board with fewer) when there is a built in mixer for, um... just wave I guess. Perhaps FIXING THE VOLUME would help... especially with a soft-volume laptop.
I have a desktop, but I'd rather have it on faith that my speakers work than have a microsoft backed robotic quartet doing a logorathmic analysis of phlegm blasted over a 4 knob precision tuned and largely unmutable 7.2 (dual subs) stereo system and waking my neighbors because I woke up needing pr0n. thank god this will be hacked along with themes, DRM, and on-disc drivers.
I aced my undergrad papers by cranking up the settings on MSWs grammer check. It helped me because I'd look to see what I did wrong and change as needed. After I could write a couple papers in a row without seeing the blasted green lines, I went OpenOffice.
Since many slashdotters are nuts about OO.org, is there a grammer check hidden or in the works? It's the only reason I'd ever open wurd these days.

Thank goodness for the CCTV network so they could catch this guy! /ducks
Couldn't have found him any other way!
