Perhaps Mozilla could give you the option to set the default search engine when you install it. Then Google would pay for Google installations, Yahoo for theirs, Microsoft for theirs, etc. Users win, the search engine company wins, Mozilla wins. More importantly, Mozilla becomes more independent.
And then maybe Microsoft could rent a clue about that. I for one would love to see Google pay Microsoft for the benefit of being the default search engine in Internet Explorer. People who pick Google as a SE mean no revenue to Microsoft in that sense, anyway. And that would also mean more choice for IE users.
To be fair, having google as the default search provider in IE still wouldn't make me use it.
To be fair you'd save a fair amount of money if you could power your PC on those cheapo nasty protein shakes from your local corner shop. Mac's would obviously require something more expensive and classy though, something organic, maybe? Or perhaps a Beluga Caviare...?
I see this having severe repercussions; SuperGeeks(TM) across the entire Globe will start showing signs of social anxiety, possibly leading to further psychological trauma, as soon as the day comes when they're forced to say their goodbyes to their traditional, obsolete, semiconductor companions in favour of their exciting new biological replacements.
There's got to be at least two, "I, for one..." lines there.
Work is just that: work. You shouldn't hate your job, but it doesn't have to be 100% fulfilling. Do something useful in your free time. If you are good at IT and are satisfied with the benefits, then just do it. Yes, yes it does.

US citizens start working at a younger age, work much further into their retirement years and work longer hours than those in the EU in order to maintain their 'higher income' image.
You only have a higher employment rate due to the various age group differences amongst statistics, you work more years overall than us.
That study in 2006 also showed you spend 60% more on healthcare and are much, much unhealthier, physically and mentally.
I've encountered numerous Americans visiting this country that turn to a 'shrink' as soon as anything bothers them about their life, I can't generalise here but from what I hear it's pretty much the same on the other side of the pond.
Unfortunately house prices have been driven up by a combination of property developers looking to invest in a currency that isn't as weak as the dollar, that and lack of space.
Your size of home and the numbers of which own their own home are merely down to these facts, particularly the UK. Secondary to that is the sheer price of houses here due to the lack of new property development (space & planning) and those people that have bought all the available houses as investments.
Overall there maybe less money over here, but it has more value than it does over there, the typical American attitude is more = better.
Basically in a nutshell, your statements have pretty much f*ck all to do with the popularity of the PS3 in the US, you could throw any combination of "Europeans have no interest in xx product because of xx irrelevant issues." out there.
You don't have Eurovision either, which is obviously one of the greatest annual events in the world. /sarcasm
I would imagine it has something to do with the transfer speed of Bluetooth vs USB 2.0, transferring large files over a Bluetooth connection is about as interesting as watching paint dry.

Do Mac users even know what hacking is?

Luckily, though, it only took me 2 minutes to read an additional 30 seconds to type this. Go me.
You show them, America(n)!
Owning an ipod makes you cool though.
It's like rice for your car, only for humans; +15 BMI.
True story.
Just opening Safari on windows crashes the browser for me.
You bought the console though, right? Goal achieved, kudos Nintendo.
It's a new look, man...

Is a stereotype anything like a generalization? stereotype
"A generalization, usually exaggerated or oversimplified and often offensive, that is used to describe or distinguish a group."
