Absolutely right! I haven't flown since pre-September 2001, and have no plans of doing so anytime soon, or in the future. I'd rather drive then deal with the security theater and the possibility that I'd be harassed, even though I have nothing to hide or have done nothing wrong. I've heard way too many stories of innocent people being detained for just having a similar name to someone "of interest".. I'll drive.

Sometimes we'd play that you could use the name of anything or anybody that you could see in the room. so "Sony" would be ok as would "Bill" "William" .. whatever - but you'd have to be able to point it out in the room.

"But there's a problem: few of these Android apps are free software." *CITATION NEEDED*

Take a look in the app market. MANY of the apps are free, and there is usually a "just as good" free option for most pay apps.

but if we never build it, and try it out, we'll never know if it's better.

I always wondered when we'd finally switch from the same ol' method of controlling a car we've been using... well for the most part from the beginning of cars.

I'm sure someone with the time to do it and some minor mechanical and electrical skills could make a modification to a car to function this way. Would be a fun project I think.

Agreed with your points, but Internet Explorer is a piece of crap littered with bugs as well.. but yet many didn't use netscape (or even now still an alternate browser).

Point is, majority of people don't understand that they have choice because they are lead to believe that they do not.

The way I see it, this may have merit, similarly to Netscape vs. MS. - Why would anyone bother buying a tivo when they can just get it right with their cable bill?

thank you then for being a good juror.

It's because of you that we can't have nice things in Linux.
