Since my desktop is completely-clean of any icons
Why do people do this? What's the purpose of a blank desktop? That's usable space to put stuff that's frequently used.

If tablets are made as toys for rich kids they aren't going to have value in the classroom.
Well, someone needs to work on these rich kids/later adults devices right?
Actually, they don't even sell video cards. They make GPU's that go on video cards...
Back in the day, alt.sysadmin.recovery always said this (they probably still do) all OS's suck.
Recently the wife and I tried an experiment, we put an ad on Facebook for a few days about her eBook. I targeted it to 18+ females with an interest in reading/romance/kindle and so on... In theory it's pretty cool how you can target an audience based on their profiles. Facebook will tell you dynamically exactly how many people meet the criteria as you add and remove options.

Why not deliver this rover the same way the other rovers were delivered?
I'm totally not a programmer (dipped my toes in Basica in my youth) and I used this to make a little dialer app specific to my companies PBX setup. It's working great! Unfortunately now I'll never be able to update it if need be.
I was unhappy when Byte died. I was left with only PC World and PC Magazine both of which suck. I have a new love in CPU magazine though.
Whatever happened to John Katz?
I was doing this (actually with the window defroster repair kit trick) and that was when I realized my eyesight was beginning to go farsighted. I couldn't see the traces when I held them closer to my eyes! Weird!
