Canada is one of my favorite US States!

This new BIOS of the future will actually be stored on a hard disk and will also rely on on-board flash to boot it. This new OS^H^HBIOS will also have a lot of built-in features that allow for the efficient use of the applications...

You link to to this but fail to explain or postulate whether this scenario falls into the Broken Windows Fallacy. There is a mathematical formula to determine the economic benefit of "breaking stuff" to the business economy... In some cases, if the formula does not prove beneficial, it falls under the "Broken Window Fallacy".

My XP box typically gets itself hosed after about 10 days.

Microsoft announced that there will only be one public RC for Windows 7.

There... fixed that for you.

$180M at the box office does not equal $180M for the studio. The cinema's cut can range, but is typically around 45% (From what I've read on the intarweb)... So the studios may have broken even.

Come on... really? $180M at the box office does not mean $180M for the studio. Cinemas split the box office proceeds 50/50 with the Studio. So, 90M for the studio... they haven't broken even yet.

I've definitely used Thunderbird IMAP with Exchange 2007... Had to muck with the secure connection settings in TB to make it work.

Then don't upgrade... Leave Firefox 3.0.x on there.

The truth comes out, but was hard to find in the article...

Colonel Hugh 'Slip' Slater, 87, was commander of the Area 51 base in the 1960s. Thornton 'T.D.' Barnes, 72, was an Area 51 special-projects engineer. Xorbz Blazzeet, 179, from the Orion system was dissected and stored in an Area 51 freezer for 16 years. And Harry Martin, 77, was one of the men in charge of the base's half-million-gallon monthly supply of spy-plane fuels.

Are they talking about Quantum Hard Drives or Tape drives? I thought they stopped making hard drives.

The president fired a CEO in private industry and we're interested in a gift exchange? Very scary...

>And is the FDA going to foist it on the unconscious without consent, as they did PolyHeme? No.. definitely not. Next time they will say "Raise your hand if you don't want this blood substitute!"
