I agree, it won't happen. What we will see is a future in cashless world reserve electronic currency to replace the US Dollar by the world Elites. As the disaster of the EURO shows, if you can get governments to give up their own currency, you can dictate what they must do to continue to receive loans. Safely out of government's control, the elites will back it by gold/silver so it will be stable in price and against inflation.
AROS team didn't want to use Linux (although the AROS Developers use Linux to develope AROS), but Commodore USA is using Mint called CommodoreOS Vision (currently in Beta) for their new Commodore Amigas: http://www.commodoreusa.net/CUSA_OS_Vision.aspx
Today the ISS, tomorrow LV-426!
Depends on the location and type of tree. I had friends who were fined by FL DEP for taking down some trees on their 3 acre lot that their house is on after the trees were dead or badly damaged after two hurricanes hit the area. Taking down exotic trees, not a problem.
Site was just moved to a new server yesterday. Admin has been notified, thanks for noting the issue.

US Senate never ratified the International Criminal Court treaty, so it doesn't apply to US DoD. OTOH, I can see global condemnation and banning of violent video games coming as games become more and more realistic.
That brings into play the hotly debated Abiotic Oil theory. Conspiracy rumors have been the Deep Horizon disaster was based on BP hitting Abiotic oil and the pressure was too great for the faulty design and faulty materials used. Rumors also have been the Russians tapped into Abiotic oil during their deep drilling experiments. If this paper is correct that complex carbon chains are common in the universe, I'm wondering if the oil companies have known about it on Earth and didn't want to tell us about it till they got the price of crude high enough? That might explain the Liberty Rig that was erected about this time last year off the North Slope on a gravel island that was also known as Gull Island. Liberty Rig can drill 8 miles for slant drilling, that might be deep enough to hit Abiotic oil locked just at or just below the Earth's crust.
It's a 400MHz PPC Limebook as per: http://amigaworld.net/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?mode=viewtopic&topic_id=34459&forum=33&start=140&viewmode=flat&order=0#634010
There has been a open source version of AmigaOs in development since the late 1990s and it has several distro like: http://www.icarosdesktop.org/ AROS runs on x86, x86_64, PPC, M68000 and ARM (hosted).
It won't be an netbook "Amiga" as Hyperion does not have a license for the "Amiga" name for hardware. Hyperion can only use "AmigaOne" as it's official name for it's hardware series. The only company that has an official license to call their hardware Commodore Amiga is http://www.commodore.net/ who are using a customized Mint OS distro.
As a BB owner, why bother at all? Either they have the person hooked on a corp account, hooked on BBM, or waiting to get off a contract to buy a iPhone or Droid. BB will not be my next phone.
Wait till they add GPS for real fun and excitement. Little store and forward of a picture of the driver's face once the GPS speed reading goes over the posted speed limit which is uploaded at the next toll plaza.
