Won't matter much if the links are cut. A radio station could at least install a temporary antenna if it doesn't have one on its roof.

"The core2 was introduced in 2006. - Almost a decade ago and core2 based computers are still quite damn fast today."
Agreed. My hands-me down i3-2100 is faster than the 3.2 C2D it replaced, yes, but I didn't fall off my chair. Anything more recent than a P4 will be usable for everyday tasks for most people.
As for AMD going down, I really don't want to go back to paying a thousand dollars for a CPU...
And YOU just made my day
"If the media companies had any say in the matter, buying a CD to rip the songs to MP3 to play on your portable device would be illegal."
The only reason it isn't is because it doesn't have any encryption to break like DVD/Bluray discs.

Seriously, as others mentioned, one home, one offsite in a bank security box. a portable external HDD will fit in the smallest ones for big backups, or a USB thumb drive/sd card..
Just RAID 75 of them (and get a really big pigeon)
Even if He was naturalized two years before the bombings, he should lose that privilege. How much will it cost to keep him on death row?
Better yet, leave him in a locked room with the victim's families for a couple of hours.
If the device becomes online without you consent in the future, it means it's not in your hands anymore. Thus *any* device will be vulnerable to prying eyes.
Chevy's Volt can recharge its batteries too. In fact, most of the times the ICE acts as a generator, and under certain circumstances (High output needed while charging for example) it can be physically linked to the drivetrain,
I wouldn't be so sure, Apple has proven many times they can switch OS and Architectures in a pretty seamless way.
Apple ][->68K via expansion card or emulation, 68K->PPC via Classic or Fat Binaries, OS9->OSX via emulation and PPC->x86 via Rosetta or Universal Binaries.
In latest OSX versions, the scroll bars act the same as on iDevices, and since iOS is based on OSX, It wouldn't be too hard for them to switch OS and/or architectures again (or emulate iOS apps on OSX).
Time will tell I guess...
I wouldn't be so sure. It wouldn't be the first time MS failed with a product line. Zune, Windows CE PDAs, Windows Phone, Tablet PCs...
iOS and Android devices are here to stay. Most people using tablets don't need X86 compatibility on a portable device (that's what laptops are for). Tablets are used to consume content and view documents and the current crop is perfectly capable of doing so.
Even if that's a clever idea, I'm pretty sure code doesn't allow for dimmers to be used on electrical outlets.
