Or could they be bent out of shape because the competition between them, MS, and Apple is heating up. At some point, if Google wants to "ball" with the big boys in their arena they might have to start playing the same game as them. I personally enjoy Google the way they have always been but it will probably come to the point that Google can no longer survive on just the community and googliness alone.

"Freecom outs first ever USB 3.0 hard drive
Mac users will just have to wait."

Mac is now being treated like "the Man" while Microsoft is becoming cool again with their ploy to "leak" windows 7 all those months ago. It pays to make people fill l337 and to not create a stereo type of latte sipping bohemian super artists like Apple has.

Don't get me wrong, I don't hate Mac, I just think it's funny.

me....oh wait nevermind, trying to produce one now.

Haven't you seen the movie Pi?....math will allow us to predict the future of the stock market and give us a better understanding in regards to Kabbalah But in all seriousness, very interesting just don't see the practicality of this issue. But as someone already stated, I'm not a big math geek, I'm more of a wannabe and a poser.

Isn't having a decentralized type command structure what makes Linux and other Open Source projects so great? Just thinking out loud...

If I were to ever become a vegetable I ask only one thing...please read me all the kung-fu books while I'm out so when I come back to 100% (because I will) I can wake up being the most bad ass ever, like Neo in the Matrix. That's not to much to ask for, is it?
