Yeah I know. I have an XS (yes, I know it's a cheap body, I want to upgrade to the 60D) and with the kit lens the 18mm "wide" angle becomes ~28mm because of the 1.6x crop factor.

I'm pretty sure they made the 7D just for this, because it shoots 8 FPS but has a crop sensor so it would be ideal for sports, wildlife, etc. Like I said above I have the XS but my 200mm becomes 320mm with the crop factor. :)

Canon's EF lenses are designed for full frames but can also be mounted on APS-C crop sensor bodies. EF-S is meant for crop sensor bodies, therefore cannot be mounted on FF's.

The resolution part depends on the film, obviously. I know Kodak Tmax has smaller grains than "regular film" so it has higher effective resolution. "Standard" film will get you to about 24 MP if I've done my research correctly. At this point I think it boils down to the scanner if you plan to scan prints or negatives. ;)

Canon DSLR's with crop sensors have APS-C sensors which are 25.1 × 16.7 mm so you were pretty close :)

Yea...Seriously.

You are just repeating what I said. I know more people are killed with cars. I know more people are killed with hammers. Those are NOT meant to kill, they have other uses, unlike firearms.

A Car is not built so it can kill people. Firearms are. But ok, you want to compare guns to cars? Fine. Let's treat all guns just as we do cars: mandatory test before being allowed to use one, yearly registration (including fees), you'll have to get your gunner's license renewed every few years, and if you're carrying and acting in any way suspicious, a cop may give you a gun-side sobriety test. Also, you must have your gun registration and insurance (that's right, you'll need liability insurance) with you at all times.

This sounds like something the NRA would say.... "WE MUST DO ANYTHING TO KEEP ALL GUNS"

Wasn't a patent troll shown in a previous Slashdot article called "Project Paperless LLC"? And this is called Paperless 2013 project? I assume they are completely unrelated, correct?

"Boeing said it was researching an advanced way to test wireless signals in airplanes" With potatoes. LOL

No, and that's my final answer. What a horrible idea. Why doesn't Microsoft stick with one and make it rock solid? Like they did with XP. Doing this will make developers go nuts because they will have to build a new version every time a new version of windows come out. They are just trying to copy Apple's business model and they are doing it WRONG.

I read somewhere else that he made an illegal pass on the right.

In my opinion, it depends. For a single person coding and making some program (doesn't even have to be in a company) and not planning on putting on sourceforge or something, it probably doesn't matter. In a company where code is shared and debugged between lots of people, yes it does. So all in all, formatting probably does matter in the long run.

Microsoft needs to expand and FIX (tons of bugs on my Win 7 machine) Windows 7 instead of pushing out Windows 8. For one thing, it looks to me like Windows 7 is much more favorable than 8 among the general public. Microsoft could probably pick up more revenue from 7 because it IS favorable to 8. I have also heard it is not as intuitive as 7, probably because 8 is designed mainly for tablets (c'mon MS, the majority of computers out there will be laptops/desktops, not tablets). Though I don't know if this is completely true. RIP start menu.

Facebook will already sue any employer who asks an employee for the password. I guess it is different from being an actual law but I would expect Facebook has some pretty damn good lawyers...
