There's quite a bit of rounded edges on that ship. Watch out, Apple might sue.

Is is a reasonable price maybe 4 years ago. The prices of 16:10's haven't come down at all, while you can buy 16:9's on sale at around $140 (or less).

We really would like to be able to buy 16:10's at around that price. even if at 11% higher price for the extra screen real estate, it should only cost about $155. The price on this website is twice that. It's NOT reasonable because it's at a premium compared to the other ratios.

With all that compensation, he can probably just retire and live a good life.

Or maybe go work full time for the drilling company.

Trinitrons! I finally tossed out my 17" Sony Trinitron monitor earlier this year. It served me well from 1997-2011!

Where have you been?

15" 1024x768 TFT LCD screens used to cost $300+ circa 2004.

I'm typing this message on a 27" 2560x1440 S-IPS LED LCD screen that also costs $300 from South Korea. (It's a bit of an exception, but it was still obtainable here from the U.S.)

There should be a fine against the lawyers holding a secret meeting to artificially create legal events that require the service of lawyers. But then we'll need meta-lawyers!

Bitter that he didn't earn twice as much for the first 28 years?

Ummm, we got there. Voyager 1 and 2? Galileo? No we didn't get into the core, but we can send spacecrafts there just fine.

If we know for certain that there is no rocky core, then it would be pointless to build probes to try to reach/hit the core eh?

The corporation is not the same as the country it is from. Of course the CCP may be in control of the company. But they would have to obey U.S. laws if they were to operate on U.S. soil. WIth that said, I'll give them a try if they offer $5 unlimited voice and data plans ;-) At lease until other carriers lower their prices. Competition is a good thing.

Alright! Another 3 years of my life is about to disappear!

When I am coding in Python, I wear pyjamas. But otherwise I switch to regular pajamas. :)

Where is Linux??? It's not exactly a company, but it's also another "World View", if you will, of computer software.

Such a functionality would require a change in the silicon. If you are going to modify the silicon, you might as well make the fix to make all 4 ports problem free.

Though there are a lot of motherboard variations, they are all built with mostly standard parts with well published design guidelines, e.g. an Intel reference design. I would say most boards out there are simply a small variation from the reference design. The chipsets are also likely designed with the tolerance for trace length, clock, voltage variations, etc.
