I believe the N900 is soon to be discontinued. Maemo is depreciated in favour of Meego. AFAIK Meego will not be officially supported on the N900. Finally the N900 has been plagued with USB failures. There are claims that a design flaw makes the USB port weak and prone to falling off.

I don't believe that it is more natural for your eyes to read the long lines created by wide displays. This is why typesetting usually has lines less than 80 characters long. Any longer and the reader might loose the line.

Alas, while the conservatives did a 'Unite the right' and gained votes from the old conservative party and the reform party, the left has become increasingly fragmented. The Liberals, the NDP, the Green party. Even the Pirate party has a Canadian segment now. So if you lean conservative you have little choice. If you lean liberal you have so many choices. Thus the current stead of Canadian parliament.

Very true. I've seen auditors report that users default Umask was incorrectly set. When you try to explain that any user can set any Umask they want so why bother they stare at you like you just told them the Sun was blue.
At some organizations it can take months to get schedule and get approval for patching. When someone claims the business needs a service to be available all of the time it's difficult to find a business level advocate for patching.
More likely this is what happens an organization does not have processes for execution and validation. Regardless of whether they are contractors of FT's if no one audits their work this can happen.
It would seem a strange turn since the USA allowed a one of its firms to sue a foreign entity not that long ago: http://www.spamhaus.org/organization/statement.lasso?ref=3
It always disappoints me how little hemp is used in industry. It is my understanding that hemp is easy to grow, is a more durable replacement for cotton and can be a more sustainable fibre for paper.
