Mark has gone on record stating how he doesn't like having too options...
Too many options is why I was drawn to Linux in the first place.

Microsoft, why don't you just write some QUALITY software for the iPad instead of trying to go head on in competition? That way, the more iPads Apple sells, the more software you sell. It's win-win.
I would rather that they focus on quality software, period. I don't understand their frustration of lacking a market share in almost every aspect of consumer technology. IMHO they need to get back to basics.
sorry the NASA channel can't hold your attention like Starship Troopers, Doctor Who, or Jack Bauer killing space terrorists, but this is what space travel is about. it's expensive, dangerous, careful, and this time, really shitty.
What I believe he is saying is where are the articles about NASA breakthroughs in science, whether new technology or general discovery? NASA now is just a dinosaur waiting for ze meteors. When the space program first started the 'geniuses' were fresh out of college grads full of innovation; we can all appreciate the fruit of their labor. I dare you to step in any NASA lab (or in fact any gov't research lab) and find that now.
I wouldn't want my tax dollars to be wasted frivolously...but nowadays that's a moot point.
