The article points at that through getting the government to put an open access stipulation on the spectrum, Google has almost assured itself of meeting its goal without actually having to win the bid. From the article:
Indeed, as long as this goal is met, it's hard to see why Google would want to take on the costly task of building and running its own network. But given how much is at stake when it comes to the mobile market, Google's vigilance is shrewd, even if it never planned to own the spectrum."

The latest release of Gimp (2.4) is out and it has a whole new look and feel, impressive new features like perspective cloning, scalable brushes and filters that can fix those pesky messed up shots made by amateurs like myself. Frankly, there is at least one person drooling to dive in and play."
When Apple introduced its first Intel-powered Macs in early 2006, the company did more than just launch OS X on a new platform. It also gave Mac users a brand-new way to run Windows apps. In this first of a five-part series, we outline the options for Intel Mac owners who want to run Windows on their machines. We also look at security and give a brief overview of Windows Vista.

released, but many programmers are still exploring the features
introduced in Java 5 — probably the most significant changes in

auto-boxing, foreach, varargs) generics was the most far-reaching,
introducing generic programming in a simpler, safer way than C++
templates and, unlike generics in C#, maintaining backwards (and
forwards) compatibility with existing Java code." Read on for the rest of Andrew's review.

In the network each node represents a section of the tax code, while each edge represents a reference from one section to another. The images remind me most of the images of webs woven by drugged spiders.
