Hell yes, tablets are PCs, they've always been PCs and always will be PCs. The only thing that's making you think otherwise is the vendor lock-in to their closed ecosystems.

This seems as good a place to ask as any:Is there a way to make this game play more like the original? I understand that the shadows and dynamic lighting have been ripped out, the whole thing is brighter and that "duct tape mod" is forced on you. All the hype over the last few months has made me want to play the original game again, complete with the "Oh, hell I can't see shit, what am I shooting at? I hope this works. I need new trousers. Again." vibe, not a dumbed down, shiny "remaster". Comparisons I've seen say that the old game struggles to hit 30fps on current gen hardware, whereas this code base can easily hit 100+ fps on an average rig. Is there a mod (yet) that gives us the best of both worlds?

Isn't 12.04 supposed to be the next LTS release? Seems like they've gone far wayward from their original goals if they're introducing such huge new projects into what's supposed to be a stable, reliable release that enterprises can trust. It would be a better idea to introduce it in 12.10, surely?

That doesn't make "Android" any less "ready for the Enterprise", though does it? The Enterprise in question could go out and buy up a hundred Galaxy Nexuses to give out to its staff, regardless of how many are currently floating around in the wild.

In the UK, we have the Privacy In Electronic Communications (EC Directive) Regulations 2003 and the Data Protection Act 1998, which, between them, legally guarantee a certain expectation of privacy from nosy sysadmins or managers. There are some good laws here, thankfully; employees should always know their rights.

Why do they call it the Xbox 720? Because when you see it, you'll turn 720 degrees and walk away.

First Kernel.org and now this? Has someone got it in for FLOSS at the moment?

I had a feeling that was going to be the case, which is why I put the question mark in; I haven't been keeping up on the minor details for a long time.

Aren't the odd decimal places development branches? Hence 2.4 -> 2.6. Ergo 3.1 is the ongoing development branch that will one day be released as 3.2.
