"drinkable" water has been a major issue in every age of history, that I'm aware of. It's not a lack of water, but water suitable for human consumption and/or use in many cases.

Sounds quite a bit like the INMOS Transputer http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transputer
Wonder what version of Occam (the programming language) will ship with it?

THANK YOU! Just what I was thinking.

I think the appropriate is:

(long pause) WELL!

Hmmm, bigger immediate issue if this becomes a common technology is the congestion it will cause on wifi in multi-station environments that are closely located (apartments, track homes, etc). Even single stations will have issue if more than one user is sending traffic.

In general, I think the best use of this kind of technology is business, mainly all those "consultants" that come on site to do their powerpoint presentations. Having it easier to access a projector has it's benefits, and the lag is not a big deal in that case.

In any case, I don't find Intel's solution that awe inspiring, other than getting manufactures to include it natively.

Excellent point. To bad most either don't know that their money is PURPOSELY inflated to encourage people to NOT save money, or fall for the "liquidity" excuse.

At last, I can get revenge on all those Grade School teachers that were ILLEGALLY reading me those stories in class!

I might even hope to have my parents arrested for those bedtime stories, too!

They just want to stop all the bittorrent traffic, so they can still claim to have "unlimited" download rates. Next step is to retry the "make all content providers that AREN'T us pay us to use our bandwidth".

That includes iTunes, Zune, etc.
