* msconfig * Registry cleaner * Service control manager These are all ways to get your Vista machine lean & mean.

1000s of busy bee lawyers are buzzing about their offices scheming as we speak...

Or how about Silverlight to any HTTP server? :-)

That's quite a violent approach to the problem. Invalidate all software patents? I don't think Apple would approve, as that would be the end of their business. But you really meant invalidate all of MSFT's right?

This is just more proof that we are handing our society over to the criminals!

Remember Microsoft spent alot of moolah in 1995 to create mindshare and continued spending. Who besides computer geeks know the word "Linux"? Linux literally has no mindshare in the general public. Until some company is ready to step up to the plate, no year will be the year of the Linux desktop.

MSFT and Intel are REALLY scared right now.

Feynman was just being modest. Of course natural intelligence will be the limiting factor on comprehension of material.

The "greater good" is whatever the men with guns decide it is. :-)

They're a monopoly, and are gouging the consumer. If anywhere we need the DOJ antitrust working overtime it's against the RIAA.

Uh no, I use the Enterprise transporter and insignia communicator. Flying cars is so retro.

Until we reduce military funding for useless weapons systems, we can't raise NASA's budget. Not that I think the F-22 is useless, but there is a lot of waste like why are we continuing to maintain or build new F-117A fighters if the F-22 replaces it? There is way too much redundancy in the military.

DeceptiPhone, you must destroy Optimus Prime or else!

We need to get back the ol' American ingenuity and CAN-DO attitude! Remember we Uh-Mericans can do anything!

Of course the human interface tech should be pursued, it's just that every person will decide where and when they want to use it vs a traditional UI. I know that I wouldn't want to use any of these right now. But I might want to use multi-touch UI in a few years. Brain-Computer Interface? No way. But I can see how it would have interesting military applications.
