While we're at it why don't we complain that the CO2 laser is going to increase gobal warming

Of course the thing is that after so many generations of assholes perhaps there's an asshole genetic trait that develops that could very well have been created by choices of people.. what to do what to do.... So wait... rock breaks scissors but scissors cuts paper!!!... and paper covers rock... Kif! We have a conundrum.

No.. you have to prove that its a genetic trait. Your lineage were likely assholes because of asshole treatment from previous parents due to societal factors. I'm not saying it makes sense.. by the way

So much of this speculation is pointless, because you can bet that Verizon will do what it takes to kill free GPS on their android. I have never seen a company try to squeeze so much out of their customers by locking down standard products. I joined them because my family did but i am having serious regrets now.

The second you reference michael moore you immediately lose all credibility.. sorry!

Touch typing class got me started using the correct technique... but what gave me the practice to become good at it was chatting with the girls ;)

I'd say mod parent down -5 because he/she is clearly troll... "The east and west coasts want to keep the existing power/profit structures, the middle America just wants "science" in the dust bin and back to safe, faith based engineering subjects." What the heck is this person talking about? Clearly this person is jaded about our current society and has lost perspective and therefore needs to categorize massive numbers of people to try and make it "fit together". I bet his/her next move will move will be to Montana to start assembling packages to be mailed.

Wifi-fi ??

Its aggravating that IT people who go to Slashdot are so afraid of learning new (possibly more intuitive and simple) ways of using software.

What you've just said, is one of the most idiotic things I've ever heard. Everyone on this thread is now dumber for having read it. I award you no points and may god have mercy on your soul.

What should they do? Stop making new versions of their software? Stop selling updated software? Why would we want them to stop making progress. You guys can all keep your office 97's,word perfect 1.0's and your open office's and that's fine. Why criticize a company for something every other software company does? They are more ripable for their strong-arm and anti-competitive practices than for improving their software. Yes yes we know you're crusty veterans of software and you think that your opinions matter the most but according to this first report, Office 2010 is indeed an improvement in many ways (despite it requiring more than 256k memory).

As every good commander knows, one of the most important tactics in army is the element of surprise... SURPRISE!!!

... 3d that's my apartment number, I'll be waiting...

i think that Microsoft's patents are shallow and pedantic.

"Della! You're putting me through hella!"
