Sure sentence somewhere there. But not able +.

Seriously, put the mobile down, and keep your hands on the steering wheel and eyes on the road when you're driving.

Any discount for local pickup?

I'm assuming that material containing large amounts of DNA gummed up a cooling fan, causing the overheating. :)

It's my understanding that UL was and is funded by insurance companies. Companies that urn the UL label are cheaper to insure because they have fewer law suits.Companies that don't have higher insurance rates and find it harder to compete. Sounds like a reasonable situation where market forces work to regulate the market place. OSHA appears to be redundant here.

In a normal situation, I would say the workers are free to go work for an employer that offers better working conditions. La Boetie in his essay "Discourse on Voluntary Servitude" wrote:

Obviously there is no need of fighting to overcome this single tyrant, for he is automatically defeated if the country refuses consent to its own enslavement: it is not necessary to deprive him of anything, but simply to give him nothing; there is no need that the country make an effort to do anything for itself provided it does nothing against itself. It is therefore the inhabitants themselves who permit, or, rather, bring about, their own subjection, since by ceasing to submit they would put an end to their servitude.

Couldn't the same be said of an employer that holds that much power? Do you take up the yoke for security or do you take yourself someplace else? We always have a choice.

I'm not sure how latency would compare, but 4G is supposed to be achieve speeds of 275 Mbit/s downstream and over 75 Mbit/s upstream. That should be more than enough for just browsing the web. Probably wouldn't want to do any "heavy internetting" with it. (Of course, that may be different in practice...)

Don’t worry. The patent lawyers will already do that.
On second thought: DO worry! Do worry very much!

I think I'm leaning towards Android too. I'd love to have an iPhone if they'd fix the main bugbears I have with it, simply because it's what my other half uses and I have my eye on a B&W Zeppelin Mini dock that we can both use. I could live without the fully open platform if they gave us flash and a decent camera, so I'll probably wait and see what they say come summer - if the iPhone 4 or whatever it's called by that time can fix these niggles, they'll probably get my custom out of sheer convenience, if not I have to say the likes of the Nexus or the HTC Legend are very tempting right now even without the bonus of the open platform.

Some day Arpanet may become a primary source of information for people. ...But maybe some government will try to use it for censorship!
We should keep mailing floppies!

I've implemented this solution for some time with 100% success. I recommend it to all my friends, colleagues, and family; many of them use it as well with great success. The idea is apparently so great that I really should apply for a patent, but I will share it with you at no charge.

My brilliant idea is called "don't watch it". The follow-up idea is "don't care about it". If you can hold to both of those ideas I can promise your life will be easier.

The Ubiquity radios were seriously considered, but I definitely wanted MIMO and simultaneous 2.4 and 5.2 GHz in one box.

Remember, this is all volunteer run, so doubling the number of APs to setup, tear down, and manage was something I wanted to avoid. Also, the Ubiquity gear mostly is not table-top form-factor. It's mean for pole-mounting. Not a good match for our needs.

As far as doing a crap job of serving both bands, that's been my experience with very cheap units. These units on the other hand, both the Netgear and DLink, have performed admirably.

I've found the worst cause of this is if updates aren't pushed out, but rely on application updaters, Adobe releases a new version of Flash or Reader, user installs it blindly hitting "Next", Google Toolbar gets installed and the web browser comes to a full and complete stop. I've seen this happen on SEVERAL occasions

This. We use Windows servers, but for designers and other people who store important files on their local machine rather than the server, after several hard drive crashes that proved they were disobeying the directive to not do this, we now employ folder redirection. How this works is that in our domain policy, certain folders (such as My Documents) and files (Outlook PST's) are actually stored on the file server, even though it appears to be "local" to the user. We also use the offline files feature and file synchronization in the case of notebook users so that they may have access to the files when not on our LAN.

I'm sure there is some equivalent way to do this on a Mac.

The firefox addon Live HTTP Headers will provide all the redirect information you'll need although it's not the sort of thing an average user will be able to decipher.
