Oddly enough, the frequency of tweeting on the account is dropping like a rock.

Gut the thing for the stepper motors. I will GLADLY pay for the shipping for you to send them to me.

Leave it to Microsoft to know that they can't beat Google it a FAIR game. So they have to lower the playing field and hurt all of us. Microsoft's next move will probably be outlawing broadband so YouTube won't work well.

Umm... I would LOVE to see a RATE of energy production move ANYTHING. I think they meant millijoule of energy. Please don't tell me that I'm the only one that saw this.

Bullshit. They were abducted or something equally strange.

That is so awesome. Too bad this is still 5 years out in the US. At least we have standardized the AC outlet side of it. We're half way there!

OH....... MY.......... GOD....... This is the stupidest thing I think I've EVER seen.

LiPo? In cellphones? I thought Lithium Polys were for stuff that requires massive amounts of current. There is a difference between Li-Po and Li-Ion, right?

Do they realize how burdening a 10 min charge time would be to the power grid?

The beta had like... NONE of these features. What next? OperaOS?

HAHA! Serves them right for thinking a 2nd server is "backed up". That's the FIRST lesson you learn in any IT training: Off-site backups!

Good luck to the admins at ever getting a job again.

A total pain, as it was SuSE 6.0 (or maybe 5.0) and it took me about 4 days to get my NIC working. I actually BOUGHT the 6 CDs that came with it. I could hardly partition my drive and so I was afraid I'd loose my windows ... oh boo hoo! It's funny, I don't remember my first girlfriend's name...

This would be so awesome. I drive maybe once a month right now, probably if i didn't have to drive across the state to visit my family, I would spend probably about $5 a year on gas

Life on earth seemed to get along without this stuff. I was kinda half asleep when I saw the finale, but wasn't it a military/executive decision to leave technology? I do agree with StandardCell about separating the colonials into technology/non-technology. I am watching the series again and it's incredible all the things they tie in to the finale. It's like they knew the story, start to end, before writing the second episode!

I just skimmed the article and didn't see anything about the OS they used. I'm betting that if they ran on Vista, they primarily use IE8 on that system. And last I heard Vista actually improves performance of applications based on how often they are used. Would this speed up overall performance or only start-up performance? I wonder if this was taken into consideration.
