Yep, *everyone* has a cell phone now, but a lot of them don't know about Airplane mode or even what roaming charges they will be facing since they don't know how to turn off celular data. I saw it first hand on a flight last week.

I shudder to think what the world will be like in 10 years.

One step closer to The Matrix movie.

Zombie process?

Yet millions and millions of locked cell phones are sold every year.

But this list is for 2012..

I'm hollding out for 4800x600.

Sorry to say, but the way things are going, that sounds overly optimistic.

I was thinking the same thing. Also, Facebook is by definition, a social networking site. Ubuntu is an operating system. I don't expect my operating system to behave like a social website.

Wish I'd known that last weekend, I installed Ubuntu on a spare machine just to check it out since I haven't tried it in over a year. As soon as I saw Amazon ad's in my search I immediately wiped the machine and installed Mint. I didn't even think of the privacy issue, but it was just horribly annoying to have to weed through ad's to find what I was looking for. Totally not the direction we want any Linux distro to be going in. I found it quite offensive.

Although Mint is not without blame either, they promote search engines which pay them, but even this is not as bad as Ubuntu.

Ahh, Arcnet! I remember playing network Doom in my parent's basement over Arcnet. The guy on the 486 always had such an advantage over the guy on the 386...

As long as he's not a mule.

Yeah, don't they know autism is caused by wifi??

It's also the Microsoft certified techs. All they know is Microsoft, and 90% of the Microsoft courses are about licensing compliance, selling and FUD.

Bit is it journalled?
