As the supply of data center space dwindles, the price will go up. When it goes up enough, it will become profitable to build new data centers, and it will happen. It's the economy, people.

Um, Trebek doesn't compete. He's the host of the show. The summary is stupid. The computer will be playing against other human contestants.
P.S. If you haven't watched "Firefly" / "Serenity" yet, you're missing the best show that was ever on Sci-Fi.
Well, I don't know about other people who didn't watch this show, but _I_ stopped watching it halfway through the pilot episode. I was just baffled by the technology available to the characters. They have ships that can move from planet to planet with relative ease (and seemingly great speed) and yet they still used 6-shooters and shotguns as their weapon of choice. WTF Mate?
If you watched more than 30 minutes, you might understand. Why is that not obvious?
It was a joke, son. Relax.
Oh, come on, there a lot of things more important than salary. I haven't done it recently but in 2004 I gave up $10k/year because:
I would have given up that job too. Just to pay my mortgage and support my family, I think I'd need at least $40k.
The bias for the media to highlight national candidates is a symptom, not the cause. Since voters don't vote for local electors, there's no point for the media to cover them, right?
You've failed to recognize that people today still have no clue about the candidate they're voting for. There are enough links to Howard Stern in other threads. If things worked correctly, we would be still voting for electors on the local level, and electors would be people who can be trusted to make the decision and who will take the time to educate themselves about the candidates. As it is, people make snap decisions without any knowledge, and that's why we get the candidate that has the best ad campaign.
Second that. A tiny laptop that's as powerful as an iPhone would be fine with me.
