The MythBusters episode where they blew a hole in a STATIONARY pressurized plane? If I open the windows in a STATIONARY car nothing scary happens. If I open the windows in a car MOVING at 55+ mph then there's a a lot of wind. So if you blow a hole in a STATIONARY plane nothing is going to happen. But if you blow a hole in a MOVING plane flying at 300mph then....

So no more using the metal case as ground? No more anti-static protection from the case?

No, I can't name similar flaws from their competitors. I can create columns in Word or OpenOffice. I can have a calendar within my group in Yahoo groups. My point is that Google is creating products and selling them (like Google Docs) to people yet they are aware that the feature sets are severely limited. They need to devote more time and energy to fleshing their products out methinks.

Trivial features? The ability to sort email is a trivial feature? The ability to create columns in a Word Processor is a trivial feature?

So everything that Google's touched has turned to gold? Like Gmail where you can't sort emails by sender or by subject? Where emails whose subject lines match existing label filters still end up in the Spam folder? Where searching doesn't always work in the spam folder? Or Google Groups where (last time I checked about a year ago) you couldn't integrate a Google Calendar into your Google Group and, instead, had to use an external link? Or Google Documents where you can't create columns in a text document? Or Google Maps where, up until this year, you couldn't clear your search results without having to refresh the page? My point is that Google starts projects but doesn't finish them. When Google actually decides to focus on completing existing projects then they'll start turning things to gold. Until then....

These were Dell Optiplex 280 systems if I remember correctly. This is relatively old news and the only new part of this whole story seems to be the lawsuit. It was a water damaged shipment of capacitors that Dell bought at a huge discount. They knew from the beginning that the capcatiros would either leak or mountain-top and waited for 2 years to initiate a recall.

There are cell phone watches out there. It's just that the demand for something so small is not around as it's not very convenient to use.
