Seeing as how they already announced the new Doctor last week and all?

Wordpad is basically Write- they more or less just renamed the application for 95.

So basically something we haven't invented the technology for is impossible until the technology is invented.

I'm so shocked.

Gimp is not just not "exactly like photoshop", it's not layed out like any other Windows application. If you're on Mac or Linux is fine, but someone accustomed to Gimp will struggle needlessly with the (incidentally monstrously ugly [to the point of making it difficult to use]) interface. Gimpshop and gimphoto are fine but are several major revisions behind gimp proper.

Google wants to close android in order to keep the manufacturers from closing android further.
Openness advocates are fighting to protect the rights of the manufacturers (that of closing Android)

I'm not sure who to root for here, so I'll just say GO LOCAL SPORTS TEAM

Eh, these things happen. You probably should have simplified it for something like this.

Your numbers looked good until you got to the DSi. You just estimated that 57% (172k/300k) of DSi owners are left-handed, (and then dismissed it because of market size!) One of your sales numbers is off by a lot. For simplicity, we could just assume 30k, 10% of DSi sales. I suspect it's a little higher, since among gaming systems, the DS in general has more left-handed owners than other consoles since there is usually pretty good support for moving buttons to the other side if you want to use a stylus with your left hand. (I'm a left-handed DS owner myself) I have the impression the DSi download market is pretty low in general.

You didn't read the article either? It says he has a pen name for stuff he doesn't want attached to him but he couldn't use it because there was too much money involved. Not a situation I've heard of, but it might have just been the studio's way of saying no.

Some smartphones don't store the maps on the phone, they pull the map data from the internet as they go. You should always at least have the option of caching the maps, but it isn't always default. So in some cases the phone may know the GPS location but not what's around it.

Think about it... you are getting standard edition for "free". Google wouldn't do unless some non-trivial number of users is READING and CLICKING on those ads. If your secretary is working on a budget spreadsheet, and gets distracted by an google ad in the corner of her spreadsheet, gets distracted and clicks on it, and goes browsing for 20 minutes as a result... that costs you money. And THAT is PRECISELY what your beloved partner google is counting on. THAT is their entire business model. Give you the app for free, and then extract a profit by luring your staff to click ads instead of work.

There are no ads in google docs.

While we're extolling the benefits of nicely contoured mice, the Logitec MX 610 is a similar model to this but is also available in contours for left-handed people. This probably doens't help the original poster, but may be useful information to others in this thread. I've been very happy with mine.

I'm not exactly sure how it works in Canada, but in many places in the US, speeding tickets will affect your car insurance at least as much as a minor accident. Get a couple of them close together and they could consider you a risky driver.
