I bought a Dell Mini 9 to become my less expensive e-book reader. I open my books, PDF format, rotate them 90', and then hold the netbook sideways. I read with the screen on the left side and use the arrow keys on the right side with my thumb.

It's worked great, even is in color (eat that kindle), costs $100 less than the Kindle 2, holds thousands of books, connects to the internet, and I didn't have to hack it to get Linux on it.

Considering that most keyboards are dirtier than toilets it's more like sharing the same toilet without flushing but letting them go first.

Just don't insert anything into the wrong port. You'll either find it warm, or friggn' burning.

Thank or you need new friends....

In that case I also heard that the swine flu has spread to pigs AND Beer!

Yay, beer and bbq ribs! Thank god for mass hysteria!

Unfortunately when human hair is combined with the penis the effect is a 30% reduction in visible growth.

No wonder Ruby people look so dazed when using the technology.

Again, i wonder what their definition of 'application' is? I would think one could create an 'application' that is able to spawn threads running any other application the users chooses. Just create a 'jump panel' listing all the program you'd like to run and just spawn the processes to start those applications from within one process. The netbooks are only single core so performance will take a hit, but at the same time it's a netbook. It's not meant to do anything incredibly useful other than read PDF books, check the internet, or whatever have you. Considering IE8 spawns off a new thread for each tab open as does Chrome and others i'd assume my suggestion would be possible.

Would you like a hug?
-Your new Republican friends.

Fantastic, so the family a little down on money can get discount sperm to have a family. No doubt it's clearly cheaper to start a family when you're strapped with cash.

I mean the guy did survive not one, but two atomic attacks. So that makes him either the unluckiest guy for being at the most unfortunate places at the most unfortunate time, or the luckiest to have survived both.

When I served my Sgt's last name was Slaughter.

At work one day, the day before the release of a product, my hard-drive went out. I kept it on my desk for a few months to serve as a warning to others. It was at this time I discovered that hard driver platters also make great coasters with the often flat rounded top. If you open them up you can also find a great mirror that also doubles as a novelty to look at. Just put the cover back on, just use one screw, and you can keep dust from dirtying your mirror up. Don't get me started on just how hard it is to clean the thing if you get fingerprints on it.

Besides the novelties of the hard-drives a friend of mine made a few trinkets from USB drives. Between the necklace, don't ask, they were used to store games for different consoles in emulator (SNES, Sega, Nintendo) form. A good spray job (red, yellow, green) to distinguish the consoles they were great for short term fun. Since they held enough to be useful might as well make them handy. Along with that if you setup a little net at the desk they double as mini basketballs. I've accidentally run over mine with a car, washed it twice, and they keep trucking. You could even get a USB hub, plug them all in, and use them as tiny hard-drives. Anyway, back to work I go.

I'd probably notice a difference too if I switched from my 1TB drive to a 64gig SSD drive when it comes to IO response. Just like I'd save more money riding a bike compared to driving. Neat tech, but i'll wait till the size/price catches up with conventional drives.

What they could do is create a new beverage company like what is starting in India. An upstart beverage company in India is using cow urine as the key ingredient in their new beverage said to be in direct competition with foreign cola companies like Coke and etc. Ideally we could see a new market spring up with 'organic' label for human pee power drinks. People would buy it because it's organic, and if i've learned anything from the "everybody poops" books it's that everyone also pees. I can see limitless potential. We could get astronaut endorsements because they'd be our 'celebrity' mascots, and of course a target customer since they drink pee in space. I can see the logo being a recycle sign with a person shadowed in the background. So it's making the direction from the top to bottom, and back up again! It would be glorious, and there are more of us than cows so i can see a unlimited resource with a vast marketability. ... I've had too many Bawls drinks today, back to the cube.
