It could be a power issue related to charge time, It might require that much power to run, however each shot could use more power then that overall by charging up large capacitors.

Microsoft Claims Worlds Best Search Engine Soon 536

Posted by samzenpus on Thursday March 02, 2006 @09:06AM from the google-fight dept.

kw writes "Microsoft will introduce a search engine better than Google in six months in the United States and Britain followed by Europe, its European president said on Wednesday. "What we're saying is that in six months' time we'll be more relevant in the U.S. market place than Google," said Neil Holloway, Microsoft president for Europe, Middle East and Africa. That timing would presumably coincide more or less with the launch of Vista."

Journal Journal: Piggy-Backed Legislation

Journal by cyberlotnet on Tuesday May 10, 2005 @11:40AM

Not that anyone reads my journal on a normal basis but I thought I should copy one of my recent posts here for all to see. ( Slightly edited to make more sense outside of the original article )

Useless bills that sneak by and what we can do.

Laws constantly get passed that where previously knocked down. How does this happen so often.. Piggybacking!

I don't know if anyone reads my journal but I really felt the need to rant today after reading the following

Journal Journal: Web Hosting by GlobalServers ad on Slashdot

Journal by cyberlotnet on Wednesday January 07, 2004 @12:39AM

How funny is that ad.. They talk about a server being b0rk3d and a saturated dsl pipe.. A Slashdotting..

Then they suggest you go get a 14.95 VPS server from These GlobalServer people..

14.95 gets you a whole 30gb file transfer.. A good slashdotting can wipe that away in a instant.. Not to mention I would be very interested in how well a 14.95 VPS takes a nice slashdotting.
