I guess they are left out on purpose. Those who are seeking cheap flights don't really need info about expensive flights. If you don't care about price, then just book directly from your favourite booking agency. On a sidenote, the service is most of the time identical across all the airlines, with a few exceptions, like not getting a meal during a flight (Ryanair!).

You didn't state where you live, but if you are in Europe, or travelling inside of Europe, then the best tool I've found is Azuon. It includes all the features you mentioned and more. Azuon is not free. If you want a quick and free solution then ebookers website offers in my opinion best free service, though, not nearly as good as Azuon.

Take it easy, please. On the web forums and Internet in general there are so many people who are not native english speakers. Of course there are times when you can definitely tell that the person didn't put much thought in whatever he/she was writing, but in many cases incorrect grammar does not really tell you about writer's intellect. It takes many years of practice to become fluent in any foreign language. Most of the time learners will never become as good as the native speakers. It's a better idea to judge people more by their message, not by the form.

So excuse me for my non-perfect english, I come from Russia, live in Finland and currently studying in Portugal. We just don't practice it in our daily lives ;)

You are comparing Windows XP (released in 2001) with KDE 4 (4.0 released in 2008).

I honestly don't know much about Windows, because I don't use it, but your comparison made me doubt if you really know what you are talking about.

Microsoft has got a couple of newer versions of their OS, latest of them is named Windows 7, which I heard does a many things better than it's ancestors, also having many UI improvements. ;)

That was quite an uninformed comment. Pressing Alt on Windows is same as Ctrl+F2 on OS X - you focus on menubar. Then you can use arrow keys to move around or press F, S or whatever you want to move directly to desired item.
We live and learn.

I believe OP was referring to trolleybuses. Trams need rail tracks to be built into the road, but trolleybus is just like a normal bus on rubber tires, except that it uses electricity as a power source and constant connection to power line is required. There is no need to tear up the road for trolleybuses, but the power line must be built.

The advantage ultracapasitor bus has over trolleybus is that it can drive further away (as far as capacitor allows) from it's normal route than trolleybus.

This is because Microsoft has around 90% market share in OS business, while Apple doesn't.

Time Machine doesn't require a second disk. If you really want to run it on the same physical drive, a secondary partition can be used.
That's a really bad idea though. I've had several hard drive failures (I guess I was unlucky) and believe me, they do come unexpected!

If you don't want to carry around an external USB drive for backups, then a large enough (32GB) USB stick or SD card (if it's newer MacBook Pro) can be used with Time Machine, unless you need to backup a lot of data (like HD video content).

More like a browser on Linux.

FYI Volvo is also Swedish ;)

I think the parent comment was intended to be mostly Funny, but I don't have any MPs so I'll reply. :)

I'm not a religious person, but I think generally you don't have to pay money to anyone (ex. church) to have a faith in God. Many "religious addicts" are in fact quite happy without having to give all, or any of their money to the "dealers" (with exception of some extreme cases). The happiness of a drug addict basically ends when the money ends.

Well, I actually lied there a bit. The man pages are my Holy Bible ;)

It's understandable you're so annoyed with all the buzz and news about iPhone. But surely you can do something about the situation. Why not contribute some news about what exciting stuff you do with your phone? If it's anything related to robotics/controlling your tech with your phone, I will be one to read it.
Obviously this article is aimed at people who either own iPhone (hence the 'your iPhone') or people who are generally interested in this topic. I don't own iPhone (and I'm not planning to buy one), but I find the idea interesting. If it's not for you, what can you do? ;-)

Regarding iPod docks I have to disagree (again, I don't own iPod either). You've got to understand that iPod is the probably the most popular mp3-player out there and with the special dock you can for example control the player remotely - something you cannot do if you only use standard mini-jack. Many people actually want that functionality, and that's not a very good reason to get pissed of. It's like getting pissed that most people listen to pop music and hence shops sell more pop instead of my preferred hard rock (I don't know if that's actually true, but I hope it gets the point across ;-)

At least they die happy.

It depends on what you are working on. In the projects where you are building only one, large machine, you only get to run some generic test desks while in the office, trying to make sure the things won't break when you put the code it into the real hardware. There are times when it is almost impossible to test the code completely for the particular type of machine, until you have actually built the real hardware and got it running. We often end up in the field with a laptop in our hands doing the final tweaks and calibrating the machine. Sometimes there are things that you simply cannot predict while writing the code sitting in the office.

Of course you can try to create a "perfect simulator" for the particular project, but often it's just more practical to go out in the field and do the final tweaking there.
