Maybe they have an EDU license? http://www-03.ibm.com/systems/...

Saw this coming a long time ago (well at least 9 months ago). So...roll your own: http://warped.org/blog/2013/07...

Your right, it wasn't on ESPN. EPSN doesn't really cover racing or any non-basketball/football/baseball/hockey sports. NBC Sports actually did broadcast all the 2013 F1 practices/qualifying/races live. The bigger ones were even on the NBC national channel (available over OTA).

...and she has experience with the US legal system!

You do realize that the #2 market share in the UK is Vauxhall (GM) right? #1 is Ford. http://www.am-online.com/new-car-sales-figures/ They have efficient cars, just not so much in the US. The US market doesn't want efficient cars. They want giant trucks and SUVs and V8s (still.)

Can someone explain what was actually stolen from RSA that allowed them to break into the networks? From what I understand even if you had had a duplicate SecurID number generator, you would still need the username and securid password (fixed code + random 6 digit) associated with the account to get into the network. Once you are into the network you probably also need a username (same as above) and user password to access the machines. This sounds more like the attackers must have had significant insider knowledge to get in.

Oh, but is it anything like the The Alameda-Weehawken Burrito Tunnel?

Well..... according to wikipedia:

At their inception in late 2007 — as smaller notebooks optimized for low weight and low cost.

Clearly, the Macbook Air is not optimized for cost.

What the hell are you talking about? I just searched newegg and there are no less than 30 1920x1200 monitors listed there. Sure, there aren't as many as the 1920x1080, but the premium market is smaller. Just like you won't find as many 300-399+ HP cars as you can find 200-299 HP cars.

There is no such thing as ECC RAM. The ECC (usually hamming) is performed by the memory controller. You can't just buy a stick of 72 pin DIMM and use that in any old PC. You have to have a memory controller that supports ECC. It should also be noted that this kills performance by increasing latency (decode and encode the ecc bits) and may also require read-modify-writes.

I think there is an adage that goes something like: there no such thing as bad publicity. I think both palm and apple are benefiting from this "quarrel."

It should be: NASA' LCROSS Spacecraft Discovers Earth-Like Life On Earth

Shouldn't that be: Bad news, everyone!

Actually, Columbia University was originally located near Wall St and Broadway. It moved up to Midtown for more space, then in the early 20th century it moved to it's present location in the Upper West Side/Harlem/Morningside Heights area. I think Columbia would be the exception in your list. Another fun fact is that it that Columbia University is the second biggest land owner in New York City, behind the Catholic church.

In this case, it might actually be a good thing Civilization Revolution has been scratched. That game is responsible for sucking away many hours of the night until you realize it's time to go to work.
