The best planning in the world is indistinguishable from pure dumb luck.

So now we can infect all of the machines we have access to with billions of trojans and viri all at once!

Trying to view an article in IE8 doesn't seem to be working at the moment. Initially the article displays normally, but after a half second or so, everything collapses to a column about one and one-half inches wide in the center of the page (headers, side bar menu and footers stay ok. Looks OK in Firefox... Actually, it looks as if the article is completely obscured by a microsoft ad in that 1-1/2 " column...more Metro crap.

I think we should pull out of Europe and Japan first. We've been there lots longer...

i would ask myself "what would the North Koreans do if the situation were reversed"? The answer is then obvious: pin a medal on him and declare him a national hero. Honor him with parades and free stuff.

"In the earning release, Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer reminded investors that there was much to look forward for the rest of the year" For a minute there I actually thought he was going to say he was retiring... Not so much to look forward to, after all.

Magnesium is not particularly tough at all. You are confusing it with Titanium, which is tough. Magnesium is also quite flammable (and once started, hard to put out - water accelerates the burning). Battery fires should be a whole new experience. The only advantage magnesium has is that it is lightweight...

Looks like a tablet designed by someone who sees a PC in everything, the result is likely to be the worst of both. Ballmer is really killing this company. And to recycle the name for that coffee-table sized touch screen thing no one wanted from several years ago - I would have thought that name a jinx, and in any case expected something more creative than that. Bet the stock drops a buck tomorrow. [edit] just looked at the specs WTF is VaporMg? Who thinks that is a GOOD Trademark name? Sounds like a cross between VaporWare and an extinct British sports car!
