A single core is not equivalent to a hexa core so I think PVU's make more sense in today's world. What I would like from them is to be more transparent with the requirement to use ILMT.

Not to mention the fact that he had a copy of Office Preview. Stuff can still get changed in the software until the final version, and from my personal experience with Microsoft products it almost always fixes these kind of bugs.

Very much so. Just use Calibre to load books and your fine.

The sad part is that BoA may want to file a suit, because that's the trend. In these type of cases I haven't seen a bank to take responsibility.

I'm really curios when it's going to be approved somewhere in Europe. That's going to be a big signal of moving towards a finished product.

And the museum refused to fund an expedition for finding this? And the Scientist waited a year until the photographer went back there. It doesn't look to me that it was hard to find (especially since thy had an uncataloged specimen). I see that in this case the Scientist didn't want to be bothered very much with it. Furthermore he named the specie after his daughter and not the finder.

When has the exitement for discovery got so casual?

I think you're reading into it too much, and you're taking it too far away from the context between Dad and Daughter. This is, and will be, their own personal experiences. For some starting a hedge fund can be seen as high-risk, when for someone that has run one for years (Dad's case) or for someone that's been around one for years (Daughter's case) it can be seen as low-risk.

If Dad was an MD he would've said don't become a surgeon, do research and try to change current procedures. At least that's my take on the blog.

I see Dad's advice as going for something that can have more meaning to you and for which you need balls then for the safe/low risk model.

It's not about stress, it's about the need of the individual to make a difference. Doing something that has been done before it's not that exciting for a 20-ish year old. But someone older will take comfort in it.

I bet that author that's featured in the article didn't even try and see what's actually happening with LendLink.

I wonder if next they're gonna go for Amazon because they're posting reviews.

If you don't email [email protected] it won't get deleted though. Make sure you do that as well.

I really don't think so. Surface isn't a half baked product like the Zune was.

I guess if you only have the engine to work on you don't have full data so you're comparing what you can.

I see Google+ as the foundation of Google Glass. Just think about it: Google Glass + Google Now + Google+ makes sense. People complain that there isn't much to do now, but I bet that it'll be a lot different come Glass.

I'm enjoying Office 2010 a lot. Especially OneNote and Outlook. Everything is so nicely done, and I'm a power-user so I'm actively using it to the limits.

But I'm a power-user and I use keyboard short-cuts, categories, search folders, write my own add-ons if I need them etc.
