Why do you need DVI-to-Mini DisplayPort?

Apple's 24" cinema display supports Mini DisplayPort and they have already released a Mini DisplayPort-to-DVI/VGA adapter. http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB382?mco=Mjc5MTU3OQ http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB570?mco=MTkzODk0NQ ht

How often are there routing issues to Google, but none to your site? It's much more likely that your site will be unreachable. The probability that Google will be down is probably insignificant for most cases.

He substantiates his claim with historical evidence and observation of current trends. Do you have anything other than your personal opinion? "A few decades" is not a short amount of time. I don't think it's naive to believe that this trend

You missed the point of the essay. It was written to support that claim. Also, the 640k quote attributed to Bill Gates is folklore. http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Bill_Gates#Misattributed

Yes, and it was under 10,000 points in your previous submission.[1] It was a "disaster" when it was at 8582 when someone else posted 42 days ago.[2] Also, it was down "400 points in 10 minutes" 52 days ago.[3] I don't need you to be my stoc

What happens if I vote 'no' but the project still passes? Do I still have to pay even though I wasn't satisfied? If a bunch of contributors vote 'no' and pull their money then how do I improve the project and get them onboard again if it's

It's shareware except you've made it much more complicated. What happens if I vote yes and the other contributors vote no or vice-versa? Does the vote need to be 100%? That sounds like a pain in the ass -- I want my software, now. This is a

Those examples are a bit of a stretch. The number of "normal people" who understand that they need new software written must be very small. College kids who want a good, free game to play at a LAN party College students pirate software. I

Who are these "normal people?" Can you give an example of software they would be interested in funding? I'm having a hard time imagining exactly who you're targeting. How is this different than microPledge?

How did this submission receive so many upvotes? I'm not seeing any interesting information in this article, it's just a big criticism of Palin and the Republican Party. Take it to reddit.

He's asking about the next essay. It's been over 2 months since the last one. On another note: I really hate posts with nothing more than a quote.

This submission is approaching reddit [pics]-level posts. There's nothing to discuss here and it isn't even particularly funny. Yahoo! Mail has been around since 1997; people had lives before Google.
