I disagree. My personal belief that dell sucks all over aside, this was an interesting marketing move. I've always been an amd guy, and the decision to add them now was a good one. The cpu market is very give and take. And while intel's core 2 duo does out do amd's best right now, the infussion of capital that a deal with the worlds largest pc maker would bring will not only aid development on amd's side but keep the heat on intel at a critical time. Never let a company be comfortable at the top. Make them work to stay there. Thats how advancment is maintained.

eh, i've beta tested most of google's programs. i can repect the potential of moving programs off the desktop, providing usable programs for free, and online storage. besides if you have to trust you documents to a company i'd choose google before any other. with e-mail, speadsheets, and word processors, the only thing google needs is a powerpoint replacment and all is good.

Guys...seriously. This thread has completely been taken off track. Conspiracy theories, domestic spying, political and social issues aside, the USA is still the most technically qualified nation to manage the Internet. If net neutrality ends up not being supported then a significant amount of control will siphon down to a corporate level, however with the majority of backbones in the US it is still US corporations that have the most to gain or lose. Same is such that if departmental control is taken from the US government, they have the most to gain by keeping it and lose by losing it. The UN has proven its over all incompetence time and again, but that aside, any organization that would permit input from countries like china, that seem only satisfied to censer the lives of all people, such a switch can not be permitted. The situation is delicate, however the US government only lasts 4-8 years which I would guess is a undertone to the yearly renewal idea. This is definitely a wait and see situation.
