@searching with my good eye closed: Speaking as someone who is really, really bad at reading ECGs even after years and years of medical school indoctrination, I can safely attest that this patient is in a shitload of trouble.

@900pilot: Touche. I see what you did there.

That 14 year old obviously can't spell "eight" correctly, though...

@Curves: I have faith in only one thing, and that's the engineer's dogma: Try to make something idiot proof and nature will send a better idiot.

@ddmeightball: That's not a bad idea at all...!

For some inane, odd and slightly unsettling reason, I read "Burn a Korean" and begun to wonder exactly where in the United States that would be legal in the first place.

@HeartBurnKid: Agent of R.O.A.C.H.: Actually, I use all three major operating systems. Ubuntu and OS X at home, Windows and OS X at work and, regrettably, mostly Windows at the laboratory now.

@dantheman12: At around $1000, not a lot of students will be using this. And, as a former medical student, I can attest that it simply won't replace everything in the backpack. Far from it. I agree it makes for a significantly lighter backpack, but there's still a bunch of stuff (including the odd physical book) in…

@TerryinSt.Paul: Yes! And I always responded:

@SkelatorDan: After repeatedly losing hours worth of work from Word crashing while in the process of saving. After seemingly endless amounts of disabling Clippy only to find him re-activated after updates, crashes or just for the heck of it. After literally yelling at my CRT for the umpteenth so-called…

@mrgibblechip: You really don't want to know what Clippy does to the dog with Merlin's wand when you're not looking...

@talkingstove: Cut out the middleman. All I would have needed is a button that said "Press to give MS tech support electric shocks".

@MacAttack: Microsoft learned their lesson from the US Government.

@HeartBurnKid: Agent of R.O.A.C.H.: The fact that my parents can't screw up a Mac half as bad as they can screw up a PC is enough for me to warrant iTax.
