From the link: "They didn't mean to do it, that's for sure, and they feel bad enough about it," he said. "This is like being the referee in the Super Bowl and making a bad call or the poor [baseball] ump at the perfect game who blew the call. They don't see the spotlight like this."

When looking at hibernate versus sleep, you need to take the amount of time the laptop is "off" for into account.

@Matt Hardigree: Still seems odd though - the stock T-5Z is only rated to 330 ft lbs max...

@Sunburn_summer: The friction creates the heat, which softens the metal. The bond between the two pieces comes from the pressure exerted forcing them together, aided by the heat bringing the metal to a sub-melting point temperature.

@Yahweh Took My Prepuce: Windows 7 has a preview feature as well - look for the icon in the top right of any folder, beside the help button. Seems to open pretty much anything...

@bornonbord: Any Shure earphones, really. The mix of different sizes of silicon, foam, and triple-flange buds included means you're bound to get a perfect fit.

@Hello Mister Walrus: Maybe the twelve worst, as a pilot program?
