STOCKHOLM, Sweden - She is a latecomer to the information superhighway, but 75-year-old Sigbritt Lothberg is now cruising the Internet with a dizzying speed. Lothberg's 40 gigabits-per-second fiber-optic connection in Karlstad is believed to be the fastest residential uplink in the world, Karlstad city officials said.
The general gist is it takes her two seconds to download a full length movie and she only uses it to read online news.

Every person's dream is of course to have Barry White playing out of what is basically a dildo.

I'm buying a new desktop in a month or so, and the first thing I'm going to do is downgrade that bitch to XP.

I was talking to a guy at the store the other day who said that XP was selling better than ever for just that reason.

Supposedly you can still buy desktops with XP on them instead of Vista, a sure sign that even Microsoft thinks Vista sucks.

Under pressure from it's customers, Dell reinstated the option a little over a month after Vista came out.
EDIT: I don't know why I said "Downgrade to XP". Installing something that works over something that doesn't is an upgrade.

Ceramic composites seem to be getting used more and more. In airplanes, edged weapons, computers...
