Vulcan? Not on our tiny balls. Pluto moons named Kerberos, Styx

Attack of the ultra-nerd ...

Surely they're saving the Vulcan moniker for a planet orbiting 40 Eridani A when they find one?

I'll get my coat ...

Re: Did anyone else notice?

Are you certain?

Apple asked me for my BANK statements, says outraged reader

You know you don't have to buy Apple products from the Apple store? You can buy them through Amazon and all sorts of other outlets, ones who don't demand DNA tests before handing over your goods.

Channel Five reborn as Channel Five

It already exists

The MediSlat MCA i1040XT already meets almost all of these needs and has network security at an acceptable level as it runs Windows XP Pro or Vista Business editions. It even allows for hot swapping batteries.
