And the following, pretty much world economy at a glance.

The crowd, the world, and sometimes even the grave step aside for the man who knows where he's going, but pushes the aimless drifter aside.

Not so scientific...

I guess scientific calculations don't involve computing square roots... Just figured that you can't directly calculate square root on any Windows version so far, including Vista (in scientific mode).

Funny, especially when Apple ads show PC to be good ONLY at calculating, maybe Apple is mistaken...

For those of you interested in calculating square root in scientific mode in Windows, MS has splashed an article. I guess it was easier than adding a button to calculator.

Jailbreaking - cons and cons

Top 4 reasons - why I didn't jailbreak my iPhone

1: No Data Privacy - You are at mercy of crackers/hackers. They can steal anything they want from your iPhone, contacts emails, phone numbers, passwords, wirelessly, using your data plan.

2: No Privacy - Rogue apps or cracked apps can monitor your microphone/camera, you know what I mean.

3: Slow Phone - Multiple apps can run in background, all competing for processor. By default Apple doesn't allow this, once you jailbreak, just pray that all apps you run are cooperative and good iPhone citizens.

4: Genuine developers suffer - why would they write apps for free? They will soon give up, typically cracked app downloads are 100 times greater than genuine downloads, overloading limited server resources these individual developers have.
