    Joyce's anti-public transport attitude, that's what. It's all about farebox recovery ratios, and the Minister for Trucking's insistence that all forms of non-road and public transport pay their way in as-close-as-possible-to full so that he can provide more invisible subsidies to his mates in the RCF without having to increase roading taxes.

    Where's Allan Dick when you need him?

    I hate Unglush. Too many words.

    Just call 'em all "them" or "youse" or if you really hate them "bastards"..

    Or maybe Unpersons...

    The DMCA alone is reason to be cautious of an NZ-US FTA, if the Aussie experience is anything to go by.

    @Craig, Sam F, Gio: why don't the guilty parties just admit that they're trying to exhume the Mazengarb Report?

    @Damian: ever thought about "recycling" the CRT on TradeMe? Works for me when I have surplus computer parts that I've outgrown or no longer need.

  • Hard News: iPad Impressions,

    Awesomeness.

    Using an iPad to replace the tape cassette drive for an Apple iie.

    Now they just need to do the same for a C64.

  • Hard News: iPad Impressions,

    When everyone else was still shoving components in beige boxes, that was quite a step.

  • Hard News: iPad Impressions,

    This million dollar laptop can be ordered in gold.
    And this wooden laptop comes with either ivory or 24 carat gold keyboard. The ivory sure seems suss.
    Or the pièce de résistance Gold Plated Voodoo PC. Tacky is right.
    I'd buy a gold plated iPad though. Cause that's different ;-)

    Hehe. Who needs gold plating when you've got steampunk?
