And at five feet tall and weighing at least 1,000 pounds (450kg), it wouldn't do to make a cow too nervous.
Yes another reason for sheep.

I believe cows are a bit easier to hunt than sheep though.

That happened to me a few years ago (well, the cow attack bit, not the death by cow attack bit)
I was walking my dog (on a lead) down a quiet country path in the middle of nowhere (the Isle of Mull, to be precise). We turned a corner and a herd of cows suddenly appeared out of a hedge, freaking out my dog, who was somewhat skittish to say the least. The cows freaked out too, leaving both me and the dog somewhat bruised, but otherwise ok.

Like all herd animals, cows don't like suprises.

Hi. The last nVidia Geforce Driver isn't supported by Vaio notebooks. How can we install the last release drivers on Vaio notebooks ?
Do you have an idea about it ? Thanks in advance .

Wait 2 years for sony to get around to wrapping todays driver in their WTF layer.
Unfortunately mobile GPU drivers tend to be a lost cause due to deliberate sabotage of generic drivers by the OEMs.

If it's not supported, would it really be such a good idea to force it?

Just force it in there, most of the times it works and most of the times when it doesn't Last Known Good will rescue you.

Actually, I'm at work experiencing the full-on assault of suckage from WPF and VS2008. My laptop is currently at home and powered down, and therefore is not allowing Weven to suck.

Actually, you don't even need to post about it anymore, as others do[^].

Out of interest John, have you tried WPF / VS2010 / Weven combo yet? Would be interested to know what you make of it (even though it's all still BETA / RC).

I am not inclined to install VS2010 in its current state onto any system. I have Weven on my laptop, but I'm not really interested in installing anything (beyond Office) on the box since the Weven RTM date is some time late next month, and I'll just be reinstalling Weven all over again anyway (after downloading it from MSDN).
BTW, I stumbled on an actual bug in WPF yesterday, confirming its suckage by way of tangible proof. No OS or VS version will fix that. 
VS2010 has already has a fix implemented for a syntax highlighting bug that just irritates the hell outa me, and they're supposed to be addressing the random IDE freeze/crash that I see EVERY day. Like I said, I'm gun shy about installing an early beta on any system, so whether or not they *have* fixed any of these things will remain a mystery until at least the next beta.

Fair enough, I can understand that. I'm sure we'll be the first to know if it sucks when you try it
I ask because I tried it myself briefly, but Weven RC didn't run particulaly well on my slightly older hardware (Beta was fine) and so was forced to revert back to XP/2008. I'm going to have to do some WPF stuff in the not too distant future which with my current set up is obviously not going to be ideal.

From the Insider:
Top Indian CEO: Most American Grads Are ‘Unemployable’[^]
"Many American grads looking to enter the tech field are preoccupied with getting rich, Vineet said. They're far less inclined than students from developing countries like India, China, Brazil, South Africa, and Ireland to spend their time learning the "boring" details of tech process, methodology, and tools--ITIL, Six Sigma, and the like."

He's wrong. Students in developing countries are also concerned with getting rich. It's just that the "rich" bar is a lot lower for them than in the US. For instance, $5 would make some of them quite wealthy in comparison to their countrymen.
