Rob You have to remember that the system is designed for people aged 18 or above despite its appealing cuteness and so the BMI calculations it makes are always going to skew upwards for children because of the assumptions that it makes.
As for the N64 kid reference, I must admit I had forgotten about it.
As for weight fluctuations, I have these "ultra-precise" scales and I tried them before and after going to the toilet and yet they weighed me the same. I'm not so convinced by the accuracy any more.
Stating something like using "free software" causes security issues will panic to the standard user and gives the whole open source movement a bad name. I think more specifically software downloaded for free which shouldn't be free has a higher chance of being compromised with malicious software and programs. Programs with no obvious source of revenue stream (no donations, no free hosting, no referral commission etc) need to be questioned how they are making ends meet.
I remember passing my driving test 9 years ago and the first time driving into Bradford (a week after passing) earned me a stop from the police, a £30 fine and getting breathalysed all for being confused by the bus route system. Bradford traffic police are obviously of the tallest order.
