The funny thing about the DDR memory is that when you run it its about faster and better and that is what the thing of it is. I always said that when it comes to DDR memory that I would buy a chunk of chocolate and eat it before the DDR memory would address a bit. And you know what? I was right !!
Sorry, every time I see that, I imagine two sticks of ram bouncing around on a Dance Dance Revolution game and wonder what the technological advancement of RAM being able to memorize of Boom Boom Dolla' backwards and trading spots has to do with anything useful.
Then I blink, and the image IS STILL THERE.

Many will likey see our aversion to an OS that tries to prevent us from copying copyrighted material as just a bunch of theives being pissed off that we can't steal anymore.
While you can't say that none of us download movies on the second day they're in theaters, full albums before they're even in stores, and games that we didn't pay for, we need to be sure that it's understood that the reason that we are against DRM and most other things bitched about on/. is because they take away the freedoms that we have now to make our own choices, and NOT because we want to be able to steal.
Sorry about the run on sentences...:)
