Posted by CmdrTaco on from the i'm-seeing-double dept.

Talinom writes "Tom's Hardware has a story that details information regarding some of the new (and old) copy protection schemes out there, as well as results from several different CDRW drives. There are a lot of sites devoted to this topic, but Tom's is usually rather thorough."

    going from low to high density was very late in the game. Long before high density drives were heard of, there were single sided floppies. By punchin a hole in the side opposite to the write-protect notch, you could flip your floppy over and get a two sided flippy (not a typo: a floppy you flipped was a flippy:)

    Being Taught a Lesson

    There can't be anything worse than being 18 and having your mother
    catch you fucking your boyfriend right? Wrong. Mom caught us alright,
    but she not only caught me, but she caught my cousin, Ann, too. We were
    both in my bed, with my boyfriend. She walked in just after Jim came in
    Ann's pussy, and Ann continued to suck my clit for about 10 seconds before
    she was aware that, as she put it, "the jig was up".
    [...]
    I could hear other voices, moaning in a sexual way all around the
    room. The man on my right pressed his penis to my mouth, and I let him
    enter, tasting his rubbery cock and catching his musky scent. He moved in
    and out of my mouth, slowly, letting me tounge the head and shaft. My
    pussy was soaking wet, and whoever was eating me was enjoying it and
    getting me really hot. The guys that were near me switched, with the
    other man giving me his cock to suck. His was a nice cock, not too big,
    not too small. It filled my mouth where I just had to stretch but not so
    it was uncomfortably wide open. They went back and forth changing off,
    and I was getting excited, thinking of them both coming. The girl sucking
    my pussy (I'm sure it was a girl), reached up and squeezed my tits,
    running her hand so sensually over me that I moaned out loud.

    "Shoot your jism on her face." I told him, and he did a few seconds
    later. Some of it splashed against my tits and Ann sucked his cock. We
    kissed, and she had a thick glob of his cum in her mouth. We chased it
    around and then she swallowed it, kissing me even harder.
