Gates and Lasser on Palladium

A rather funny juxtaposition this morning - Bill Gates or someone with his signature stamp sent a spam-gram to pretty much everyone who receives any sort of Microsoft email: Bill only mentions Digital Rights Management in one throw-away sentence. And like most other spam, he promises it's a one-time mailing. On the other hand, Jon Lasser of Think Unix fame takes a harsher look at Microsoft's vision of a world where your computer is trusted against you.

    Don't speak for a crowd that you are not qualified to represent.

    Dude, I don't want to see another comment from you unless it's along the lines of "New version of Alien vs. Child Predator now up at the reopened OMM." I mean, seriously, where can I find some of the quality work that you chuckleheads used to turn out? Old Man Murray ripped me a new one, to quote the Duke.

    Damn I miss that stuff. Start to crate ratings...the Deus Ex walkthrough...

    Bring it back, man. Unless you're an imposter, in which case bite me.
