  1. Last minute change in the BIOS? by randomErr · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    It sounds like either the dev kits weren't in sync with production units, or someone as MS decided to add a last minute DRM to the BIOS.

    the U.S. government spending billions upon billions of dollars "preparing" for a bird flu epidemic. Meanwhile in China, a country of almost 2 billion people, only 3 humans have got it and something like a couple hundred birds out of probably millions of birds that have not got it.

    Face it, people like to panic and cry "the sky is falling".. it makes them feel important.

    "In general, a company and/or the executives can get sued by the shareholders if profit isn't the primary goal.
    More specifically, it's "shareholder value", which is pretty much profit except that you might disguise the profit from the IRS."

    Wrong-ish. In the most general sense, the shareholders will due the executives if the company isn't run according to its purpose, which may or may not be making a profit or increasing shareholder value.

    To put it another way, if feeding babies to Republicans became the hot, new profitable thing for search engine companies to do, Google's shareholders can't sue Larry & Sergey if they don't do it, because one of the objectives in Google's corporate charter is to "do no evil." Google's founders made a choice to be that way and anyone buying into the company is well aware of it.

    Sorry folks...it all comes back to making a personal decision about the mark you want to leave on the world, and claiming "buh, buh, but it's a corporation!" is no excuse.
