My Fujitsu Siemens Computers account manager told me we couldn't buy truly bare bones machines. We had to buy a blank machine and pay a nominal fee [if I recall it was about 5 quid] for a copy of *nix [I forget which distro - possibly Suse but not sure]. The reason? Because they weren't allowed to sell computers with no operating system - he got a bit hazy at this point and went on to say that it was because people were using illegal copies of Windows. He didn't agree with it [neither did I], but his hands were tied.
but I read TFA and googled 'free anonymous blogs'.
The first result was from the EFF which mentioned invisiblog.com, which is down but doesn't state why.
Again, probably not related, but curious all the same.
Not looked into anon blogging before because I don't blog - not even sure if it's a search result the chinese will ever see....

Mod the parent flamebait if you want. But it's not. It's a fully valid viewpoint, you cinical people.
Just because the note's written in fluffy-wuffy, asky-nicey engineerspeak, doesn't mean there isn't a massive gorilla backing it up....
