I dont mean that the US can stop it, just that we wont just sit there and watch it happen. As in this new space race will put us back into the (serious) space exploration business.
Commercial space flight may happen and it will only have taken 200,000 people paying an extra.25% sales tax. Think of what we could be done with $500 billion.
If the DRm is too strong you get stuff like this (I remeber a similar story about Tivo DVD players not playing new Blue-ray discs), too weak and you can get anything to play them.
Are we arguing that Linux is inferior to Windows and therefore should cost less?
No, I'm saying it may be cheaper to buy the same PC with Windows on it then delete Windows and install Linux yourself. Chances are they will sell the very same PC with Windows on it.
Will it be as repressive as google? Read their terms of service. There is a whole list of things you cant discuss on an adsence page. Guns and drugs to name two.

Sounds like they wont be out till christmas.
If they are going to press charges, why is the pirate bay still up? Shouldn't the first step be to shut it down?
If there system was unstable it was probably their system design and not the OS.
Now they just need a new way to get calls from the net to a phone line. I wonder if anyone has patented taping a phone to a speaker.
America viewed as an enemy? I know relations could be better, but enemy?

Once China and Japan catch up to us we will join the space race again. The US will never let another country achieve superiority in space.
What about when Windows auto-connects to an open AP? Sure you would probably never get arrested for it, but its still technically illegal isnt it?
#1 AOL CDs. I used to work at the post office, they some people decorated entire walls with undeliverable AOL CDs.
The print screen button already doesnt work for video most of the time in windows. You just get black where the video is suppose to be.

Maybe they should take away your federal student loans if your caught downloading music, they do it if your caught with pot.
So all I need is a big antenna in my backyard and some tracking software and I can have free wifi!
"(I remeber a similar story about Tivo DVD players not playing new Blue-ray discs)" You're aware that BluRay discs require a BluRay player, right?
Whoops, I meant new DVDs.

I never did trust that animated peace sign.
Upgrade to Web 3.0, quick!
Ya but is it 100% compatible with MS Office. Cause if its not I can see why a lot of companies would think twice about making the switch.
as the owner of HDNet, he worries about having his content given away for free without his consent
What is he worried about? HDnet content is, you guessed it HD. Youtube is well, not.
Well laws havent stopped spammers or botnets yet, maybe big companies suing them for millions (or billions) in damages will, couldn't hurt.
They never even built Reagan's space weapons, how can they put them on a stamp?

No, I'm saying it may be cheaper to buy the same PC with Windows on it then delete Windows and install Linux yourself. Chances are they will sell the very same PC with Windows on it.
Now just tell me it costs less than, or at least the same as, the same PC with Windows pre-installed.
