It would be great if they made it look just like a floppy. I would pull up a command prompt and format it everyday, just so I look like a smarty computer guy to all my coworkers.
And what a great excuse, "Sorry sir, I will get that report to you as soon as this thing formats. Oh, look at the time. See you in the morning."
OEM's need to give the customer options in reagrd to the OS. We are beginning to see this some lately, with Dell offering Ubuntu.
And it's not that the customers will actually choose alternative OS'es at first. But it would help in so much as it would force customers to the realization that non-window's machines are a viable alternative.
Now I know why you don't respond to my comments and complains, you just simply don't read them at all.
They don't have to read your bitchy emails. They harvest enough data from your system to know and ignore your complaints before you can even get around to making them. If that's not responsive customer service, I don't know what is.
That is the wildest non sequitur speculation I have heard since I turned off Nancy Grace. Maybe we could send her to a Martian cave. Or me. One of us has to go.
(Did I just make accusations of a non sequitur fallacy while mentioning Nancy Grace in a topic about Martian caves?)
In the general sinful naughtiness usage, not the illegal act usage. And you have to read the comment with your head tilted to one side. I guess I should have made that more clear. Thought it was just understood.
but what concerns me is that this "number" could very well become another excuse for the government to pursue "solutions"
Oh, the "war on cybercrime" is just a campaign slogan away from reality. Are you ready for random searches of your hard drive? With my luck, a random search of my hard drive would reveal trace amounts of cocaine.

Deal or no deal twice a week, the biggest loser, 500 versions of law and order. If they do quality content, they might lose their audience.
Care to prove that? "Idiots" is a good tag.

Victory is mine. ;)
So in about 6 or 7 minutes I can fill up that 1 GB of storage? Or do I add wrong?
They should release it under the GPL. Then it will be free, as in freedom.
I'll keep that in mind. The next time I piss my wife off, I'll have him write an apology.
You can't top an apology written in the NYT. Unless I can get some putz at the Wall Street Journal...
Ballmer is a stupid dick.
That is all.

And next thing you know there will be patents on human genes. Oh wait a minute, we already have those too.

Hey, maybe they can have a reality show to see who gets the part of Knight Rider?
*crosses finger*
^^ lol. The GPL would become the law of the land. And all mp3 downloads would be legal.
...would be like Slashdot users deciding stuff that actually matters. Do you really want that?
I'll wait for the Nitendo DNA kit, thank you very much.

I think you have your vices mixed up a little bit, there Harmonious.
- "Do you consent to these drugs, baby?"
- "Yes. Can we have sex now?"

Maybe drug dealers are just using cyberspace now, thus making this whole thread a practice in futility.
I'm sure O'Reilly has books on how to become a hacker cybercriminal. I mean, on how to combat hacker cybercriminals. *cough*
