And most medical reference software is terribly outdated (in a technical way), working only on Windows 98 and some even won't install if the user doesn't let it install QT 2.0! They only update the contents.
Perhaps plain AACS cracking tumbled HD-DVD down. Blu-Ray, on the other hand, has 3 different protection systems with BD+ and BD-ROM being perhaps the most virulent of all. When all HD content becomes available only on Blu-Ray, downloading will be stalled for a good while.
In order to watch pedophilia pictures and clips, they must be made with... children! A friend of mine used to watch S/M clips, some really sadistic and real; I made him wonder if the "victims" could indeed be real victims obtained by kidnapping which would be found dead later...

Yeah right! As if the bosses would spend a Sunday afternoon (or any day at all) reading Slashdot...
I've got the omnipresent Broadcom chip on a Compaq Presario V5000. Upon firing up 7.10's Live CD, it not only struggled to use it in a native way (unsuccessfully), but also reprogrammed its firmware! It then wouldn't work under PCLinuxOS and ndiswrapper even after a cold reboot. After a hard reboot and XP, it didn't want to work either: I had to uninstall and reinstall it (never had to before).
I looked for answers in the forums, but to date I've got none. Don't dare using another Ubuntu editioneven if it's a Live CD, as I risk this happening again.
None of them could swing a tune on any instrument save a keyboard.

The Spinal Cord does not only have axons (nerve fibers), but also whole neurons and nuclei. In some cases it can make a body function regardless of the brain. It's the same difference as a phone splitter and a router.
If you think socialism is a "scam" you've been hoisted by your own petard. It works pretty well for many countries in Europe
It works well as long as you're the lowest class or the lowest edge of the middle class. Once you get a bit better you find there's little use in working yourself to death because you won't be able to afford much more. Most of us know that hitting it rich doesn't depend solely on brains or hard work.
Rich people don't mind that much about it because in many cases their fortunes have been subsidized by the government (on socialist grounds, of course) and once they're rich enough they transfer funds and hire accountants to avoid the heavy tax burden.
As for services: in Spain, health care is so socialized that in most cities there's no other choice than waiting in line for more than 8 hours at the ER. Few private investors are willing to compete against "free" and the state doesn't have much interest in making the system better. Some may call it "justice", though.
On the other hand, it would give the owner of the chosen DRM scheme a government-enforced monopoly, and we all know what a good idea that is.
In fact, that's the european way!!!
Fujimori's term was in the 90s, and he dismantled both communist guerrillas (Shining Path and MRTA). In the 80s we recovered democracy after a communist dictatorship in the 70s that confiscated lands and enterprises only to ruin them afterwards. Still, both governments in the 80s were economical and political flops that led to a brutal inflation and let the guerrillas run rampage and vietnamize the country. In his second consecutive term (95-2000), Fujimori's government became a demagogue cleptocracy that successfully erased his previous achievements.
Indeed, interest groups have it easier when there's an almighty government that can be influenced to act over a whole country, instead of having to convince everyone through propaganda which can be easily countered.
Also, most people take power and money as the same, when they're not. Money can buy power the same way power can make money worthless. While most of us may look after the money for our well-being and pleasure, the most powerful (and the most dangerous) leaders in history have always gone after the power even if they lived a plain, spartan life. Many political leaders nowadays care only about changing our lifestyle because of their religious or political beliefs and point the peoples' attention towards the millionaires that don't change our lifestyle but make a living out of it. The people as a whole have a lust for money which can be oriented to envy, hate and despise the wealthy, but the lust for power is limited to a small few. That's why dictators go unnoticed before the masses for as long as they don't live "la vida loca".
Lobbyists are meant to influence governments, not "average humans". And rulers are just as bright when it comes to non-political issues as the average Joe. A lobby could easily make the government allow or even promote the "poisonous widget" if people don't give a damn about or if they only oppose it lightly.

Many cameras take videos in .MOV instead of .AVI; Joe User is told he needs to download QT in order to view his homemade videos and he does.
.MOV file with QT pro takes 1/10 of the time needed to edit it with most non-dedicated video editors.
OTOH, editing a
Did they die of memory leaks?
Many laptops have Firewire ports, and most modern desktop mainboards do also thanks to te growing popularity of digital video cameras.

Just imagine a Beowulf Cluster of those!
Also, the richest can afford accountants and lawyers which will look for loopholes in the tax system. Hollywood Accounting anyone?
