What the hell do they expect? They place critical computer systems online and they expect them to be safe? Why not leave them on an intranet and not worry about it.. Stop giving crackers a way to access the systems and nothing can happen... If the systems are so sensitive it seems logical right?
I moved to TN a few years ago. I was just about to move to Chattanooga, but found a super cheap home just north of there. Damn did I screw myself. LOL
I see the EPB Fiber ads all the time on TV since I get it from Chatt. Now I am stuck with my little Telephone Co-Op with the max speed of 10mbit/1mbit and you can only get the 10/1 if you do not have their IPTV which I do. The max with TV is 6mbit/768kbit and if you are watching HD channels your speed fluctuates between 4-5mbits:(.. Best part is that I pay $69.95 a month just for the Internet....
Should have moved to Chatt... Anyone want to buy a House? LOL
From what most people know about China is they make "Excellent Quality" items.
How long do you give before we are given a golden shower of chinese satellite parts?
No, the point is I had my HP for 1 year and 3 months when it died... I paid $800 for it plus tax. So I should be owed the replacement cost, minus the depreciated value.... The Compaq replacement is a POS period....
I had one of the affected pc's (HP DV6110US). It was not the best computer, but a hell of a lot better than the piece of shit I have YET to receive!!!
I have always said that we got screwed.... I don't really need the replacement computer as I bought a Macbook 3 years ago when the HP took a dump, so I might sell both and buy a new Macbook Pro...
I would have been happier if they gave everyone the option of the Compaq or Asus EEE T101MT-EU37-BK, but only people who bought tablets are given the choice...
Encrypted should have been the first security but what about security cameras? You would figure that since they are processing classified documents there would be security to screen personal and there property.
I have working with the US Army for years and when ever I enter a classified area we are searched.
I just got out of the Military and was in there for 6 years.
Not one time did we ever wipe a hard drive, not because we did not care nor to lazy.
We never sold the hard drives or gave them away. We either reused the drive or we smashed it and then recycled it.
The Army is so paranoid that we even had to take RAM out of old computers that processed classified information just because it MIGHT have information left...
I completely agree. The more they push DRM the less I buy. I hate being told I am a bad guy as soon as I break the shrink wrap. I am the customer and I should always be right. If not I will take my money else where. If that fails Pirate... and i don't think pirating is fair but if they leave me no choice that what they deserve.

I had to report this is Ireport from CNN http://www.ireport.com/docs/DOC-88988 everyone leave a review please...

I understand that every company has the right to protect there products. What I hate is when they go as far to hurt paying customers. I have been burnt by EA before with Battlefield 2142 and Punkbuster. I will never by a EA game so long as there is any of this crapware on the disc. I donâ(TM)t condone piracy but I would be more than happy to just download a copy of a game that works. Since these games are released for windows© how many users are going to format there systems because of viruses? How many times are the paying customers going to upgrade there hardware to get better frame rates since it is a PC after all? My money is better spent buying blank cdâ(TM)s/dvdâ(TM)sâ¦. I guess I took to old saying âoeThe customer is always rightâ the wrong way⦠Just my opinion
