Samba is not a standard part of any Linux distro that I know of. In fairness, I'm an OpenBSD fan and don't use Linux much so I can't be sure. Anyhow, suggesting that this Samba exploit reflects poorly on any open source OS is really a strawman argument.
Which explains perfectly why Linux runs on the following architectures yet Windows does not, and I can say with a large degree of certainty, never will:
Well duh. Who would take the time to write the 5cr1p7-k1dd33 assembly priviledge escalation code for Windows on each of those processors?
I wonder how long it will be before we can have HUDs
That would be wonderful. Script kiddie h4x0r5 your in-brain HUD and makes it so all you can see is the goatse.cx guy. No thanks, I'll keep my HUDless brain.
I recall from the history books that the Apaches would, when threatened, put the women and children in a central protected location and defend against the attackers.

this reminds me of when the photocopiers in the libraries had to have huge disclaimers about copying any material that was copyrighted.
When office copiers were first coming out, publishers of recipe books fought to prevent them from being available too easily. Their fear? Secretaries, who at the time were mainly female, would copy recipes out of books for swapping amongst themselves.
It sounds like Napster is trying the ol' "Throw enough shit against the wall and some of it'll stick" routine. They put out enough news "releases" to keep some mindshare then try this crap. Methinks they'll keep doing this until someone offers to buy them.
Or they'll become like the "E" channel or TNN and scroll ads while you watch.
I'd love to find a device/program/doohickey that will expand the horrible Squashed ST:TNG I see on TNN. I don't care if it means a bit of lost vertical resolution; I hate the squashed look.
The whole space elevator thing is a conspiracy being run by The Illuminati. They plan to run wires up within the elevator shaft providing an unparalleled antenna for their mind control rays. At the top they are going to have a lounge and war room from which they can watch their world and plan our lives.
Call me paranoid all you want, but it's about time the trut... oh just a sec, there's someone at my door...

Yes, Roxio did buy Napster at fire sale prices. I really think this is an attempt to dump a sinking ship while making a few bucks.

One would think it were illegal to sell any oral hygene products in England.

OK "Your TCP stack is cleaner than theirs" but what metrics are being used? How do we know bugs in their testing software doesn't skew the numbers?
