MS has stated that they would release a patch that would permanently disable XP's activation requirements when final support ends. Define "final".
Will Microsoft shut off product activation for XP after June? No, that would be crazy. While no one has said this will happen, it's conceivable that Windows could shut down product activation for XP at some point. But that would only happen after XP reaches its end-of-support term (when all support plans expire). The good news for you: That happens on April 8, 2014, which should be plenty of time to get the kinks worked out of Vista-or switch to a Mac, Linux, or anything else. Bottom line: Your copy of XP will work, totally legally, for at least six more years.
Simple fix, well-documented. Link or you're full of shit.
We don't care about you. Of course not.;) You're doing it for the the starving third worlders, right?
I hope Little Mumbo in Shitholeistan can swap his fugly, broken laptop for a cup of rice. Ha.
The five dollars we lost by not impressing some fag* * - you Well, shit, man... if I'm a fag... how about you suck my fat American dick? Slap some lipstick on and get to work!
internet is nothing compared to actual contracts with entire nations. Having "contracts" with nations that are notorious for not paying their bills is damn foolish. But, hey, you'll probably support "debt cancellation" (that is, a 1st world country pays their bills) when that happens to you, right?
You're not our client. Oh, I'm sure I will be - when this little Feel Good, Do Nothing project meets reality.
Thank god. Anyone dumb enough to give the OLPC project any respect has gotta be a faithhead of some breed.
btw - Great way to represent the org! Keep up the good work!:D
we feel accountable to our target nations, and we behave accordingly. We don't feel particularly accountable to Slashdot. Sorry. If you can't fix the problem for Mr. Rich White Dude in America, why the fuck should I believe you can fix it for some ten year black boy in Africa that speaks a langauge you couldn't even ever hope to speak?
Ben Stein and the other semi-literate creationist nutjobs Wait. Did you just say Ben Stein is a creationist? Damn. That guy's so smart. How could he be so dumb? You're confusing the character(s) he plays with the actual man. Don't.
I'm a fan of Stein's work (movies, speechwriter for Nixon, his late great show Win Ben Stein's Money and his books), but I've never believed he is MENSA material.
Despite the fact Stein is involved with this joke of a movie, I will continue to enjoy his body of work.
Why are they allowing the same computer multiple accounts in the same day? Huh? I don't know if I speak for anyone else, but I've got multiple accounts with Gmail, Yahoo!, etc.
The purpose of the SO lists is to identify those likely to re-offend. Hm. Good idea, but it's missing a key group: the goatse poster. Study after study has proven that this group has a recidivism rate far higher than even pedophiles.

There's no point in waiting until 2014.
I heard Spring Thomas was going to film a video where the server is housed, so... it makes sense.
I heard about a guy that knew a guy that got 500%, but a Big Oil company bought all rights to the process, murdered his wife and slept with his dog!
I'd hate to see how the Aussies handle a platypus. :(
I demand a Bill of Rights for Slashdot Trolls!
Is this fooling anyone?
No, seriously.
Anyone?

At least they are trying to make the world a better place! Results don't matter!

Now, let's all drop our pants and have a circle jerk to the Powa of Da Collective! w00t!</sarcasm>
Of course, right now, some poor little kid in the middle of some hellhole is cursing his America POS computer.
There is no such thing as "USENET". It's only a rumor.
.... Um. Er.
Now, time to go back to trolling alt.
LOOK! A pony!

And Visine. Oh, man, I love Visine.
You whore! You told me you loved me, Eliza! You said you'd call!
But Obama wants to give you FREE healthcare, and FREE education, and FREE !!!
woo! OBAMA! BA-ROCK THE VOTE! woo!</sarcasm>
Deal with it.
It's reality.
Reality is a heartless, cruel bitch.
A one-account-a-day policy would be suicide.
YOU RACIST!

Depends. How close are you to me and do you have any cool stuff I can scavenge (hardware, women, booze, etc)? ;-)
