I'm no hacker but I do know enough. How the heck did he ever get a screen shot of the 'hacked' machine. Perhpase I'm missing something.... but to get such a shot you'll need some kind of Third party software installed that moddifies the Win95/98 Kernal. Theres no feasible way to do so without rebooting the machine, and pushing a fair ammount of information down the pipe. How could have possibly done so during one session without the end user taking notice?
Would it not be nice to get home... say Check and Read Email... you start to cook dinner as your computer reads you your email, perhapse even in the voice of the person who wrote it. You then get a summer of articles posted here, and say... "Tell me more about article #32". You PC then proceeds to do a net search reads the results, and then reads to you the articles you felt most revelant while you eat.
Being a coder, I can't wait for the day when VR and 3d windows becomes popular. You are in VR, to your right is your code, in front of you is the Interface, to the left is your bug tracking software... below your watches window. Mean while you leave your workspace to look at another project to re-use some old code. You physically (represented of course) grab the function and browse back to your space and drop the function in. Granted 3D windows will not work very well on a 2D screen, but in VR? Glasses, two motion gloves and foot peddles to control motion, how hard can that be?
Lately I've been thinking that physics has taken the wrong turn. It seems that the theories that have come to light over the past few years seem more and more out there. I think physisicts seem to be patching old theories instead of taking two steps back and reformulating some basic ideas.
Do you believe that unified theory will be a few steps back and one forward? Or will we be able to tie our patch work together?
"Because of the growing threat of cyberterrorism, the federal government has committed more than a billion dollars to go after computer hackers" Quoted from the 20/20 Article. I wonder how much of that money is spent on securing web sites, instead of putting 18 year old hackers in jail.

Please prove me wrong in my assumtions.
Sorry, but we can't bring you the weather today as our MTS application blue screened.
Is it just me, or does that photo look like a Photoshop creation?
Why is Slashdot reviewing a book that 90% of the educated population read years ago?
Its not even that good of a book. 1984 is much better, and actually more accurate to 'our current culture'

I don't know if anyone else pointed this out, but doesn't the library have books on sex?
So why would they sensor the Internet?
Just plain dumb folk out there.
I have AOL 5.0 with a LAN and Modem attached to my PC and dial out to multipul LANS. AOL does no so such thing.
When is your damn stock going to go up?!?!?!?
