the US companies have been conscious of the fact that lots of consumers listen to music on their computers, so they've been using additional technology to give consumers the ability to play the CDs on computers (in what are called "second sessions")
but on the other hand
You mention Enhanced CDs. As it happens, lots of consumers have had trouble with Enhanced CDs, because they may not play on all devices. So every time you mess with computer technology, there are unexpected effects.
So it seems to be OK to put data sessions with crappy 64kbps MP3s on otherwise copy-protected CDs, but when it's about giving the customer (remember, we're still customers, not "consumers"!) some added value (lyrics, pictures,...), the technical problems seem insurmountable? I don't get it...
If any of you had read the explanation on the excellent APOD site, you'd have seen that this thing had already been found in 1985 by Arturo Gomez. This is hust a new Hubble picture of it.
Liechtenstein is a tiny principality nestled between Switzerland aus Austria. The NIC is here. Registration is CHF 35 per year (~ USD 24), and if they make a profit, they reduce next year's fees accordingly (this has actually happened twice in the last 5 years). The registrar, Switch, is also bidding for the.org gTLD.

I'm all for using smaller cables in my cases, but wouldn't this be *the* opportunity to sneak in some consumer-unfriendly Digital Rights Management scheme?
I guess it's time to abandon the US and Europe altogether
Don't forget Switzerland: located in the heart of western Europe, not (yet?) an EEC member, very nice people, watches, chocolate, mountains, lakes: what could one want more?
We rarely get max speeds of over 512kbps, unless you pay a fortune... The faster plans are completely out of range for an individual/hobbyist etc.
My cable provider (www.quick-time.ch) has a flat rate offer with 256kbps up and down for CHF 59/month = $33. Installation was quick, the cable modems used are from Terayon, and I haven't had a single failure in 4 months.
Well, I'm no longer a young Creationist, but anyway:
I think what's described in the article is *not* a mutation, since the possibility to be a tetrachromat is latent in every female. They all have two X chromosomes with potentially non-matching green and red color genes, after all. In fact, even pentachromats would not be mutants (one slightly off green plus one slightly off red...)

What about uncapping your modem?

Sorry for replying to myself, but this post resulted in a form error, that's way I reposted.

I use MRTG with a tiny Python script to count the number of attacks. The results are here.
Well, it just popped up in my mind, I really couldn't help it!
