Seems like your people at least know how to use LaTeX... which is, to be honest, great.
Here's my situation: I'm in a social sciences department and I'm the only one who knows that LaTeX is not a condom, that svn is not a pharmacy, and they don't sell carpets in bzr... So I write my stuff up on LaTeX & save the version with bzr, do latex2rtf, then rtf to doc with my wife's MSOffice bc I need to make sure formatting is ok, then send that to my advisor. My advisor does that crappy "track" shit, which seldom works reliably enough with OOo. So I open it up in my wife's Mac, and cry... Then I put her laptop (with the doc open w/ its tracking info & comments) besides mine (with tex open in emacs+auctex), and cry some more.
I only wish LaTeX was not so much easier than MSOffice & OOo...
Unless those people paid for a web hosting package, they have zero recourse and they cannot be evicted as they never paid a dime for anything. They should not have any either.
If those people did not "pay" anything, the service could not have sustained itself for a second and would have collapsed. They paid something alright, but what they paid/pay changes with the type and provider of a service.
and of course, if they did "pay" (in a non-traditional way) something for that property for a temporary period, they became renters. In this case, following your own logic, they have either been unlawfully evicted or dispossessed.
I was in Best Buy (oops) the other day and so a HP mini running XP ($400). It was about 5 times faster than my Linux-loaded eee 701 ($400 at the time of purchase a year ago).
wtf? was this supposed to be a joke? your xenophobia was at least a bit funny when it was parodying as a joke and not as blatant xenophobia announced thru headlines.
Let's face it, these guys [from Ivy League] are either smarter (maybe not in all aspects, but with respect to their work) or more devoted to their work than you are, and that's why they succeed and are paid huge salaries.
Ahh, the great meritocracy of the American Dream. Ignoring race, class, gender (even though you catched it with you 'generic he' usage), nationality and so on and in-linked systems of oppression... priceless, literally.
Not really relevant to your story (the footnote), but I ordered verizon DSL a few years ago online; they sent me everything, I hooked it up (to a computer I installed Windows on just for this, so that support can't tell me "sorry we don't support lunnax") and nothing happened. A week and 3 calls later, I learned that my residence doesn't get DSL...
Online application still says that I qualify for DSL. I tried to chat with one of their support people recently (it's cheaper, so I wanna buy it) and it was quite interesting of a "chat":
me: I would like to confirm that I really qualify for DSL. (insert my story above here) --- supportperson: Did you try the online form? --- me: Yes. Could you double-check with your own records somehow? I wanna make sure I qualify for this. I don't want to deal with sending back equipment and phone calls again. Thanks --- supportperson: Would you like to proceed with your order now? --- me: have a good day.
it seems like you need your stolen laptop to retrieve it according to the documentation. I'm most probably wrong, so how do you do the retrieve?
I read the documentation but couldn't understand how it works. any details if you tried a retrieve?
it never solidifies. if it did, we wouldn't have ameri-consumerism. They always introduce a new something, which disturbs the universe:) I was going to think the same way you do, but 701 is so great (within the limits of my expectations) that I'm glad I didn't.
I'm also not hopeful that prices will go down. bc they keep introducing new features, price stays at the same level or above it.

CTRL + SHFT + DEL then check CACHE then hit ENTER
how do you verify that these are authentic? just asking.
Every man is an island
and obviously, the summary was written in the 40s, before feminist criticism of language became familiar to the mainstream.
basically, this has the potential to be desirable like a Holga is. lol but you're actually right!
what about blacks and women? why are they occupying jobs that more important people need?? (sarcasm)

I read this as "Is there a cyberwar OR Is the US losing it?" and it made much more sense than the actual title...

it would include a price tag of below $300... And linux please.

eeepc (701) boots in about 20 seconds. a laptop with slashtop boots in about 5 seconds I think (from there, you could use google's notepad).

how is she gonna cancel her contract with the ISP if she is not allowed to contact any of their employees??
markets don't work like that
well it's gone now... no longer availble for downlod.

did anyone try to install this to eeepc? I tried but got a file not found error about some openssl files even though openssl is installed.
