...Free information for the taking. Damn what smart marketing people they have. I wonder if I can get the dope on the Queen's knickers? Ummmm, Elizabeth in a thong;-)
...who like to make statements about things they know jack about. Actually, I think its an Imperial attempt at aligning with Mr.Gates to over through the US government and by extension the DOJ. I guess the settlements not going that well, poor Bill. Maybe he is making a deal with the C1A as well, eh!
A funny connection just flickered through my brain...did you guys know that worse than the word fart and Canada being mentioned more times in the same sentence than I care to count, a recently formered (serious) political party in Canada selected the name CRAP, short for Conservative-Reform-Alliance-Party. Funny the connections you can make when thinking of fecal matter...
...The good doctor in his original article briefly mentioned the following which I feel was underdeveloped later in his article.
"Did you know that each time big business's stock drops and you find that a big business Officer sold his stock just before the drop, you can sue him? Yes, you can, and it happens a LOT - you just don't hear about it. Big business almost always settles out of court before a trial (think they want to go to court when they can get rid of the annoyance by paying off the complainer - it's almost legal extortion - but the complainer has to lose money in the first place for the suit to have teeth.)"
These illicit 'trades' have to be publicly documented over computer networks, I believe.
"Remember, the Security and Exchange Commission, which allowed the company to raise a lot of money by going public, makes BB play by SEC rules. If you understand computers you can understand the SEC rules."
Would systematically sniffing SEC releases for certain executive/company names and launching law suits when their found to fit the profile of an questionable trade not be a 'delicious' source of funding to facilitate the 'Investment Club'. If you need a source of reference regarding the impact/hassle of one of these suits just ask Dr. Michael Coupland or review the Corel archives. Long live social hacktivism!
Duhh... I was responding to and conversing within the context of the previous post (Read up!) If your prone to ridiculous extrapolations then take it to wasteoftime.com I'm not biting the bait, Troll!
"Try explaining to the majority of students who don't use napster or don't have a computer, why their tuition is going up because of the few who do" Umm... So we should dumb down evolution because of a few slow adapters (They give computers away these days.)...Okay so certain students don't use their 'puters and access as often as others, should there not be an averaging out effect. This is about IT departments/providers choosing the easy way out and siding with 'The Man!'... Fight the power...

Besides I thought one's tuition and monthly residency fees subsidised the IT infrastructure... Do your job, supply demand through innovation not CENSORSHIP.

...Hmmm, worth thinking of. Didn't M$ have a part of Borland? Let the games begin... ;p

...when technological innovation is equated to 'unfair competition'. Everbody stop progressing the establishment doesn't like it!
