  1. Re:Apple gave a demo on 2004-07-01 on Microsoft Patents GPU-Accelerated Video Encoding · · Score: 1

    More importantly, this demo was 3 months before the patent was even filed (October 22, 2004). A good example of prior art

  2. Re:Fixed that for ya.... on Economy Tanked While Government Surfed Porn · · Score: 1

    I'd go for: "Government gets it up while economy goes down"

  3. Re:Running out of cats? on Apple To Ship Mac OS X Snow Leopard On August 28 · · Score: 5, Funny

    Once OSX becomes more mature, they can release OSX Cougar.

  4. SAS 70 on Can We Abandon Confidentiality For Google Apps? · · Score: 1

    The only main issue with SAS 70 audits is that the company/process being audited defines the scope of the audit. You can choose to not report processes, systems, or users involved, and the auditing company will only cover the scope you've set forth. IMHO SAS 70 is nowhere close to a comprehensive auditing tool for SOx or HIPAA compliance.

  5. Re:Apple vs. Microsof on Apple Tries To Gag Owner of Exploding iPod · · Score: 1

    I always considered them amoral. It's not like they're trying to do wrong, they just don't care.

  6. Re:Profits, but for whom? on Stock Market Manipulation By Millisecond Trading · · Score: 1

    Are you by chance trading in FCOJ?

  7. Why ask Slashdot? on Soy-Based Toner Cartridges? · · Score: 1

    OP: "The problem is... the reviews all seem to be user testimonials." Isn't this exactly what you'd get from users here?

    Well OK, in that case... I'm so happy that each soy cartridge I buy saves a baby seal, and now I don't have to worry about all those pesky greenhouse gasses. I'll feel much better about the environment while I'm out playing hackeysack now.
