What about the smoking gun emails from YouTube's founders? Hopefully they will be considered on appeal, as the DMCA safe harbor never was intended to allow content providers to leave stuff up that they found infringing copyright to make money from the resulting page-views or things like that and the fact that they were finally taken down when Viacom sent it's takedown notice is no excuse. But they are correct that it never required active monitoring or filtering or anything like that.
To be more precise, it was the shell, and the integrated shell in Windows 98 was originally part of the optional Windows Desktop Update that you could install together with IE4. Remember Active Desktop?
Yea, we need to end the obsession with stock price growth and move away from stock price based compensation and the quarterly earnings game. It was originally done in the name of "maximizing shareholder value" promoted by corporate raiders back in the 1980s and it must end. I have this latest Slashdot submission that is still pending:

Well, consider that back in 2006, the mobile Intel 945 chipset was the latest, so you would not have much of an alternative anyway other than going AMD. The mobile 965 chipset was I think released in the beginning of 2007.
F - It is much cheaper to simply lie copiously through advertising and PR to generate that goodwill. After all, it isn't about the truth, but perception. Perceptions can be bought.
Yep I know. It is not what I consider PR 2.0 compliant, but...
"The memory issue is indeed related to the HARDWARE. Specifically, it’s due to the Intel 945 chipset used in Dell’s laptops and has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with the operating system"
That proves that it was NOT a Dell issue. For that matter, any Intel 945 or older desktop chipsets can't do more than 32-bit physical addressing, they have only 32 address lines coming out of the northbridge. Blame Intel for for designing their older desktop chipsets that way. One factor was that PAE was not commonly used on the desktop. In fact, only Enterprise/Datacenter versions of 32-bit Windows support it even today. (No, the enabling of PAE for NX don't count.)
In fact, looks like in 2003, they passed a bill stating that as long as the stock holding meets certain criteria, it will be taxed at the same rate as capital gains. Unfortunately, this is set to expire at the end of 2010. I'd encourage Congress to renew it.
I mean, part of moving away from the mantra of maximizing "shareholder value" (stock prices) is to provide an alternative to relying on stock price increasing and this means paying dividends, which most companies did before the mantra started.

http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20090913140023382 Comments say that it is not very stable, though
We don't need to change the law to do that, but glad you agree, and hopefully you have seen my Slashdot submissions.

I think they are releasing it as external first exactly because of the technical issues with the 2TB barrier.
Well, consider that back in 2006, the mobile Intel 945 chipset was the latest, so you would not have much of an alternative anyway other than going AMD. The mobile 965 chipset was I think released in the beginning of 2007.
I mean, it is part of what I call "legacy" PR which I consider depreciated and not recommended, in contrast with PR 2.0.

Yep, I know, I had a lot of rejected slashdot submissions on this and a thread on Ars Technica on this too. This quarterly earnings game NEEDS to die.
Linux prints out the e820 memory map in the first line of the dmesg, BTW.
Yea, Geoff Chappell has an e820 memory map utility for Windows to determine what is really limiting your memory: http://www.geoffchappell.com/viewer.htm?doc=studies/windows/km/hal/api/x86bios/fwmemmap.htm
It has been long lifted. The Intel 955X/965 and of course later chipsets has the full 36 address lines.

The article claims that the evidence came from unsealed court exhibits and other court filings.
Yea, I often find articles in other categories on this site very interesting, but I don't read it's articles in this category much.
I am going to bring up this: http://yro.slashdot.org/story/10/03/24/1227201/Sergey-Brin-on-Google-and-China

The parent did not say anything about that.
On the other hand, it can create a feedback cycle which can be very helpful. IMO I'd rather have too much than too little.

Yea, I know. Simply fixing this tax problem that will encourage a move to dividends, which is important.

Probably because it was trivial for motherboard vendors to add PATA back for those that wanted it.
Exactly, and it is easy to add a PCIe to PCI bridge too.
