Seinfeld the TV series isn't new (he was know before that), but Seinfeld the actor/comedian is still very active in stand-up and movies (to name some). So that is hardly a dated choice for Microsoft.
A fair bit of people seem to worry that the data will be used for other purposes that the case where it is requested. It is my understanding that the material is confinded to that case only as it can't be sold or used by Viacom for its own buisness. Or does that work differently in USA law?
I don't know him, but I think he could see the humour in this. I would give him a plush penguin holding a card with the words "Free, is when you break away from Microsoft".:p
A friendly tip, if you are going to do a "make test" and is present at the location of the GNUke, do yourself a favour and comment out "nuclearfuel.h" or you are in for a nasty surprise.
Be fair now, the overweight people are actual doing the underweight people a service. Overweight people are removing mass from the Earth, and hence the gravital pull becomes less. That of course means that everything becomes lighter (less energy needed to move stuff about!), and when the underweight people fall down they don't shatter into tiny pieces. Global warming is just an added benefit to save on fuel to heat stuff during winter. You should thank these heroic overweight people for their hard work.
Church : "We don't want you to read this" Wikileaks : "Hey everybody, they don't want us to read this" Geeks : "Gotta get a copy of that" You just got Reli rolled.
Not so fast, take a look at the quote and how the journalist construct a rumour.
"Sometime in the next year or so we will have a new version" This could be about anything, without more context this is rather meaningless (not to mention that "or so" is rather diffuse). To which the article adds
referring to Windows 7 If that is so, why not show the full quote? Add to that the first part of the article
Microsoft Chairman Bill Gates on Friday indicated that Windows 7, the next major version of Windows, could come within the next year, far ahead of the development schedule previously indicated by the software maker. So nothing really clear, just what the journalist thinks? And to make it worse (where did this person study?)
Unclear is whether Gates was referring to early testing of Windows 7 coming within the year, as opposed to a widespread release or debut. Seems like fishy "journalism" to me.
We don't just need clear signals, be need explicitly stated intentions. Say "I want sex". Then we understand you. Have you gone mad?! This is Slashdot, we _need_ a technical solution, say, like a chip embedded in our body with all the personal data needed to succefully determining what others around us are trying to get across. Further more, let's base it on RFID, that way we can get our revenge on people we don't like by changing the data, now that "poor" sports jock will get some really personal and wierd proposals from other males. Muahahaha *evil pinky*
The are women on the internet! There are women on Slashdot! They just use manly nicknames, so we won't try to flirt with them all the time.
~amanda99: I'm really pissed with Microsoft pushing OOXML standarization! ~The-Man: Oh, you're so pretty when you're angry. And some females are males pretending to be females, you just have to spot the signs.:p

I think it is a bit late for Microsoft to try and turn Vista into a joke.

Reading this story seem to indicate that 2003 and forward should have been part of the "screw up" period.
It is good to see Sun throw their weight in to support open source.

A black market for a white item? Oh, the ivory. :p
Haha, stupid math students, 7 isn't a number, it is a letter. I guess they are not 733t enough.
Unlike the Illuminati the Chinese eye isn't placed on a pyramid but on The great wall of China.
