But did he get the combination number to her chastity belt? I haven't actually seen the thing but it must exist since I can't get anywhere near there...
I had no idea anyone actually used Mac's as servers. Sure, I bet you can get apache running or something but I didn't realize anyone had. Therefore, this is my first bit of exposure to this idea of Macs as servers and its all negative!
RTFA! Seriously, CTRL + F "Windows" will show that it specifies XP SP3. A poster above has stated he reproduced the issue on Linux but the article states XP SP3.
...I see what you did there. I still don't understand the appeal of those awful toolbars. They do nothing of consequence in my mind but sure do take up a lot of browser real estate. My girlfriend likes to run the google and yahoo toolbars together on her Vista machine*cringe*. Let me know when they come out with a toolbar with features worth giving up my browser space.
This is Slashdot. Right so far. We are mostly alternative OS users, i.e., Linux, *BSD, OSX, etc(sorry OS2 users). Right again.
These articles are annoying in that they are so very broad. Its like the typical American-slashdotter who assumes the "Government" refers to the U.S. only in any context. This article presumes the user base is that of Windows users. Why not specify this is a ****OS NAME HERE***** issue?
The article says this is a Windows XP SP3 issue. Great, that's nice to know, but I shouldn't be presented with an article that makes me think I need to go and update/remove Adobe from my Debian machine.
Pure FUD. FUD' beyond belief!/rant
It's not like stamp collectors are saving up for a big letter-writing campaign...
That's what they want us to think....all the while, draining the stamp supply!
But seriously, I understand your point and I can respect that. I just wanted to know if it could actually do anything useful. If not, cool; he's got a pretty neat toy now and that's well worth it.
I can't help but wonder if this couldn't be emulated for a fraction of the price. Are there any virtualization systems out there that could accomplish what this guy did? I imagine something along the lines of GNS3 might work...

It's called a shotgun.
First off, SSL isn't broken and Marlinspike doesn't say that, either. What is broken is how users perceive a secure Web session from an insecure one.
Apparently this only affects those who don't pay attention...nothing to see here.
I guess the question then is, what do we use as an alternative? What can we even do?
Maybe YOUR president. Get out of your bubble!
G.W.B., is that you sir?!
She's Chinese, in her mind my skinny little-white man wang is as big as it gets...
Note: She's real, I swear. Please don't revoke my geek cred/card!
So...you're saying we should charge for EVERYTHING to maintain interest?
/me charges girlfriend $20 for sex...
that this wouldn't fly with Windows. They always get top of the line drivers delivered promptly...

...the last time 'Sun' slipped me something I woke up groggy and sore...
Ballmer: "Can't we all just get along?!"
*BSD: "SURE! *hug*"
Ballmer stomps on *BSD.
If no one WAS actually climbing on the pipe like the article states, why did they put a sign up? "It ain't broke..."
Whats wrong with what I've been doing? The GPS chip behind your ear does a great job. And only $14.99!
Flowers have been sent to Mrs. Furry.
What are you implying sir? That I followed my own advice and RTFA/followed the links? Don't tread on me!
So umm...I have a confession...

Woe is me.

I have no funny/clever/whimsical retort for you sir.
You may pass.
Facebook was recently brought down when their hamster keeled over and ceased powering their Amiga.

I left you guys out on purpose...
