  1. Re:Double standard? on Publishers/Authors Angry at Amazon Selling Used Books · · Score: 1

    But who is really to say that they are Market leaders? I Believe Barnes and Nobles would be more of a market leader in book sales than Amazon.com

    Whats next? No longer can campus book stores sell used copies of books because the Book is still in print. While I do buy most of my books new except for the English, History, Economics, etc. the option should still exist to buy used books.

    All they are using is transfering the ownership which is perfectly legal.

  2. Re:This is nothing new on Click! Ultra-High-Speed Digital Camera · · Score: 1

    Is anyone else tired of all these people who talk about Beowulf clusters? They are nothing new and im still waiting on all the specs for Beowulf 2.

    Just my .02 cents

  3. Re:Problem with two monitors.. on Multi-Head Gaming · · Score: 1

    i've always been able to remember it ,mostly because of a story once about SPISPOPD. ID Smashing pumpkins into small piles of putrid debris

  4. Re:Why I think MP3 CD players both suck & blow on MP3/CD Players Reviewed · · Score: 1

    CDRW's work great for data such as MP3's. most of the mp3's i have are on my computer. I don't even bother to keep my CD's around anymore. Encode them to MP3's, make a playlist for them, and place them on a CDRW. Now if i need to hold data such as Images that will never be deleted or moved ill put them on a CDRW. The only thing i hope for is these things read Packet CD data so i dont have to change the way i place Data on a CD.

  5. Re:now this on Philips VCR Records MPEG On (D-)VHS tape · · Score: 1

    Unless the tape is using a medium that is different than normal VHS tapes and the magnetic fields are set to only react when this medium is detected.

    Sure there might be ways to defeat the purpose but what is the point.

    Go spend some money and buy the DVD you want. Sure its great to know hack such devices ,but are we doing this for knowledge or "FREE DVDs"

    I am thinking the later.

  6. Re:If Mumia can speak! Or should Kevin bake bread? on Mitnick Ordered Off Lecture Circuit · · Score: 1

    May I ask how he is supposed to do business without the use of computers? Cash registers, payroll, inventory, etc. all use computers these days ,unless [of course] he wants to do all of this by hand.

    Does he have the right to purchase computer equipment while not using it?
    It is also little bit difficult to open a bakeshop without the capital.

    As for the Law school he would still need to get funding. The government will not give him financial aid. I'm also guessing that all reports would have to typed on a 1970s (or less) typewriter or pay someone to type it for you.
