Nonono. Read some of the other posts above, yesh! The keyspace is NOT 2^2048. The 2048-bit private key is the product of p*q, where p and 1 are ~1024 bit primes. Suffice to say you need to find p and q to sign/decrypt. Therefore you just need to find the two factors of N, which will be p and q. DUH! Go read a cryptography FAQ or something.
Except that it doesn't work that way. P and Q are chosen using a PRNG, so you don't know what they are. There is no "brute-forcing" involved in finding a private RSA key, only factoring N, which is p*q.
Well, maybe not. on a k6-2-450 SHA1 can do ~200MB/S, but reading the disk would probably be slower. The auctal data your signing isn't what's signed. What happens is that you hash the data you want to sign using a crypographically secure hash, (SHA1/TIGER/MD5/etc) and then sign the hash. Since the hash will change if you change even a single bit in what you want sign, you can't reuse trick it.
Unless you're talking about copying the signed code and then sticking it in exactly the same place, so that the xbox auctally checks _just that code_ and nothing else, it might work. But eh.
Unforuantly xine/mplayer only does SQv1 of sorenson, the older codec, not V3 which is what most of the trailers and such use these days. It's still in the works of being REed. mplayer/xine will play the rest of the codecs that quicktime uses.
AFAIK mplayer should be able to play anything that any open source app can play. There is an mp4player that will play MPEG-4 compliant video/audio streams. Im not sure about the QT6 MPEG-4 codecs.
It can handle the quicktime format, so I imagine that since it can do H.263 it should be able to do H.263 movs.
And to the MacOSX thing. Pffft. Has MS released a version of WM player for MacOSX yet? mplayer won't do the binary only codecs on anything but x86, for obvious reasons. (Because the libraries were compiled on x86.)
Because mplayer will play windows media files (as well as Real video/audio files). It will also play every quicktime, except those encoded with Sorensen V3. It WILL play V1, as it was REd and released.
So linux/unix users can play everything but V3 sorenson, so both Real and WMV are more interesting than quicktime.

"VA Software, owner of Slashdot, uses a sneaky tactic, also. As you can see from the stock price [yahoo.com], the VA Software executives are people of great business insight. At the top of every Slashdot article, it says, "The Fine Print: The following comments are owned by whoever posted them." This sounds like you own your comments, doesn't it? However, the OSDN Terms of Service [osdn.com] says at section 4, CONTENT, paragraph 6, that they own your comments, too. It's as though Chevy sold you a car, but gave its executives the right to come around and use it, also. (I don't like sneakiness. All my comments belong solely to me. Slashdot would not have the importance it has now if the members knew that they were losing control over their writing.) "
Auctally, you DO own your coments and anything you post. Look up the word "non-exclusive" sometime.
You give them a non-exclusive license to store/repost/etc your comments. You still own them.
You mean NCP. TCP/IP wasn't invented till around '81 sometime (Or thereabouts, im sure it's in an RFC somewhere) His "computer" was an IMP, (Inter Message Processor or something) that basically acted was a gateway and was connected to another IMP.
Auctally, Microsoft does distribute GPLed software. And they provide source. Well, they used to. They used to have a bunch of unix command line tools bundled togeather called Internix. I remember being able to get the source (and GPL) for them all. I think they've integrated it into Windows Services for Unix (SFU) now. You can still the sources for both Internix and SUF 3.0 See Microsoft Interix (the panel on the right)
People always say that MS doesn't distribute/do GPL software, but they do. They also appear to be following the GPL.
Look up MPlayer or Xine. AFAIK, they both play DVD's and come with/you can get CSS plugins' for them. There are a bunch of DVD players for linux as well.

Uhhuh. The violence is ok, but the sex isn't! Most of the US (indeed western society) is like this.
I don't think lunix boxes are capable of that. Sure, you could do tcp/ip over a null modem cable, but you'd have to route all your traffic over it in order to spoof anything. Plus I don't think a C64/C128 has enough horsepower to do that.

That's the advantage of the two rolls system.
You can have one roll over the top, and the other from under the bottom!
