Creedence - number 77 / 100
And I see a problem here, why don't they send the CD? I'm sure that people would like to have the CD And the MP3's, especially because many don't have a CD burner or don't know how to burn MP3's. By buying music online, customers will have the advantage of instantly downloading the MP3's while waiting for the album to arrive.
That's not a serious online shop. I looked at a top ten list and made a few searches to see if the albums were available. Results :
Janet Jackson - 0 results
Madonna - 0 results
Britney Spears - 0 results
Jewel - 0 results
Pink Floyd - 0 results
Sting - 0 results
etc...
Find them a website which allows them to purchase music and download them instantly online in MP3 or WMA format and I'm sure many will stop the piracy.
Unfortunately, you won't be able to, the RIAA doesn't want to give us that much convenience.
what a statement, yet cowardly posted. Sorry but you're a wimp. If you wanna state a strong opinion about something, at least give people a chance to reply to your email address and tell you why you're wrong.
Maybe you should become a dictator or something something.
Playboy got hacked last week. No one talked about it, they were using UNIX. If they were using Windows you'll have heard about it within a minute of the report.
Actually it asks you for an administrator password and if you leave it blank it tells you clearly that this may be a security risk. But hey I've seen some people leave it blank anyways. I'm no DBA but yet I know that I have to set a password. Anyone who have "really worked" with MS SQL knows that.
All routers have default passwords setup, I don't see anyone complaining.
We can make their job easier. From now on we can all start by putting a webcam in each and every room in the house. Whenever an FBI agent or the IRS feels like spying on us, they'll just have to look at the webcams.
Last time I checked, even doctors don't work for free. Oh, I guess software development is more important than saving people's lives

Freedom or Power?

At the start of his essay he states :
"The love of liberty is the love of others; the love of power is the love of ourselves." -- William Hazlitt
We're 6 billion people on the planet, if I cared about others more than I care about myself, I'll probably be dead by now. The only people I care about is me, my family and my friends. That's it.
MS should send thousands of Xbox machines to the schools instead of PC's. A few geeks, used to kill time in class by secretly reading such books as Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, etc. but now MS can provide an alternative with the Xbox.
Do you know that the amount of money spent worldwide for defense, armies, bombs, etc. is about 500 000 billions? More than enough to feed the whole planet. Then again, all that money spent is taken from our pockets, we, the people.
I don't see God coming to me and taking away my freedom to speak, read, say dirty words, have sex, drink beer, go out, etc. just so he can guarantee my security. The government should look at that role model and do what he does (nothing).
Freedom has it's pains, but it's worth it. Enough is enough, it's time for our governments to take their responsibilities and leave us alone.
At that time many articles were written about how violent video games push kids to crime. After the Sept. 11 attack, I saw an article who also blamed violent video games because apparently the author believes that the gamers are reluctant to go to war because in games such as Quake and Unreal Tournament you always end up loosing at least one game.
Now for the shocking part. Please keep in mind that governments don't take their own decisions. Their decisions are based on what most of the voters want and what the pressure groups wants. In my experience, only 10% of the population is really against censorship. I thought that most slashdotters were against censorship to, but I got surprised when they were encouraging the government to stop WinXP from being published. Stop being hypocrites.

Easier to use than windows
I would like to believe you, but I tried macs and have had a hard time learning how the whole thing works. Even Linux was easier to learn than Mac OS.
-highest quality hardware, well integrated hardware and software
Does it have a GeForce3? Do I have a choice of extensive hardware?
Unix based, as stable and reliable as linux
Then why did they move back to Netscape-Enterprise/3.6 SP3 on Solaris?
a high quality windowing system superior to X11
On that I agree.

well, let's see if you can find an online store where I can purchase and instantly download the most popular music online.
See, their's no legal alternative. So what is RIAA complaining about?

Let's have the Chinese make a Napster-like software. The RIAA won't be able to do much :)

For some reason, a few minutes after this article was posted on Linuxtoday, their servers went down.
The mafia was paying a few government employees to get them records on every registered drivers. They sure got caught, too late however.
Now now, it's only to protect our childs. Wizardry is morally wrong :)

Those who revolt get killed by the government. It's like, if you don't shut up, the government will make sure you do.

good enough then, if he's so certain about his claims why is he a bioethicist to being with? He should get rid of his knowledge.
Open Source is unAmerican or perhaps it's the US government who's unAmerican. You decide.
