    There is a computer show every weekend by me (Michigan). They have resellers that buy stuff at whole sale and sell it at the show. I put a AMD XP1900 together for about $350 minus monitor, CDROM, Video card.

  8. We let this happen on Tim O'Reilly Bashes Open Source Efforts in Govt · · Score: 1

    Why do we let M$ tell our government what to do. With /. numbers we should be able to lobby more then M$.

  11. Pantents on SCC Statement on SELinux Patent Issues · · Score: 2, Interesting

    If a company releases the source to something that was patented under the GNU can the enforce it later?

    They licensed it to us to use as we see fit, just as long as we release the source, right?

  15. Re:State Rights on Yucca Mountain Approved for US Nuclear Waste Storage · · Score: 1

    I agree, that was what I was getting at. That the south was fighting for state rights. I don't think the states have many rights any more. The federal government always hold the mighty dollar over thier heads.

    I cant recall but the first state to break away was pissed at something that was passed in DC.

  16. State Rights on Yucca Mountain Approved for US Nuclear Waste Storage · · Score: 1

    It just proves to me that states don't have a say so anymore. Then again isn't that what the Civil War was fought for...

    I think DC would be a good place to store it.

    O-Well

  25. Huge tax on DVDs and CDs on MPAA Finds First Actual DVD Copiers in U.S. · · Score: 1

    This is the only anwser. ;) They have to put a huge tax in this type of media to make the MPAA\RIAA happy. I think Canada is already doing it. So now it will be like $50 for a DVD-R and $80 for a DVD-RW.

    So when is this tax going to come? Any comments?
