Cool idea. Unfortunately, after hitting my CAPS LOCK key one time, I realized I never actually used it, so I removed it and smashed it into 20 or 30 pieces. INS followed right behind it.
To get past that, simply right-click, and while still holding down the right-mouse button, press space to get past the alert and the context menu will appear.
There are a few sites that this doesn't work on, and due to the current status of their server I can't test it on their page.
Still, I'd have to refuse to buy from them--using JavaScript for anything other than unobtrusive rollovers is, quite simply, evil.

("Lexmark") and/or its vendors, and are licensed (not sold) to you by Lexmark for use only on a single personal computer at a time. You may also store or install a copy of the Software on a server used only to install or run the Software on your other computers over an internal network; however, you must acquire a license for each separate computer on which the Software is installed or run from the server.

You agree that you will not use, run, manipulate, install or implement the Software, in whole or in part, in any manner that has the effect of overriding, modifying, eliminating, obscuring, altering or de-emphasizing the visual appearance of any trademark, trade name, trade dress or intellectual property notice that appears on any computer display screens normally generated by, or as a result of, the Software. STATEMENT OF LIMITED WARRANTY
Lexmark provides a three-month limited warranty, as measured from the date of delivery to the original customer, on the media (e.g., diskette or compact disk) on which the Software is furnished.
WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE EXPRESS WARRANTY DESCRIBED ABOVE (APPLICABLE TO MEDIA ONLY), THE SOFTWARE IS NOT WARRANTED AND IS PROVIDED "AS IS." THE WARRANTY DESCRIBED ABOVE REPLACES ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties, so the above exclusion may not apply to you. LIMITATION OF REMEDIES
Lexmark's entire liability, including that of its vendors, subsidiaries and resellers, and your exclusive remedy shall be as follows: Lexmark will provide the express warranty described above. If Lexmark does not remedy defective media as warranted, you may terminate your license and your money will be refunded upon the return of all of your copies of the Software.
For any claim arising out of Lexmark's limited warranty, or for any other claim whatsoever related to the subject matter of this Agreement, Lexmark's liability for all types of damages, regardless of the form of action or basis (including contract, breach, estoppel, negligence, misrepresentation, or tort), shall be limited to the greater of $5,000 or the money paid to Lexmark or its Authorized remarketers for the license hereunder for the Software that caused the damages or that is the subject matter of, or is directly related to, the cause of action. This limitation will not apply to claims for personal injury or damages to real or tangible personal property caused by Lexmark's negligence.
IN NO EVENT WILL LEXMARK BE LIABLE FOR ANY LOST PROFITS, LOST SAVINGS, OR ANY INCIDENTAL DAMAGES OR OTHER CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, EVEN IF LEXMARK OR ITS REMARKETERS HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY CLAIM BY YOU BASED ON A THIRD PARTY CLAIM. Some jurisdictions do not allow the limitation or exclusion of incidental or consequential damages so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you.
IN NO EVENT WILL LEXMARK BE LIABLE FOR ANY INTERRUPTION OF USE OR ANY LOSS OF, INACCURACY IN, OR DAMAGE TO, DATA OR RECORDS. GENERAL
You may terminate your license at any time by destroying all your copies of the Software or as otherwise described in these terms. Lexmark may terminate your license if you fail to comply with these terms. Upon such termination, you agree to destroy all your copies of the Software. Any attempt to sublicense, rent, lease or assign, or (except as expressly provided herein) to transfer any copy of the Software is void. You agree that you are responsible for payment of any taxes, including personal property taxes, resulting from this Agreement. No action, regardless of form, arising out of this Agreement may be brought by either party more than two years after the cause of action has arisen. This Agreement is governed by the laws of the country in which you acquired the Software. If you acquired the Software in the United States, the law of the Commonwealth of Kentucky shall govern. UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT RESTRICTED RIGHTS
The Software has been developed entirely at private expense and is provided with RESTRICTED RIGHTS.

That only governs the software, but it's the only "agreement" I made with Lexmark, and it doesn't say a damn thing about having to buy marked-up ink cartridges.
Well, I use both Windows and Linux on my computer, but Windows is my main operating system--I play games more than I do anything else, and games just aren't the same under Wine. Also, I didn't feel like logging out to vote twice.
Slashdot Mirror
Possible. But I really hate the Caps Lock key.

Not much chance of finding that at any tech school. Thus, I went to a public university.
Well, I use Direct Connect mainly because of the internal "hub" at my university. I normally get download speeds near 1MB/s.
Use Direct Connect--it's a little more complicated, but worth it. http://dcplusplus.sourceforge.net/.
Yes, Drop's Zone is pretty cool. And I assume the one at Paramount Canada's Wonderland is the same as at Paramount's Kings Island.
Look at this. Pay special attention to the part about speech.
Well, I believe they make money from AOL since any install of AOL also installs RealPlayer, without letting the user know.
Your library has software? Cool!
"Yousa steala precious from meesa!"
I had something like that, but I called it Mohr's Corollary to Moore's law.
Well, one of the topics frequently discussed on /. is "free software". Most of the time I can download this "free software" without paying a dime.
Also, users wouldn't need to buy a monitor--generally the most expensive part of a really low-end computer--they can just use their existing TV.

Technically the DMCA shouldn't apply in other countries, but US courts claim jurisdiction over the whole world.
Cool program. I'd been wanting something like it, but I'd never spent much time looking.
A customer called and complained about that???? Some people have no lives.
Well, Vader switched to good at the end of Jedi, but I don't think that's what's happening here.
I'd prefer Congress did something regarding this issue: repeal the DMCA.
