It is called a paper bag. It could allow me to exchange contraband and copyrighted materials with my colleagues covertly. When are the men in black coming to confiscate my paper bag?
So I'm guessing that a DDE compliant display will refuse to display a dvd or other type of media information that has been watermarked unless the media source is also compliant. If this happens it will make it alot harder to play copied media files on you brand new 42" DDE COMPLIANT (simultaneously destroying your fair use rights)
Right now the only thing I reboot to windows for is to play games. I'm guessing the xbox will run 99% of windows DirectX games. So hell... I might just buy an xbox (shock horror... supporting the evil empire) and kill that windows partition on my desktop machine once and for all. Its a toy operating system...so it may as well be used that way.....yes this post isn't all that relevant. Get over it.
anti-flame note: will probably get Tux Box anyway for all the other cool stuff like MAME etc

Pulls out his handy radar transmitter and thinks to himself - hey look like there's a DC9 VCR at house number 3, 10 and 12b. I think I steal the VCR from 12b. Now that he has the VCR, he can tear off the radio tag to prevent anyone using a similar technique to trace it back to him.
Guess this will probably end up being another device that provides very little benefit compared to the loss of privacy endured by consumers.
Because Oracle has the most bi^#H a$$ crappy install system in the world for linux. Its the most amazingly crappy piece of $h1t I've ever come across for a long time.

Here's a nice little story on Gamasutra about how the spec for the X-Box has changed over time.

That Win2k would have won. The range of games available for the platform.

"Surprisingly, the thing which saved him is Win 9x's non-standard implementation of Sockets"
- Wasn't it the crappy security in windows that allowed the DOS attack to occur in the first place?
Sex and lots of it

They'll b rendered useless and unreponsive to the radar devices with a simple swipe of a pocket knife down the centre cutting one of the circuits.
