In addition to above two points, it is also important to
remember that Microsoft is a constantly moving target.
Even if you had the source code, and even if you could
create usable documentation from that source code,
and even if you could distribute that documentation,
by the time anyone could design, write, and test code
that could interoperate with Microsoft software,
Microsoft will have changed the API via Windows Update,
and your code will be broken.
Microsoft does not *want* to document their API because
that would be indicative of commitment to that API.
You really need to stop thinking that way.
Even if you are a U.S. Citizen, I doubt that
you specifically are looking for a reason to hit Iran.
While you meant to say that the bush administration
will find some reason, I doubt that you wish to
be associated with some illegal bush administration action.
Well, you can get that with a power strip,
but, you're right, people are lazy.
And, sure, it's inconvenient to use your car
when you have multiple devices to charge,
not to mention that many cars are not setup
to give you a charging port these days.
Maybe the best course is to avoid use of
these portable devices, and pay attention
to the real world around you.
There is another angle. Microsoft is gaming the system to give legitimacy to "software patents". They will setup a situation later where all parties involved in the lawsuit are really under control of Microsoft, and one party will 'lose', and MS will bail them out. MS does not care how much money they lose on such a bogus lawsuit, as long as they can set a legal precedent.
Remember, "software patents" is the only weapon that MS has that they can use to attack GNU/Linux.

The knowledge that oil is available is known,
but it's not likely there is appreciable water in the moon.
The expediture is relative, and possibly just as moot.
Soooo, you *are* saying it's fat! I knew it!
Seriously, this machine would be fine with 2.4 system.
In fact, I want one. Too bad, they will not be for sale.
Note the unmamed machines.
What do you think they are there for?
I'll bet NSA would not answer that, would they?
Which is why, when downloading, sometimes it is faster
to go across the pond.
And managed to avoid ultraviolet too.
Otherwise, some may have seen what you were up to.
Astro-mods trying to distract readers from the truth.

Especially that First Post. Man, was that redundant!
I suspect he does, and she is highly critical.
It's simple

I still believe both rovers will be alive
when and if Vista is ever released.
That depends upon what your definition of 'soon' is.
So why are they bothering with a CD?
They should just ask NSA and Microsoft for the information.

Don't use 'we' when you don't mean it!
No. There are other reasons however.
It could *appear* to be timezone related,
but it could be due to geography (via subnets).
At minimum, you could blame it on a bug.
Alternatively, it could be a feature.
Are you sure you trust what you see on the Internet?
Are you really sure?

Apparently not.
It's possible that there really was never any leak to start with.

And that is the point. Software embedded in hardware (firmware),
should also be free (as in freedom).
So, the Chief of Staff at the Department of State from Aug 2002 to January 2005 is *not* a credible insider? You must believe in the tooth fairy then.
