In my former life as an Exchange Admin, I installed SpamAssassin for Exchange before McAfee purchased it.
Worked great, except it had a fun bug where if an e-mail with an attachment went to a distribution group where some users were being filtered but others weren't, the attachment kinda disappeared.
(And it did other bad things to the mail store.)
The product's probably much better now, but I'd still prefer a mail gateway these days.
Or maybe sometimes that's the most valuable thing you get out of your $60.
If you buy a $60 game and think that the most valuable thing you get out of it is the plastic disc, maybe you should learn how to make better purchasing decisions.
Slashdot and Digg are not capable of censorship. The first ammendment states "Congress shall make no law....". Slashdot is not Congress, Digg is not Congress.
You're pretty retarded, there, Son.
They're capable of censorship, all right.
It just isn't "illegal" or "unconstitutional" when they do it.
I said, "for all intents and purposes zero," and "not much profit."
I'm trying to tell you that iTMS exists pretty much as a way to get people to buy iPods, which are much more profitable than iTMS could ever hope to be.
Yes, I understand that Apple has a vested interest in selling devices, but the content they're selling (Lost, Battlestar Galactica, etc) is of interest to many people other than Apple fans. I think those content producers should be more interested in widening their potential mobile-audience.
Apple fans? Wider mobile audience?
You're a goddamned retard.
1) If only "Apple fans" were buying iPods and content from iTMS, sales would be much lower.
2) To my knowledge, nothing's stopping the production houses from selling their content through another store. They picked iTMS because they liked FairPlay and because of the gigantic installed base.
The Nurumberg trials voided that defense... I'm surprised people still get away with the "I was only acting under orders" gig...
The Nuremberg trials were also the worst abuse of ex post facto justice in recent memory. I wouldn't really hold them up as a proud moment in the world history of criminal justice.

You had me at "Hello."
since the rest of the world is a lot more free & liberal than you are (patents, riaa , illegal prisoners, bunch of stupid laws, )
Yeah. Russia and China have neither stupid laws nor illegal prisoners. They're bastions of liberty and freedom.
France is using emergency powers right now to stop rioting. They're declaring certain meetings illegal.
Just a few days ago, we on Slashdot learned that in Canada, libel laws are such that the burden of proof lies with the publisher, essentially stifling little guy exposés of corporate malfeasance.
The UK's had anti-terror laws on the books for years that make USA PATRIOT look like the 1st, 4th, 5th, and 6th Amendments by comparison.
You're a goddamned retard.
But, hey, I guess at least you don't have to pay a lot for your substandard medical care.
My last phone was a motorola i60, and if you hit the down arrow on the navigation pad, you got the recent calls list. Nice! Too bad the 6230 doesn't do it like that.
I sure don't accept many of their practices, including speed traps, DUI roadblocks, and red light cameras...particularly the latter, where the accused is not even given a chance to face their accusor.
You're kidding, right? They mail you a ticket with photos clearly showing that you ran the red light. I'll take that over a cop's subjective judgement any day of the week.
Having spent yesterday afternoon and all day today trying to figure out why my access-groups aren't working properly after upgrading from 6.2 to 7.0, I would hesitate to call the PIX full-featured.

I haven't read the entire agreement, nor do I care to. My attorneys will, and they'll then recommend my course of action.
Binding arbitration, forgoing your day in court.
You did have "your attorneys" read it before you signed it, right?

2. Sell plastic discs (games) for $60.
You must be a Linux user if you really think that all that's being sold is a plastic disc.

It's actually a Mad Lib.

Apple's margin on iTMS purchases is, for all intents and purposes, zero. Not much profit there.
Apple's margin on iPods is much, much larger than zero. Lots of profit there.
Apple knows where the profit is and where the profit isn't.
How a company that is profiting exactly with "I want to buy and not just copy" (iTMS) fails to understand that.
So iTMS songs work on non-Apple portable players without any DRM-removal hackery now?
I am sure you are correct in the sense of legal standing, but if I own it, I should be able to set ALL the rules. If you don't like it, go else where.
AC's Lunch Counter
(no niggers)
We tried that and decided we didn't really want to do that.
Apple charges money for Mac OS X.
Did you pay them for it?
Don't make me get all Jennifer-Aniston-in-the-car-scene-in-Office-Space on your ass.
It's a stolen copy, being used in violation of the EULA.

"Revenue" and "profit" are two different things.
Er...that's how you get the phonebook.
Get recent calls by just pressing send.
My last phone was a motorola i60, and if you hit the down arrow on the navigation pad, you got the recent calls list. Nice! Too bad the 6230 doesn't do it like that.
Mine does.
I (T-Mobile) roam on Cingular in some parts of Maine (between Augusta and Bangor on I-95).
It seems to me that I had an old 486 AMIBIOS that would do DST, and that I had to turn it off to make it behave sanely with Linux.
I think that's what he meant by "broken."

(Then again, I don't run red lights.)
I don't use Cisco's GUI.
Never have.
Never will.
It's no substitute for a full-featured Cisco Pix
