Seagate Barracuda IV which is apparently discontinued
Not true--in fact, there is now a 200gb version.
ST3200822A Barracuda 7200.7 Plus 200 GB Ultra ATA/100 7200 RPM 8.5 ms avg DPC ST3200822AS Barracuda 7200.7 SATA 200 GB Serial ATA 7200 RPM 8.5 ms avg DPC
I'm chugging away with Seagate Barracuda 120gb drives with Super Whiz Bang Quiet Technology(TM), and am not very interested in adding high-pitch tones to my aural environment again.
...drives corporations and conglomerates to do morally repugnant things like suing its customers in order to achieve the all-important goal of preventing revenues from dropping from previous years'.
On the other hand, its also the same thing that drives corporations and conglomerates to be penny wise and pound foolish. Dirty money from suing children is a source of income that is necessarily limited. It will end. The individuals in the RIAA aren't stupid: they know it will end, too.
However, the RIAA, the entity itself, will charge ahead anyway.
If you were concerned about intentional holes in Windows permitting sekrat U.S. government access, wouldn't a properly configured firewall make the point moot?
There is also a small bit of fine print that you would think would motivate them quite a bit: it's federal law.
The fact that they will hem and haw and weakly "ask" it's member to comply, even in the face of that fact, says something about the people we are dealing with (or, I guess, who are trying to forcefully deal with us.)
Yet still my emails to VeriSign somehow end up at Network Solution's feet. At this point their responses aren't nearly so "helpful" with regard to volunteering opinions about the permissibility of VeriSign's decision to.com and.net into upheaval.
Thank you for choosing Network Solutions. Site Finder is not controlled or maintained by the Network Solutions Registrar. We are unable
to provide any support or assistance for this service. Please visit the Site Finder FAQs at
http://www.verisign.com/nds/naming/sitefinder/faq. html for additional information.
It appears that Network Solutions may have learned to tuck tail and run whenever anyone comes asking what the hell their parent company is doing.
When they responded to me last week, they told me that Verisign was "well within the guidelines" that Verisign set up in the document they created for their own "service."
Now I only get form responses from NetSol drones: "It seems you are having trouble with the SiteFinder service. Please read the SiteFinder FAQ at:..."

It reminds me of my days checking Aminet's recent uploads page over and over back in my Amiga days.

I sent an email to various VeriSign addresses about their abuse. Somehow one of them got routed to a Network Solutions drone.
The drone informed me in a form letter that VeriSign's practices were "well within the guidelines" established by the document Domain Name System Wildcards in Top-Level Domain Zones.
After deconstructing this, we are left with: VeriSign is within the guidelines of the document VeriSign wrote on the matter.

Wasn't the RIAA going after the "big time" filesharers?
Am I supposed to believe a 12-year-old girl living in a housing project had a 100gb archive of the latest dreck from RIAA member labels?
