No sir/mam you are the idiot. At Sam's you sign a membership agreement that agrees to give away your rights. Circuit CIty has no such agreement. The police were over stepping their bounds and the law. Thanks for being just another asshole that would rather give away our rights than protect them. NOT!

TechnicianOnline.com is not hosted on campus. It's hosted by CollegePublisher.com so that they can host advertising.
I actually work for NCSU and would be the admin for the Technician server if we hosted it. I'm pretty thankful right now that we don't.
Bingo... yes they use DRM at the bequest of the labels, who are now trying to offer a product without so as to weaken iTunes and allow them to charge more... get with it already...
2) You still cannot buy a retail copy of OSX that will run on your shiny old MacIntel. You only get to buy either an upgrade or a retail pack for PPC. Can you think of any legitimate reason for this other than lockin?
Because it comes with every new machine, there hasn't been a major upgrade since the Intel's came out... There will be soon, then you can buy a copy and get all 1337 on it and make it run on your crappy PC....
Oh get the fuck over it already... if the dumb bitch lost the keys to her car she'd have to ask Honda to help. Now quit you rwhining and go flame someone on a Debian vs. Ubuntu thread....
Take a chill pill. Apple is a hardware company, they tried the licesning their OS, it gutted their hardware sales. Killing it was the right thing to do, though I didn't agree at the time.
As for you assumption that you can't use iTunes music and another music player, they make it very east to get around that, the DRM is there because the labels demanded it. And you can certainly use music other than iTunes Store bought music on an iPod, I've bought one song off of iTunes yet my iPod is slam full of legit music...
But at least you got your last statement correct. "So how comes that as a surprise that they are the major users of DMR technlology?"
User is correct. They are the largest user because the labels forced it on them....
I work with them everyday. They're not as tech savvy as I would have thought if I didn't get the chance to work with them. Even the CS majors aren't doing to well.... I hear all the stereotypes about Linux and OSX, education is not doing it's job...
Troll my ass... it's the truth.. Wal Mart will pull the same underhanded business practices with Apple that they do with every other company. Steve needs the balls to go froward without Wal Mart... the studios will cave...
I would say he proved his point, and in a very dramatic fashion. Wikipedia cannot be trusted as a source. Remember back a bit when our illustrious politicians were playing games on Wikipedia?
LMAO... you can't even be serious... oh maybe you cry at night because you can't have a Mac... or a women... damn dude you're whinier than the Whiney Mac Fanboy...

the truth hurts yo so bad mr. windows/pc fanboy....
The files aren't in the locations I would expect. uhhhh... locate it's a command, there are man pages, google is you friend, move on
Some people paid attention during the dot.com bubble, learned a few things and are happy to just do what they want to do.... I dig that attitude.
Wow, I think this may be the most rascist comment I've ever seen on Slashdot. Someone should put the bigot out of his mosery...
I work with them everyday. They're not as tech savvy as I would have thought if I didn't get the chance to work with them. Even the CS majors aren't doing to well.... I hear all the stereotypes about Linux and OSX, education is not doing it's job...
Lulu.tv has been doing this for a while now. They're just jumping on the bandwagon....
Troll my ass... it's the truth.. Wal Mart will pull the same underhanded business practices with Apple that they do with every other company. Steve needs the balls to go froward without Wal Mart... the studios will cave...
that's what Apple would be doing... Grow some balls Steve...
big business doesn't care until it affects the bottom line.... wow! Who would've thought it.
