Claria...Clar-Ia...sounds like a disease doesn't it?
For someone with more time on their hands than me: 1)Start some media fear mongering about a "Claria Virus". 2)Include instructions for removing said virus. 3)Feel good about what you have done to help society.
0) That the government helped to turn MS into a monopoly.
1) Positive returns.
IBM, Sun, Apple, etc won't keep Microsoft in check--they can't. A serious blunder on their parts could kill them, but such is unlikely and they've had a good history of competing with products when they have nothing released yet...
Just as the US government has an interest furthering Microsoft's status, other governments have their own interests in this area to look after(China, India, and Germany are good examples). And just as Microsoft can use it's near monopolies in some markets further other itself in others, it's competitors can do the same if they work together to keep them out of those markets. This can be difficult, but is far from impossible.
Ultimately the free market will control Microsoft. Those companies out there that fear them- IBM, Sun, Apple, Nokia, Sony, HP, etc will keep them in check. Those, and governments helping out their domestic software industry.
Complaining about Sun giving up it's principles is pointless- they are a business. Their sole purpose is to make money. And for $2kkk they probably got their money's worth given the circumstances.
I usually just ssh into the routers and watch the debug output. I feel inclined to spend more time (in the interests of thoroughness) at it lately since my workplace banned gaming. They want me to look busy all the time...
It's only a matter of time until someone gets caught on a fishing line.

The thin-film solar technology, although low in peak conversion efficiency, can potentially deliver a whopping 2500 watts/kilogram.
So much power did that 'anti ballistic missile' laser require? Or rather what would it take to put three or four of them onboard, and use them by remote-control against ground targets in realtime? No more depleted uranium- shells in tanks, just a laser range finder and a directinal antenna. In theory.
I can't imagine being caught in a mind where my bottomless hate for some politician overrides all other concerns.
You this sort of thing too seriously. Try to think of it as humor fueled by a healthy cynicism 99% of politicians create that makes the other 1% look bad.
It may take a celestial body hit to Earth' before governments take any meaningful steps to address this danger
Someone whom the mass media regards as credible simply needs to state that Al Qaeda might be able to hijack an asteroide. As long as the Saudi's give Bush the ok, there's little doubt that we'll be secured.
How are they going to save the data if the power goes out? That's a lot of data to store on hard copies.
This is supposed to be a caching system, not a long term archive. They also undoubtedly have both Uninteruptable Power Supplies (think racks full of car batteries) and generators to protect from power failure. The databases that it caches are more than likely mirrored at multiple locations, and backed up daily, if not in realtime to an autmated tape library system.
A RamSan 320 unit holds up to 64GB of RAM in a 3U rack unit. The US government order is housed in three full height rack units. There are over 320 2Gbit/s Fibre Channel ports and the aggregate I/O rate is 36Gbit/s.
What'll be funny is when the line at the airport is held up by some pissed granny in an exoskeleton suit throwing a security screener into a 30 foot ceiling for "making her miss her flight".

Talk to them about how evil copyright infringement hurts poor starving artists.

QuickTime is to Apple what PostScript is to Adobe, who is about to experience how it feels to be the Paint Shop Pro of the video.

Nah.
Just post the name of your school here and let the problem take care of itself.

I might also add that with your head encased in the plastic bubble it would be much more difficult to find and pull said hook from your ass.
Say...they should feature Cartman operating one of these in a Southpark Episode!

I think the MPAA has got something else in Lockyer's mouth too.
They didn't want there to be any hickups on his part.

My guess is it's another OSDN site, as there are slashboxes linking to sourceforge.jp and thinkgeek among others. Nice try though.
Running windows gurentees that they'll catch most of the smut surfers by the adware they'll accumulate.
In the interests of political correctness, the Microsoft's lawyers insisted on using the phrase "anal induced shafting."
Contract law- it can be a bloody/shitty business.

No comment needed.
And 10,000 Microsoft employees cancel their subscriptions in protest to their communist tendancies the next day.
It's a joke. Laugh.
