You know adama wont die but thats about it. Also regarding the prequel issue, lots of movies come about world war II and are quite good despite people knowing how world war II turned out they still seem to have good plots.
Well, everybody KNEW where Lord Vader (we're not worthy, your unholyness) came from, but that didn't stop Lucas from botching it.
IP lawyers and tech executives worry that Intellectual Ventures is less interested in changing the world with big ideas, and more focused on becoming an über patent troll, wreaking litigation havoc across industries with its patents.
Perhaps now it will finally compell change to the (broken) patent system.
I'm a little curious as to how the card is going to notify the user the system may have been compromised. If it involves the host OS in any way (dialog box) it could be bypassed by the rootkit. Maybe an LED on the card will switch from green to red? How often are you going to remember to check it?
A lot of good it will do if it's triggered everytime Microsoft releases a "security update."
Don't you mean "Donald Rumsfeld moved to head new 'Ministry of Peace'?" That's rather double double minus bad of you for misspelling the name of the ministry.
Then I hope that laptop includes SCSI RAID, since most of the "...simultaneously play three-dimensional games while encoding music or scanning for viruses..." activities involves more disk access than CPU processing, and we all know that ATA drives suck pretty hard when it comes to random I/O.
At the speed the craft is traveling, crashing into a body of water isn't that different from crashing into a concrete wall. To allow the craft to survive, it has to decelerate first.
Existence of anti-(insert pest name) software company is inevitable. To expect otherwise is to expect perfection where none exists. Certainly Vista will make anti-pest software business environment more... challenging. But till Microsoft achieve perfection, that market segment is not going away, not by a long shot.
Keep in mind that Islam bans any depiction of the prophet. Doing so not only land you in the hot seat with the government, but also with the Muslims. On the run from the government and islamic extrimists probably won't be as funny as you initially thought.
They're in a race that cannot be won. Game development cycle stretches into years with budget into millions, but has six to twelve months of shelf life and price point of about $40 a copy. A dud can bankrupt a company Application software (think M$ Office) on the other hand has shelf life of up to three years and price point of at least a hundred dollars.
In effect, while we have been busy ridiculing communist and totalitarian states of having citizen informants spying and reporting on each other, our government has been busy creating a parallel system.
I recall a common complaint by development houses about Sega consoles were that they were very difficult to code for because of hardware complexity. Isn't Sony now making the very same mistake that doomed Sega's console business? Speaking of which, is XB360 easier to code for than PS3?
Sorry, but I screwed up and remembered it wrong. The law in question (Jr. already signed it) was (in part) for "set top box" converting from Digtial to Analog. Duh. Still though, bet that analog out has macrovision embedded... Are macrovision scrubber still legal?
You can sign up your phone number for the nationwide don't-call list and politicians are still allowed to call you. Just the other night some dude from the democratic party disturbed my dinner. Are you surprised that e-mail is not treated any different?
The most "remarkable" part of it is that those calls only started AFTER signing up on the do-not-call list. Expecting politicians to regulate themselves is like... expecting a fox to faithfully gard a hen house.
There is another method to get round the HDCP trap, which is to buy one of the Spatz boxes http://www.engadget.com/2005/07/15/spatz-techs-dvi magic-killing-on-hdcp/ - there's no way that it could be embargoed - the point of the device is to enable legacy devices to receive HDCP output. That is not illegal, or unethical.
You do know that congress critters are passing laws to bridge the DRM divid by creating aid for people that can't afford the new DRM enabled digital TV sets?
Slashdot Mirror
So now the only question that remains is how to plug humans into that and form the first matrix.

Desktop Fusion.

If the physical location of your servers is compromised, no amount of security software can save you.
Keep in mind this is the country that gave the world Charles Darwin. It's obviously a form of... encoraged natural selection.
Shoot the lawyers.
that merit is unecessary in the said lawsuit (see SCO) but only need to generate enough FUD to halt or slow adaptation.

The joke of course, is that you could shout at them "admit it dammit, your name is Sanjay Kumar, not Roger."
Alienware could leverage DELL's volume to squeez vendors.

Surely, this is quite profitable, and IT'S ALL LEGAL.
I get the mental imagine of a boot stepped on a human face when I read the bit about foot icon...

Start fining companies a thousand dollars a head, and watch all those "policy violations" start getting noticed.
