All you have to do in France is file a suit, then you can use the police as your own private invasion force to execute a search warrant? So, for example, the Leonardo arts organization could file a silly little nuisance suit against Transasia, then use it as an excuse to raid their offices?
I am going to send $100 to the legal defense fund.
It's too bad this wasn't covered in Judge Jackson's FoF. Why does MS think they own my MBR? Maybe it's time for (yet another) class action suit for all people who have had to waste time recovering from this.
I first ran into it when trying to configure a win95-OS/2 dual boot system. At least OS/2 had warnings about this, and their boot manager could handle it.
Last night/this morning I woke up and thought "Wow, that moon really is bright", and went over to the window. It took me a few seconds to realize that it was my neighbor putting up Christmas lights, with the help of a 500 watt halogen work light aimed right at my window.
Looks like it worked. I probably never would have heard about it if it wasn't posted here. How fqar do you think they would have gotten if they just issued a press release, or tried to get CNN to publish a clarification?
Likewise for me. A few weeks ago I went to amazon.com to buy a book. Before I "one-clicked" I reconsidered, based on their patent enforcement. I stopped by the B&N on the way home from work, and had the book I wanted the same day.
Maybe I should send an email to Amazon every time I purchase from someone else?
") automatically return to a charging station when its batteries get low b) empty itself when it fills with dirt "
Why not have it filter out the organic material (bugs, spiders, slugs, small mammals, etc), put it into a fermentation container to generate methane, which it could then use later to generate energy to charge its batteries?
Do you mean sending "undesirable people" and leaving them there? That could be a good idea, we can get rid of them permanently. Oops, the British already thought of that with Australia. Never mind.
Originally it was Compact Edition. When they realized that was too much of a stretch they changed to either Consumer Edition, or Consumer Electronics. I think I even saw yet another variation recently.
M$ wanted a new name is because WinCE was becoming known in the general population. Maybe they thought no one could bastardize Windows Powered something demeaning.
How about WiPed? You could pronounce it either "wiped" like "I wiped my ass with it", or "whipped" as in "That OS is really p-whipped".

First, IANAL, but it seems to me that the FoF is now a public legal document. It should be able to be used in any subsequent civil case, even if the two sides settle. I would think (and hope) that the DOJ wouldn't even have the power to agree to withdraw the FoF. Of course, a settlement might preclude being found guilty by Judge Jackson, which would have been even more damaging in other cases.
This is voluntary mediation, to see if it looks like the two sides can come to some agreement on a remedy. All I can say is "Not bloody likely". Also, can this be taken as an admission of guilt by MSFT?

When will these people ever get it right?

Looks like my $50 limit order for 1000 shares won't be filled. I'm also glad it wasn't a market order. Oh well, maybe Schwab got me 100 shares.

Our FUD Factory is better than your FUD Factory because:
- Ours is Open Source FUD - anyone can add to it, yours is proprietary
- Our FUD is POSIX compliant
- Ours FUD Factory doesn't need to be restarted several times a day
- We don't have a FUD monopoly and the DOJ isn't about to close it down
- Ours is just plain cooler than yours
""Design Patterns" by Booch is the hottest CS book out now."
So, does Booch have anything new to say, or does he just repackage the same old O-O stuff he's been peddling for years?
from a bunch of starving bread stealers?
Maybe the cable company can fund a manned trip to Mars with the profits.

let's say US$10,000, they might be taken more seriously.

It's the IRS that can bust into your room and shoot you for no reason, without due process.
Now, I'll go retire to my room and wait for the FBI to burn it down.
on the head of an AC, who keeps banging it against a brick wall.

What compensates for the Heisenberg compensators?
Also, never, ever cross the beams. Unless, of course, the situation calls for it.
"You end up looking like complete and total morons."
I think you answered your own question.
Anyone know when it will be?
