This wasn't a Chinese sub sitting off the coast of SF. Our military would've dropped a collective deuce. This is missile-waving to get someone's attention.

No kidding? You mean everyone used a default password for years, and didn't complain? Definitely a spin to take the heat off the company. The software should come with a big read warning sign, "Change the default password, and give each user a unique password!"
Sure, but the point he claims is that TV2Me can get "live" quality video from anywhere. Whereas, Cringely stated in his article he couldn't get nearly that quality even on the same intranet.
How would the legal aspect work out? Seems like you'd have to sign a fairly strict license saying the movie studio still owns what your computer rendered, copyright, etc.
There's no reason to choke off Linksys. The reason for the purchase was to gain entry into the home market (i.e. less functional, less robust, but cheaper).
I doubt Linksys will be crushed.

All Slashdotters who post before 10 a.m. get non-qualified stock options. Get a piece of blank paper, write a number on it, and there you go.

Very cool idea nonetheless.
How about "X++" ?
It's called Turner-Time (for Ted Turner). His tv network has been doing this for years. They usually bump the shows about 5 minutes.

Ah, but in Soviet Microsoft, Windows gives you the boot.
Sad that it applies to those working on the computers, too.

standard now.
In Soviet Russia, the FBI hacks you.
