They've been airing the BSA Truce commercial all over the place in MD. I managed to catch it on videotape, I'll mp3 it tonight and follow-up to this comment.
A GDROM contains two sessions, a low density and a high density one (look at the disc) and your PC was reading the low density session. Sonic Adventure uses SegaOS, not WinCE. The game data resides in the second session, which is not accessible to standard CDROM drives without doing firmware hacks.
If you've used pppd in the past, it's a no-brainer. I was doing this with a FreeBSD box when I got my DC a little over a year ago. Just get the modems to connect (blind dial on the DC, ATA on the PC), and start pppd on the serial port. Not very fast, but it's the best we have until the DC LAN adapter gets to the US in January.
Saturn games checked the ring text before allowing a program to boot, but surprisingly enough, Dreamcast does not. Thus, you can boot an unmodded DC from the second session of a standard run-of-the-mill CDR. (For now, at least. Sega has announced on the dcdev list that a CDR-disabled version of the DC will be pushed into production in a few months.)
The quote you refer to was taken way out of context. Sega is hard at work on their next console (likely to be based on some of Sega's new Naomi II arcade technology) as we speak.
Hmm, looks like you've got Ridge Racer for PS2 vs. Shotouko Battle for DC. If anyone's interested, I just happen to have a few more screenshots of shotouko battle 2 lying around. Nice game, stays at about 60fps unless there's a ton of cars on screen, which usually never happens when you're racing fast enough.
Be sure to mirror DeCSSPlus as well! The old DeCSS code will not work on newer DVDs since they use hard-coded keys. DeCSSPlus will brute-force all the keys on the disc, and is immune to any further key-pulling antics. You may still need the old DeCSS to authenticate to and unlock the drive. Or so I've been told......
I know, I know.. I was a quick grep and I miscounted. I was doing some of the question moderating and did a few/lastlog commands on certain keywords during the forum to see if there were any duplicate questions being asked. The/lastlog results wound up being added to my log and, thus, in the quick count as well.

Well that didn't take long...

Just remember, Soul Calibur was a Dreamcast launch title.
You've probably seen this already, but Sega's marketing department has got it's attitude back and is taking advantage of the PSX2 crunch.
"Building demand" or not, you can be sure Sega is having a field day.
My blue-LED Dreamcast is running scared, as we speak.
MP3
Someone on SlashNET brought up the 800 number thing a few days ago. MP3 is here for the telephonically impaired, or something.
And I'm not talking about the fake Mario 2 that the US got, either.

Complain to jwz, he's the one who wrote it. ;>
right here
Happened while dropping down "alt" in the news reader in WinNT. Still, all in all, Netscape 6 PR3 is much better than 4.75.
Seems to be slashdotted, Mirror
NetBSD has been running on Dreamcast for a few months now. Of course there's no root drive to mount.. yet..
Seems pretty simple.
It gets worse.. If any of his friends take it out of his closet after October 28th, DC can sue them for anti-circumvention under the DMCA.
You can do all of that with FlasKMPEG. Under Windows, at least.
It's Kalisto's exit strategy. Just like the still-unproven rumors of Utopia getting busted by Sega.
