This isnt true, you can low level format the drive, and that will get rid of ANY trace of ANY data. It physically goes through every part of the drive and resets it all to 0. Granted it takes like, a day or two to do it. Atleast in my experience.
I read an article a few days ago about this somewhere, I dont remember where though. Anyway, appearently Nixon was going to erase ALL the tapes, but he realized there were so many of them it would take his lifetime to erase. So he chose to just erase a tiny bit of one tape. The tape was recorded over "between 7 and 11 times". The company that decodes that tape, while getting no compensation from the government, will be rich in publicity alone.
If I can copy songs FROM the unit TO the computer. Does it? The iPod prevents you from doing this am I correct? Now I can be like those Mac pirates and walk into stores and steal WINDOWS software!!! Yay!
From the article Linux tends to be portrayed as an archenemy of Microsoft and its Windows operating system. In the long run, the rise of an alternative like Linux will limit Microsoft's future growth and market dominance. But in the near term, as the Hollywood experience shows, Linux is gaining at the expense of proprietary versions of Unix.
Its good news, you dont have to call me an idiot. Good lord, im quite SURE that Microsoft was pressuring them to move away from IRIX, and it worked, they went to linux.
But I have to say this. It just proves that Disney isnt controlled by Microsoft. I love it. Microsoft puts so much pressure on alot of companies to stick with their software, or to only develop for Windows etc etc. This just shows that Microsoft has no leverage with Disney. This is well, damn good. It has made my day:).
many new and upcoming models of mobile phones with features like color LCDs, GPRS and digital cameras built-in from major Telco companies like NTT DoCoMo, Panasonic, Kyocera, Samsung and Sony Ericsson.
Hey guys, how bout we get the 3g network deployed a little more before bombarding us with useless reasons to buy a new cell phone? You'll get more business out of me with a nice 3g network than you will with color LCD's.
Why is IBM wasting their time? who knows. I do know IBM is a VERY political company.
Because they know Linux is evolving and growing faster than any other unix operating system out there. "Free eh? Open source eh? And we can hack it? And call it our own? And mass market it?". Seriously, IBM is really marketing Linux because everyone keeps hearing about it. "What is this 'Linux'? I dont know, but IBM is backing it, so it must be big!" and up goes the stock.
I thought to be an open source developer you need to take one CSc course in university and then you could just fly at it. Or at least thats the way it seems from a lot of the code i've seen.
Its not the code, its more or less licensing, copywrights, business stuff for the big companies in open source. Someone please mark him -1 Troll/Flamebait.
Circuit City Phases Out VHS
This coming from the creators of Divx.
I do have to say though, once you get used to DVD's, VHS just seems so, dirty. You feel grody after watching a VHS tape, like you've cheated on your faithful DVD player or something...*shivers*

There are three ways to do this, well four.
1. Inherit it.
2. Become an entertainer and make millions that way.
3. Start your own business or...
4. Real estate
They should sell a cartridge that you can hook up to your pc and download regular nes roms to, and charge like $100 bucks for it. I would EASILY hand over my hundred bucks for something like that.
How to beat Microsoft: Just do what Bill Gates did, steal someone elses technology/ideas and sue anyone else that tries the same thing. What, didnt you see Pirates of Silicon Valley?

Hmmm, have you compared today's MS gui to Apple's gui? I dont know about you, but the Windows GUI today is alot easier to use than the Apple one.

Better to get sued for violating environmental laws than get in trouble for whatever it is they erased.

First of all, before any of us were allowed to contribute to Linux, we were required to take an "Open Source Developers" class.
