Uhm, 1999 called and they want their bullshit excuses back. The general concensus on/. for several years has been that individual infringers should be punished and not the technology. Here, you have the RIAA doing just that, instead of trying to get I2 banned or restricted.

Can somebody mod this as offtopic? The last State of the Union Address has nothing to do with the book we're discussing here.
When I upgraded my fiance's Powermac from 10.2 to 10.3, I popped in the disc, waited and rebooted. Everything was the same, except for the upgraded OS. The last time I did a straightforward upgrade of Windows was going from W95 to W98.
IMO, the introduction of the Family Pack is why Apple had to increase the number of authorized playback machines for iTMS-purchased songs from 3 to 5. Otherwise, you would have this hypothetical family with 5 fully-licensed Macs and the ability to play purchased songs on only 60% of the machines, without going through the hassle of authorizing/deauthorizing computers.
How long before someone figures out how to get OS X running on one of these? Or, if it's easier to get a PPC Linux distro installed, then it's just a matter of installing Mac-On-Linux afterwards.
Yes, and now all those mature people can feel like they are young and hip since they had to watch MTV to see the launch of XBII. It's all part of the plan.
A lot of the posts here show how little people know about accounting. Since they aren't getting paid their salaries, the money they would have received is flowing down to the bottom line and is getting taxed at the corporation level instead.
Paper tape?!...what a lightweight. It used to be delivered in a 26-volume set of encyclopedia-sized books that contained mimeograph sheets of punchcards that you were expected to punch yourself! My old neighborhood as a kid was filled with door-to-door video game salesmen that had nice hair and wore a decent suit!
The "no server" rule is generally in there to cover the ISPs if you're serving up warez. Otherwise, if they make a stink, threaten to take your business elsewhere. IME, Comcast has never cared that I've been using torrents.
The parent is referring to a TV commercial from Sony that talks about the PS9, which works by interfacing with your brain. It was really a commercial for the PS2 in the end, but it was a cute idea.
"First, I actually like the voice from the Mainframe Beast Wars series."
But that wasn't Optimus Prime; it was a ship captain who was named Optimus. "Prime" being the designation for the leader (i.e. Sentinel Prime, Optimus Prime, Rodimus Prime).
The only "new" Transformers series that meshed perfectly with the old one were Beast Wars and Beast Machines. They even brought back Ravage for a few episodes and went *deep* into the original mythology with Vector Sigma. I can't get into that Armada stuff.

There's a good chance that your 448th cousin could be your husband or wife. With a connection that close, how could you not investigate? :)
Nvidia makes some pretty good cards.

This sounds like something Google could implement basically for free; thereby cutting out anyone's chances on selling the service.
"...you don't see them snooping in on your hairdrier usage."
Well, that's the definition of snooping, isn't it? You're not supposed to see them doing it!

Service packs are free (ie 10.3.7 to 10.3.8). We're going up to 10.4 here with whole new features. But I'll probably stick with 10.3 personally.

"Keep your friends close and your enemies closer."
Closer, in the instant case, meaning the same continent or at least someplace where we can capture and prosecute the fsckers.

"...a more mature market?..."
Yes, and now all those mature people can feel like they are young and hip since they had to watch MTV to see the launch of XBII. It's all part of the plan.
But at the end of ROTJ, in the new DVD version, you here someone yelling "Weesa free!" in the cut-scene to Naboo.

Well, that little quip about FDR's legs really offended me...it's too soon!
Yeah, and why can't all these people that complain about DRM on CDs just admit that it makes it harder for them to pirate music?

If by that you mean "bad meat" in the can, here's to wishing!

Well, if he's an iPod in the new movie, at least we know his ejectable minions won't be batteries.

Exactly...if you have a thesaurus, use it!
