When there was a short supply of DVD-r 4x media, it costs more as a result of short supply. There wasnt much demand, so no reason to have a large supply. As demand increased, supply increased and you had a lowering in price.
Err - Not to flame, but just so you know, you do look rather unintelligent saying that.
Read up on CPU Architectures. Theres a difference in the way the chips are made. Comparing the clock speed of an x86 to any chip, whether it be PPC or SPARC or what have you, can not be done - you need to compare application launch time, etc.
I think its interesting (Maybe the right word is insane?) how technology (specifically, the internet) is supposed to "bring us together", but laws such as the DMCA, and orginizations such as the RIAA and the MPAA push to limit how we can come together, as far as music (which is held by many to be the "universal language") and movies.

On IBM's desktop computers though, the protection isnt as strong.
I introduced the lock on that IBM Desktop Computer 300GL to my craftsman drill. Needless to say, the battle proved to be futile for the lock. About 5 minutes later, i was able to turn the lock with a paperclip.

I am a high school student myself. I designed my schools firewall (no joke), show up often to class with books (okay, so i suck at homework, but i get it in most of the time), love math, can type at 60wpm.
Though to be honest, im not the script kiddie type, im more of the sysadmin type. Which brings me to your last point, it doesnt make much sense to recode ipf;-)
I guess/my/ point is that you should be careful to not make such broad generalizations (i.e. stereotype).
Have you seen their new XServe? It runs their OS X Server edition, and has the option for an ATI 8500 (which, according to avscience, the gamma problem has been fixed)
Wow. That is pretty cool. Speaking of cube computers thoguh, i found some other interesting designs.. check out www.soldam.com for these really nice small looking cubes... Note the price is in yen though, use this to convert.

Economics! Supply and Demand.

wow!

Like comparing apples to oranges... (hah)
Can you imagine how this would be taken in Los Angeles?
"POLICE! Put your hands down or we'll frag you!"
Balmer would then hold a conference to encourage developers to write a good browser.
"Developers! Developers! Developers! Developers!"
Why not just stone the winners instead?

Will all of CmdrTaco's packets have the "evil" bit set to 1, beacuse the data they contain may lead to short term memory loss?
It's funny(or horribly cheesy, either way), laugh

Yes. A Default install doesnt have telnet enabled either...
no remote access == more secure than any remote access.

From the buglist:
8. Initialization produces too much Financial aid
Our financial aide algorithm is setting financial aid to about 50% of gross tuition...
"Thats not a bug, its a feature!"
Slightly offtopic, but no less interesting:
Pagans added the 'k' to "magic" so people could distinguish pagan religious practices(magick) and stage tricks(magic).
