Yes they can remotely kill your machines ( if they are getting updates, and are online ).
And how do you propose to stop the upgrade treadmill? Few OSX shops can survive as an island. Remember the new DRMized docuemnts coming to an email box near you soon? Unless you have the latest and greatest MSoffice, and properly 'keyed' you wont get to read that important document from your customer/supplier/attorney....
While they have resended a enterprise key in the past, if there lots of keys that get out in the wild, the rath of the customer would win.
Just hose up one powerful senators PC, or worse, and its game over for all this garbage.
Well, regardless they are worthless waterbags to me, so who cares if they have chosen to use a flawed configuration? I dont care about them, and I am all that matters.
Except for the government taking away my rights, the entire concept of tacking unrelated items on a bill to get it passed under the wire pisses me the hell off.
Bills should be about ONE subject. Period. And anyone that even tries to tack on crap should be shot on site.
We have lost control of our government, its long past time for a 2nd revolution.
If you arent a large enough customer, then you are just blowing hot air as they could really care less.
Not falting them, they have to weigh the options of the time/mone spent to help you out, relative to the revenue gained. PR of being 'nice' doesnt always bring home the bacon.
Yes, id like to sue the government, as for at leats 13 years straight they drank TREATED water. The government must not be treating the water properly, as people who commit these crimes have been found to have drank lots of this TREATED water in their life.
And ill come visit you in prison when you step on the wrong toes.
The world is different today, you protest in the wrong way you get detained.
But if you want to pretend you still have those rights and want to 'fight' for them, be my guest. Until we ALL are willing to, the government has the upper hand.
Here in the usa, what rights we had left pretty much ended on 9.11.01, when the government seized the opportunity to grab the rest of them after a tragic event.

But if your suspect hasnt been taken into custody as of yet? Why not just 'swab' the entire world population.

And they change your default site to the 'pay up buddy, we have your IP and know where you live' Vista ordering page.
Nah, they will just invent another crisis to keep the prices up. Much as the oil companies do.

'darwine' ( go look it up ).
Codeweavers could have tried the same concept, instead of forgetting about a rather large potential user base.
No.. Really? Other people actually exist?
Well, regardless they are worthless waterbags to me, so who cares if they have chosen to use a flawed configuration? I dont care about them, and I am all that matters.
Well, i dont. I wont, so its a totally useless product.
Ever hear of Darwine? It was to port wine over to the G series. But it lost steam when jobs moved to the dark side and sold out.
Oh, and i could care less what the f-ing acronym means.
So BFD. Doesnt help us Gx people at all.
.. so what?
its just wine on iFBSD

They must be either kidding, or stoned.

I prefer the version without the A. It was far more thoughtful of a remark.
But either works, and its good hes vindicated before his death.
Just set your old pc out there by the street, and it magically goes away.

The Government is liable. Yes. must sue them.
1 - bazillions of dollars
2 - virtual monopoly
And perhaps #3.. patience.
Bullshit.
This is slashdot. Why on earth does it matter that i dont proofread?
its 9/28
Before 10/1 i expect to see action from you and read about it in the paper.
Otherwise shut your face.
Tomrrow, microsoft will take over the VM market with a marginal product, but will still take over.
Lets start with the loss of the right to privacy. Then we can move on to others.

Its been well documented that it took place.
And the reversal was only partial.
I think you meant "when did our rights end".
Here in the usa, what rights we had left pretty much ended on 9.11.01, when the government seized the opportunity to grab the rest of them after a tragic event.
ya, got it wrong.. it was from distant memory. ... oops
... something to buy :)
