    Yes, it takes a nifty domain suffix AND a group of people stupid enough to pay outrageous fees to get the suffix.

  4. Re:Artificial Life? on Virus Piggybacks Microsoft Mail Worm · · Score: 0

    And before I get hammered for this, "Is this the first (known) instance of one digital virus changing/modifying another digital virus?" was a rhetorical question and meant to be sarcastic.

  5. Artificial Life? on Virus Piggybacks Microsoft Mail Worm · · Score: 0

    Is this the first (known) instance of one digital virus changing/modifying another digital virus? Science fiction has always pointed to the "smart machines" that wake up, become self-aware, and realize that they don't need humans. Looks to me like virii have a jump start on this path...

    So, if you could get a strong enough standing wave on a train from cell phones, someone's head could just explode? COOL!!!

  9. Re:Technical Solution on "Deep Linking" Controversy Renewed in Texas · · Score: 0

    Your letter will be ignored simply because you didn't check for spelling errors. Next time please get someone to proof read your work. Solid arguments go out the window when they appear to have been drafted in crayon.

  10. Re:Their copyright? on "Deep Linking" Controversy Renewed in Texas · · Score: 0

    The Web site can place ads ANYWHERE within its pages, not just on the home page. If the Web site owners are concerned about this, then they should embed the ads into the content to which people are linking. On the other hand, if the Web site owners are deluded enough to think that anyone pays attention to Ads on the web anymore, then they have bigger problems to deal with than someone linking to their content.

  13. Market Saturation? on PS2 Vs. X-Box: Winner Emerging? · · Score: 0

    There are so many different avenues on which people can spend their entertainment dollars that this was bound to happen. I mean, how many video game consoles does a person really need to get their fix?

  16. Re:what's wrong with clones anyways? on First Human Clone Eight Weeks Along · · Score: 0, Informative

    When a human is created "the old fashioned way," the re is no DNA involved. RNA from the mother combines with RNA from the father to create DNA for the offspring. By this method, the sections of each RNA strand that have been affected by ageing are not likely to overlap, thereby reducing the chance that the offspring will get "bad genes."

    I'll take over for Linus. I don't have any experience nor do I have the knowledge to take on such a task, but hey, that's never stopped a fortune 500 CEO from getting ahead, right?

  24. Weakness on the desktop?!?!? on Does Open Source Software Really Work? · · Score: 0

    What the hell are you talking about? I run Linux on the desktop, and I get everything done that I need to get done. I also have the added benefit of NOT HAVING TO REBOOT DAILY. I'm tired of hearing that Linux can't compete in the desktop arena because of the lack of "Business Productivity applications." Most people use only the bare minimum feature set of MS Office and would be able to do everything they need to do with StarOffice. The problem isn't the users. The problem isn't the sys admins. The problem is that in many, many companies, the IT/MIS/Whatever manager is 100% clue-free when it comes to the true needs of his/her customers/users. In the world of IT, the inmates are truly running the asylum. Any of the rest of you folks out there have in IT/MIS manager that is totally incompetent?
