If I get a cheap wireless pci card and throw that in an already networked machine would I be able to connect to the net through that with a wireless pcmcia card in my laptop?
They have been jerking around the press/graphic arts industry for years! Steve Jobs even made a reference to them in a speech, calling them the 'latecomers' or some such thing.
I don't know if Apple and Quark had any sort of 'arrangement' with the OS X version, but Quark definitely dropped the ball and hurt Apple sales.
Frankly, I'm now using InDesign, which is native OS X and *so* rocks over Quark I can't believe I ever touched that pile of code. I've been spreading the word, and Quark may become vapor itself...
Please see these informative PDFs
to see how to make the RIAA lose $12,000 and more! You may need to download the listed files several hundred thousand times, as they are updated frequently.
Why is the RIAA going after people who have little to do with piracy? Why not go after flea market guys who have burned copies of thousands of albums and ARE SELLING THEM?
This guy should have countersued- I would happily donate 100 bucks to the person who doesn't take the 'easy' way out and goes toe to toe with the RIAA.
Contact the EFF, find a lawyer who is willing to take the case.
There is no reason why they should not be on the ropes for this. Put your life savings into fighting the battle - make the issue known, ask for help. You'll get it.
I would love to see the justice system bog down and stop because 43 million Americans turned themseves in for DMCA violations, Copyright infringement, IP theft, and running Bonzi Buddy.
So much for a representational government - I wonder how many Senators have kids with a pile of 'illicit' mp3s/warez/mp4s.
Ah...they're probably all out drinkin' and pukin' with Jenna.

The last 20 years have been a blur -- Star Control II, Wolf3D, X-Wing, Quake II, Uplink, and lately UT2K3. All because Woz and Jobs decided to slap together an affordable home computing system.
How the hell did you get all that to run on a//c? I can't even get Quake *1* to play on mine!
Notice stupid patents getting applied for and gotten? The Patent Office is all about $$$; they will grant you a patent for anything, because they no longer have to defend their decisions. The gov loves a profit, especially when it's made of your backs!
Bitch-slappin', 12 sandwich-eatin', high-priced laywers paid for by larger and larger companies make deals to keep the kids out of the sandbox.
Why would you change if you were the patent office? You get your money, the companies battle it out, the lawyers are red-eyed with hookers and blow - everybody wins!
First - dumpster diving has nothing to do with the DMCA. Nothing. What monsterpackets is doing is no different from me grabbing a turntable that someone tossed and selling it on eBay.
Second - if this is such a *huge* problem, why not FIX it?
Sell the packets in bulk to monsterpackets or someone else.
buy a shredder and destroy them.
Shit, this DMCA crap is tired already - it took me two minutes to think of these things, and I haven't even started drinking yet.
I never would have gone out and bought X for $xxx.xx, I copied/warezed it. I now know how to use it, it has proven itself valuable, and will convince my boss and or wife and or myself that we need it.
98% of the time this will be true, 27% of the time I will not be able to figure the program out, 72% of the time this doen't hold true for games, 34% of dentists say I need to brush their teeth.
Statistics by someone who doesn't have my best interests in mind are worthless when I have personal experience backing me up.
If you were running MS Bob and ran Windows Update, Bob would come out with a broken leg, scabs and open wounds, bandages that seem to eat away the skin, a crutch that would constantly fold under pressure, advanced Parkinson's and Alhzimer's disease, paranoid delusions, amnnesia, a blind eye, a deaf ear, a constant gnawing hunger, a penchant for telling you what you want to hear and gossiping about you when you're out of earshot, a tendency to fall, willingness to disregard you and pretend that you wern't in the room, a constant need for space, a helpful way of stating the obvious repeatedly, lethargy, unwillingness to work with others, nagging you about how he doesn't feel 'connected', a poor work ethic, the abillity to stare at nothing while looking busy, and would most likely lock your file cabinets and give the key away to someone you don't know, all while trying to sell you something you already own.
Kept you from sharing your playlists off your subnet I think...there is a/. story about it here
The dumb thing is that everyone who cared about it caught it before hand, and every one who doesn't care most likely doesn't share their lists.
I was going to post that MS should go to a Apple Software Update sort of thing - it's easy, the patches usually work flawlessly and you can get self contained disk images of all of them to install at your leisure.
Then I realized that this probably wouldn't work, as Apple has a much smaller subset of hardware to deal with than MS.
Which got me thinking that perhaps MS isn't all bad? Maybe its all the crap that people try to use with their PCs from ISA days, and all the spyware that seems to be omnipresent in any shareware install that's causing all the problems. I mean, a browser intergrated into the OS can't be that bad can it?
Then I remembered that Bill Gates eats babies with the devil every afternoon at 4 pm.
I think, therefore, I rant. You expected different on/.?
Presumably the applications which major publishers will trust will enforce limits on what users to do with "content".
The assumption is that someone will break the DRM in some way and extract the content and distribute an unencrypted copy that does not require DRM authentication of the client.
You are making a pile of assumptions - DRM will work for these P2P apps, but someone will crack it for 'content'. It doesn't sound all that clear cut to me.
Tying a reputaion to hardware is great, till you want to want to shed it. If you truly want to pirate crap, you'll also want to be anonymous as possible. Your online reputation can be easily managed by a p2p app. Waste is a good start, whitelisting, and a mojo/karma system are others.
DRM is not about to make pirating easier, it will make pirating easier to procecute.
I will agree, if DRM is broken for 'content', if p2p/script authors cannot use this flaw to their reputation's advantage, if the **IAs can't attack your client through the exploit that allows you to 'hijack' their 'content'... basically if we live in a Candyland where all we want is as it is, then DRM P2P will *help* piracy.
Otherwise, no. Security, reputation, and restricted-rights free independent 'content' are possible and available right now, without hardware DRM that I have to jump through hoops to circumvent.
Show me where DRM gives *advantage* to independent creators over the Big 5 and other media publishers and maybe I'll fall in line. I don't think it will. Will regular joes be able to afford a "Publisher's Key"? Why should they have to?
How is this going to help piracy? Aren't all these programs, music, movies and whatever passes for 'content' for 'consumers' going to be *locked* to one machine? What is the use of sharing a hash of bits?
Unless they are hacked, and then they won't be allowed to run on a Pull-a-DRM machine.
Ever since DRM first reared its ugly head, I have been (hysterically, at times) hollering about how this is about 'content' control. Monopolizing the *abillity* to publish. (Subscribers can find many posts of mine dealing with that, amongst all the trolling I do;)
P2P will NOT be 'secure' on a Pull-a-DRM. It will not work! Even if the Pull-a-DRM system is broken by 3 lines of script, those who use the 3 lines will be sued or charged under some **IA brokered law. Sharing will be *restricted* to what the **IAs allow through their 'special' keys.
Sure, copy, share, rip mix burn the newest crap as pushed on Clear Channel, but try and nab a homemade mix of some band you saw last night
or a little video from your friend on vacation and it just won't work.
Maybe MS has got it all figured out - somehow Pull-a-DRM just *knows* that Billy's video email is ok, but somehow I doubt it. Remember, YOU DON'T GET TO DECIDE - you are NOT TRUSTED.
Everyone needs to realize that Pull-a-DRM will KILL what the net has done for independent musicians, filmmakers, artists, writers, and coders.
It will be a cancer, slowly spreading. Mom will get the new PC "MSN 10" with the 'Super-Security'(for the kids). Things won't run, she'll bitch, more crap will be made to work ONLY with DRM. Boil the frog. It's what's for dinner!

Perhaps a small streaming camwhore site could lead to the big time later!
I know I don't want to be the one to deny the next Jenna or Kobi.
Follow that dream, Billy!

Whew! I almost fell to the dark side!
I didn't get to play Operation (the Wacky Doctor Game) or Clue until I was 18. I can see why, now that I am older and wiser.
I could at any moment tried to extract the funny bone from a schoolmate, or hit my sister with a candlestick in the study.
Thank goodness for calming coloring books and play-dough. Well, time for lockdown, night...

Of course, I use BeOS, so I am immune from all attacks except the dreaded, "Lack of Developers" attack. *Shiver*
