A (c) PanIP line in the code might be a giveaway. Or if the script just happened to be called something that one of their programs was. Alternatively you could just look up the patent (if there is one) instead.
Here in the U.K. broadband is only just starting to become mainstream. However prices are at a competitive level because as well as the (once government now privatised) telephone network there are many cable operators too. Like Australia they rent space from BT for phone lines - but use their own networks for broadband.
"While don't your company and the other smaller pool together to fight back?" - does he actually have details of the other companies? If you read his post you'll find he wants to resolve it without the cost of a court case - reduced or otherwise. PanIP's underhand tactics rely on that fact. However we don't know if he's used any of PanIP's code in his website. For all we know the form he uses could be under their copyright.
Doesn't legally emulating a platform mean you have to have access to the ROMs (ie own the thing you're emulating) - eliminating the need to actually emulate it when you can get a far better experience from actually using it?
If you've ever looked at your Freaks list, Foes list and Friends list you'll find people aren't as understanding once they get on the net as you think!
Card systems on the continent are far more secure than here in the U.K. Here you only need (for ordering over the phone and web) the number and expiry date. Although some cards do have something similar to a pin you sometimes have to enter too.
Yes it does seem rather TARDIS-like. You've got to remember that components are shrinking all the time though. It's probably possible to fit them all in - but I wonder what the ventilation is like once you do.
How do Internet radio stations go about paying royalties to the artist for each piece of music they play? Listening to BBC Radio 4 over the web you often hear they can't broadcast the program because they haven't secured the rights to broadcast it over the web. Is this ever a problem for you?

Enigma
·
· Score: 2
I've found most of the article written/ TV about/ books about Enigma seem to concentrate on telling the story and gloss over the details of how they actually cracked the code. It's good to see a film for once that doesn't shy away from introducing the subject of mathematics to its audience.
A friend of mine recently wanted one of my clicky keyboards - before he came round I thought I'd give it a clean. I was really surprised by how much dirt came of. Keyboards on the surface can look clean but when you open them up and look inside there's loads of dust and bits of things that fall between the keys. If anyone remembers the HHTGTG trilogy there was this paragraph in the second book (The Restaurant at the End of the Universe) :
All this lay in the planet's remote past. It was, however, a descendant of one of these eccentric poets who invented the spurious tales of impending doom which enabled the people of Golgafrincham to rid themselves of an entire useless third of their population. The other two-thirds stayed firmly at home and
lived full, rich and happy lives until they were all suddenly wiped out by a virulent disease contracted from a dirty
telephone.
Perhaps the same moral could be written about people who clean keyboards too!
You wouldn't notice you'd be either exploding or the house would be collapsing on you from the resultant earthquake!:o) Most of science isn't plausible when you think about it anyway! Cutting-edge science even more so.
According to what I heard the original names were truth and beauty as opposed to top & bottom. As to the challenge if you want you can try it with the original six - it's probably a little harder to get less common words like truth and beauty in than top and bottom.
Question: Can you get the six names of quarks: up, down, top, bottom, strange and charmed into one sentence without it being nonsensical and without being clever like writing, "There are six types of quark: up, down, bottom, strange and charmed."?
Then you reach the end of the article and they write "The small size of strangelets means the blast is only big enough to have a very localised effect and humans are unlikely to be harmed." to reassure people and stop them panicking!
"Or is the whole idea fundamentally flawed?" - well the flaw is that it ends up being expensive to run because of bulb replacement.
"why aren't the big LCD companies developing this kind of product?" - prehaps they feel the market's too small to warrant the investment in researching a new product.
Just because I run a gaming site doesn't mean I therefore automatically have knowledge of all games ever written! Have a thought as to what you're writing before you post it next time.

Sounds like yet another loophole unscrupulous crackers could exploit.

They don't until somebody uses their finger to write "Also available in white" in the dirt on the back.

"there is no way i will stalk you or post personal info about you online." - oh so posting my name in your journal isn't doing that then?
Google offer a similar system wherby advertisers buy adverts on certain keywords - not the same as a keyword system but still very similar.
It's almost gone now - took 30 seconds before I got a reply - probably quicker for everyone to just got to the cached page instead.
