There is indeed logging of crashes and even problems. They've been around for a while. You'll find most of it in the event viewer under administrative tools.
IP can also refer to the data on a CD for say, a game or a program like 3DS Max. Now the company that puts the data on the CD needs to have their data "insured" so that everyone doesn't just copy it and they never make any money.
With 2.4gHz equipment you can have a single AP on the 2nd floor of a house on the back side and sit on the front porch and get almost full signal. I missed my wireless while visiting the parents, and did just as I described. Their house is brick on the front.
What about people who warez games? Is that not theft? They steal the money that a company could of had by selling their product. Your definition of property is not geared for the digital age. Just because something is not tangeable does not mean that you should be able to have it for free. People spend many thousands of hours working on something because justly they will be able to make a living from it.
Wouldn't that require spending money? And all these free software movement people got their money from where? Obviously not the free software. Perhaps therein lies the problem.
I guess turning on the firewall is too much work to secure a Windows machine?
I do agree with you about the MP3 trojan idea tho... but it's still valid in that someone could have easily used it. The only difference is that nobody really tried.
When my friends bought systems from Dell, they came with the latest updates from the time of shipping. When I bought a system from them a few years back it was the same way.
It seems to me that you are making statements without actual proof to back them up. Certainly if you buy a system in a store that's been sitting on a shelf for a year it's not going to have the latest updates on it.
If a car skids and causes fatal injuries to drivers and passengers, aren't the car companies responsible (and thus coming up with safer cars or with better anti-skid features)?
Only if the cost of a recall is less than the potential cost of the lawsuits resulting from the malfunction. You also have to take into account if the problem exists on all the cars of that model or if it's a percentage.
Remote Administration also requires you to have a user account on the machine (username and password, password is not optional), and for it to be turned on for that user.
Your numbers are very off. Windows 98 went down in size from Windows 95. It was 90MB after install. Windows XP after install is approximately 800MB, which is Approximately the same size as Windows 2000, an OS you left out of your calculations.
You seem to talk about MMX, but leave out SSE, SSE2 and SSE3. All of which have real world advantages that MMX never really came forth with.
There are some design differences with the P2 and the P3 that you miss as well. I wont get into it, but it starts with the return to smaller chips.
I give you an F in engineering.

almost all LCD's look poor when you have to scale. That being said, most modern video cards (NVidia does it, I can only guess ATI does too) should run in that resolution if your output device supports it. I have a laptop that runs at 1400x1050 and it looks really nice. I play games on it in that res too. It looks very very clean and has a good sharp picture.
XML data for anything complex could be very very large. Models could easily reach a few MB for something not very complex. Serving that much to thousands of people every hour would cost companies a lot of money, and they probably resort to something that makes better use of space.

I think this is true of a lot of companies actually. I'm wary of Sony the most. Their first generation PS1 and PS2 had their share of new hardware problems.
If I'm not mistaken, when Bleem! went to court they were forced to add security checks into their PSX emulator so that it would only play real PSX game discs. They went belly up soon after that.
You don't use WMA, WMV, Real, or QuickTime, but more than half the web does.
Maybe you are not clear about something and that is what is confusing me. Did you fix your kernel for the sound problem or did the distribution developers?

I got 512MB of RAM on my Laptop and it SCREAMS. I can play the shippy at many FPS.
Nobody forced you to pirate. They didn't hold a gun to your held and force you. So no, your point is not valid for piracy Mr AC.
I guess that's why it currently runs just fine on slightly above average hardware right now.... AND IT'S IN DEBUG MODE.

But in this case the car comes with the door (firewall). So what's your point again?

And by everyone you mean the /. crowd and not the real everyone which includes starving kids in Etheopia that have no idea what Microsoft is.
There is and has been a way to create a LiveCD for Windows. It was mentioned a few months back.

The digital music archive is dwarfed by The Mod Archive
I used to listen to mods all the time. They were more dial-up friendly than raw music at the time.
