Goddess on the mountain top
Burning like a silver flame
The summit of beauty and love
And Venus was her name
*She's got it
Yeah, baby, she's got it
I'm your Venus, I'm your fire
What's your desire
Well, I'm your Venus, I'm your fire
What's your desire
Her weapons were her crystal eyes
Making every man a man
Black as the dark night she was
Got what no one else had
(Wow!)
*Repeat
Goddess on the mountain top
Burning like a silver flame
The summit of beauty and love
And Venus was her name
*Repeat
There I was completely wasted, out of work, and down.
All inside its so frustrating its a trip from town to town
Feel as though nobody cares if i live or die
So I might as well begin to put some action in my life.
Breaking the law! Breaking the law!

So much for the golden future. I can't even start
I've had every promise broken. There's anger in my heart.

I predicted a while back that new Napster would go over like new Coke! They just can't convince people to buy vapor that can go poof with a false keystroke, or mouse click, especially since it used to be free.
The only paid download service that will survive is i-tunes by virtue of being first. They can sell the idea that their downloads are clean of viruses and spyware, and cleaner sounding than Kazaa et al, but new Napster will never convince anyone that they are better than original. Kitty will be joining the pets.com sock dog in marketing oblivion soon.
I just cleaned a system of spyware that had something called Spyware Nuker on it. I was the most infected system I had seen in a week! I ran Ad-aware, which detected Spyware Nuker, calling it "Malware." This stuff is multiplying like viruses. Will non techies ever "get it" that they don't want anything advertised by a pop-up or spam?
Didn't we just catch that Osama Bin Laden guy in that spider hole in Iran? I saw it on the news! Now if we could just catch that Saddam Hussein guy. He was in Afnagistan or Pacmanistan, wasn't he?
US corporations are organized crime syndicates. They are really not very different than the mafia. Insurance companies are most like the mafia. You pay protection to them.
Want to have fun with the mods? Make a comment that is offensive to zealots, but funny to sane people, and watch the mods fight it out. The same comment will be modded down to -1 as troll and up to +5 as funny, and down again, probably leveling at 2. The fight can last days! Here's one now.
So, Microshaft is pissed a Hewlett-Packard-Bell for working with Apple? Does that mean that pavilion PCs won't have Windows anymore? I hope so! The hardware will still suck ass, though. I think I'll get a Compaq.
2. Sell the mostly bootleg (but some perfectly genuine)discs you stole from street vendors while playing cop.
While most street vendors are selling counterfeits and bootlegs, that doesn't justify vigilantism. I am sure some of the dealers they will harass are gangstas who will bust a cap in their ass. The playing cop scheme will then abruptly end. As the fake cops lie there bleeding to death, they will have to ask themselves, "Was it worth it? Was it really worth it?"
3. Kazaa is a spyware infested cesspool that will crash your computer. Bearshare is no better.
4. Today's pop music sucks so bad that it isn't worth the time and trouble to download.
Harassment of file traders, not to mention lawsuits against little girls and kindly old grandparents are just a few of the many reasons to boycott the recording industry. Don't buy CDs!
True. Napster was the greatest form of promotion that the recording industry ever had, and they looked a gift horse in the mouth. They didn't even have to give Napster payola like they do with radio. They even made "copy protected" CDs that won't work in a cd-rom drive to keep people from sharing their music on Napster. Now, they have millions boycotting them. Stupid recording industry!

If you have the money, and I'm saving my quarters! Here is a cool monitor and some neat tuner cards, not to mention a computer case that will work in a stereo rack. If they will send me those for free cause I plugged tham, that would be cool! Too bad it doesn't work that way, though.
A lot of chicks flash their tits at bars if the DJ plays Itty Bitty Titties, and show snatch if the DJ plays Pussy Control. They don't get busted. Unless she was caught in the act, those puritan nazis should give it a rest. What will they do next? Arrest anyone who has kids, because they have obviously had sex? Maybe they don't because they still believe in the cabbage patch or the stork, and are unaware of the connection between babies and sex. This kinda reminds me of Cincinnati, Ohio. If you aren't covered in dirt there, you have obviously had a bath or shower, and were therefore naked, so you might be arrested.
Yes, S3, the famous maker of 3D graphics decelerators! That might be alright for people who never play games, but who else would want them? Just get a GeForce!
eMachines have only been around since 1998, and have greatly improved since hitting the scene as a bargain box. Did you know that a lot of HP pavilions have eMachine motherboards? eMachines are no worse than any other name brand, except for Apple and Alienware.
The thing that really looks promising about eMachines is that it is a privately held firm. Unlike publicly traded companies that care only about shareholders, and are screwing them at every opportunity, a privately held firm must answer to its customers. The entire PC industry sucks like American car manufacturers in the 1970s. I have been watching for the computer version of Honda/Toyota/Datsun to come kick ass. Maybe eMachine will be that.
That won't happen. Sharman is secretly in league with them. All that spyware crap in Kazaa is there to rat you out to the RIAA and MPAA. P2P is not what it was in the Napster era. Still, this won't make Kazaa lite go away, it will just make it go back underground, which will make it even cooler.

2015? Bushy won't be in charge any more in January of 2005, unless the next election is rigged like rasslin'.
Enjoy it while it lasts. Netcraft confirms that BSD is dying.

Indeed! That's the Painted Desert in Arizona, not Mars.
Digital fingerprints? That's redundant. Fingers are also called digits.
A beta of a service pack? I just can't wait to install this on my pc!!! /sarcasm

This looks like a big fat trojan horse to me. Don't buy CDs.
Not only that, but Andersen and Pella will have to stop doing business in Sweden and Finland.
