"PlatFair" is a nice name, but is it really? I mean, if you bought it, you have it. The only purpose of this is to pirate music you don't own. And people wonder why crackers are hated...
I work for the DoD (McChord AFB, actually) And as a matter of fact, it's sitting on the Mosler safe with the drawer open, in the corner. Never heard about the Furby thing, and the Intel guys are in and out of here all day long!
Where are all the INAL Slashers, running about screaming "prior art, prior art..." like children that have learned a new word??????
I love these "guys". They blather on and on in asinine ways about complicated subjects they have no clue about, then as a disclaimer... "But, I'm not a lawyer...". Well then, stop acting like F. Lee Baily for fucks sake.
Here's the problem at Slash: A bunch of guys in their 40's who have never had sex with a woman (note, I didn't say never had sex, sheep and boys don't count).
And in other news, Taco and Timothy come out public, they are "roommates". Yes, er, "roommates". Local retailers post high earnings on "XtraRibbed Cherry Condoms".
There seems to be this notion that Open Source = = Free Software. This is not strictly so. Many companies produce Open Source software for which they charge for.
It's too bad the Slash Mods have such God damn THIN SKIN, they can't see a reasonable comment when it is not consistent with their own myopic opinion. I'll take the "flamebait" as a badge of honor.
I'm not sure what your point is or how you got there. How is maintaining 100,000 libes of PHP any different than 100,000 lines of any other code? The fact that PHP has very much in common with C syntax should make it even easier. But really, what are you, a VB programmer?
Programmers generally pooh-pooh languages that common folk can understand and use. VB is a very powerful language that many people use to build enterprise class applications, but an idiot can understand and use it as well. The result? "VB SUX". And as an example, a C programmer is essentially a God, and don't even think about reminding people here at Slashdot that Perl has been dead for a few years. But show off something better and easier? Sacrilege.

Except downtown is on the west side of the river and, well, just about everything else is different.

Yea, yeh, AOL sucks. But still, I think AOL has had this "technology" for, ummm... a few years?
If you don't want to do the time, don't do the crime. Copyright theft is unethical. For crying out load, just buy the damn CD.
Try this: Stick a furby up your anal passage and you will have know exactly what Timmy is feeling right now as Michael holds firmly to his ass.
Please. Respect and dignity have zero to do with getting laid.

Man. Reading your post, in all it's fine construction, it is now clear to me why Compaq support generally sucks.

If Amazon chooses to push this patent and takes on some of the big retailers, it will of course end ip in court.
The whole patent insanity will need a few test cases, and I think Amazon will be happy to provide.
Ya know, to each their own. There is NOTHING wrong with "gay sex". But please, use a condom!
Here's the problem at Slash: A bunch of guys in their 40's who have never had sex with a woman (note, I didn't say never had sex, sheep and boys don't count).
In other news, Slashdot eds SHAVE BEARDS and get jobs!!!!
Does that make me Timothy's boy toy?
And in other news, Taco and Timothy come out public, they are "roommates". Yes, er, "roommates". Local retailers post high earnings on "XtraRibbed Cherry Condoms".
Today Sony / Intel / Microsoft / Buttpilot.com came out with new phone / candybar / memo... Blaw blaw blaw....
Slow news day, Taco?

Yes, but also there is high potential for good / lame Microsoft jokes here!
"PHP doesn't have strict typing, so it's harder to maintain."
That's not a language issue, it's a programmer issue. Learn good habbits.
"Problem with VB and php are they were badly designed yet widley used as an all purpose solution."
All words, no substance. Back it up, bro.
"php didn't scale w/o some obtuse compiler"
The Zend compiler is obtuse? Get a grip. GCC is obtuse.
You ramble on and on without making any point. PLEASE HAVE ANOTHER TOKE AND GO BACK TO BED.
So, what you are REALLY saying is that you have not taken the time to learn the language?

I believe Amazon has a patent on that...
