Microsoft has had a tradition at convincing its customers into buying its products with the ease of use as their selling point.Building a GUI application with Visual Studio or.NET version has been easier than building one in java using say IBM's Visual Age for java. Every release of its OS/Office touted as a tool for a better "user experience". They have been quite successful at using the initial fear of users to migrate to a different platform against open source solutions.
Palladium, for once, cannot be sold under a "ease of use" label with all the restrictions that will be added.
When many a online business models based on paid service having failed primarily because of user reluctance in not wanting to pay for anything once available for free, how easy is it going to be for microsoft to sell its OS that would almost eliminate free content ?
I do not think this word means what you think it means. Anthropomorphism is humans attributing human-like feelings toward non-human thing. E.g., "That tree looks depressed."
From an Amateur Etymologist,
Anthrop= human morphus=shape
I think its ok as long as it stands to describe any human characteristics as in shape or behaviour.
here is the definition from m-w
I hope they catch the guy who wrote it, and feed him just spam for 32 years in his jail cell.
how can they feed him spam ? how about the growth enhancer to see how tall and elastic he can become ?
Besides being REALLY retorical, how about calling the theatre instead ???
its an emergency situation and the bomb is ticking too fast to look into the directory ?
Maybe someone should argue that banning cell phones inside theatres in the post september 11 era is too dangerous ! and can work against the war on terrorism.
What if there was a Bomb inside the theatre and someone wanted to call in to inform the people there ? Wouldnt this law prevent their freedom to communicate - save lives ?
Its silly to ban all cell phones when there are versions with the silent ringer option.
it works like this ,
a link gets posted on slashdot. every filthy animal here - including me , you look at pictures instead of reading the article. Suck up all the bandwidth of the server and all your bandwidth are belong to us.
its a lame way of doing DOS
I don't want faster pr0n... pichunter_com is as good as it gets.
and you can almost be sure that pr0n0s will be there well before others get their fingers on them.
Good luck, Internet v2.0, because Internet v1.0 sure has turned into a pile of crap
stand back and enjoy the all new "faster crap"
Blocking websites would be analogous to blocking any content that go against the "rules & regulations" in a particular country.
If thats their argument , i am sure that anti-piracy groups have been trying hard to shut down warez servers and groups and yet they continue to exist in one form or the other.
As long as they fail to address the core issues like legalizing mp3 sales its going to change nothing. Napster yesterday , listen4ever today.
just applying your analogy wouldnt it be YOUR TV ! YOUR RADIO ! when u see and hear those ads?
dont think property issue is the right analogy either. its simply a harrassment issue . Its something like a teenage guy stalking his college hottie
slash dotted !
I did it ! the very first one to kill the sys-con beast

As long a individual/group having over 50% of the shares of a company decides, shouldnt the deal have been possible ?
Isnt that fair ? How can the court come in and talk about conflict of interest ?
And the same results for www.google.cn
If your information is right, this could be a nice bug I could report to the guys at harvard.

absolutely , irresponsible parents subject their new born babies to violent 'R' rated movies based on adultcontent and themes involving nudity!
and they expect it to grow into somone who would not have his/her cell phones turned on in theatres!
does that apply to babies also ?
I have had enough with the babies crying out all through the show.
