Couldn't this be a precident that affects anti-piracy taskforces, as Bittorrent uses Distributed Hash Tables, which are a form of MD5 Checking if I recollect correctly.
So in order to catch someone seeding something illegal they have to get a warrant to even delve into the DHT stream?
It is fairly clear that this was a fraudulent action. The annoyance of spam advertisements is a trivial issue, however, when someone is raking out large amounts of money by fooling random people into sending it to them, especially if the "scheme" is completely false, or upon further investigation, found to be blatantly misleading, it is and should be prosecuted as fraud.
In a perfect world... yes that would work... in this world no.
#1 the NV30 doesn't do photorealistic.... the NV30 is still a non working prototype.
#2 who is going to pay for this project
#3 all the competing companies are just gonna say ok that sounds like a good idea. I don't feel like competing anymore
#4 If john carmack isn't heading it, i won't buy it.
umm yeah bye
I have done research on conflict diamonds for my debate class. I found that if the DeBeers released all of the diamonds they had in stockpile, that diamonds would be worth less than a grain of sand... Keep this in mind when buying a precious stone...
yeah... the um SMB 3 i believe ran on the NES not SNES... And while I'd like to believe that he invented smooth scrolling graphics i don't believe it.

hrmm....
Having Microsoft at LinuxWorld is like having a KKK booth at an African American rally!
The similarities are remarkable...
firstly, an O/S war is nothing like human opression and should not be compared to such a sensitive issue.
- Both lie, cheat, and steal to promote their messages.
What exactly did Microsoft STEAL? If you are going to say that they stole ideas, that is how everything works in corporate business, and even, life. You are a LINUX man, where did XMMS get it's GUI from?
- Both prey on ignorance, and then fill those gullible enough to listen with lies and FUD.
Microsoft, get the f*** out, until you can actually act with _honest_ integrity and play fair, you are not welcome. It will take some time to gain mine, and many others, trust. (if ever).
#1 please don't use such coarse language. this is a great site and doesn't need someone polluting it with stuff like that.
#2 perhaps Microsoft attending the LINUXWORLD conference is a step in the right direction; maybe they'll learn something. Also, there's nothing to worry about, Microsoft can't BUY LINUX as it is fully protected by the GNU free public license so we're safe for today.
