What or who determines the "evilness" or "goodness" of the packet? If a security admin or OS can determine or flag bits as good, what keeps the hacker from spoofing this process by setting the bit to "good"? Does the bit change based on behavior? Or maybe a database with signatures of "bad" bits?

It is actually quite easy to determine the evilness of a packet. If it comes from an IP assigned to the Microsoft corporation, then it is surely an evil packet. Porn packets get an evil bit, only if the porn is considered illegal in Utah.
The biggest difference in playability for this device is supposed to be its support for all Gameboy games, and a BACKLIT screen. With the backligh comes more energy usage. Does anyone know how long the batteries will last for this Gameboy? If it is less than the first one, then you'll have just enough power out of one set to keep you playing until you get on the plane, or while you're waiting for the bus at the stop.

You mean you don't already? This is truely a great age for the exhibitionist.
I only take off my tin foil cap when I'm in the shower because the steam blocks the NSA GPS signal they implanted in all of our heads. PDAs all have this signal emmiter too, why do you think every business owner is required to own one?

This is why you didn't go into the exciting field of AI. You didn't understand it, and needed Artificial Intelligence to figure it out for you.
Besides schools, where were Apple II's embraced by business?
Mind you, I was too busy designing newspapers in Grade 3 on Apple IIe's to consider using VisiCalc on it. And damn AppleWorks was a bad wordprocessor. I guess Word isn't so bad after all, at least I don't have to change floppies to do a spell check.
The best home printer I've used was the HP LJ 500+ which my Dad got for $100 about 7 years ago. It is huge, heavy, and nearly impossible to carry by yourself, but it gets the plain text and simple pictures printed.
I had a fairly good Lexmark Z11, but then it started to freak out when I'd try to print, and it would refuse to acknowledge my colour cartridge that I kept refiling. It just melted down I guess.
Now I have a Lexmark Z33 which works OK so far, but the cartridges hold 1/2 the ink of the Z11's and they cost as MUCH! Sheesh! I refill the black one, but what pisses me off is that it came with 3 plugged nozzels! Cleaning it does not fix it. I'll try desperate measures like dipping the end in boiling water, after I get some more life out of it. It prints fine, but in draft mode there are noticible lines.
Canon seems to be better, but I've seen new ones go down for no reason, like filling up their "waste ink" tank, and having a head unit die. I mean, come one! It is just a "cleaned your cartridge until it is empty and you have to buy more"-tank.
Canons with the clear ink tank, and fill hole in the top are pretty good in my opinion. Remember to refill before the tank is 100% empty to prolong the life of the print head.
My campus the UofRegina charges students 10cents a page. It was free until about 3 years ago when they implemented Novell everywhere and started tracking who was using what. It is really annoying to have to pay for something when it was once covered in tuition.
And my CDs have a key on the back of a CD cover, but no paper informing me of the license document anywhere.
Although the presentation was good, they didn't plan on having so many people show up in Regina, and didn't have enough food ready. And through the whole thing they were selling how great.net was for people programming for cross-platform apps, but never once mentioned that.net doesn't run on Windows 98 if you are the developer.

This is probably their way of insuring the Internet isn't used properly, such as in the download and distribution of Debbie Does Dallas.

Yes, even Canada has had broadband for a decade now.

Yeah,
