  1. War on Terrorism... on Why Software Piracy is Good for Microsoft · · Score: 1

    In other news, an unidentified source has leaked that Microsoft will distribute it's corporate virus (also referred to as "Microsoft Windows") on certain countries, as retribution for its anti-trust litigation, as well as contributing to America's War on Terrorism.

    The method of distribution includes passing off the virus as being pirated, as it usually costs corporations millions of dollars to install the damage on their machines.

  2. Re:Are they going to share the prize? on RC5-64 Success · · Score: 5, Informative

    Hmmm... as it says here:

    RSA Labs is offering a US$10,000 prize to the group that wins this contest. The distribution of the cash will be as follows:

    $1000 to the winner
    $1000 to the winner's team - this would go to the winner if he wasn't affiliated with a team
    $6000 to a non-profit organization, decided by vote
    $2000 to distributed.net for building the network and supplying the code

    The vote will be decided on through an extension of the statistics engine, with one vote per block per person.


    And to think.. it took a few seconds to find that, and a couple minutes to type your post..
