What could you possibly get out of a 64 bit OS? Apple generally solders ram on to the lower-end macs, and the higher-end ones can't go beyond 1.5gigs (last I checked), so you're wasting what memory you do have for larger pointers.
The key exchange is not vulnerable if the encryption is secure. Your private key is the only thing that can decrypt your messages; your public key can't.
Gibson's grit is what makes the book work. He didn't know much of anything about the technology he was talking about (Snowcrash has the same problem), but he added backstory, and heaped it with detailed throwaway descriptions. The coffins, the drugs, the sprawl, it all fits because of the context. He hardly explicitely describes the interactions, and you're supposed to just get it anyways. Neil Stephenson is different. He explains everything clearly, and the characters and plot are the main focus rather than the crazy stuff happening in the background, but everything happens slowly and whatever crazy stuff is going on is deeply tied to the plot.
Debugging scripts is an option in the Internet Options control panel. Click on the advanced tab, and look for "Disable script debugging" in the "Browsing" section.

Trademarks must be defended by the holder or they get taken away, copyrights are always in effect until they run out or the work they protect is put in the public domain.
Double-buffering everything isn't always the best option, as photoshop can show you. Certainly it does help (for example, Quake can keep framerates high by drawing into the backbuffer then swap it with the front), but Quake needs triple-buffering to stop the image from "tearing" as the buffers are swapped. Some types of things also bennefit from drawing directly into the front buffer, like overlays (etc.) that Quake also uses, so double buffering that is pretty pointless.
That's not the only way. The list operator could just move the opt-in procedure to an email system (to:list, subject:subsribe) instead of the webpage, which makes more sense than that other option you mentioned.
Me neither. I had the unfortunate experience of buying ~$10 CAD in bulk chocolate covered coffee beans. I think I almost overdosed on caffeine, and to this day I cannot stand the smell of coffee, coffee beans, or really dark, bitter chocolate.
The integration wasn't the problem. Being able to remove it would have been a "feature", but not being able to wasn't the problem either. The problem was (legally):
Microsoft wouldn't release specs allowing other companies to integrate to the same extent.
This is the problem, because almost everyone wants an integrated browser/office suite/etc., and lots of people had a favourite (browser, at least) that wasn't from microsoft, but the two didn't meet.
Robots and Empire tied the robots stories (Caves of steel, etc.) with the Empire stories (Pebble in the Sky, Stars Like Dust, etc.), and then Forward the Foundation, Prelude to Foundation, and the new trilogy tie on the rest of the Foundation stories. It's one big long series, with something like 20 or more books/compendiums.
Pepsi Corp. owns the soft-drink distribution rights for my university's campus. No one is allowed to sell, say, a product from Coke. To get around this a small group of people sells straws, and then give a coke to anyone who buys a straw.
So what if a company would sell, say, a license to use a tivo, and then give purchasers a tivo?
No, god no. Sosumi was a musical sound, ie. something that Apple Records treats as "wares" or "products", and therefore a possible conflict as far as Apple Computers make music could be confused with Apple Records make music, and thus a possible trademark infringement (this being a jab at the record company). The buttheaded astronomer thing was both later and different.

The differences between PE and pro are about the same as the differences between Windows XP home and Windows XP Pro - basically PE is "good enough", and pro is just a little better.
If you want to install PE on a partition, you just load your windows-based PE installation, format the partition, run the installer, intall the bootmanager, then reboot. Full details can be found using google. If you want to install it under linux - http://www.bebits.com/app/2680 has the disk image and the image for the floppy bootloader.
If you want to make a bootable cd, search for bootable be cd at bebits.com (which contains an el-torito cd track image of the above floppy bootloader) and follow the instructions found there.
Take some liquid dish soap (or whatever you have lying around), warm water, and rub it around a bit with your fingers, then rinse and dry. 20 cds/day would be easy.
Maybe using newer versions of windows would be the best option, if hardware support is what you need. From my own experience I have an old creative-based soundcard that nothing (even 2000) would recognize, but xp picked it up right off the bat. Granted, you'd have to tweak a bit to get XP running quickly on older hardware but it won't be as bad as trying to get OSX to run at all on my performa.
Currently gentoo has a kernel-source package (actually, several) but they don't really get much out of portage/ebuild. If Gentoo had USE support within the kernel, and seperated the sources into PPC/x86, driver, etc. parts, it would be almost like a normal gentoo package and almost like what you're looking for.

IANAL, AFAIK they have to have a different name/trademark, and they can't copy the font files. Having the same look is allowed.

Yeah, but it IS a double post.
I do believe the cupboard was 'a rockin', not stationary.

There is a free and slim alternative called Grisoft AVG. It's small, fast, and I recently installed it on a 486 so it's not too demanding.

Some verification is probably a better legal defense than no verification.

Lots of legacy imacs/ibooks don't have firewire either, AFAIK. At least I don't think my mom's 333 imac does.
