I don't think it's clicked into their heads yet that a large portion of these mp3 thieves only download them because CDs are just to damn expensive.
I have to pay $15-20 CAN for a CD these days. If they dropped that price by $5-7, I would be much more likely to purchase the CD instead of just looking on the back of it to memorize the song lists to download.
Everyone is ranting about if you have physical access you can just rip out the hdd and get whatever is on it.

With something like this, I can walk in, toss in the CD, and install backdoors at will.

If you think the whole idea is sketchy.. why not just go to a real school and not a virtual one.
I recommend they hire an ex-owned of an Oil Company!

That way we'll be damn sure they know the ins and outs of network security, right Georgie?

Props to Phillips on this one.
Are Programmers Engineers?
No, programmers are programmers.
Why would they do this? I don't see the reason in not letting people overclock their processors
It's like selling some kid a bike and telling him he can't peddle faster than 15km/hr
ability 'to download a full-length DVD movie in less than five seconds' How is that possible if your hard drive cannot write data at such a speed?

Fuck that shit! I bet you a god damn bag of money that those cocksucking lawyers haven't bought half has many CDs as the real fans have.
