They do all sorts of illegal shit there. Pandora's Cube is really blatant all around kind of nutty. They openly sell pirate/taiwanese imports of CDs and DVDs from Japan (and elsewhere)... rent copies of VHS tapes, etc. They even will have LAN parties and game competition in the store, to which they'll invite friends of staff... they'll play with the stock in the store, copy movies and games, etc.
I guess that makes sense if it's based on WinCE. But that sounds really retarded. You'd have to get apps and certificates signed by their private key before deploying.
the REASON the device is locked down is because they're going to market it to 100s of millions of people and that's one big fat cash cow for whoever gets to charge 10 cents for whatever gets bundled per delivered unit.
If they leave it unlocked, then they can't sell "upgrades" to the newly created captive market later (for when they've saved up the money).
For not much more money, you can get the exact same configuration without the BIOS/OS crypto-handshake. And that configuration would probably have a few extra nice things, like digital I/O pins on the mainboard, or an I2C bus, or something fun like that.
More information, examples: http://hiro-tan.org/~ekoontz/IsDying/ NetCraft lists web server details for various sites you ask it about on a periodic basis. It keeps statistics about operating system, web server version, etc.
It is often used as a reference when people argue about Apache vs. IIS, Solaris vs. Linux vs. Windows on server superiority issues.
Some troll turned that into "evidence" that the *BSDs were on their way out. It has been copied and memed and mimic'd ever since.
Katmai and Coppermine PIIIs are superior to the PII and are mostly backwards compatible electrically (but not socket-wise). Besides, the PII slot sucked, no one wants to use it now. The earlier PIIIs are essentially the same CPU with an onboard cache, taking less power, while running a good deal faster. Oh, and they have more convienent packages, perfect for embedded systems and whatnot.
The PII doesn't have a market except for replacing existing parts in systems that were, at the time, cutting edge.
I love how everything is centered, and there's ads on top of each page of the 7 page review. So the game is perfect, aside from your unrealistic desires for ultra-realistic (but pointless) physics and water effects.
Yawn.
Your music has guts though (viola? double bass?). Keep it up.

So it's a reference. Thanks for throwing us a bone. Fuckers.
Or how about sometimes the movies are interesting?

that was probably a blanket spam (but you knew that).
There'd be no way they'd actually do it if they knew what GNOME was or how it worked.
how much was it and who was your reseller?
So put it in something (search for mini-itx or pc-104 enclosures).
Come on, man! If you don't want it locked down, you can't expect the whole thing delivered to you on a plate... there's no market there.

Search for "geode embedded" in google. OH LOOK.
All the rental DVDs/VHSs casettes are copies. I saw the duplicator in the stock room.
And they pretty much only sell Taiwanese bootlegs of stuff.
They must have been making a killing overall. I wonder what they report on their taxes...
Better off going to Starland in Annandale. Priced more favorably, especially if you've got something to sell them.

Care to inform anyone else about AMD's intent today?
What are you, on the fucking development team?
Your comments remind me of a Penny Arcade cartoon.
That's not a good thing.

Skull and Bones is just he-man make-believe time for rich, sheltered ivy-leaguers.
That and it helps you network... like golf.
That sounds about 50,000 times less likely than space debris that _just_ grazes the post (or hits the water behind; not touching the lamp-post)
the shiny red spot
is in the before and
after pictures
but the artifact
is not - perhaps the camera
has a bad pixel
I doubt Taco does either.

huggles for dual sparcstation 20! Her SBUS is soo kyoot...
And did it come with the side-loading CD-ROM?
Dual PPro 200, and a dual PII Xeon.
I loves them both, but I can't keep 'em on, it gets too hot in here. -_-
Suck.
