Its been known for about 4-5 months now that MS was supporting AMD's Opteron over Intel in its new OS's. Microsoft had to pick a side, only AMD had a tangeable candidate for incorporation into their new releases. It seems that Intel believes the 64-bit platform is useless to current users. While this may or may not be so right now, down the road the accuracy of the added address space will become etremely important. It will even affect the gaming industry, games that take advantage of the new address space will not be faster, they will be more precise and realistic. (graphics and physics)

Im sure the engineers that will eventually integrate all of this technology will find a solution to the KIA technology steal. Monitoring of life signs and communication analysis (voice print) is all thats required to show the user is who they are supposed to be. Hell throw in some passwords:)
rotflmao! More and more companies seem to be moving in the free-product-and-ass-raping-handling-charges. I dont know about you but I dont like paying to have my ass raped.:)

I still do not understand why people with hotmail accounts dont just block anyone not in their address books.
Think of it this way, with that feature you get to control who gets to talk to you. -bb
Challenge based spam reduction sounds like a great idea. The only problem is that the spam is still going to be sent. Only when the internet comunity goes out and actively shuts down spammers will the problem ever be solved.
Hotmail may now limit their users to 100 messages a day but that wont stop anything. Sounds like a PR gig and another reason for high volume legitimate emailing fools like myself to pay for a "professional" hotmail account. Let alone the fact that most spam comes from open relays that are exploited on a daily basis.
Stop the spammers before they stop you!
If you read into it they call the number to find out if its truely represented as on the sticker. It is then approved by one of the higher ups.
Although I see this idea entertaining I doubt it will become a problem.

Back in the good ol days officers of the law had discression when it came to interpretation of the law. When I was a youngin and was caught blowing up the neighbors mailbox I wasn't made a posterchild for federal anti-blowing-up-stuff ads like today. I was repermanded by a 7 foot tall ogre with a gun and a badge. I stopped blowing up mailboxes reeeeal fast.
China's police figured out that jail and fines arent the way to stop most crime. It's all about the psychological punishment of having your phone ring untill your brain explodes. Hopefully more law enforcement agencies will catch on to the use of psycho-enforcement. (yey I coined another buzzword)

Sounds logical, they should have had copy protection warnings since the beginning. -bb
I never though about that, awesome tip. To bad i have no points to moderate you up :P
That is true. I just breathe deeply for 10 seconds and say "its free" 20 billion times. -bb
