Cute trick - claim $1.5 Trillion with no hope of collecting and then you can go around saying that 'illegal sharing' is costing/has cost the industry "over $1.5 Trillion"
If only there was some way we could enclose the whole active device in some form of vacuum assembly made from, say, a stable material like glass? Maybe we could also create a temperature controlled environment for the unit to ensure consistent operation by including perhaps a heater?
If the support team was based at one of our bespoke app companies they probably would go straight for a reboot; I called them a couple of weeks ago about a site where their app was crashing. They had a look and reported back...Probable cause: "Windows Server had not been rebooted for a couple of weeks"
If they've proved that someone can clip a device over a RAM chip, may I suggest epoxy resin or a potting compound. Pot the entire internals, including the ribbon cable to the display and the display board itself to make the electronics much, much more difficult to reach.
I vote that all traders - and lawyers and estate agents for that matter - are sent such a reasonable distance from the planet that the speed of light indeed starts playing into the equation.
So where then did these Asteroids get the water and organic compounds? Is there a universal pick-up point or 'building blocks for life' fly-thru in a far distant corner of somewhere?
Have to disagree to a point. The PS/2 range sold big time in the business/corporate and education worlds (at least in the UK until RM/Viglen got their toe in the door). Built like tanks, yes - but they were very reliable in my experience.
The biggest failing within the PS/2 world was the licencing arrangements for the MCA (microchannel architecture) bus which made it expensive for other manufacturers to use and so few did. MCA was technically great, but the way IBM brought it to market ended up with is getting the EISA bus and the goddam awful VESA Local Bus (VLB), whose cards were so long that they frequently popped out of their connectors if the motherboard was flexed or warped due to heat and poor mounting. I recall that one quick fix for VESA problems was to roll the empty tube of a plastic Bic pen under the back edge of a warping motherboard to stop it drooping too much.

..Thirdly, on train with a laptop with a 3G dongle it was f*king awful-to-impossible to load and eat up my data allowance.
The person or people at Google eho thought this was a good idea should be given a severe ass-kicking, with the video of the event posted on Youtube.

So maybe we'll all be (re)booting our phones on a regular basis - not just those people running WinMo!!
Yeah, if only someone would design, say, a pair of boot that would..oh wait.

Fear not, Microsoft have just announced a patch that updates the encryption/decryption algorithms to add ROT13 and XOR to the process..
Probably not.

You clearly have not seen the drunks in Middlesbrough Town Centre on a Fri..well..Fri-Thurs night - they sure as hell try.

Have you SEEN Boris Johnson?
Damn - I first read that as 'direct rectal projection technology'. The mind (and rectum) boggles!
Maybe it's on $YourFavouriteBurgerRestarant web site under 'Nutritional information' - look for something marked up in 'calories'.

All I remember from the first film was that one of the octets in an IP address was in the 300s. Boy did that ruin an otherwise spot-on movie.
Yep - a blog elsewhere says "75.748.86.91" and "23.75.345.200" were used.
IPV4.5?
Better peripheral vision = Side effect!?

ALl in the name of research, of course.

Long live ROT13!
