Seems they have reached Market Saturation in the US and now have to move out of the US..
I am sure they could collect more money if they have collected any at all.. But that would cost $$ which they do not have not to mention this could still flop in their face yet so they need to be a bit careful on the ammount of money they spend in these affairs.. But i can see the MS's "Investments" are more or less to pay lawyer fees for this to happen:)
Keep this out of the hands of MS.. I am sure they will chase this "Technology" to the ends of the earth:) They best have all sorts of patents and copyrights to hold MS back:)
Shout it from the Roof tops that Its the worst Laptop you have ever seen... Make comments till your blue in the face about how slow it is for being a 9200! Do everything you can to get Review sites to look over the fact its Just called a 9200 but has a 9000 series chip in it.. Make it look unattractive as a purchase option.. Do everything you can... They only way to prevent Marketing "Guru's" from misleading the public is to Make thier misleading marketing practices fall flat on its face. This is the only way Marketers will listen... They only use Tried tested and True Methods to sell thier products... Its Rare they ever venture out on a new limb.. and if its a bad limb... Break it off and shove it down their throat untill it has a negitive impact on their paychecks. This is the only way they will listen.... Taking them to court only Drives up the costs of products and they usually slink away somewhat unscathed anyway.
Where is the Google news on this conversation? I am sure it would include something similar to.
"Untill your claims are substantiated with some sort of court ruling we view your IP infringement claims in the realm of fiction and will not do anything but a minimal brief action-plan to take if your fiction ever enters the realm of reality but untill then PFO"
I am sure with the ammount of google talk in the news a statement that puts SCO back in thier place untill legal proceedings produce either rotten eggs or fruit for SCO would be highly benifical to the linux world and would make a significant check and balance to SCO over inflated stock price.
This war Will be lost reguardless. Its fairly easy to utilize non-standard protcols for VOIP to use for crimes if you really want to and skip over VOIP totally.. With the availability of Wireless internet access and powerful programmable PDA's one can create a private Voice network that is "Untapable" as far as current methods go.
The massive bulk of email out there stems from about 20 domains.. They have the power to do pretty much anything they want all they need to do it team up to support a new standard. Then everyone would follow suit.
Umm... Class C?!?! Are you talking about a/24 by any chance? Or are you still using a Super fast P60? You know they have a floating point math bug in most of them.. I just thought I would tell you since you seem to be Completely behind the times.. CDIR has been in common usage for over 10 years now.
If you Just resolve some domains and sub domains you can get alot of em and speed up your customers connections too... Just beaware of what is underlying what your "Breaking"..
I doubt anyone you want to find anything in the ads*.doubleclick.com domain:)
They need a good Marketing group.. They could achive what MS tried to do with the Xbox and come out ahead of the game... Everything you mentioned eg "incompatibilities with video cards, incompatibilities with CPU models, and even incompatibilities with optical drives that PC games tend to have" Could be fixed in this "console platform" so all those issues are resolved.
That could be a boost for the linux gaming community... Someone just needs to build a gaming based distro with great libs that make it look inviting to Gaming manufatures and suddenly we could see a good growth spurt in that market as the code base for the games will be out there for linux.. Just getting it to work with your hardware is the only thing left.
Email doesn't really need to be human readable to filter for spam.. One can enforce alot of forced rules on a email to circumvent spammers typo's and additional spaces ect.. Also sending notices to email senders that their email was suspected spam and held and offer a captcha for verification or some other process to validating a email so Important messages will be unlikely unread.
There are a pelthora of ways to start filtering spam including a risk assesment of SMTP servers to help lower the load on filtering hardware. Abnormal increases in traffic can cause a increase in a servers risk assesment to cause heavier filtering of incomming messages.
We need a few people to do just as Tainted studies to show a massive increase of P2P music sharing get get some papers to pick up on it to counter foolish studies liek this that don't show the real whole picture. Or show the music sharing has been moved off P2P and back to massive FTP or IRC mediums that the RIAA isn't watching:)

It would have been nice to see the DOJ force MS to release the source of OS's that MS decided to discontinue support.. Atleast the parts of code that weren't carried over to their next OS release to force MS to come up with actual innovation and give everyone an idea of how much code is reused from OS to OS release.
The comment was made that implies that all Major name companies don't subscribe to the "Slave Labour" that the no-name brands do..
In todays market Everyone is cutting what ever corners they can to get that All Valued stock price up as high as possible.. Keeping away fron these no-names will not stop this as I am sure alto of the major bands will also pay the lowest ammount possible to get their DVD players aswell.. (They might pay.05$ a day more.. but does that make a diffrence?)
That has to be the reason why they don't want to show the code... They think they finally have a workable business model to go on... Make everyone pay for a Licence for software that is everywhere allready... If they were to tip thier hand and thier claims were valid Linux would change and then they lose thier new business model.
It is beyond me why this hasn't been brought up in court... It would for the most part get the SCO headlines to stop.
They can't make it illegal! There is nothing wrong with it at all... No ammount of corprate pressure would be able to cause the courts Make it so. the GPL will stand as it allways has..
I Hate to see comments like this.. Its part of the Doomsday outlook... These comments have no place being made.. Just as much as the people that said Planes will fall from the sky when we roll over to 2000...
You Mean Real Trusted Computing or MS's version?... The problem is there is no actual standard other than We are trying hard from the industries largest companies that are failing miserbly in areas reguarding security.
The problem with "Trusted Computing" is that inorder to come up with a standard and have it enforced, the standard would be rejected by most software companies because it would require them to open up the code and development process to outsiders to inspect for compliance with the standard.
When the dollar price is dropping so rapidly on Decent enough hardware for a file server it seems that a OPen Source Linux based solution would be great for this type of idea...
Everything to do this effectivly is out there.. It just needs a bit of glue and a Simple distro could comprised with installation to take care of the slimming down to needed packages and a bit of scripting and its more or less done..
This needs to be brought to to the attention of of everyone wanting to break DNS by "Best guess(Highest Paid for)" resolving typo domain names ect... This may not refect the high percentage of DNS Traffic being for the WWW but it goes to show that the WWW isn't the end all be all of the Internet.
Out of the 101 ways.. There are about 3-5 that are applicable and would help... The rest are trash ideas that a grade 3 class could have come up with as they are either unaplicable or so bad they will not work.. For the most part it It should be labeled 101 Bandaids we can help to put on the internet.. And just like bandaids They are nothing more than a temporary fix and don't actually cure the Cause of "The Cut/Wound".. FOr the most part most of them are bad enough its like putting a bandaid on a broken leg.. Will it help? No!
Sorry if it seems to be a bit of a troll but his list of 101 things we can do to help fix the internet are 101 solutions to 3 or 4 problems. What would you do if you took your car to a mechanic beacuse It wasn't starting properly and he gave you a list of 23 things you can do to help it start better without lifting a wrench to fix whats wrong with your car.

Come on! Your Just gonna accept Marketing Propaganda? Next thing You will allow the to Round their numbers up...
600,000 Gigs is close to 1,000,000 so we will just call it 1 Terabyte cause 600,000 is closer to 1,000,000 than it is to 0
But when to tack on Bytes (Which is Base 8) It changes the meaning totally!
Mega is 10 but its describing Bytes which is base 8 for the Correct math mega is 10 so 2^10 is 1024
You are Very Very Wrong!!
If they were gonna do 5 then they would do 6 as its 2 devices per IDE chain :)
Hey!!! 1 Terabyte is not 1,000,000 Megabytes!!!!
there are 1024 Megabytes in a Gigabyte and 1024 Gigabytes in a Terabyte!!
So 1,048,576 Megabytes/1.5 megabytes per second...
So your off 8.9 Hours...
Seems they have reached Market Saturation in the US and now have to move out of the US..

Didn't some Big wig from the ATF come over to the RIAA? Wonder who came up with this idea?
