Thanks for one of the few postings on this subject that makes any sense. It's not like Apple has some kind of draconian restrictions on how you can use their music; almost any typical user wouldn't notice them. They just don't want to see iTunes music ending up on Kazaa. If Apple didn't use any DRM the iTMS wouldn't exist.
I had a girl today that didn't realize that she needed to plug her patch cable into the wall to get on the network. Somehow I don't see her using Linux anytime soon.
I run the ResNet program for San Diego State. We did the same thing and it has worked pretty well. The update hosed one girl's system, but we are dealing with it. Out of 3000 people, I guess 1 isn't so bad...
Ok, this may be a stupid question, but has anybody thought of what happens to the whole "outsource to India" trend when India dukes it out with Pakistan again? Doesn't this scare companies away from making such a significant investment there?
2 old roommates. Two guys, just like the pervs described in the article. They would get on AOL and search for user profiles that contained words like "drink" or "party". Then they would send instant messages to these girls (aka "AOL sluts") for 6 hours/day. Once they started talking to a girl, they'd start sending nude pics of themselves to these girls, and sure enough, the girls would come over within a few days. We're talking 2-3 girls per week, n/k. It all came to a halt a while ago when one of them caught a nasty case of the clap. Of course he got it from an AOL hookup and found out he had it by giving it to a different AOL hookup. Without AOL, these guys would have no social life. Anyone else know people like this?

Do the French still restrict 802.11 usage?
