Well, any half wit (l)use would create a shell script in thier directory, then use/bin/bash to execute it. They could create a file called script.sh, that only says "gaim" in it, nothing more, then execute this.
/bin/sh/home/luser/script.sh
br> This will run gaim. not sure it it works every time, but it HAS worked for me in the past.
Not too sure about the games part, I would assume if there are quite a few, developers will code for this box, just as they do for macs. Now the Printer and scanner thing can be centralized, just as microsoft will have you go online and look at their database if windows does not detect the hardware, I assume this box will have a centreal driver database, and will download hacked together drivers for printers/scanners/digital cameras. If you make enough of them, the hardware manufactureres will work with you.
This was the benifit of a pager. You did not need ID to buy one. Just bogus info. And since the older pagers were passive devices, there was no way of tracking them.
We ( ram gear manufacturing ram-gear.com)shipped a gear from alice texas, to illinois. The first part was shipped standard ground, they lost it, we sent one 2nd day air, they lost it, so after the third part ( not one we stocked, 3 24 hour days in one week) The part went through. Their excuse was the proximity to christmas ( first week of december). They would not pay us for the second lost part, as they said we had 2 claims in 3 months ( it was actually 3 days.) Costumer was pissed, so we started using FedEX, costs a little more, but its cheaper in the long run.
Tony's Vineyard Restaurant in Henderson, Waitakere, found out the hard
way that out of date menus are misrepresntations substantial enough to
attract the attention of the Commerce Commission.
The restaurant operator pleaded guilty on Thursday in the
Waitakere District Court to breaching the Fair Trading Act in relation
to website promotion of its menu and prices and was fined $3,000 plus
$260 in court costs.
According to the commission, the restaurant's website made
various representations about the availability and price of certain
meals on the menu over a six month period dating from a customer
complaint.
The commission said that many of the meals were not actually
available for order at the restaurant, and others were not available at
the listed price. In some circumstances, the website price varied
between 17 and 36 per cent cheaper than the in-house menu.
The complaining customer had notified both the restaurant
and the Restaurant Association of New Zealand that the website menu was
out of date and misleading, but the operator, despite knowing about the
issue, had done nothing to correct the website.

What is software? is it not a set of instructions that tell computer hardware what to do? so without this "data", "music", or whatever the hell you want to call it besides software, the iPod is just a hard drive, some hardware, firmware, and an audio amplifier ( falls under hardware). Now, where is this software that drives the firmware inside the Ipod? guess you load a magical music file, and then some compiled asm code to read the magic music file.
Nice answer AC. So, all that space on your hard drive that iTunes.exe occupies is just data right?
Hand your "data" to the phil harmonic, and ask them to play it, because it IS music after all. Might want to mention it is encrpyted, by software, stored, by software, and retrieved by software/firmware, but it is not software.
5. A method for protecting software from unauthorised use, as claimed in claim 4, wherein further comprising the steps of:
storing an encrypted identity of a user in said processing apparatus; and if all of said protected programs stored in said processing apparatus has a valid user identity which being consistent with the decryption result of said stored encrypted identity, permitting use of said protected programs and not permitting if otherwise.
He is asking why, not just going by what he has heard from every person.
There is a story of a woman that made bannana nut bread in a 4x6" pan. When asked why she did it, she said because her mother did it. Well, later her daughter started the same habit, one day her daughter taught her frind her recipe, but the friend did not have a 4x6" pan, the girl asked her grandmother how to modify the recipe for a non 4x6" pan, the grand mother said " use the same recipe, the pan does not matter", the girls asked " then why have we always used a 4x6" pan?" The grand mother replied "I used one because my oven was only 6" wide."
The dimensions were pulled out of the air, but its gets the point out there. Some people just go with the flow because everyone else does it, instead of asking what the resoning is behind it.
Now aftr hearing all this bullshit, why do you show ID to board a plane? they are already searching you for weapons. If the police want this to track people, why not check everyone entering/exiting an airport/state line?
If he writes you a citation, it MUST have the "broken law" on it, if not, the judge will throw it out.
An officer can pull you over for just about anything, I have been pulled over for low tire pressure( they will check it, and also check tire tread) they can be pricks if they want.
Well, you MUST have a liscense to operate a motor vehicle, You are NOT required to maintain a liscense to ride on a plane as a passenger. Next time they ask, ask for the Captians liscense info in exchange for your info.
Your address is required for citation notice mailing, and if you are a no show on your court date, they will use it in issuing a warrent for your arrest.

If they claim it was a trust fund for the Red Cross, then there is an easy solution, give ALL of the money to the Red Cross.

They copied the F@#$#$ headphones. I wonder if it comes with a shuffle manuel, or did they have to make that themselves?

SBC is Southwestern Bell Communications.
The menu is on the site, so he did look at the menu before ordering.

And they are MP4 files, not MP3.

Guess I need to upgrade from 1.0.
Well, if it relates to an electronic device, it is either software, firmware, or hardware.
What catagory does Music fall under?
In this case, the software would be the MP4 file you downloaded from iTunes, and the ipod is decrypting said software.
What about this?

Reminds me of that movie Mars Attacks (1996) Just after the aliens destroy congress, the President says
"I want the people to know that they still have 2 out of 3 branches of the government working for them, and that ain't bad."
