Just read access, and you have to use your own ISP's server for outbound SMTP?
Interesting point. I use a local cable company called COX for my high speed access and they prevent any external SMTP access.
I think that more local ISP's should restrict email to only be sent through their mail servers. This would be a step in the right direction to limiting SPAM.

... any support to them is punishable by the PATRIOT act...
Seeing as how the events in Star Wars happened a 'Long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away...". These events obviously pre-date the Patriot act.
Steve Jobs--who was heavily influenced by the counterculture attitudes of the late 1960s and early '70s--has been said to have admitted that the computer company was named Apple in partial tribute to the Beatles.
From what I understand, the product will not be allowed to be called a CD if it includes DRM.
Also, what ever happened to the 'fair use' clause that legally allows me to make a copy of my CD? Which brings me to a reasonable question. If you circumvent DRM to make a legal copy of music then are you really in violation of the DMCA because you have already been given the rights to make the copy. Am I correct in assuming that the RIAA is not complying with that law?
Luckily, there isn't too much new music that I enjoy so I only purchase maybe 1 CD a month and always return CD's that are copy protected because they usually won't play in my computer or car stereo.
>Well, they don't have control
Not ENTIRELY true. While Jackson/Sony do own the publishing rights to the Beatles catalog (Northern Songs Ltd), The Beatles (Apple Corps and I believe EMI) still retain the recorded rights. Which translates to Apple Corps getting money for every Beatles item (albums, authorized merchandise,...)
So, Apple Computers would still indeed need to make friendly with Apple Corps (and NOT Jackson) to sell the music catalog.
Isn't frames actually part of the HTML specification? If so, then it would seem like they should try to have the HTML specifications modified to remove frames. I don't see how a concept based on what can be done with HTML can be covered under copywrite law!

There actually is a modification to terminal services server that will allow the host computer to operate while a remote machine is logged in.
Tweeter usually has the Hughes model in stock. I'd really like to see Sony release a DirecTivo unit though!
