You could probably hire mexicans to count them cheaper than you could buy a scale capable of weighing a mountain of pennies. Along with that massive scale you would also need front end loaders and cranes, and union workers. Ideally, you could get the mexicans to feed them into those coinstar machines, though capacity may be an issue.
To play devil's advocate...
They (presumably) get to choose what they want during purchase and not pay for what they don't want.
Now, if you are not penalized for making the wrong choice, ie. upgrades to the next up version cost the difference between the two, or very close, then it would really be a good thing. Maybe.
True. I almost caught myself saying "Can't we just legislate morality?" but thats an even worse road to go down.
Is it possible to say "You can invest in us, but we retain control over our business practices."
I think what Mr. Franklin meant by temporary security is that you are more secure from, for instance, the terrorists, but are now open to attack by your government. This makes your overll security temporary.
Who says I don't already run linux where I can? It means I could finally get rid of the one windows installation I have, because I actually *need* Photoshop CS2.
or perhaps to run purchased OSX on cheap commodity hardware? I could save $200 for OSX, but as a poor student, buying a new computer just because I want OSX is a little out of reach.
1. Webpage indexing is opt out. You don't have to submit jack.
2. Okay?
3. Thats trademarks. All you lose by not suing, is that the statute of limitations may run out. The clock typically starts running after the date of last infringment.
I can't even catch my false positives because I have about 9000 spam messages in the folder currently. There should be an "I'm not sure" category that we can check and reduce false positives/negatives.
If you honsetly didn't meant to fuck things up, damages could at best be paying any overage chages they generated, which, were I fuddruckers, I would definatly pay just for the show of goodwill and a general "sorry."

Except it practically is, in that you probably weren't going to use all of it, and you're not paying anything extra for the additional transfer.
Not legal, but the companies look the other way because they recognize the advertising value.
But that flies in the face of... the law... of... conservation of pennies!

because eventually you'll pay off the original amount, and by god you'll keep paying...
That would be like giving flood insurance to people living on large rivers that like to overflow their banks. (ie. mississippi)
haha. So did I!

Except the big telcos own the lines... where are the little guys going to get lines?

True. But wouldn't it be nice if there was a little shift from caring solely about shareholder profits and a little ethics got thrown in?

not to mention when your SSN is both magnetically encoded AND boldly emblazoned on the front of the card as a barcode.
You could probably give out free mugs if they will swipe their student ID
He asks you the passphrase, then cuts off one of her fingers...
