I've been using Mozy.com for back ups. The client is totally unnoticeable after it's installed. It just runs some time each day when you are not using your PC. Handles large files like.pst nicely as well.
They give you 2GB free or unlimited for 5USD/month and bonus space if you refer people:)
It seems that there is a very likely scenario that would provide access to the Democrats' network
The convention center provides WiFi so the attendees can access the Internet / check mail, etc.
They fire up VPNs so they can access their super secret DemocratNet. Hackers hack in on the WiFi and then back out through the VPN.
The best (only) solution I've seen round this are VPNs that disable all local LAN access when active
Wasnt there a story ages back about a baseball park trying to set up for-pay WiFi access and getting mad at some locals who had set up free access that covered the ball park...Guess this would apply there too....
On point 1. - Im not sure that OS Installation is a big sticking point.
All the popular dists now have pretty straight forward installations and automate a lot of the common options - eg/ play nice with windows, offer a standard bundle of apps (eg/ server, workstation)
For me, a big niggle is installation of new applications. All too often this turns in to rpm dependency hell and conflicting libraries.
In windows it's Next, Next, Finish. That's how easy it should be in Linux.
As my non-geek gf said when I got her to try out Linux / Mozilla, "I can't handle this, it wanted me to write code just to install Flash"
If you RTFA, you'll see this isn't a sampling issue. There is no sample of Eminem's song in the advert. A 10-yr old is singing the song. If anything this probably counts as a cover of the original.
Artists dont have to get permission from the copyright holder to release a cover. They DO have to pay them however.

Why shouldnt this hold true, even if the corporation is global?

There should be a toggle that re-renders the page using the IE ActiveX control embedded in the Firefox window. :)
Until someone does that, there is an extension that gives a right click 'open in IE' option

Yahoo IM doesnt have any ads in its interface
I'd gotten firmly entrenched in the laptop mentality
I dont understand the fascination with uptime...As long as it is at least a day, who cares....

... Free advertising for Apple
I found it more reliable and often has stories before /.

Also, calls can get dropped for reasons outside the provider's control - hitting a tunnel, dead batteries, powering off the phone during a call, etc
Surely if the gubmint wants to cut off cell communications in an area they could just tell the carriers to turn off some base stations?
I have difficulty finding even 1 :'''(
Cheaper, no batteries, much higher resolution

I tried a zaltech thing with a huge flower-like heatsink but it wasnt enough by itsself and needed a fan.
I have fat fingers....besides I had already corrected myself
I mean OS X...shouldda hit 'preview'
No it doesnt, it runs linux
...the GTK one looks like it is from Sun's CDE/Motif windowing system circa 1970
Is the sourecode to /. available? Maybe some of us can improve its html output
Its time for a new years resolution anyway!
