  1. Re:Yea for DeCSS but not for iTunes DRM? on DeCSS: Jon Johansen Acquitted In Retrial · · Score: 1

    It won't be any big deal for Apple to make a patch for quicktime to screw up DVD-Jons last effort. It was never Itunes that was cracked, it's the ability to play acc in quicktime that was exploited.

  2. Re:She just might try again... on DeCSS: Jon Johansen Acquitted In Retrial · · Score: 1
    She believes Johansen would have been convicted if the court had believed he intended to use his decryption program for pirate copying.

    I agree. There isn't any evidence on that DVD-Jon used the software for pirate copying, so her statement is totally absurd. It's like trying arrest people who are making crowbars, accusing them of supplying the tools thieves use to brake in.

  3. The Communism vs socialism case on DeCSS: Jon Johansen Acquitted In Retrial · · Score: 1
    .....Just as it's incomprehensible to the average American, who is unable to differentiate concepts like socialism and communism,..

    While today about 25% of the norwegians would vote for the socialist party, and below 1% for the two Communist parties.

    I'll also add that we norweigans are neither capitalists or socialists, but we, as the Swedes, like to call ourselves sociodemocrats.

  4. where's version 10.2.7? on Apple Pulls 10.2.8 Update · · Score: 1

    Okay, I hav just come home from military and read in the mac forums that osx have come in version 10.2.8. Well, I am running v.10.2.6 on my powerbook 667mhz, and software update tells me that my software is up to date. I can't find any standalone updates for 10.2.7. Does this mean that that version also have been pulled?

    you should change the theme pic from the old g4 to the new g5

  6. Re:No Gigabit Ethernet ? on Apple to Announce the Power Mac G5 at WWDC? · · Score: 1

    Well, I have only found 1GB ethernet useful when transferring files from my PB to the powerPC's at my school, directly connecting them to each other with a cat5 cable. It's way faster than firewire (target or IP o/fw.)
