A few years back somebody filed a class action lawsuit against Toshiba, and got everyone who owned a Toshiba laptop from '99+ a nice settlement of a few hundred dollars. Of course, the software error that was behind the suit would only occur if you had several specific programs running at once, which was a one of a kind instance.
There will always be those who are just don't know about these security hazards with PCs and personal info. Plus, there's Gator, the program that stores personal info such as address and CC#s that is ever so popular these days. Convenience > Security.
Taylor guitars (www.taylorguitars.com) manufactures and sells custom made guitars, and seems to be doing pretty well. They are a bit pricey, so not everybody can afford one. I'm assuming the same will go with the BTO cars.
It does seem crazy, but in reality pretty much every college student is involved with music piracy online...that's just the way things are. If the costs are split across the entire student body, seems like it wouldn't burn too big of a hole in anyone's wallet, if it burns one at all.
I second the recommendation of Calculus: Early Transcendentals, James Stewart. This is the textbook I used in college, and I found it extremely helpful.
...My Pal Mickey feeds the info back into the central computer system, so Doctor Memory can track people's movements through the park in realtime.
Who wants to bet that employees who sell $5 water bottles and balloons will be using the tracking device to follow these customers around? Heck, if they were willing to pay $50 for the doll, they'll be willing to pay $5 for this silly balloon!
Avril looks to have the most mentions on the list. Since her fanbase is mostly teens, looks like there will be some surprised high schoolers once subpoenas are delivered in August!
What's the point of having a disposable digital camera if there's no LCD? Great, you can delete pictures that you THINK turned out bad, but you'll never know for sure until you get your prints/CD.
I hope this desktop manufacturing comes with a warrantee for everything purchased/manufactured in your home. What happens when you order a blender and get a toaster instead?
Although he's the billionaire, at least the blame won't go back to him. After all, he doesn't come up with any of these ideas in the first place, he just buys them off of people.
Well, on behalf of those who shirk on the job (I'm not one of them!), here's another way to get out of doing your work. I have some old bosses who is in the group of shirkers, I'm sure they love receiving spam.:p
This sounds more like a plan by the RIAA to get more Kazaa usernames to check up on. 'Just submit your username to see if it's not already on our list. If it's not, we'll follow-up on it and if we see that you've done a lot of file trading, we'll add yours as well.'
Damn, looks like you really CAN buy anything on eBay. Isn't there some kind of health issue with the Hubble, though? I'm sure that having it out in space for all these years can't make it healthy to be around.
With all of these comments about how there will always be a back door for the spammers to send their mail out, doesn't it seem more feasible to go after the companies who send out the spam?

All this thing needs is wireless internet and it will be the ultimate machine.

All of the existing digital music services believe the college market is valuable.
So that's why the RIAA is going after college students for online music piracy? Makes sense to sue kids in a valuable market.

I found snopes.com very helpful in determining the validity of the 809 area code scam. See, that site isn't worthless after all!

I have the urge to go make a robots.txt file with sensitive info just to mess with hackers. Should be fun, hmm?

Sounds like the superpowered Clapper to me.

Was that a bottle of Diet Coke I saw? Don't take away my reason for living!! Har har :)

Us youngins prefer to spend time on the internet because it's one of the few things we have left that our parents know little about.
I don't see any brakes on that bike. Add that to the list of problems.
What goes around comes around, hmm?

Hmmm...wasn't the Bush Administration involved in the whole Enron deal, too? Fishy, fishy...
