I get several emails a day alerting me to the fact that yet another IP address has been banned for brute force attacking a server I have on the internet. For a while I tried to track down where these attacks were coming from and I was amazed at both the diversity of countries of origin and also the sheer number coming from China.
Now just because the attack is coming from an IP address in China doesn't mean all that much. It would be a stretch to conclude the attacks are state sponsored. But I find it odd that for a country with such authoritarian control over 'net usage somebody somewhere in their government isn't either aware of this. I tend to think that if they're not supporting they're at least sanctioning the attacks.
I fully admit that this is anecdotal at best and would love to hear from others who have servers on the 'net that have kept more detailed records.
However, Vista was also a step backwards in that sounds cards with S/PDIF output could no longer simultaneously output digital and analog signals. The Green Button
I was recently at a conference where one of the senior executives of a major national oil company from Saudi Arabia, Aramco, came up to me and said, "Be careful." It was almost a warning. He said, "Be careful, because if biofuels are successful, we will drop the price of oil." from http://www.pbs.org/newshour/bb/economy/jan-june06/ biofuels_4-13.html
"Everyone" hates DRM and it's currently trivial to circumvent so the only reason I can think of to continue pushing it is to condition the public into accepting DRM's inevitability.
The VOD may not contain all the "Special Features" that the DVD will so there's a good chance some movie junkies out there will pay to see the VOD and again then pay again a few months later for the DVD.
However, depending on the VOD price and the delay time from the original release some folks may not bother to see it at the theatre.
So while VOD may be yet another service in the movie timeline there's a good chance it's going to cut into the other services.
I'm not sure I buy this argument. There are plenty of direct to video titles out there selling for roughly the same price as titles that were shown in theaters.
While PNG doesn't support animation it does meet or beat GIF in all other areas (e.g. color depth, alpha/transparency).
"Flash" is a good animation format which is supported by most modern browsers. The actual Flash file format is also "open sourced". More info on this at: http://www.macromedia.com/software/flash/open/faq/ contents.html#2

Anything in excess leads to tragedy.

Except moderation. Take moderation to the extreme!

Cheney was a master at this. First leaking news to the press then citing the report in interviews.

Just before midnight on New Years Eve it hit the ground and "bounced". By the time it hit the ground again it was 2009!

I would have gone with "Dr. Smith".
I've been using this product for several years and am very happy with it (although I haven't been keeping up with the last couple upgrades so YMMV).

Sounds a little Aluminium foil hattish perhaps?"Everyone" hates DRM and it's currently trivial to circumvent so the only reason I can think of to continue pushing it is to condition the public into accepting DRM's inevitability.
More like $100 million.
Rdb can still be purchased as far as I know.

Exactly. I want a "Giant Hamster Ball" Quake/Doom Mod.
The ball would go as fast as you could so you'd probably need some breaking mechanism in order to stop in any reasonable amount of time.

Good points.

You're forgetting about ticket sales.
