if it where a conspiracy they would have started by trying to introduce a law to mandate filtering technology to block something everyone would object to, lets say for example child pornography. then we would need some sort of legal precedent to extend the reach of the laws to not just filter things that should never exist but that which it makes commercial sense to block. then it would be easy to point and say, hey we have a real problem, lets introduce a law to fix it.
If it where a real conspiracy this would not be restricted to australia but happening in far off places like new zeland, france, ireland, the uk, canada.
oh wait... It's almost as if a lot of countries got together in a trade organisation like wipo and all agreed to implement a law within a few months of each other.
There are a few groups such as http://www.air-stream.org.au/ this is a community network in Adelaide. It is legal to setup a wide area network but if you charge for it you are classified as an isp and are hevily regulated.
Yarrr!!!!, time to vote in Pirate Party Australia.
it's better than the Australian sex party who just got electoral approval to run as a federal party.
Unfortunately I have to agree. Who would have thought we would look back and wish we had a minister that knew nothing about his port folio and slowed down progress in the industry.
I have a 64 bit system and I play 32 bit world of goo without any problems once you install the 32 bit libs. On my ubuntu machine is 101mb (installed), if that is a lot of space for you then you have a reasonable complaint.
Still in business, still selling the current generation of hardware, still developing the operating system. It would have been nice for them to continue developing the next generation but the current generation of hardware is still fine.
It Is a selling point, that's why i bought an Asus motherboard with splashtop. Splashtop is a pre bios linux boot loader that allows me to have firefox in 5 seconds after turning on the computer.
Pheonix has announced a bios level hiperviser that will allow you to boot both linux and windows at the same time, you will be able to boot linux and launch firefox while you wait for windows to load and switch between the two with a keyboard shortcut.
There is also the coreboot which is a replacememnt of a bios with the linux kernel that you may be able to replace your bios with.
This ask slashdot seems a little suspicious to me, it does seem to exactly match the feature set of a suite of microsoft products. Anyone worth thair salt as a system administrator that works with microsoft tools should know the features of microsoft office and the add on server components to get the DRM system working in an enterprise.
It sounds suprisingly close to what you would find in a microsoft pamphlet.
Slashdot Mirror
For you in America and Europe yes they did that but not in Australia where it was done in software.

The current time for me is 0:15 on the 2nd so this story is a complete failure for me.
ibm is selling open office under lotus symphony. IBM also have their own java and j2ee stack so they are making money off java.
