That is interesting. According to the declaration of independance if infact the majority of americans decide to share these files that arent theirs then it is technically legal. All we need to do is vote.
Terrorists are like Jewish people in Nazi Germany in these days (dont mean to offend the Jewish). If you screw up just blame it on them. Ill bet it was just some punk kids and the security guy is just too affraid to admit it.
I would just like everyone to know that only a small part of Northeastern University was affected and was clean in a matter of hours. Go Huskies. I know, I know, "TROLL", but I just couldnt help bragging.
I would like to point out a few things. First I think the fact that the system is shipped w/o mandrake installed is good (for lack of better vocab) because it allows you to customize it as much as you want to. Whos to say that HP would know what kind of compliers and servers you want running on your pc. On the flip side why not just install all the services mandrake has to offer. And if there were to be another flip side it would be that mandrake is not really customizable so who cares just install the whole thing. I mean it is obvious that no one reading these posts would buy such a low end computer when they could build one for free. The people that are going to buy it are the same people that couldnt configure linux if their lives depended on it. Second mandrake is a French company (French moderators move on and read the next post) I had mandrake running on my system and I was too lazy to switch to debian eventhough it was my time in the Linux evolutionary order. After recent events I have not used mandrake in about a year and am running soley on debian.
The point is to save the souls of the Micro$oft zombies. "Let freedom ring: Linux"

Well this post is a little old so you probably wont read this but, you are correct that the density of the mesh would severly decrece said issue. However the lightning damage risk will never be prevented. Without divuldging (sp?) into the cahotic flow theories behind electricity I will tell you that some serious testing must be done before I will be willing to attach my 3000 grand to a antenna. This is some rag tag group that is just stringing this equipment up on their roofs with what I am sure is little regard to testing and prevention of a $3000+ accident. It is a good Idea however the saftey of it all may need a little work

Well what if there is a storm and a few of these nodes fall out. Then all the other nodes that hopped off that node will either fall off to or find another node to hop off. Consequently overloading that node and causing the latter to fall off the mesh as well. And so on and so on until the entire network cascades back to MIT. Then getting it back up will be a real pain because you cant all just fire your comps back up. It has to be done in some order so that you dont loose the whole thing again.

I dont think you understand its not stealing. This is a bonified project that MIT is running. Basically anyone close enough with an antenna and a little tech savy can tap in. But you can rest assure that Comcast and Verizon dont like it one bit.

Ah yes the foresight that we have all wanted to convey, and just never had the balls for fear that men in black suits would come knocking...
