I pay £5 per month for a static IP address. That means I'm not in the dynamic IP pool that is blacklisted by a lot of people. Surely that is the same thing?
The first question is easy. They are legitimate mass emails if they are only sent to people who ask to receive them. All the people you mention fall into that category, so they are all legitimate.
In Britain, the breathalysers decide whether or not you get taken to the police station.
When you arrive at the police station, they take a blood sample. They test half of it, and that decides whether or not you get convicted. You get the other half and can arrange for your own tests on it.
I prefer a warranty for a fixed number of years. A lifetime warranty is useless because when the item breaks, it has reached the end of its life, and is therefore no longer covered under warranty.
And AMD won't be adding 2% onto their prices, so they will be at an advantage.
Actually, I don't think Intel will add it onto their chip prices. If they can get away with charging an extra 2%, they would have done it regardless of any fines they have to pay. As they now face a more competitive AMD, they will likely have to drop prices.
Yes it does, because if they do have a valid certificate for your bank, and reports elsewhere have shown that there are CAs that will sell them to you, then being in control of the Wireless Access Point makes it much easier to redirect you to their site and serve up the fake certificate.
If you buy back stock, you no longer have to pay dividends to those shareholders. If you merge two shares together, you have to pay double the dividend per share that you did previously.
Stock mergers generally happen when the share price looks like it is going below $1 per share which means it gets de-listed.
But their shareholders still have the money. The difference is that it is in their bank account now where they can do what they want with it, rather than in Microsoft's bank account earning a small amount of interest.
When shareholders buy Microsoft shares, they want a return on a software development business, not interest on a bank deposit account. If they wanted deposit interest, they would put the money in a deposit account themselves and have the benefit of FDIC insurance.
Inflation causes interest rates to go up. A deflationary economy such as Japan has very low interest rates, 0.1% at the moment, and they have been at around that level for a long time now.
However, if you stuff some Yen bills under the mattress, you will still get a resonable return on them as they will buy you more goods now than they did last year.
They are not on the list of major shareholders - http://finance.yahoo.com/q/mh?s=AAPL , they might own something, but certainly not anything significant.
Microsoft's market capitalisation is $177bn, Apples is $111bn, so there is almost as much chance of Apple buying Microsoft as there is of Microsoft buying Apple.
Also, Apple has slightly more cash in the bank than Microsoft - $24.49bn vs $23.66bn.

O2's definition of "unlimited" for cellphone plans is 300MB per month. They are the iPhone network in the UK.

I think you'll find most ISPs already do this, and the zombies self-limit the spam they send out to get round this.
And if the website causes them to buy Sony or HP in protest, then it has completely failed.
I guess the police surgeon (a qualified doctor) does it.

You would solve that problem by requiring people to blow in 100ml or whatever of air before it starts taking readings, or by measuring CO2 levels.
But if I could make an exact copy of your car at the press of a button, you would still be able to drive your car.

In Britain at least, everyone calls them memory sticks, even though they are completely different to the proprietary flash cards made by Sony.
Or even better, a Micro SD reader and card. 16GB on something smaller than a finger nail is very nice.
Linux / Apache according to netcraft.

Britain alone needs around £3 trillion to sort out its banking system. This is just loose change.

They are less likely to be using Yahoo for their email than the general population.
Well presumably Skype got something in return that made it worth their while doing this?
Why would you want to do that? British people might think it is in some way related to a chain of computer shops owned by Dixons Store Group.
