I had that problem - I found my CD Burning settings were set to try to write an MP3 CD, which you can't do for purchased music (nor can you convert them to MP3 files). If you change it (Edit/Preferences/Burning) to Audio CD you should be be able to create a disk OK.
You can then re-encode to MP3 if you like (I want this so I can listen to my music in the car or in the Gym, neither of which are ideal acoustic environments, so I'm not worried about the loss in quality).
Not only COBOL on the mainframes - JCL still fails if you write most of it in lower case, only now it has some capabilities (HFS, for example) which can be case-sensitive, you can't always just use use CAPS ON. Caps Lock is therefore the way to go.
Moore's law is an observation, not something that the industry is forced to follow. You can't just say "we need more efficiency - let's define a new Moore's law".

Anything I think security will dislike I tend to put in my pocket or easily accessible in my hand luggage, so they can search it easily (for me, camera tripod/monopod tends to cause them to search my bag). If you just put the torch in the change tray when you get to the barrier, that may make life easier?
It never went to court. This was an out-of-court settlement, presumably with the UK Arm of the company. Those of us who buy from CD-WOW are hoping the German (.net) and HK (.hk) sites don't get hit with the same restictions.
CD-Wow probably pissed off the BPI because they have a section "Unsigned - as yet" which sells CDs from as-yet-unknown bands, which doesn't make any money for the big labels. [Gratuitous plug - look at 'Bridgefield' in this section - they're friends of mine, and think CD-Wow are great for giving them a chance to get better known].
No, I'm not laughing. Just one of those cultural references, but it's a good example of Douglas Adam's the kind of humour - fast moving to the point that you only catch up with the joke by the time he's through the next one.
(for those for whom it's too early in the morning the joke runs (massively cut down to the point of unfunniness - just go buy the book, CD, DVD, whatever...)
Man proves God doesn't exist because proof denies faith, without faith God is nothing, and the Babel fish is proof that he exists, therefore he doesn't QED. God disappears in a puff of logic. Man says that was easy...
and goes on to prove that Black is white, and promptly gets run over at the next zebra crossing [because zebra crossings have black and white stripes so drivers know where they are, and if black is white then there's no difference between the stripes and drivers won't spot them so Man will get run over].
You just have to be able to do the above in realtime...
phew.
For those still reading, Zebra crossings are one of a range of UK road features with wierd names. Others including Pelican crossing (from PEdestrian LIght CoNtrolled).
Just had a look at BBC Research Central but this doesn't seem to be what was discussed in this story. In particular, they just go off, find what you want and post you a VHS tape, and you have to pay full broadcast rates... Nothing else obvious visible on the BBC website yet, so don't hold your breath.
OK, I have to ask - you do know that a zebra crossing is a pedestrian road crossing marked out with black and white stripes, right? Knowing which, maybe your version is more surreal...
What we need is for someone with the time and spare paper to print off the (publicly available) source of the kernel, and stand outside the courtroom showing it to the public. Then SCO can't claim the public haven't already seen the 'SCO owned' code in question.
That'll teach me to reply to extracts of posts...
Anyway, just goes to show that there are Englishmen who don't follow football. Now, ask me in what sport you'd find Hawk-Eye, and I'd be sorted...

That would truly be a Marathon effort!
Possibly. Me, I thought Discworld...

Never stopped us here on /.
Anyway, we already have speed camera systems that do exactly what you've said, called SPECS
You know I thought they already did that - called the tax on Petrol. Not that that's ever stopped them from trying to tax us all ways at once...
Also known as a 'Pregnant Skateboard', IIRC
