    Why bother in the US if its cheaper elsewhere?

    In case you didn't know most "name brand" laptops like Dell, HP, and even Apple are actually manufactured by OEM's in Taiwan, Mainland China, and Korea. No Shit. Wait I thought they were made by rosie the riveter here in the good ole USA.

  3. Kyoto blows on Kyoto Treaty to Enter Into Force · · Score: 2, Informative

    It would have ravaged companies and our economy would be worse off if it was ratified. I'm glad it wasn't.

    Did everyone responding to this miss the point?

    The post is talking about things that come packaged in most distros.

  12. Re:pathetic on Night Goggles Capture Spider-Man Movie Bootlegger · · Score: 1

    Which of the 8000 version that are coming out?

    Directors cut? The one with 8 hours of making spider man? the box set? the collectors edition? The ream you in the ass edition?

  13. Re:BEFORE the flamewar commences... on Fahrenheit 9/11 Discussion · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Easily, by simply editing the clips. ie: the Bush clip on a golf course, answering questions and then telling the media to watch his swing. Moore doesnt want you to know because he only flashed the clip there for a second but Bush was spending time with Tony Blair during that trip - not all fun and games. Moore is a genius in the way Joseph Goebbels, Hitlers propagandist was.

  14. Re:Let the flamewar....COMMENCE! on Fahrenheit 9/11 Discussion · · Score: 1

    So the only freedom worth fighting for is your own? I guess a few thousand Kurds aren't worth the money.

  15. Re:Damn Straight. on Beastie Boys Respond to DRM Claims · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Actually, Thats plain copyright infringement Mr. Hatch, but we won't go there. You're correct thats not fair use, but what the poster is saying is that the recording industry doesnt respect fair use so he is going to use civil disobedience to disrespect them in return.

  16. Those nit picking about vertical vs horizontal on Mobo for Vertically Challenged Devices · · Score: 1

    It is vertically challenged. I rarely see anyone put an HS(F) on something while it's mounted sideways.

  20. I took it... on First Java AP Computer Science Exam Complete · · Score: 1

    ...and I'll be honest that I thought it was pretty difficult. I guess i'll let you all know how I did when i get my scores in August.

  22. Re:Best. Excerpt. Ever. on MIT Student Grills Valenti on Fair Use · · Score: 1

    Linux users do not have a God or country given right to watch American Wedding on their Linux box Thats where you're wrong. If the purchased the movie they should be able to view it where ever the hell they'd like.

  23. Re:Outrageous on MPAA Funds School Programs In Copyright Dogma · · Score: 1

    This is pretty messed up. Private companies should not be allowed to spew their propaganda in public schools. The war on drugs is, in fact, more reasonable. Equate what the MPAA is doing to drug dealers telling kids to buy drugs.
