True, and I agree with you; but it's not really relevant to this situation. Australian copyright law allows works 50 years *after the author's death* to enter the public domain; some of these are still in copyright in other countries because their terms can allow work to remain in copyright more than 50 years after the author's death. Since the author's death is the important bit, I don't think Australian copyright law as it is now is in any way keeping new works from being written; after all, one can neither receive benefit or make new works after one's death.
Blazing Dragons, too... a fun game, but somewhat of an annoyance without a mouse. I still wonder why they never made a computer version of that game. ^.^;
Perhaps with this experience under their belt, Apple may take a shot at the game console market? I doubt it, but it would be interesting if they did...
As I recall, the Pippin failed rather miserably; past history considered, would they really want to reenter an already-crowded market?
I've said it before, and I'll say it again. If, during a week's vacation, physical junk mail is delivered in such quantities that it overflows my porch and causes the post office to begin burning or returning to sender all of my mail, including actual personal mail *and* each piece of junk mail can end up costing *me* and not the sender, then I'll hate it more than I hate spam.
I know about Studio Ghibli, yes. I also know that Disney handles distribution of Ghibli's films just about everywhere in the world, with the exceptions of Taiwan and, I believe, Australia. Not too unlike Pixar, really. Note the Buena Vista Home Video and Disney logos on even Japanese releases of Studio Ghibli films.
Really? You couldn't get it to work? It works nicely for me... the only thing I could think of that might be a problem for you is that there are some bugs with AltiVec. For normal use, it's not a problem, but the OS X installer has some problems if you have AltiVec enabled; make certain you disable it before entering the OS installer. I have OS 9.2.2 and OS X 10.2 installed on my AmigaOne on a spare partition, and they work very well.
Wrong. Dead wrong.
Not to be pedantic, but it does really destroy your point to mention that MacOS will only run on approved hardware.
Do explain why I have MacOS X running on my AmigaOne, then. Oh, wait, that's right... it's because, with special software, you can run MacOS on non-Apple hardware.
To be fair, MacOS can run on other obscure hardware - like the AmigaOne, Pegasos, IBM PPC, etc. That doesn't really affect your point, mind you; I'm just being pedantic.
How can software companies port their apps when the viral GPL stands in the way? The GPL is the reason why you Lunix kiddies don't have Photoshop, MS Office, and games. If you'd stop sucking Richard Stallman's cock and *think* for yourself once in your life, you'd realize why your OS is unsupported.
Which is why there's already closed-source commercial software for Linux, right? The GPL doesn't keep developers from making closed-source software for Linux.
No, it wasn't. The Genesis contains the Master System hardware; the Master System's CPU is usually used as the Genesis' sound processing chip. The Master Gear Convertor just gets around physical differences in cartridges; a similar idea to the Megadrive Phantasy Star 1 cartridge, which was in fact just the Master System game in a Megadrive cartridge that used the Master System hardware.

Pretty much. Clearly, they *can* compile a version of the plugin for PPC since there's a MacOS version, at that. I attribute it to laziness, myself.
Yes, but not PPC Linux. They've had an x86 Linux Flash plug-in available for quite some time, but not one for PPC.
Hopefully, this means that they'll take non-x86 platforms semi-seriously. ;b I'd like a PPC Flash plug-in, that's for certain.

I don't know, I think Captain Fist would make a good president.

Sinbad was from Dreamworks. And I do believe you've forgotten Spirited Away, the 2003 Best Animated Feature Academy Award-winner.
I actually saw a lonely-looking copy of Caldera's Linux in my university bookstore recently. ^.^; It looks like it's been there for awhile.

Oh, and it would be "woman," not "man." ;3

Google has been great for catching plagiarism - my mother has used it to verify essays she suspected of being plagiarized.

Since the GameCube uses a G3, once Linux runs properly one could theoretically use a GameCube as a cheap Mac with Mac-on-Linux.
