It's a very common practice in many industries to "tilt" the facts to their favor. Look at the hard drive industry and tell me why my 80GB drive ends up being a 74.5GB drive when I format it.
It would seem that they hijack HIV and turn it into an anti-HIV virus. Though that might make it easier to spead the cure around, one can only wonder if there is the possibility for things to go wrong to create a super virus thats difficult if not impossible to stop...
While that sounds like a nice way for Sony to cut out the middle man, you're forgetting that it's alot harder to physically copy a copy-protected, non-standard format game disc than, oh, some file you download to a hard drive. After all, the only way to pirate GameCube discs was due to a buffer overflow in Phantasy Star Online. I can only asume that online game distribution would be pretty easy to crack compared to cd copying.
If I remember correctly, didn't Nintendo say that the DS is not a sequel to the GBA? Besides, one of the real selling points of the GBA (and PS2) was that it could play every single Game Boy game ever released since the system debuted in the late 80s, and thats certainly a negative for Sony's PSP.
Ha... nice try, but no such device exists. You can only have 2 of the 3 items... Take your pick of: 1) Good resolution 2) internal battery 3) low price
Not that his effort isn't appreciated but...

Isn't it possible that some legalities could result from "amplifying" someone elses open WiFi network?
besides the usual Microsoft Hotfixes and service packs, I usually install....
1) Mozilla
2) WinZip
3) FileZilla
4) F-Prot Antivirus
5) Nero
6) Quicktime
7) Acrobat Reader
8) The GIMP
9) Winamp
10) VMWare Workstation
Just when you think the first one had all the classic games you could ever want, this thing comes out of nowhere. I certainly know I'll be enjoying more of Total Carnage and the Mortal Kombats, now quarter free!
That's such a sweet idea, but why should this robot be giving away free drinks? I'd think that one with a dollar or coin mech would be a better idea. But for home use, yeah, it's a sweet idea!
It's unfortunate that UCLA fell for this trap. It would seem to me that this system could cause quite an interesting target to people who perhaps want to knock a bunch of people offline. Who's to blame when things go wrong?
Seriously, laptops are great as far as size is concerned and as a bonus come with battery backup! Rackmount cases really aren't that small (atleast not the 1U type), just thin and long. A few small factor form PCs would probably work better unless you're really sure you want rackmount. Rackmounts are better left in the server room I say.
So Microsoft is giving us the priviledge of letting us translate their products for them. For some reason I don't think this will work well commercial product. You paid for it, why should you work more? Obviously for open source, it's diffrent.
Wasn't the entire point of SSL was to be encrypted? Who's bright idea was it to put plain text in SSL in the first place, much less give browsers support for it?
While I think that EV1 Servers is honestly just trying to protect its customers and put their fears at bay, it's foolish to think that whatever 7 figure amount they paid isn't going to go directly towards SCO's FUD machine. Besides, didn't SCO themselves say they weren't going to sue an ISP?
Wasn't Bluetooth's main issues being that it had such short range and such low bandwidth? I couldn't see it being used for much more than wireless keyboards and mice, and apparently even that never caught on.
What happens when Microsoft releases their official patch? While being open source, who's to say that it will play well when Microsoft releases their official patch?
Slashdot Mirror
does this person really think that getting wild guesses from thousands of non-investor types will help him determine anything?

Incase of /.'ing, here's a mirror of the ordering pizza video pizza_party.mpg.

First SCO says it owns Linux, then Microsoft says it owns Apple... oh the horror!

So does this mean that they'll finally fix that Blue Screen of Death bug that I keep getting?

this little device, though interesting, doesn't seem to give much difference in performance to just holding the camera.
Methinks their wooden server must really be burning pretty good about now... Smores anyone?
Seems kinda pointless unless theres some sort of driver hack or the applications/games support this.

I guess thats why I always loose at coin tosses. And I always thought the coin just hated me or something.
