Five years ago this month, a consortium of VHS tape producers touted a "ticker tape" Christmas season for all-time sales, and DVD have outsold tapes for every single month since March 2003.
Fifteen years before that, the RIAA leaders touted their "record year" for album sales, and CDs immediately supplanted records in 1988 and never looked back.
And thirty years ago in 1978 when Tomita released the final quad 8-track tape, the industry said it was "on track" for the best year ever as it instead saw the multi-track format slip into oblivion.
So when the MPAA touts a shiny year for DVDs, Blu-Ray is probably poised to make them eat their words.
When I leave a salaried position with a company to contract for them, it is usually for forty to fifty percent more pay to cover lost benefits. My fraction is 7/5 or 3/2 of previous pay levels if they want to get me out of bed the day after they "fire" me.
One cert makes you an "Agent" at the Best Buy store, and I actually got a phone call from someone who identified themselves as a "double Agent"... I never figured out if it meant they worked on Macs too, or something else.
Maybe they can sell a couple extra units to the public to defray the cost of repairs? I know that every time it hails here, Crazy Bob's Ford sells dozens more vehicles to people just waiting for such an act of God. So what if it's a little beat up, and of course it is still 10% over invoice sticker, and you gotta sign a waiver, and the insurance company makes sure you never file a silver paint claim... but your neighbors will be so jealous when you're the first on your block.
Another point to big service packs is that once SP(n) is released, marketing can admit SP(n-1)
is really quite insecure on WIN(r-3) and how WIN(r) is now strongly recommended for your shop
Double your pleasure, double your fun, with double the DRM.
Give away something for free that everyone wants, so you can install a piece of software on machines for other ventures.
(I'll never buy another Microsoft product if they ever install DRM that can't be removed via System Restore the next day)
a lifetime @hell.com address seems like a poor life choice
And the big boss there would be

whose in-progress auction nearly doubled (a whopping $1500) since kicking Michael J. Fox earlier this week.
Ends in 3 days, for those who haven't decided on the scariest person they can be for Halloween.
Windows has become a self maintaining, DRM-delivery system.
"A security issue has been identified that could
allow Microsoft to compromise your Windows-based
system and gain control over it. You can help

Recent events allow the swap of "an attacker" and "Microsoft".
It's a good bet that your call was "recorded for training purposes."
Training is usually non-existant, managers referring back to past recorded calls is non-existant, but you know that someone has saved all the provided names, numbers, and financial information.
Things were clearly in decline by 1957 when tens of millions of
Underwoods. were beginning to be replaced by the new Smith-Corona electric portables.
Particularly devastating was their
carriage return invention three years later. In between, the
IBM Selectric introduced the "golf ball" electric type. The writer was taken out of the process by making things too easy!
So in just four short years that shook the literary world, the unfortunate
Class of '61 saw the demise of pushing down manual keys, that pushed manual bars up, with a manual level you pushed to advanced lines.
Nobody knows better than the engineers what their MTTF rate is, and they should set time limits on the known data.
Western Digital put out a 12 month drive (they best know their own product quality) plus an optional $15 insurance plan.
You either build a more expensive, higher quality unit that can stand on its merits for 3 years, or you decide to build junk.
But don't let Marketing dictate quality, where 12-36 months out, you pray for less than one in six returns for a break-even.
You can turn off Javascript so the server end doesn't pull your local IP address behind the $39 Netgear or Linksys router. A pretty dead-giveaway for environments with a 1:1 correspondence between users and machines.
And I can pretty easily imagine some of the bad guys not showing their hand with new exploits until they start seeing big ol' ripe, leaking internal IP addresses like 172.31.1.155 or 10.10.1.180 (as opposed to 192.168.1.3 or 192.168.2.2)

Pointcast finally sold for just $7 million, less than eighteen months after
turning down very close to half a billion dollars from Rupert Murdoch.

Every time I've had special laptop checks at the International terminals, it has been with snug fitting cases.
Shoes don't come off until the second check -- makes me think the puffer machine has a little man inside.
Not anymore. Microsoft announced it will fully spend 4 years on its next XP Service Pack to make it really safe and secure.
Hmmm, SP1 in no longer supported and 2008 is an awful long time from now to still run SP2 ... maybe we should just get Vista in 2006!

No death, grow endlessly without aim or purpose:
it also seems like a good definition of nihilism.
