I worked for a company for a while without one. Soon I was working on projects which were bringing in millions a month, then they wanted me to sign one. I told them I would let my lawyer look it over, I ended up leaving the company before I had to sign, went ot a competitor;).
Interesting rant. The current administration is scaring me and I voted to put them into office. I think the Iraq shit was overly hyped, and if we would have waited for the U.N. to finish we wouldn't have come out looking like the bad guys. And perhaps since we did have more support from others we would have taken our time and done it right.
Anyway, I see this administration mis-stepping alot, first they are against this, and then when their ratings go down, then they are willing to work with people (for example the 9/11 commity). Before they didn't want to give out much information, now they are wide open, I bet I can get information on what the president's color of his boxers are.
Politics suck.
You think that is bad, they already think hacking is a terrorist act. Wait until all the programmers of America that buy cryptography books, and virus prevention books become suspect of being a terrorist and someone ends up following you where ever you go. I say to everyone, pay for everything in cash;), and stop using libraries.
Wow that brings back memories, remember versioning. Now that saved me a couple times, I loved VAX/VMS sniff sniff. Oh and the ACL was done the right way.
Alot of the stuff you see on Sci-Fi usually end up influencing us in one way or another, when he said eliminating phones I think he meant more of regular phones you see today. either way, I wouldn't mind calling someone like this:

Then the world will be a bunch of eyeless people. When they get palm scans then the world will be full of handless people. The only reason we aren't walking without our brains is because noone has figured out how to read from them yet, and that other minor thing about not being able to walk without a brain. *smirks* I would be scared to see what happens when banks implement such things (ATMS)...
LOL, EB said this after they found out it was stolen, "... They will sell it back to her for what they paid the thief. As for the Playstation, she's simply out of luck." They violated state law, and they want her to take the amount they bought the stuff for. she has a very good case for getting a hell of alot more in court, because of it.
Never liked Eletronic Boutique anyway.
For people who are often going to meetings, this makes it pretty quick to set up, could go off your laptops power source so no need looking for an outlet, no need to adjust it, nice and fast. If it is priced correctly, I would even buy it just to have since, you never know when a gadget like this will come in handy. Ok okay, yes I was the one to buy the USB laptop lamp, and no I don't use it:(
Lets face it, without viruses alot of the flaws in our operating systems would still be open today, then hackers would have free reign into your system without your knowledge. More and more people wouldn't be using firewalls, more people wouldn't be using anti-virus software. Lets face it, the internet is still very fragile, remember way back in 1988 when one worm took down the internet, that can still happen today sad to say, but we are more knowledgible of how viruses use our software to do moreso now than anytime before. Microsoft is trying to change to that operating system where everything has to use their new.NET infrastructure so security will be tigher, not just in their operating system, but also in the applications third parties write. However, I know from past experience with Microsoft, they will end up trying to be backwards compatible and end up inheriting all those problems from before. But perhaps this time they will use their new purchase of Virtual PC to implement those backward compatibility environments totally away from their new operating system. But somehow I think Microsoft will end up even implementing that badly, because they want to give their users so much ease of use and cool features they end up shooting themselves in the foot, allowing people to use their own gullibility to weaking Microsoft's operating system. This same thing can be said about alot of operating systems out there trying to mimic them to some degree.
A few months back I remember seeing that 2Advanced did some flash for them. If you know about 2advanced, you will know they aren't cheap. Anyway, I was watching the forums and waiting for this thing to come out. Needless to say, I forgot about them, so I think this is just a way to drum up some publicity, I know they are probably getting slashdotted to hell by now.
The newest tactic they are doing is using your own computer to spam other people and set up your own server as a webserver that redirects traffic. So it looks like you are the spammer, yeah, you guys will think differently when you are handcuffed and being excorted to jail because our government can't afford really technical savvy people. And even if they could even technically savvy people can be fooled.
I don't know I still like the IPod it has alot of gadgets you can buy for it. Like the module you can add onto it to record meetings, or memos, or if you are a college student just record class sessions. I might buy this if the price is in the ball park.
You can probably get it under a grand

Office space around here goes for around 200 (well, your location it might be different) a month, and bandwidth these days is pretty cheap. So after everything is said and done, you are looking at spending around 1-2k a month. If you aren't going to use alot of bandwidth, hell it could be less than a grand a month.
Actually for home networks it would be great, say the field would drop right at my front porch and somewhere around my backyard, my friend when his provider went out of business, was connecting to his neighbors AccessPoint, for like 2 month or so until bellsouth started providing DSL in his neighborhood. The benefits alone is great for people who don't know how to set up a secure Access point. Just awhile ago slashdot was running a story of a guy who got caught wardriving and looking at kiddy porn, this would be a thing of the past. Of course doesn't stop the people who find an access point in front of a building and just sit out on the stoop.

The internet is so conjested with other systems trying to get into my system right now, what makes this any different?

I learned Assembly on a VAX, but then had to learn it for x86, actually kinda like VAX assembly better.
Wow that brings back memories, remember versioning. Now that saved me a couple times, I loved VAX/VMS sniff sniff. Oh and the ACL was done the right way.
LOL that is hilarious!!!
Hmm, sell it to me if it still works. :)

Actually was having a hard time finding an IMAP client that worked well, until I found Thunderbird and now that is all I use.
Okay the real father of dos and windows is here
That is a price of a cheap laptop.

Sounds something like WDDX, but with executable code segments. This patent stuff is getting crazy.
Stuff like this shouldn't be patented, but if they are allowing it, so I am going to patent my shit now, so I can get some money out of the deal.

Well was looking at the Yamaha Motif series, but the prices were too stiff, so I figured a cheap casio, mixer, and sound module would do fine for now.
I am getting a casio keyboard on monday, but this keyboard looks really nice, wouldn't mind giving it a shot. What is the price?
