They wonder why people don't watch?
What if they actually showed new shows for the whole season?
Stuff is new for 2 months, then it's old for 2 months again. What happened to new shows all season long?
I've had one where you actually had to wait for the fucking modem to dial up and connect! You could hear the noises as it dialed and then negotiated the connection.
OS X is heading this way. There is a boot cache which is loaded instead of starting up all the services if they are running. It will skip Apache initialization, SSH, FTP etc. and speeds up the boot process by about 2/3 for me.
I don't think the iPod is so easy to duplicate. It took a lot of engineering to get all that hardware in such a small space. There aren't any that I know of that can match the size and capacity of the iPod.
Notice how I said size. All the other ones I've seen are much bigger.
When it pickes up they will no doubt make a profit with it. You can't make a proffit when you first start a business and this applies for any business.
And then their eMachine is hosed within a few months and they begin to hate computers, when they could have just not cheaped out and bought the iMac, been happy and have fun with it.
That would be true if Windoze didn't come with basically everything turned on by default and a zillion open ports.
If you connect a brand new XP machine to the internet without any firewall setup you will be infected within a matter of minutes. This has nothing to do with users being stupid.
OS X IS more secure and has nothing to do with how many people use it. There have been many studies done to show this, and even ones posted here on Slashdot which prove that OS X is more secure.
That is just a lame excuse.
You can use the run as.. feature in XP to run as the administrator or any other user, but I agree, that's a PITA and usually you forget the first time so you end up launching the program twice.
There's more to it than that. If Apple can stop Panther(10.3) from running on their own hardware(Powermac 9500 for example), they can stop it from running on anything else.
It's not as simple as it is with getting just Darwin to work. There are other things they do such as proprietarty software ROMs that are needed to run the system, which won't work on certain hardware.

I've been online since the days of BBSs and I've never heard of that guy. Are we all supposed to follow everything Microsoft?
If it's using 802.11b then it'd be easy to amp the hell out of an AP, install a 12VDC to 120VAC converter in your car and screw with the nearest tracking device.
They could have shot down the planes that crashed into the WTC LONG before they hit. Fighter jets are normally scrambled in less than 5 minutes the instant a commercial jet is off course.

You're wrong. AAC is an open format. http://www.vialicensing.com/products/mpeg4aac/stan dard.html

Probably an OS update.

Wouldn't happen because OS X is more secure.

Heh, I don't like the look of Longdong, err, Foghorn, err, Longhorn one bit. XP may be my last MS OS for a LONG time.

MS buys this script and includes it in IE so they don't have to code anything to make IE actually work.
222 megs for UNIX services?!?! WTF.

I think they are talking about the amount of bandwidth available on the phone system. There's only so much you can get out of the copper phone line.

They'd sell a zillion but then loose a zillion dollars because it's not profitable.
Adobe hasn't updated Premier on the Mac in ages. Hense the reason it's so slow and unoptimized.
It's the other way around.

If they play along like they're doing with the International Space Station, the network will be years behind and probably never be done.
