One thing Enviroments refse to admit and deal with is that we'd have less polution if we had less people.
As soon as people hit the Industrial Revolution level of technology (so ignore those subsistance farmers) they start dumping more and more crap into the air. And, as globalization allows more and more people to increase their standard of living, more and more polution occurs.
So, if care so damn much about the environment, start supporting genocide. Fortunatly the French already support genocide for Americans.
Do you really think there are any studys on this issue that are not out to prove a political point of view?
I assume ALL of them (pro & con) have an agenda.
In 8 years I have yet to be hit with a virus. It makes me wonder how useful _personally_ (for me) owning Norton AV is. I know, it is like saying "I've never been in an accident. Why have more than the legal minimum on car insurance?" But, unlike car insurance, if I get hit with a virus, I can go out and instantly buy NAV and repair the problem.
As a result I won't be upgrading to NAV 2004. They can keep their buggy product activation. Especially since I have NAV 2003 with the crack that makes the subscribtion last till 2041.
Oh, just give up on the term "hacker." Most people equate "hacker" with "computer criminal" and you are not going to change that.
I don't care how much you want and whine about the term "cracker." The general population has decided what the word "hacker" means and your definition lost. Pick a new one.
Once a definition has been decided it has a tendency to stick even if the Special Interest Group is forceful in changing it. "Queer" still means "Homosexual" (at least in part) even if we came up with the new, improved, prefered term "Gay." You don't want to be thought of as computer criminals? Get the general public to think of a new word (or new defintion of an old word) when they think of your definition of "hacker." Because they ain't going to change their definition of "hacker" to make you happy.
Maybe then you can work on a logo. (And, BTW, the Go/Othelo/Life logo is pretty stupid anyhow. You want a logo? Get one that is cute and personable, like the Penguin or Daemon.) But don't worry about a logo right now. The Hacker community has bigger public relations problems.

Isn't MusicMatch spyware/adware?
If so, good for iTunes for wrecking it.
