Too cool. Did you modify the cosmetics of the devices in anyway, or are they all simply teal/black linksys boxes? If so, do you fear someone might mistakenly replace a broken one with an off-the-shelf (non-custom-firmware) router?
Can employees work from home?
What kind of wireless security are you using?
Too cool.
And there was never a war in Tibet, we went there to reinstate our rightful authority there given the fact that Tibet was a province of China under the Empire, and since the PRC is a successor state i.e. is in a chain of replacement governemnts of the Empire, the PRC is legally in control of Tibet. So what you're saying is basically the equivalent of saying that China can't send troops to its own territory.
Try telling that to my mother, uncle, and aunt who fled from Tibet through the Himalayas because a neighbouring country decided to assert their "rightful authority". My grandfather died in China-Occupied Tibet and my grandmother died shortly after getting out.
Rape, slaughter, famine, and cultural-cleansing are some of the many atrocities Tibetans were subjected to because China decided to assert their "rightful authority". Tibet was an independant country. Sadly, it no longer is. I don't claim Tibet is a country, but strongly incist that it was.
How can you be so misinformed? You should be ashamed of what China did from a humanitarian point of view, regardless of whatever political bias and motivations you may have.

The role of the parents, in my opinion, is to expose their children to the widest variety of activities and subjects possible. If you became a professional soccer player, would you still be as bitter towards your parents?
They regulated the amount of time you spent on the computer so that the pianist in you could be discovered or the linguist in you could be fostered. I think it would be considered neglect if they were to Do Nothing.

Yeah! A world where you leave your shitty jobs to travel home through the throngs of other civilians in the endless rain just to find a renegade replicant in the kitchen that kills you.
Nice. One of the images seems similar to something I've seen in the past. Does anyone else think this one looks like a scene from one of those rendered Starcraft clips?
Very true. Based on my limited data, however, MacSoft would be *incredibly* happy if two out of three piraters bought the game.
My original point was that without a demo or alternate download scheme for the full copy, a hundred thousand pirated copies has little meaning because many of those people may have bought the game!
Friend #1: Has a high-end Mac G5. Downloaded Halo and used it until his copy arrived.
Friend #2: Downloaded the game. Tried it out on his current older machine. Ordered a new iBook. Bought Halo.
Myself: Downloaded the game. Tried it out on my Powerbook 667 (under min spec). Played for a night. Didn't have money for a new machine nor wanted to spend the time playing. Deleted it.
So, there you go. Three of the "hundreds of thousands" of pirated copies would have been prevented by supplying a demo or providing alternate software distribution schemes.
How hard is it to sell a serial number online and follow it up with box & CD later in the mail?

If I buy an episode of Lost from iTunes, am I legally allowed to download/have a copy of an HD rip of that same episode?

I suggest YOU look up some facts before posting pro-China "crap". Let's start with http://www.tibet.org/why/ and http://www.tibet.com/WhitePaper/
