first a barcode is 12 digits, however the first and last digit are control digits and are not used to identify the product, but to check if the code is plausable.
second europe/asia uses 13digit upc's
as far as i know, there are private class upc ranges, someone metioned starting with 0000, at work we use 8888 so perhaps 0000-9999 is a private range..
this is how i thin kit is, i could be flat out wrong..
zettybtye may be warrantying the machines, but if they include original documentation, then it points th econsumer back to apple, and thus causes confusion.
the point about the honda civic expresses my idea, better then i did. once it is modified, and resold, the original warranty is no longer applicable.

it is a modified emac, if i ordered the part listed on the box, i would not get one with a superdrive.
your right it is an emac, made by apple, however the product as sold is not an apple model, and should not be called one.
calling the product an emac causes confusion because consumers will go into stores and ask for the superdrive emac, which does not exist.
apple sold an emac to zettybyte. zettybyte changed it from its original form, and design options, and therefore shouldnt use apple marketing names for their product.
it would be perfectly ok to tell people its a modified emac with a super drive (that is what it is) it just should nto be marketed as an apple emac, which it was
Im apple Authorized to preform service, and emac optical drives are not user serviceable. they are burried quite nicely in the system, and are a pain to get at if need be.
yes they are emacs, but they are modified to an unsupported config
apple is one of 2 pc makers to turn a profit this year. dell is the other.
ibm also did, but they do lots of things other then just pc's
Using Apple trademarks most likely..

i think the big issue is with someone selling a modified product, and calling it an emac.
the company that makes the rackable g4's doesnt call them powermac g4's, they have their own model name. and package them differently. Apple sells the emacs to Zettybyte, apple doesnt care what happens to them, what they likely have the issue with is people buying these, thinking that they are supported by apple, when they are not.
Zettybyte doesnt call them the z-1000, they call them an apple emac, and likely ship the modified units in apple boxes, with apple documentation. and buyers (at least a percentage) call apple for support on these machines, with voided warrantys. this likely causes customer confusion, and dissatisfaction with the Apple Brand and is the reson for the halting of production.
Correct me if im wrong, but are their not bills which have been passed, or are in the process of being passed that make acts such as these considered terrorism?
This Notice is Very likely proprietary information to AT&T. The submitter obviously has a very small or nonexistant understanding of security issues and confidentiality if he is forwarding this information outside the company.
The Notice does list good procedures with regards to verifying identities, and avoiding social engineeering attacks, and does outline a legitimate security concern to AT&T, and thier security department acted.
Your right, the idea is a good one, infact, the CC companies have a Secure online trasaction standard (SET) that is used to authenticate cards, but not have individul mechants deal with the card information.
The problem with passport, is that some people dontlike all there shopping habits and personal information tied up in a big repository, that could be sold at the drop of a hat.
Microsoft also has a history of changing policies to benifit them, and take away rights from the user, and there is also the concern of your dataa being kept by microsoft as a result of thier track record on privacy and security of systems
if visa offered this thier intentions would be to lessn fraud and increase thier profits. id say visa is trust worthy, and has a vaild point, so sign up now, but what is MS's reasons for doing this?
Because governments have a need for to maintain the confidentiality, integrity of there information , or very serious consequeses could result.
in private industry, if you get hacked, you go out of business. in government, if you get cracked, the chinease find out about that sub you have off their coast. The stakes are much higher.
many gov crypto certs assign a measureable level of trust to a system, so you know what to expect, and are not bitten by impementation or design flaws.
Well Please share your solution. In every interview i have heard with the protest organizers they fail to mention what their solution is.
I should also point out that the windows of the mcdonalds you smashed doesnt belong to the corporation, but is owned by a local business person who owns a francise, and is trying to make a living.
I recently spent a week in Toronto (i assume this due to your complaints of a TTC strike) and did not once damage anything in your home town, litter, write on anything with chalk, and i also droped a few hundered dollars into the local economy. Next time you visit Ottawa, kindly do the same.
i love my freedoms as a Canadian, and i love my cell phone, and i fully support peoples rights to peacefull demonstration.
I live in Ottawa. during the g8 conference a group of protesters has vowed to disrupt life in the city, and refused to talk to police, or make statements to discourage violence, infact they have encouraged it. Business are boarding up, and citizens are scared.
I do not like when people come to my home and destroy it for there own political goals. I understand the reasons not to block trafic, however, anything that can be done to keep my home from being destroyed by these protestors MUST be done.
civil disobediance is onething (gandhi practiced it, and never once struck out at anyone) wantan distruction of property is another.
before you comment, to this article about how your liberties and freedoms are being taken away by the authorities, think about what you would want if your home town was suddenly faced with thousands of violent protestors.
That was a bad article. Macs do suffer from virus, and other malware, and the article does make the point that if a venerablity exists it will be exploited, regardless, however what it fails to point out are that there are fewer venerablities on a mac.
Also it fails to mention that macro virus's are MICROSOFT Viruses. dont use MS and you are fine.
The article should be Use Microsoft, Get viruses. More FDU With this one folks

For the record, Im young (22), Know what Im doing and am utterly incapable of getting a job with the feds in Ottawa because je ne pas parles francais.

Appel has been sucessfull due to Jobs' vision, you either love it or hate it, it doesnt try to please every one so it works.
Thats jobs attitude, and if he doesnt like a question, he gives the finger.
Apple - technology with attitude
(slogan from rebel.com, the now defunct makers of the netwinder)
He allready owns the internet. he carries it arround on a floppy disk in has back pocket.
He had an IT guy download it last week for him.
(its a joke, laugh)
