If you have a TechNet or MSDN subscription MS keeps even the ancient out of support stuff available. have not looked for 3.1 but a month or so ago I needed 3.11 and had no problems downloading it from there,
It is not security through obscurity at all. It is Defence in Depth, You should ALWAYS assume all code has bugs and a portion of those bugs are potentially security bugs. ASLR is an additional mitigation (Defence in Depth) for when the inevitable human error next pops up to make it harder to exploit.
While I don't believe in Deifying anyone, At least with Woz they are worshipping something that he actually did as opposed to Jobs where they are basically worshipping a used car salesman as the inventor of the car, albeit a very successful one.
I take the same approach with my investment portfolio, I know I am passionate about IT and hence I simply won't trust myself to invest in that market segment. Instead I research other sectors of the market that I can make investment choices where I can be certain my views are not clouding my financial decisions. If you can't divorce your business decisions from your passion then do like I do and avoid ever getting into those situations or be prepared to lose your pants.
The A380's had quite a few missteps when they first went into service as well. Both are very new designs with a lot of new tech, sadly I am sure eventually one of them will be a fatal misstep, still won't stop me flying on them, I get an an A380 for a 17 hour flight in 2 days. I don't think I would be any less comfortable if it was a Dreamliner.
A vulnerabilities value is directly related to how many users you can exploit. While their are still quite a few desktop Java has been spiralling the drain for years now and the recent press of exploits has only hastened it. What value is an exploit to a small market?
Not to mention you can just not register the cash in the machine or have separate machines that don't report centrally or any number of other ways. The machine being auditable only works if every other part of the sales process is auditable and controllable and really this isn't possible in anything but the largest organisations.
The PS3 was also a huge failure on initial launch as it was deemed to expensive by much of the consumer base, it wasn't until they cut the price significantly that the PS3 says actually started to take off. You cannot price a console in the $500+ range and expect mass adoption, it doesn't matter how cool or how powerful the features are.
It is all but impossible to come even close to back burning enough to prevent these fires, Australia definitely doesn't backburn enough, more often then not it is prevented by greenies or do-gooders that think they are helping the bush by trying to prevent it, however Australia is massive and many of these fires rage in inaccessible bushland, the best we can do is better protect towns and houses, even then many residents are their own worst enemies as they want their big shady gum trees near their houses.
Pint is an excellent example of just how broken the imperial system is as just like a gallon a pint is dependent on the country you are in. Also interestingly the US doesn't use the imperial Pint they use a liquid pint. Gallons, pints, feet, inches have all had slightly different measurements depending on the country you are in and even the year in which they were measured.
Many places have standards for deletion of code, this is of course assuming by deletion you mean completed gone not just archived in source control. Deleting old code is like deleting history, if it is not there to learn from you are destined to eventually repeat the same mistakes. We never delete code that has been live and in production, comment it out or archive it off in source control, nothing that made it through to a live system is ever under any circumstances deleted.
The costs involved in producing parts and machines that need to be done in both metric and imperial is reduced thus reducing consumer costs on imported items. Costs involved for producing items for export are also reduced, reduced confusion all around for a small amount of short term confusion.
considering apple only make a few items, even if they are incredibly popular, that is hardly a fail without them. Apple make up a tiny percent of the total consumer electronics market.
Didn't someone get done for some criminal charge about interception of mail intended for someone else not that long ago by registering names similar to those in a company to intercept misspelled mail addresses. Isn't what PC Pro is doing here, while amusing, the exact same crime? He has registered an address with the intention of intercepting mail incorrectly addressed to someone else?
Yep they moved from Samsung to LG for those retina displays. If anything the result has been even worse than the google maps fiasco, the ghosting and faulty panel problems have skyrocketed for them. Apple have put themselves in a very bad place, they rely on supplying quality hardware but have increasingly alienated the best quality supplier of said hardware (Samsung).

sounds like you need to bolt stuff down or upgrade your girlfriend to the 2.0 model.
For many businesses the handling cost of cash already exists and increasing the number of cash transactions doesn't alter the cash handling cost.

I find WiFi sucks the life out of my phone batteries, it is only ever on when I am specifically using it. Do others really leave it on all the time?
Sony is border line bankrupt, where exactly would they find the billions and billions required to spend just to kill off a competitor?
Given the article topic are you sure it was a typo?

You don't stop to refuel on either a A380 or a Dreamliner for a 17 hour flight.

pointing out a history of dodgy behaviour to further back the proposition that this is likely more of the same is not an Ad Hominem attack.

since when is your ATP cycle controlled by your brain? It is a chemical process in the body.
OnLive works? arrr didn't they go bankrupt because it DIDN'T work, as in people didn't want it?
