Killing aboves point 1: there are still law suits even though only the binary was released.
Killing aboves point 2: It easier to get a crack patch for any software, max time to do this 2min, than it is to be reading the source code and trying to figure out what does and doesn't need to be changed. Most crack patches just put in a jump command to skip the serial authentication, which has the same effect as commenting out the source, except you don't need to waste time compiling as well.

People don't want DRM. But, people do want certificates that verify the digital music they are buying is from a legitimate source, in comparison to being duped, tricked, into paying for warez, ie. like some of the illegitimate DVDs being sold on Ebay or on the streets of NY or in India or in China- "25 movies on 15 dvds for $50" kind of scams. DRM is Wrong. Knowning that you aren't being scammed is good.
If you install this through wine, make sure you install it to the correct directory, not %system_drive% path, but to c:\program files\ The program is really just a mixer with some ogg music files. What I do instead is run ogg123 -q -z ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/ChatterBlocker/ChatterBlocker_Content&
I'll run this each time for to add to the collection of concurrent sounds.
ok, ok, OpenCroquet.org is still in the works. Speed- they want OpenCroquet to work first, then they'll optimize it, however the beta version is still faster than the alpha version from a few years ago. There are also different projects, http://map.squeak.org/packagebyname/Exupery , and, http://goran.krampe.se/blog , to speed up what OpenCroquet is based on the Squeak VM. I know one problem is intel's lack of registers. That was the reason I hoped that Itanium would last- MORE REGISTERS! Too bad...
Security- from the docs: "A name space and security model is being developed. Our early study seems to indicate that a capabilities model similar to that used by the E [10] language is the proper course." http://www.opencroquet.org/Site%20PDFs/2003%20Croq uet%20Collab%20Arch.pdf
So, in time... Very importantly you must remember that, as it's princably/originally based off from being a smalltalk computer, it is meant to be it's own complete system. Think of it as futher than just an OS or NOS, but as a complete Collaborative OS. So you have to think as if you just started using a completly new OS. It takes some time to get used to. Also, like I said before it's still beta, for now...
The MIT Media Labs...I'm stunned every time I hear about another one of their crack pot schemes, inventions, devices, etc. I imagine they must waste more funds on half baked futurist techno crap than any other group at MIT.
I believe OpenCroquet is a 3D OOP world, which does what the other mentioned 3D can't do, dynamically changing the implementation. Although it's still Beta... www.opencroquet.org
Human Computer Interaction, for many, seems to have been pegged down to the windows 95 explorer.exe interface. The best project(s) that I've seen to demonstate possible Ideas is the OpenCroquet project:

Alan Kay, the head of the project, has some 40 years experience and has been in the lead of many tech projects, such as the Xerox Parc team that made smalltalk and a lot of other great stuff.

Douglas Engelbart had this back in the 60's. Take a look at his demo from back then. http://www.archive.org/details/AlanKeyD1987 http://www.archive.org/details/AlanKeyD1987_2 About: smalltalk (what squeak is) http://www.archive.org/details/DanIngal1989 Hopefully Alan Kay and his team will save us again with the squeak system, think of squeak as a whole new OS, but much more. I know that OpenCroquet project within squeak supports multi mouse www.opencroquet.org ~goslackware

Morning Class:
"Web3d" is pronounced OpenCroquet.org
From the article:
Croquet, an open-source software platform designed for creating collaborative, multiple-user online applications, showed off their software.
That's way understating OpenCroquet's abilities.

The squeak smalltalk VM can run on the more machine archs than any thing else, puts Java to shame.
