Knoppix can do this. A relatively new feature for Knoppix is a program (under Knoppix->Utilities?) that installs programs to the RAM disk--allowing for non-distributable programs (those with restrictive licences) to be automatically downloaded and installed. F-Prot is one of the programs available for the installer to download and install.
yes but booting Knoppix and writing to a NTFS partition from it is like playing Russian roulette. NTFS write support is flaky at best.
fun to watch, until you've seen how each piece would kill any other piece then it's just torment. Especially if you really wanted to play chess. thankfully you could stop the animations (at least on the amiga you could)
right, re-reading my original post, I think I wasn't clear on that. You only have to pay the TV tax if you buy a TV. If you buy a TV then you intend to use it. So the mp3 tax would be associated to mp3 players. If you buy one then you want to listen to digital music.
I wouldn't mind paying a 'mp3 tax' if it means that I can share MP3s with friends. Think of it like the TV tax (something that we have in some Euro countries) it's basically a tax to see TV. You pay it once a year and you have the right to have as many TVs as you like and watch as much as you want. so If they could come up with a similar yearly tax for having the right o use MP3s (or oggs or wavs or whatever the current flavor of the month) with the right to download and use any music then I would gladly pay it (as long as it doesn't cost more than 12CDs:) as I rarely like 12 CDs a year.
People will move?
It's not like we can carry our few tools and babies and move to a cave or plain in a new better area! Will people suddenly all leave NYC if the temperature drops 20 degrees there? (I knokw it's not likely but just for argument's sake) Moving large cities is not that easy.
oh look, the same old 'when it's as popular, it will be as vulnerable' theory.
Firefox is not being designed with 'let's crush the competition, we'll worry about security later' mentality. Sure it has its vulnerabilities, all software do, but it's being sanely designed and hopefully will not get integrated into any OS.
That would work until the absence of the unsubscribe link is used widely to tag spam, then all spam will have a 'bogus' unsubscribe link. Which is already happening.
riiiiiiiiiiiiight.....

nay! We're porting a new windows feature to Linux: monopoly.
or else we'll have to pay,paaaaaaaaaaaaay
can you explain why there are two answers depending on whether you put http:// in front or not?
when the website is running linux :)
try Skype
e.g. "Computer, tea, Early Grey, Hot"
I think that's partly the point here. They want you to buy the same content over and over again everytime a new technology is created.
you mean it's more than 6000 years old?!

the only thing a beeholder has in his eye is a sting.
and to get them all done with In soviet Russia Mech robots build you. now can we move on?
not to mention that the math is most probably wrong. Is reading the magazines mutually exclusive?

actually if you pay for it and the copyright holder agrees then it isn't pirating.

well I don't know about you but usually when I spend money on a TV or an mp3 player then I intend to use it!
