  1. Re:This is nothing new on Web Based Turbo Tax Disclosure Vulnerability Found · · Score: 1

    Huh? Reverse number lookups have been around for a long time. You didn't need to do a DSL search, just click on the "Reverse # Lookup" link on Verizon's Support page. The fact that it was really hard to do this in a phone book in the old days doesn't make it a "security breach" on the web.

    I believe there is a major flaw with the fuel injection computer on ALL Ford motor vehicles which could at any time take control of your vehicle, disable the airbags and crash into the nearest telegraph pole (which it finds by GPS) at high speed.
    Finally, someone who will believe me! The insurance company just keeps harping on about how drunk I was.

  3. Re:Did he even look at the apple website? on Review of Apple's "Mighty Mouse" · · Score: 2, Informative

    Well, he's a she, for starters. Did you even look at the review? ;) As for the short cable: 1) Many Mac users don't have Apple keyboards with USB hubs in them 2) iBook users have their USB ports on the left. Awkward for right handed users

  4. Re:There isn't any provider that meets my needs. on Voom No More · · Score: 1

    Yes and yes. http://www.directv.com/DTVAPP/imagine/HDDVR.dsp Of course, this is the receiver that will be obsolete when the MPEG4 sats come on line. But it does work now.

  5. Re:Accuracy? on Search Engines for Handwritten Documents · · Score: 1

    Well, considering "We The People" is in the preamble to the Constitution, I imagine the OCR would have trouble finding it in the Declaration of Independence.
