Well, there was that rootkit that intercepted a kernel call a month or two ago.
That said, it was not an issue on x64 platforms and as MS have already dropped dev on 32bit server OSs, looks like they're going the right way to get away from that sort of thing.
Windows 2008 is pretty much a hypervisor anyway with one 'guest' OS (itself). Installing the HyperV role only really virtualises the hardware and exposes the functionality to multiple guests. Not entirely accurate but close enough.
Also, the MS Powershell v2 has inbuilt commandlets for transferring files over BITS. Then there is bitsadmin.exe as part of the Windows Server Resource kit - not well documented but it's there.
Link here for a post about it on the Powershell blog.
Avaya posted a known exploit earlier this year, I think, to Cisco's high level folks. They used a MITM attack to siphon off voice traffic (G711, IIRC) and record it without DG or host seeing anything untoward.
That's fairly serious but I believe this is mitigated with DHCP Snooping and other methods.
Depends on where you are.
Generally, merchants in the UK shouldn't accept cards which are unsigned at all, or any other card from the person who presented it without valid photo Id or somesuch. To the best of my knowledge that's still common practice.
Finding a Mersenne prime is only useful if you know what it truly is...
If you step on a bug that has never yet been seen by a human, unless you're an entymologist (I mean bugs not words, I always forget which is which...) it means nothing to you.
I'm in my final year of Maths at university, and only about two weeks ago my Maths professor (who's quite respected) laughed at me for not having a calculator...
Doesn't mean I'm particularly good, just if you're at a good level you don't need calculators but for the things that are actually tedious...
Which isn't long division, I seem to have an endless sense of satisfaction about getting them.
Math software would be good for that but for anything less most math courses ask you to learn about these mappings by graphing them.
It is the best way to learn how a function "moves" by graphing it yourself. But, if you're at a sufficiently confident level, a nice piece of math software that can graph complex functions (at a home price level) would be a boon.
But Maple and the like are probably not best for High school, but definately useful for universtiy.

Quick! One of us is bound to produce Shakespeare soon...

They still sound cooler...
Not quite sure if that's whatt you mean...
But I could work it out. I'm not sure these kids could...
Probably Taylor series - maybe MacLaurin!
And that's not what you need or high (-ish) order maths...

Musicians need to know what notes mean before they can play them...
That's why we invented the abacus, stupid!
