Other than this being/. and all, why would a low life marketer for AMD be any different than a low life marketer for Microsoft or Apple. Marketers are asshats. They know that there's money in your pocket that rightfully belongs in theirs, and all means are valid for eliciting a transfer. Who the client is matters not.
Yea, I'm in the same boat with my car, but I don't go around installing new mods to my engine each week. I also take my car into the shop 3-6 times a year for oil and other maintenance. The analogy just doesn't work beacuse normal users don't respect the machine or maintain it.
Hey, Windows XP certainly isn't better than Windows 2000, but 2000 was a major improvement over NT. The only platform I see benefiting from Windows XP is the laptop. There's no need to upgrade desktops from 2000 to XP. There are some Windows 2003 AD extensions missing, but that's not the end of the world. Windows 2000 might last you until Longhorn, if you even want to do that in 2005/6/7.
NO. Clueless managers just realized that they got bilked and are pissed and pointing fingers. Nothing new there. My boss wanted us to add the SA to our new licenses and I talked her out of it. Just looking at the program details, anyone with any history in this industry should have known that the next release would never be out and ready for us to adopt in the timeframe specified.
If it's like what the Universtiy where I works does, it's using packet analysis and capping your activity. It's forcing you to share and play nice with the other 100 - 100,000 people on the network. Now, why the dorms aren't physcially segmented from the rest of campus I'll never be able to explain.
Usually, when you build something from day one and end up a multi-billlionaire, it wasn't about the money. Money isn't the point of the game, it's just one of the ways to keep score.
Most (all?) local phone service has its rates capped by the Public Utilities Commission (or whatever it's called in your state). Now, the prices will almost surely creap back to whatever the cap is, but they can't shoot thru the roof.
I found that in physics, going with 'common' sense or your gut was a good way to look stupid while making it obvious that you didn't review the lecture material the night before. On the flip side, the math always did a hell of a job predicting the outcome of experiments.
It's a guy thing. Nothing personal (usually) and we all get it. It's fun and a nice stress release. It's rude, crude and usually involves words so foul that you'd never actually utter them in anger. It's not personal.
I want to know where you get this idea that the police are there to protect you? From the side of their car, mabye, but that's not their purpose. Cops are there to catch those who ares uspected of having already comitted crimes. You should take your own protection seriously. A cop may come to take a report after, but only on TV do they magically show up during a crime.
Those machines also didn't have firewalls running locally. They let machines connect that had no business connect and infect them. No security program will ever be foolproof, you just have to throw up roadblocks and assume that the attack vectors are inside and outside of the border.

Since it's text only, I'd say that it could display all of them. :)

Well Gopher did die off, but nobody remembers that.

Awesome! I really like Lain, and was a bit unhappy with the ending.
It was a show about nothing, no one missed what it was about, becasue it wasn't.
Oh wait, Chappelle Show is on tomorrow, better wait until Thursday. ;)

Well, we just didn't buy something we didn't need, so we got nothing for nothing. Which feels fair. ;)

F-Secure does. McAfee is trash.

Wow. Thanks for making me feel really old and really dirty all at the same time. 1986, fuck...
That wouldn't explain why the 85 and 87 variants don't come up the same way.
This quote from the article demonstrates the comeplete lack of attention to security that runs throughout the products:
Among their surprises: all of Maryland's machines had two identical locks, which could be opened by any one of 32,000 keys or be easily picked.

Hey, since it's more accurate than you are, you won't ever notice. :)

You sure? I thought they were moving the business and government support back to the states. Home user support is staying off-shore.

The car alarm was armed.
It was not disarmed.
The car door was opened.
The alarm went off.
Why would you want to disable this?
Am I just missing it, or is there no possible use for such a device? What would it do that anyone would pay $300 for one?
