Most of the accidents I've seen while working at a gas station recently were old people, and on top of that they frequently drove off, later telling the police that they didn't notice they hit another car.
Do you mind having someone email you a turn-by-turn itinerary for every single place you went, how fast you drove, where you stopped, how long you stopped, and so on... from your front door in the morning until you come home at night, in your email every day? Do you have any major problem with that?
That sounds like a stalker to me, though a lazy one at that.
Watching me do everything in my car, all from some cozy chair.
I found 3 boxes I had from way back... 2 Windows 3.1 boxes one still unopened and in mint condition. and one box to upgrade from dos to windows 3.1.
Maybe there will finally be a market to sell these and make a few bucks, or hell maybe even use the opened one.
Future shop (Owned by best buy) lost my laptop a few years back, i sent it in due to the same problem I paid $2300 for the laptop but was only refunded $1200 I would have pursued what i was owed but at that time in my life i needed it and didnt have time to argue (I spent 4 months just to get that)
I'd love to see some one drive away while its pumping, $110k down the drain... right now most pumps have a quick release that "Pops" and only costs about $30 to replace (or $140 more for hose an nozzle to if they don't notice while they leave...)
Back about 4 years ago I didn't download movies or music I also didn't buy any. Now after downloading roughly 2 a month of movies and 4 of music I spend $75 on DVD's with another $30 to the theaters and normally $300 a month on music CD's and another $100 a month on concerts. If I didn't download chances are I may stop buying, 30 second previews and all that crap just arnt enough to make me want to buy their products I like to "Test drive" for a week or so, see if its worth the hype.
It's not per pop its a few billion so long as Dell gets X number of windows out the door, they dont meet the required sales they pay extra, they sell more well... good for them
If Dell sold linux, Microsoft would be quite offended and feel it wont get X windows out or raise the number dell needs to get out to an unrealistic number.
I'd rather get my music with all its info (track names, album names, etc.) If I buy it and rip it, it gets all the info for me if its downloaded it has the info. I don't feel I should HAVE to buy a CD player and fill in all the names. Also circumventing DRM is illegal ( your way ) in Canada while downloading copyrighted material for non commercial use isn't illegal.
Another issue the time,
30 min to buy a good CD,
20 minutes to download,
I'd bet more than an hour to do it that way.
I have close to some 500 CD's, I don't have a CD player so I load them on my computer. Of the last 30 CD's I have bought about 10 of them have had some DRM so I cant load them on my computer (linux) if they don't work on my computer they are useless to me Because I cant listen to them so I have given up on buying CD's and now download them of the internet, why should I buy the CD's if I cant use them?
(Most of the CD's with the DRM did no say they had DRM on them so I don't want to gamble my money on if I can listen to music or not)
I live in 2 worlds, one I can hurt one I shouldn't In one if I was to hold up a store or shoot up people one I shouldn't even punch for fun. If I hurt in one world nobody cares, I can go about doing it more and then i get bored. In my other world If i was to hurt at all people would be outraged at me i wouldn't be able to do anything.
I understand the rules of both worlds and I live both diffrently I never cross one with the other, if I did there would be major problems.
On a side note, GTA games should not cause problems if it affected them then the real world would affect them in the game so they wouldn't have become a violent abusive person and wouldn't have caused problems in the begining.
Aren't we so glad Microsoft is getting into the Anti-Virus Business.....oh wait...don't they make the OS?
What happened to fixing the OS, so an AV isn't needed?

I've just been getting DVD's instead of Blu-Ray's, I can play them on all my computers, all my recent consoles and my portable DVD player.
My Blu-Ray player I'm restricted at the moment to one TV and for twice the price I'd rather get 2 DVD's than 1 Blu-Ray.

This has been happening to me and all i got on my vista box is Winamp

The CDDA logo is ALWAYS on the disks but almost never on new CD cases.

jarich explains it better than I do
The first couple cpu's of a line cost millions and millions to make, they need to charge for the money lost on the first few.
Probably not slashdot'ed maybe after over 3 years nobody cares about it so the mirrors and stuff are dropped

Horay!
This GNU/Linux system is not "pirated".
Wow i hopped it was a good copy after all the money i spent on it!
I'd have to say #2 they clearly have found that they will not make money protecting people that are not prone to viruses from viruses :-P
HasWeb is a company of hostdime, hostdime is the same company as surpass. (Does this make sence?)

Maybe everyone can't afford a state of the art computer every year.
Least Value possible (From the company's):
Microsoft's Windows=$1
Many Linux Distro's=$0
Sun's Solaris=$0
Apple's Mac OS X=$129
Now Apple needs to lower the prices!
