Would be everybody who stole a laptop that day knowing they could have hit the jackpot.
3 months down the line the things going to have been wiped clean and maybe passed on. Atleast this way theres less chance of anything "useful" being found out. Pushing the boat a little further I'd also guess they have some form of security on the laptop end, lets just hope the password isn't "Admin" ^^
Microsoft don't care about who uses their Browser. Wait a second and think, how much money does IE generate? Step back and look at the bigger picture, limiting the OS that the latest version of IE is available on entices people to use that OS. Microsoft are doing this to increase interest in XP amongst those of us who haven't upgraded yet, and that is where the IE cheque gets cashed.
ok, judging by the response to the article your a bunch of geeks who dont have a clue about how the rest of the world works. Our government isnt trying to invade our privacy, they are trying to uphold the rights of other people in our nation. Personally i think its a good thing, violent crimes are on the decrease, I actually feel safe to some degree whilst walking through a cctv area. Note i said cctv AREA. its not like they have cameras on every street, just the trouble spots.
Maybe if you stopped being worried about your independance and freedom, and started being more considerate, you'd have less violent crimes.
but, no, you want to be able to shoot people. you want to be able to run a guy down and drive away with nothing to take down your number plate. you want to be kept up all night by your teenage neighbours kickin' tunes. maybe if you left your own little world once in a while you'd realise america's freedom isnt all its made out to be.
end of rant.
