From your own link, wire-fraud necessarily includes, "to defraud, or for obtaining money or property." The MAFIAA do not claim to want to do any of those, only to get the information so as to further their actions in court.
Oh, you mean those RIAA letters aren't asking for real money?
Patent it and then make millions on people how try to use it...
I was thinking of applying for a patent on business methods that drive patrons away, but I didn't because the RIAA had too much "prior art". What was left was already claimed by SCO and Novell. Considering that I don't want to do business with any of them, I think their methods are much more "innovative" than mine.
How do you check the website when you don't have a computer. Not only was the "Vista Capable" ad campaign misleading at the very least, it was also discriminatory by victimizing low income people who may have saved for a long time to buy a new computer for their kids. Not a used computer, a new one that can run the new Vista being touted by even Bill Gates himself. They go into a store before Christmas and see a computer they can afford, and it's got a sticker on it that says "Vista Capable". When Vista is released, they redeem the coupon. Several weeks later, they receive their new Vista "upgrade" and find out that it's not the Vista Bill Gates was talking about, or that the ad campaign was representing as the "new Vista Operating System."
If Microsoft shills can only defend the ad campaign by saying, "everbody else does it," (reputable companies don't), or "it's all in the fine print on their website," then they have a problem. Nobody has said that the campaign was never deceptive, intended or not, or that Microsoft wasn't aware of the potential to mislead the average computer buyer. Step up, shills, and show your character now by denying the campaign was deceptive.
Sounds like a game of Redmond roulette to me. If microsoft were really honest, they would have the sticker clearly show that this computer Will Require More $$.
The sticker would also explain that some consumer devices (such as cellphones, voice recorders, printers, etc.) will not EVER work with ANY version of Vista and will also have to be replaced. But, of course, that's all part of the getting cored by Vista experience, which is why none of the above (not even the full quote from the parent post) appeared in the "Vista Capable" sticker.
Wow, you really do work for Microsoft! With typical Microsoft doublespeak, you just said Vista is really great, a major improvement in every area. It's beautiful, (as long as you don't actually try to use it.)
We currently have a client base of over 40 different and distinct clients with approx: 50 servers and 400 Windows clients (our largest client has a 4 Location WAN with over 120 clients and 10 servers.
Excitations of these systems with topological order were once thought to be necessarily "gapped", that is, the quasiparticle excitations have an effective mass. However, Wen has proposed a more general notion of "quantum order", in which gapless (massless) quasiparticles, analogous to photons or other gauge vector bosons, can appear.
One thing that immediately sprang to mind was that this might have an impact on the notions of phonons (not photons) in a crystalline lattice. Perhaps they are not quantized after all, at least not in the mineral herbertsmithite. "Gapless band" material properties may potentially be as revolutionary to semiconductor physics as the band gap properties of materials have been.
At the very least, it will be interesting to see what the phase diagram of herbersmithite looks like.
Although, 6 out of 100+ is still a fairly small number.
There are only 30 members of the committee. From Computerworld:
Rajchel wrote that she decided to move Open XML forward after consulting with staff at the International Technology Task Force. She did not mention that the 6,000-page proposal, submitted by another standards body, Ecma International, had garnered comments and criticism from 20 out of the 30 countries sitting on the JTC-1 committee.

I wonder if that is running Microsoft?
That's a right fact: using microsoft software can land you in prison.
