Perhaps it's not a great idea to make a movie like this into a documentary lesson on exactly how to screw up the Internet.
Yes, the process of making an atomic bomb is public knowledge by this point, but I still don't really want to see it drawn out for easy imitation and distributed to the general public.
I was in the room with him when he said exactly what I quoted to a crowd of about 1500 people. I feel certain he'll say exactly the same thing a few hundred more times in public.
The only technological topic addressed by Mitt Romney on his recent trip to my part of Texas was this: "We've got to get pornography off the internet!"
So basically, just more "think of the children" pandering.
Due to pre-anouncement speculation, Apple stock always rises, then fall immediately after the event. Jobs could announce a cure for cancer, and the stock would still fall.
Two things: 1: Music does not flow out of a tap somewhere for free. At least good music doesn't.
2: Washing your own car isn't free, either.
What you are advocating is giving away a product for nothing more than the cost of distribution. No one will do that for any length of time if they want to pay their bills.
Eight years later, there isn't a single authorized music service that can compete with the original Napster.
Wow, you're right! Not a single legitimate online music retailer can compete with a company that paid $0 for the products it distributed. That's amazing!
You should teach an economics course or something!
Yesterday I had the "pleasure" of using a laptop that came loaded with Vista as the master source for a full day of powerpoint presentations. One corrupted presentation brought up a nonsense error about "missing text attributes," but the best was the presentation that came on a DVD-r disk. The laptop spent 5 minutes reading the disk, then decided to hard freeze. Luckily, I had my MacBookPro sitting next to me, and in less than a minute I had the presentation off the DVD and onto a USB drive so that I could then load it onto the Vista machine. The presentation was fine. No telling what the laptop didn't like about the DVD.
(Oh, and it was one of those silly Dell XPS laptops with more superfluous lighting than a dozen ricers on any Friday night. Highly-polished turd, that one is.)
since when does a product reviewer need "special permission" from a vendor to do a proper review?
He probably signed papers requiring him to return it in the same condition as it was given to him. He wouldn't be able to truly test it without facing the possibility of destroying it and violating that agreement.
Did anyone else discover that any song that had "radio" in its title (Queen's Radio Ga-Ga) or discussed radio (Rush's Spirit of Radio) to be an instant personal favorite?
From what I've heard over the years just mentioning radio in the title or mentioning radio DJs (positively) in the lyrics guarantees frequent airplay in most cases.

The correct answer is: To Have and Have Not. (My favorite of the two, actually.)
The screen images are simulated. There is no way anything out of that projector is visible when the room lights are on.
No wonder it had to be a black cave. What a waste of $30k.

Or just never install MioNET in the first place. Either way, here's how.
Am I the only one who sees that this is nothing more than a giant four-sided heads-up display?
I hate getting sent to articles that are simple summaries of the original.

I guess I should have used more smilies.
I just KNOW I've seen this story posted before.

The previous iMac generation even had the instructions for adding memory printed on the bottom of the 'foot' the computer is standing on.
Apple sells DRM-free content.
The iPhone plays DRM-free content (from a number of sources, in a number of formats.)
I guess I'll hop in my time machine and do just that.
Or better yet, imagine if Ghengis Khan, Hitler, etc. had imaginary wargames like this to play with. Would they leave their basements either?
(Anyway, it looks like a lens flare.)
Either way, it's still under warranty.
