Actually, there are some bootlegs going around from someone called Dr. Ebbetts who took pristine vinyl pressings, ripped, and mastered them using state of the art equipment.
They sound so much better than the official releases.
Put some copies of linux in boxes with documentation and sell at retail for 500 dollars but keep it free to download. Nobody will buy it, but people will download it thinking that they are getting a good deal.
I got an NES for christmas but my mom and her friend stayed up all night playing it. They got to the first warp zone and didn't know how to go down a pipe so she ran around until time ran out.
Years later my grandfather would play Dr Mario for hours at a time in a trance. Until I sold my NES. He is dead now. I feel kinda bad about taking away his Dr Mario.
If we knew how big the pool was, we could do the math to see how many gallons "8 inches of water" is to see exactly much would be pumped into his home.
Thats why I only use ATMs that are from my Bank. I don't trust those free standing machines. They could easily be a machine with a card reader that says out of order once you slide your card. If they are legit, this shows just how insecure they still can be.
I went to a Chines place at the mall that didn't take debit cards. I had to use one of those ATMs, I watched my statement like a hawk for a month after that.
Just because everyone has fast connections doesn't mean people should quit designing webpages that are efficient to load. Myspace is like any other site, basic rules of web page design still apply. I have flash and java disabled specifically to keep myspace profiles from pissing me off.
You mean like they go ahead and put spyware in Windows when you install it? That is brilliant! It will save normal users two hours before their system is infected and it slows down to a halt. No wonder Vista requires so much ram!
I have a Zire 31. I got it when it came out and it served me well through those last couple years of school. I used the mp3 playback all the time before I got an ipod. It is great for reading downloaded text and reference materials. My favorite two pairs of jeans have worn marks around the left pocket where it sticks out. I'm thinking about getting the Palm TX but the only real advantage for me would be browsing the web while I'm at the bar.
Actually bank of america has a site key deal where you see a personalized line of text and picture after your user name and before your password to make sure the site is actually Bank of America.
When I first got netflix it was awesome because I could catch up on legendary movies that I should see for the sake of seeing. After 6 months, it got to the point where I would have something like the original version of The Manchurian Candidate sitting on my dvd player for two weeks. I eventually canceled it, but I just rejoined. Now I'm more selective of the movies in my queue, making sure that I am actually going to watch the movie promptly when it arrives in my mail box so I can get the most out of the service.
But as far as the original perp goes, to be honest, I would doubt that the perp is a low-brow thief. More likely, the thief, if there WAS a thief, was someone on the inside at the VA, who knew EXACTLY what he, or she, was doing and what he, or she, was taking, and for exactly what purposes.
I assumed all along that it was an "inside job" in one form or another. And if you assume that the guy who worked for the VA was in on it all along, you have to assume that the accomplishes would have researched exactly what needed to be done to steal the data and cover their tracks.
Lets not forget that 10 years ago buying music for download wasn't practical for a number of reasons. Hard drive space, connection speed, standardized formats, and something to play them on other than the computer.
I signed up as part of one of those free ipod referrals mind **** scams. Anyway I canceled the service after never logging in because I couldn't get it to work(I don't remember the specific problem, it was about a year ago). Three months later I got a call asking how I liked the service. She gave me another member to call and cancel it. The lady told me that they didn't have a record of my membership. I never got a bill so no worries. I also never got my free ipod.
If more artists released albums with more than two good songs on it, I would value music more and buy more. Back in the 70s and 80s, artists released albums that were good from start to finish. If the music industry puts out albums with disposable crap on them then people will value it as such.

I guess it is kinda hard for people to get excited when your message is basically "Abolish the Fed."

I thought it was common knowledge that Bell was an asshole. Look at what he did to David Bowie in The Prestige.
Thanks! The Daily Show and Colbert Report clips are the only reason why I even bother with ifilm. You just made my day.

He would have to have a lot of computers to generate enough heat to affect the temperature of the pool water.

A little note about 24 using Dell and Apple computers. For the first couple of seasons, the good guys generally used Macs and the bad guys used PCs.

I read the title and thought that someone wrote a virus that drains your batteries. That would suck if they had that for ipods.
I got accepted to ISU, I'm so ready to go and I'm going to be styling you my sweet laptop. Anyone know where I can get a wifi card for a Tandy 100?
Yeah well Myspace hasn't helped me to get a girlfriend and I ahve been using it for 6 months!
I always said that you could drink enough beer to cancel out smoking cigarettes.

The same thing in that article is true about the last Metallica album.
