  1. Not to worry on Record Labels Release Software To Combat Piracy · · Score: 1

    90% of kids know more about computers than their parents ever will

  2. BS on U.S. Announces Global Intellectual Property Plan · · Score: 1

    I dont want my tax dollars going to fund this useless enforcement, It would be worse of a waste than the War on Drugs

  3. Re:and she's buying a... on Space Elevator Gets FAA Clearance · · Score: 1

    Pretty funny as Im listening to Kashmir right now.

  4. Re:Why contaminate? on MS Vista Look and Feel To Go Cross-Platform · · Score: 1

    I hope that MS doesnt try to attach this to their Office for Mac software. Why do mac users want another graphics layer? I sure as hell dont want any extra software on my Mac when Apple has already included everything developers need

  5. all the more reason on TiVo OS Update Adds Content Protection · · Score: 1

    to build your own DVR if you have the resources and access to the 'net.

  6. Re:Won't happen until... on Novell Expects Vista to Spur Linux Adoption · · Score: 1

    Mac OSX is extremely easy to install on and to uninstall anything

  7. stating the obvious but on The Next 50 Years of Computer Security · · Score: 1

    The vast majority would probably be much happier on another OS instead of Windows, cause lets face it all modern malware is for Windows. UNIX and Linux offer enough options to satisfy just about any group and the user/company gets to keep closer control on their systems and dont have to pay licensing fees to MS or buy antivirus programs and subscriptions on top of that taking up computing cycles and HD space. UNIX and Linux users only have to keep their firewalls activated or if youre an OSX user you can turn on Stealth mode. Open source is the future, and its the answer to expand human knowledge as no one group is holding the keys to knowledge when anyone anywhere can access info with open standards and formats

  8. It would make sense on Google Instant Messenger Coming Really (or Not?) · · Score: 1

    for Google to have their own IM client with VOIP. Google and yahoo! are locked in a oneupmanship atm. We should all be excited about a new protocol as Google is quick to please its customers so any feature requests we give would be quickly added possibly.

  9. start.com on Microsoft Testing Rival to Google's Start Page · · Score: 1

    how original. not surprising it doesnt seem to be compatible with Safari. I dont see any way of adding content. Ill just stick with my google or yahoo custom pages
