if you end up with number 3, like me, the company owns the laptop but encourages us to take it home etc. Doing this I end up using it for personal things as well. I use TrueCrypt for anything personal. Goes into the truecrypt image and anything work stays in the regular documents folder. If for any reason I part with the company, I just take my truecrypt file with me.
you make a very good point. I think Valves Steam software is a very good example of this, which I completely overlooked as I am a very faithful user of.

The whole deal never made any sense anyways. Like many of you said, why would people start paying for something they originally got for free. Because now it would be legit? The people downloading illegally never wanted to be legit in the first place..otherwise they would have gone to a store....
your right, terrible decision, but read, "are looking for possible insider trading after Global Gaming's stock jumped a >week before they announced plans to acquire The Pirate Bay. "
stock rose before the announcement, not when they announced..
Whats more, she blames defcon at the end of the article..

yes, not a coincidence at all... thats what happens when "hackers" get together...
