6) Heck - It might as well assist in those situations.
Rumor has it that Sony is planning on releasing the next version of their rootkit for this infrastructure. The new version will all users to call a simple API. I for one thank Sony for inventing a disabler of any new threatening technology.

You really think they are paying $14 for a memory stick? Or for that matter how much do you think a CD costs to produce? Granted that studio time and other production costs aren't cheap - but economies of scale would certainly indicate that:
a) The more CD's (MP3s) I produce the cheaper it is
b) The more Flash Drives I buy the cheaper it is
Order 100,000 flash drives and I guarantee the cost is quite low.
Claim 5: a communication process by a former employee which results in a boss throwing a chair across their office and then threatening to "kill Google".
Firstly, why would a Telco be developing this technology? It doesn't appear to further their business.
Then it dawned on me. With Avian Flu concerns, sending packets via that method is dangerous RFC 1149. Obviously if the Telco's controlled humans, they could deliver packets with them via a maximum of 6 hops (six degrees of separation).
I for one welcome our new communication specification. Long live IPviaH.
On top of mass production and the use of software images. A big winfall for the manufacturers is the advertising they put on the computer. Ever stop to think that the MyWay Search bar is a moneywinner? I have seen mention in other posts about trial versions being put on for profit. Advertising is by far the larger cut of such profits and can easily account for $50-100 price cut on a unit. Why would an open box be more expensive? No advertising revenue.
Maybe if Dell was able to get enough sponsers I could get a computer for free - and then wipe it and throw a distro of my choice on.
I realize that they aren't generally designed to be hidden, but I often get more frustrated with the number of user names which I have to remember. Sure I would like to maintain a consistent account name across all services but there is always some 'jerk' who parks on my preferred username. Some sites are beginning to wise up to the situation and including a "mail me my username" option. Writing all my usernames on paper is unrealistic and a single sign-on system, internet wide, is infeasible. Logon overload is certainly a realistic problem as registration becomes required on more and more services. Hopefully logon's will not become so prolific that I will need a username to Google search. Am I the only one who is finding this?

Then this goes quite well to increase the amount of penetration in XP SP2. Not by the number of installs but in the number of exploits.

Frankly someone walking away from a live terminal is more dangerous. That's when an "honest" person, or someone with good intentions will make a mess.

This goes extremely well with my solution to the overheating problem:
I suggest that correct this problem that you transform your "XBox" into the form it should have originally been in:
1) Buy MicroATX case (with powersupply)
2) Rip apart XBox
3) Rebuild your computer. err XBox.
Done Right?
and I suppose:
4) Install Linux and stop buying those ridiculously priced games.

Naaa, too far fetched.

Vapourware indeed. In fact, I hear it is to be included in Duke Nukem Forever.
