"I currenrly have my DVR, my Xbox, and my reciever all in a stereo cabinet with a closed door. All work fine with no overheating. Is Sony trying to say that if I want to get a PS3 I need to buy a new stereo cabinet too?"
No, Sony is saying that you can get rid of everything else in the stereo cabinet, because remeber, the PS3 is an entertainment system, not a console
If YouTube was ever taken down due or changed to litigation, all YouTube would have to do is make an announcement as to why, and instantly millions of YouTube addicts with no prior knowledge of the People vs. **AAs will suddenly hate the **AAs.
> Disagree. There just isn't enough momentum for people to be bothered hacking these, IMHO.
I disagree with your disagree. Jon Lech Johansen of DeCSS fame is guaranteed to try hack the blu-ray/hd-dvd encryption. His goal is for a Winter 2006-2007 release of DeAACS. And you must remember, DVD Jon is not some one time hacker, as you can see by his long list of credentials
Its true about the gaming industry's adaptation away from copy protection. Hell, look at what happened to StarForce. The copy protection got so out of hand that its (rumored to have) caused damage to hardware. What happened then? Fan boycott of any game that had starforce. Result: Ubisoft and several other major game publishers dropped the starforce contracts and released patches to remove the protection because they realized that they were losing money from over the top copy protection.
Sure things like SecuRom and SafeDisk are still out there, but at least they dont destroy your hardware. You can have copy protection to protect IP, but take it too far and upset the consumer past that fine line (as the **AA is doing) and the consumer shows you just how upset they are. THATS natural law.
"Solitaire/minesweeper/Sudoku or the occasional "why don't you go home early" often translates to a refreshed and more productive employee tomorrow."
So true. I'm lucky enough to have a boss that realizes this to the point where him and myself play a round of Worms 2 at least once a week, and we've never missed a deadline for an project.
A friend of mine that works at Nerve Software tells me that they just invert the colors to make it a white cross on a red background. It avoids the issue, not many people notice, and they havent been bothered by the Red Cross since.

You're the moron! We're not talking about the bicyclist! He was one of the worlds greatest trumpet players! Moron.
Yeah, but doesn't that broken toaster count as an e-meter?

Now there is nowhere left to go. We've traveled as far as we can. There is no more land for new countries.
We can just go to the moon! After all, it does have an abundant food source, what with all the cheese.
