  1. Re:That makes 3... on Thunderbird in Crisis? · · Score: 1

    you can obviously forward messages from other accounts to your gmail account (or let it fetch them for you). that's what I do, I use only gmail and check all my email addresses from there. I recently abandoned thunderbird: fresh install is much easier, no need for backups, or email on another computer is soooo great

  2. spain, join the club! on Spain Adds 'Copyright Tax' to Blank Media · · Score: 1

    so the sunny spain finally joins the countries with stupid men writing stupid laws about copyright infringement club! we have a similar regulation here in italy (introduced a couple of years ago), thus we pay taxes on CDs and DVDs as well (but not on hard drives nor flash memories). the worst part of the story is that this tax is about 2% of the cost of the media. i.e. if a blank DVD costs .30 euros, Joe Burner should pay it almost the same. to be generous, we can say .31 euros. actually, the price of a blank DVD here is about 1 euro (or more, approximation here)! when retailers go greedy... fortunately, geeks like me can easily buy blank media in germany online stores.
