i disagree, one of the benefits of the Palm is that it does not do the iTunes thing. Owning a piece of hardware should not require you to join a "special" club no matter how "cool" they make it seem. Palm apps have been available for a long time now from any number of vendors. The fact that many of the features the iphone has are "enhanced" features/specializations of previous palm/handspring devices is pretty funny when the fanbuoys begin gushing. If you want to join a special club to get access to specific content that should be your decision.
As I tell the people that have an ipod and an iphone when they ask me if their new computer should be a mac - 'Of course, you've already made the decision'. That's when they ask if they can have Word... sigh.
part of that is due to the MS/IBM colaboration on OS/2 before MS came out with Win3 and NT. From the colaboration MS got NT and IBM got OS/2 1.3. Balmer even called OS/2 "Windows PLUS" and MS insisted the future belonged to OS/2.

It also looks like their logo is prior art too. It must get REALLY lonely up there in Michigan. I wonder if their customers are automakers not paying their bills.

i thought Mr. Beckerman Esq. was just that Recording Industry Vs. The People It is my belief that he has become a very large boulder in their collective shoe.
realistically, she is afraid the Linksys BEFSR41W made in 2001(firmware circa 2002), which they do not have the password to, "might" be "taken over" (snicker), and they would lose their "routes"... they would also lose the High encryption (WEP -- double teehee), wireless connection they use.
Of course they do, it's just that if they don't do as NSA says, then they don't get to continue to rebuild their monopoly. It be Bidness, and the constitution gets in the way of Bidness.

Really? What about the people who either don't have a computer or no internet access that were sued by the RIAA? Why were they sued/threatened/extorted? What's happening is the bully in the schoolyard has gotten very greedy, and now all the kid's he's been stealing lunch money from have decided to beat his ass. I welcome our new ASSBEATING Overlords.
Not at all obvious, obviosity is in the hole of the behinder. First off, real estate "professionals"== car salesmen. Second, they do not have "ideas", they, like micrososft, buy or steal them. Third, this holding company is a team of Douchebags, that is nothing but a front for patent trolling. Fourth invokes the LouisCK law: They must suck a bag of dicks.
These guys are some of those that sit around all day dreaming of ways to get rich off of other peoples work. If they invested half the effort into actual work they would be on an island somewhere spankin it on the beach.
I read your post, laughed so hard I fell off my chair, hit my head on the corner of the filing cabinet and am now dead. My co-worker came into my cubicle to see what the noise was read your post, began to guffaw slipped in my blood and put a pencil through his temple - dying instantly. I hope you're happy now.!!!
The teacher,(she was a substitute), was told to leave the computer on - attendance and what-not, MOST PEOPLE (apparently you included), don't understand the internet and spyware/malware so to expect her to know how to thwart a batch of popups, is just idiotic. Like expecting your baker to defend you in a murder trial. She was a SUBSTITUTE - any school that has children in it with computers connected to the internet HAS TO have a filtering tool in place - if they do not then they should not have the computers connected to the internet to begin with. Content filtering software was not functioning in the that school/district, WHY? And why are they not getting hauled before a court?
Ethically stalwart? That kind of decision is not up to the teachers let alone a substitute - all those decisions are made by District administrators and board members. Why are you not calling for their heads? The teacher carries no power - they are told what to do as an employee of the district. The teacher is a tool like the text book, actually in this day and age the teacher is only there to enforce the textbook.
Nice district by the way - I wonder if they now have content filtering?
Makes you wonder how many scriptkiddies from the local school district own the police network, and for that matter the DA's office. I believe his opening statement was "Give up us the bomb. All your base are belong to us."
The state will increase it's IT staff (more geeks who will likely usurp their bandwidth doing what they are paid to stop:D ), to monitor the traffic of sororitys, frats and dorms. This really shows that neither the RIAA-MPAA nor the legislature knows what they are doing. It's kind of like letting the legislature vote on their own pay raises.
Now I realize that not ALL the IT staff will be anti-dmca but the possibilities make the mind wobble. Where do I send my resume?
you would be VERY surprised to find out just how many people put their very real info in EVERYWHERE and how many use their bank pin number as their password... everwhere... the mind wobbles.
it is one thing to be forced into submitting your personal info for purposes of data aquisition and quite another for you to do it because you want the entire world to know just how important it is that YOU CAN HAS CHEESEBURGER! Sigh...

Jesus Cunt Punching Christ! Can't you fuckin' people find something worthwhile to waste the cocksuckin' taxpayers money on?
I have a system where I only work 6 half days.... 12hrs each day... sigh.
I welcome our new ASCII overlords, wait, it's New York Magazaine, I welcome our new AXCII overlords.
You can go check out and download the firmware at the Italian Universita' Degli Studi Di Brescia
Woulnd't that make it Fermi-ware?

So wait, they are admitting that all the remaining Vista installs were infected by this malware?
part of that is due to the MS/IBM colaboration on OS/2 before MS came out with Win3 and NT. From the colaboration MS got NT and IBM got OS/2 1.3. Balmer even called OS/2 "Windows PLUS" and MS insisted the future belonged to OS/2.

just for clarity - was that your comment or your sig?
Can i use if for my sig? AHAHAHAHAHAAHAAHAHHA
That is possibly the best comment I have ever read.
