From the eschewing of media at soldier repatration ceremonies to the introduction of a Canadian DMCA, I have started to surmise that Harper is one of those fallocrats who is totally out of touch with his citizenry. Now, before you Harper-loving people start saying "But... but... but... the Bern convention requires this sort of thing". I ask you, when was the Bern convention signed. In my mind there is no coincidence that all these "harmonizations" are going on under Mr. Creepy-eyes reign. This is just one more sign of the coming North American Union .
I am currently using the woefully bloated and confusing 64 bit Vista beta. Y'all seem to have not brought this point up- currently the driver support for the 64 bit side of things, well it keeps me on my Fedora partition. My X-fi has been relegated to 200 dollar PCI decoration (yes I followed the attempt to install "unsigned" drivers method). So what is the point in having full HD if you can't have more than stereo sound? Call me paranoid but, perhaps MS's greater MPAA/RIAA Conspiracy is to destroy all media playback from their OS that isn't via crappy "signed" products. There's an even darker facet of this signatory hell that is native to "X64" Vista. Installing "unsigned" software often does not simply require clicking "allow" in three or four dialogue boxes, it requires accessing the special boot menu (F8) and selecting "allow unsigned software to run". Might I add this does not work all the time. Recently I've switched to a single LCD monitor capable of displaying 1920x1080 resolution, I am going to be damn irate when I try to watch something that wont cause pixel interpolation; only to see that because whatever product it is is not signed, I get a nasty dialogue box. I have to say, if RC1 is anything like this- let alone the "gold" version- I'll be one happy full time Linux user until I can justify one of them sweet Mac Pros.
