So he isn't a fanatical neo-con...this is bad how?

Not 100% sure, but I believe any attempt to circumvent DRM technology, for any reason, is a violation of the DMCA.

Japan has 1Gbps internet. I had it when I lived there a few years ago. Even at 100Mbps we would be way behind.

I believe they tried by giving the telcos lots of tax breaks and money to improve the broadband network...but attached no strings to it, so the money just went to their exec bonuses and never went to the broadband network.

You are very wrong. "We are Legion" means more "We are many and we are one". It is a reference to the demon Legion in the bible.

Are you implying that the republicans are better than the democrats at balancing the national budget? Because to my knowledge the last time the national budget was balanced was under the Democrats, and the republicans under Bush and co. just added more and more to the national debt with their expensive and never ending wars in the middle east.

You apparently weren't in Japan in your visit to "Asia". Here is a hint: Asia is a very big place, with many different cultures.

Just a quick note: You try living in the middle of nowhere in Iowa where the roads are poorly plowed if they are plowed at all, and drive anything except a 4WD SUV or truck. You can join the rest of the people in the ditches on the side of the road.

All of those features required you to connect to Live at least once. Your console is back to the way it was when you got it other than your mods.

Blizzard required the person who made wowglider to pay them the money he had made off of their product, after he insulted them in every way he possibly could. They were unjustified how?

You do know that fox was sued, and the courts ruled that they are not obliged to tell the truth in their "news", right?

You have evidently never been to Japan, or even paid any attention to music in Japan. In Japan there are many places to rent cds, and it is pretty much a given that the people who rent them are going to rip the cd or copy it. This has quite a bit to do with the cost of cds in Japan. Although it is a bit of a chicken and the egg scenario...did cd costs go up because of this, or did high cd costs cause it?

Actually, I would think that a more split congress would result in [b]more[/b] pork as the party that introduced the bill has to bribe the members of the other party to support it by letting them put more pork in it.

Lets look at that site in detail.

Lets look at the footer of the page. This is the footer on every single page from asus.com and uk.asus.com

Does anyone see anything odd there?

Also, do a whois on asus.co.uk. While it does say that the owner is Asustek computer, it is registered as an individual, not a company, and was registered through a cheap registrar, and if you get the ip address is hosted through a regular web host, NOT asus's servers. Not at all suspicious

And I'm sure no one could possibly lie about their name when registering. Considering it was registered as an individual.
