Part of the reason for this is probably that p2p services have declined in quality with more spam on gnutella than ever and the younger ones who would do the p2p'ing not knowing how to use torrents (i've tried to help people use them often and for some reason they get confused about it) additionally, streaming services cut it for alot of people specially with the advent of apps like pandora. I personally replaced limewire with firefox+media download addon+grooveshark/similar sites. The download speed from such places is often far faster than p2p
This might also have been a good decision money-wise if someone else had found the bug but decided to save it for the pwn2own contest. Instead of risking getting $0 by being beat by someone else, he got a still respectable $1,337 relatively stress-free. (Note, I have no idea how small the chance that someone else had actually found the same bug and decided to save it for the contest is)
Yeah but in the context of mobile devices, Windows is pretty non-generic while "App" is a shortened version of Application and so is very generic in the relevant context.
Well part of the appeal of consoles is that you don't have to worry about minimum requirements or having to install special packages etc to play. just pop in the disc and go. Your suggestion would make a console about as desirable as a PC in that case if you'd have to upgrade every now and then. Also, developers would have to decide what hardware configuration to support, and that would still result in some increased development time, and it'd be quite a hassle for consumers if developers decided to develop only for the newest GPU/CPU combo for some reason.
This has been done by Fallout 3 and other games, I'm sure. Don't think it being in an iBook format is special enough to require a patent o.0
It means that the rootkit can establish a connection from the victim to the attacker and receive orders from him/her. Since it's TCP i'm guessing it can also connect to IRC and other services that use TCP rather than UDP or more obscure protocols.

As a 17 year old, I must agree with Eleannor or w/e on the fact that credit cards are often required to purchase things online. I would have loved to get TF2 and HL2 through steam when they were like $10 each, but I don't have a credit card and they require one, and my parents don't like using them online due to keylogger concerns (with which I agree). Sometimes access is restricted in such a way that acquiring it through legal means is simply not possible. another example, $100 "concrete mathematics" book, nvidia's gpu gems books...there's just no way my parents are gonna pay for that. although there's always getting a job...
