While other companies like Asus and Dell are offering customers weak underperforming netbooks and media centers, Apple knows what the averager person wants. Just like getting a Hemi in your new Dodge, this is going to be the killer laptop and desktop at a premium price. Sure, the few CEOs and executives out there are going to get even more expensive servers for their personal needs but the poor McDonalds employee is going to save up their money to get these kinds of machines. And when it comes to sales that spells volume for Apple and an equation for guaranteed success.

Dell and Asus are going down.

Time after time it's been proven that the safest security is the security that is shrouded in the most mystery. Why can't anyone hack Windows 7? Because it's new and no one knows how it works. People like Ormandy are a bane to the community because they steal code from Microsoft (there is no other way they could know about these flaws) and then once they stolen it, they release it for virus writers to hurt the common man. They are a public enemy and I'd suspect he has contacts inside Microsoft (if you're reading this Steve Ballmer, I suggest you begin purging those who doubt you and those closest to you).

I cannot believe Google would show support to someone who is most obviously a criminal aiding and abetting other criminals.

Nobody wants their source code shown to malware writers for obvious reasons so let Microsoft have its privacy. Why do individuals get privacy rights but not Microsoft? Did you ever stop to think about that? No, you didn't, because you were too busy helping the bad guys.

You should never reveal a security flaw. It's called common sense about saftey and protecting everyone around you.

It's the people below the poverty line who don't work and aren't productive enough that are to blame for Hollywood's plight. Not the rich accountants and brilliant producers that carefully select only the most qualifying of movies. It is obviously getting to the point where our culturual heritage -- the heritage of Americans -- in film needs to be conserved by the government. Which is why movies like Harry Potter should be able to apply for and be granted a government bailout when they finish in the red. It's obvious that the economy has hit them hard and they need a little help. With the file sharers and ripoff dupes in the world taking away their copyright, this is the only way we can help them out until a solid and sane prosecution framework like ACTA is approved for the whole world.

My thoughts and prayers are with Hollywood and the families of everyone involved with such quality original films.

Glenn Beck was right about you! When he has his speech on the anniversary at the same place that Martin Luther King Jr. gave his "I Have a Dream" Speech then you'll see the light!

Okay so I'm the lead Microsoft certified developer at a Fortune 500 company. I have to get this crappy software integrated with our project that is running as a Win32 application by the end of the month and so I downloaded the packages and dragged and dropped them into Microsoft Visual Studio. Then I created a VB file that basically calls SciPy.getSECReport(somedata) and nothing happens. I get some "Error Method or data member not found" even though the stuff I downloaded was unzipped and dragged right into the rest of my libraries in my WIN32 directory.

Oh and I also tried double clicking the packages and nothing happens ... as well as dragging and dropping the excel files onto the packages (I'm not an idiot, I've tried everything). I even went to SourceForge to find documentation on this crap and there is nothing. Nothing! Can someone help me figure this crap out? It's impossible to use, the open source nuts have made it so it isn't streamlined and integrated with Windows. I mean, I'm a pretty talented hacker (MSCD and everything) and this just goes to show how crappy open source can be.

Will someone please rewrite this in Visual Basic so I can do my job?
