Why steal the hardware? That is nickel and dime. Now they can learn to steal on a whole new level and in more lucrative and less risky way.

Good thing I wasn't drinking, yet.

And that should be second behind any Monsanto GMO crap.
Not free, but flat rate and cheap.
Got any citations for this generational shift? None of the kids I know do that, they all want huge honking flat panels. On the other hand, I do most of my watching on my 4 inch Droid smartphone or 7 inch Samsung tablet. And I'm closer to 60 than 50.
And Netflix loves to send their version of the DVD that has all the cool extras stripped out.
Rule 3b: Don't buy ANYTHING from Lexmark.
Regardless of any quality they may or may not have, this company needs to be permanently black-listed for starting that whole DRM chipping nonsense.
We are talking politicians here. What else do you expect? Unless, of course, they don't want to tax your out of state driving.
Although, I suspect that they are more interested in being able to track your movements. "You drove for 1 hour on a road with a speed limit of 55. Yet you went 70 miles. Here is your speeding ticket. Pay up."
Right. Old people that still think it is 1995 are the only ones still using Facebook.

My kids ( early 20s ) didn't even notice as they moved on from the site last year. They wouldn't be caught dead on what they call an 'old people site'.
For example, Kodak built up their brand by making decent cameras and film. Then they destroyed it by selling chinsy shit cameras under the Kodak name as a last ditch effort to keep afloat.
You had me until this nugget. Kodak always sold inexpensive or 'chinsy shit' cameras. Do you remember the Brownie? The problem for Kodak was that their core business; film, chemicals and paper went the way of the buggy whip. Some of us still use film, but most photography is done digitally. And the camera business as a whole, including digital, is in a massive slide as fewer and fewer folks buy stand-alone cameras, opting instead to use their camera phone.
Really? That's like using Slashdot polls for something important. Non-story.
The government is good for two and only two things; stealing ( taxes ) and killing ( starting war ). Maybe if the government shuts down, instead of doom and gloom, we will see an era of prosperity and peace.
And I suspect that someone circumventing Apple's cable DRM can use this case as a precedent;
As everyone know the US goverment has created laws that forbid anyone to publicly admit that they inserted backdoors into the code.
Could I get a citation please.
Remember to say hello to your bank teller.
