WebTV, haha! Someone brought one to me a few months ago that they bought at a garage sale for $50. He wanted me to show him how to use it. After I finally got through the laughter and explained to him how worthless it was, he promptly took it back to the garage sale and somehow managed to get his $50 back.

You must REALLY hate Apple then...

By that logic, all gun manufacturers are guilty of murder.

My daily commute is less than 2 miles - that would last me a week! Count me in!!!

Additionally, it is trivial to forge email headers. There are only two ways to verify email headers: matching them up with the headers of emails at the other end of the correspondence or by comparing them to server logs, neither of which is likely to exist any longer. With or without header information, the email cannot be verified at this point anyway.

The RIAs and MPAs of the world don't equate this to bootlegging, they equate it to theft. In the offline world, at least in the US, both seller and purchaser of stolen goods are criminals.

Pyramid Dipping.

I just hope that Microsoft didn't learn anything from HP's blunder and goes on to fail and sell the remaining stocks at $99-$199 in a firesale.

Analogy fail. You absolutely can travel to Europe, or almost anywhere for that matter, for free .

Just to be clear...

You're going to take a picture of the picture on your PC monitor with your phone, then you're going to drive to an internet cafe to put the picture in an email (presumably) to yourself, then drive back home again to save it?

If this is what it would take for you to defeat this, then I'd say the joke's on you.

It seems so. I've also heard rumors of Mr. Wen joining the firm.

You lost as soon as you bought the Kindle. You helped them recover some of the cost of manufacture instead of letting them lose it all on an unsold device.

The only way to fight "the Man" is to not buy the man's garbage and get other people to do the same.

So don't buy it. You're simply stupid if you buy something that does what you don't want it to do. Until the majority stops opening their wallets, this crap isn't going to stop.

Zip ties use the same principle as handcuffs and a shim is equally as effective. If you're going to bash Timothy, you should at least try not to look like an idiot.

Considering Firefox is one of the most horribly leaky add-ons anyone could install into Windows, I guess you're right.

I only keep Firefox installed anymore to remind me of why I'm using Chrome. When Chrome starts acting up, I fire up Firefox and visit a couple websites just to refresh my memory.
