So, realizing that your competitors aren't going to lower their prices == collusion? Somehow, that doesn't seem fair to me. If it's purposeful, where they actually get together to do it ... fine, that's price fixing. But if everyone is just happy with the current price and realizes they don't have anything to gain by cutting the price down below their competitor's ... I don't see how that's illegal.

How is it self-serving? Keeping your employees from using non-internal storage services for confidential data... I guess that's self-serving in the "protect your assets/intellectual property" way, but forbidding your employees from using external companies for storage of confidential data is hardly self-serving. It's right up there with making your employees password and/or encrypt their work laptops... :)

Not only is this three times as much as the previous record, but also, it uses only one sixth of the hardware resources, according to a blog post about the test from Microsoft.

The important part is not that this is a new approach, but that they beat the previous record using less hardware.

Most police?

That would imply at least over 50% are totally cool with putting innocent people in jail. Do you know this for a fact, or are you just saying this because of highly publicized police corruption stories?

And yes, they exist and yes, some policemen are corrupt, liars, and brutal. But saying that most of them are seems remarkably speculative and extremely inflammatory.

The more they over-think the plumbing the easier it is to stop up the drain.
