Mice? Mice, a desktop GUI, using both hands to type and using the mouse when needed? All stolen from Xerox bro. The smart phone existed before the iPhone with these things called IBM Simon came out in 1992, Palm, BlackBerry, and Windows all had smart phones out in the late 90s into the 2000s. Tablets all existed before the iPad sport. Dynabook concept in 1968 and Microsoft had a tablet PC available in 2001 with HP, Lenovo, and Acer all manufacturing models. And Microsoft coin the term tablet. I would give you that Apple is the one who innovated the mp3 player. but that is about it.

My offer is $100, but if your rock fails me, you must use some of that $100 to buy a wireless router to kill the Lion that ate me.

Difference there is that you are following her around and the porn viewer is staying put. I find it hard to correlate sitting and watching porn as harassment. The woman didn't want to see it, couldn't she just as easily move to a different computer?

As socially unacceptable, as well as creepy as this guy is it is his right to watch it. If he were beating it, it would be another story. I think this fits into the First Amendment even if it wrong. I think back to when I was a kid and the library had plenty of National Geographic magazine, anatomy and sexuality books all of which displayed nudity, will these be banned next in libraries. Granted nudity is different than pornography, but someone could just as easily be offended if someone is reading one of the books right next to someone else. Will these be the next to be banned? I could care less about whether or not you can watch porn in a library, but taking away part of the First Amendment because people might be offended is opening a can of worms.

I have my hard drive on my laptop encrypted and use a VPN for work all the time. I must be a terrorist. Or maybe I need these because I deal if I am troubleshooting an issue at a customer it is possible for me to have patient data on my computer. As well I have tons of company data on the laptop, including programs internal to the company. This just goes to show how poorly educated our government is on Information Technology.

Doesn't this fall under the first amendment, you know that one that talks about Freedom of Speech and those other rights that are getting taken away slowly. I mean the KKK does this all the time in their rallies and it is filled under freedom of speech, I am not approving the message in anyway, but I think that this is just another example where the Constitution is being ignored.

My Parents bought some ipods off of Ebay, I knew by looking at them they were fake and they also didn't work. My dad went through PayPal so they reimbursed him, but they did have him destroy the fake iPods and in the process. With something like this, I think it is viable to to know counterfeit and real, but with something like an antique, I would have said just return it or at least have it sent to an expert.

I think Novell is just grasping for straws. They are a dying company and have been fading out for quite sometime. I work at a large software company and out of all our customers only 2 use Novell and both plan to migrate off of it in the next few years because of compatibility issues with API calls and lack of support. Microsoft nor any company is required to make their system compatible with your software, that is your job as a software developer.
