Comment Weekly updates? Still not enough. (Score 1) 242

I've often encountered companies who run windows updates on a weekly or bi-weekly basis, thinking this will be enough. It is not. And not to promote the idea of the lazy IT worker (though I consider myself to be one), but situations like this truly do require a machine-by-machine check. So all you folks out there who rely on Saturday night updates, well, you might want to do a quick check on that.

Submission + - Montana Store Has No Problem With Used CDs

hendrix2k writes: "As we saw in kdawson's submission on May 7th, some states are taking great measures to keep people from burning CDs and selling them used. In Missoula, Montana, however, one record store has no problem with selling an album, letting you burn it, then paying half price for the "used" CD. From the article:

It's a simple policy, really: Standard computer software allows the owner of a CD to copy (aka "rip") to the computer hard drive a CD's tracks, which can then be copied to another recordable CD ("burned") and played, uploaded to any variety of MP3 players — or given to a friend. You then take the CD back to Budget within two days, and you'll get half of what you bought it for in cash.
