This is *not* a Fourth Amendment issue, because the police were able to get a (supposedly) valid warrant from a judge. Thus it was a proper search. This is, rather, a First Amendment issue.

Hence the old UNIX error "/dev/lp0: on fire" ...

And Sandberg, I believe, went to "how to ghost write lousy pseudo-feminist books" camp.

Kid hates computers? Send her to a $1000/week camp that will teach her to hate computers even more. Boy, it must be nice to be rich and from Silicon Valley.

Where's the "like" button on this thing?

Interesting. So are you saying that if a person's last name ends with the letter "s", that person needs an apostrophe in his last name?

For example, Brian William's?

Good to know. Thank you.

Huh. You're right. The commercials I saw led me to believe it worked in concert with your Wii, rather than being its successor. Mea culpa.

So no, you're talking out your rear end. How about some authoritative information?

Don't know where you got that idea, but I've had mine more than two years and the only time the red LED has ever lit up is when the console has lost power. Is this info in the manual somewhere?

Huh. I was fully expecting someone with a four-digit UID (or, perhaps even one of the rarely-seen three-digits) and bitchslap me. C'mon guys...

...says the guy with a six-digit UID. Get off my lawn.

...and what exactly is the point? To separate the rich hedonists from a little more of their disposable income? I sure don't see those of us commoners being able to take "advantage" of such a ridiculous luxury.

Putting all your eggs in one basket is a poor business decision, and now you are reaping the rewards of that decision. Apple is not solely to blame here.
