In Opera's implementation, the author does not specify the size of the output medium or where page breaks go. The browser will automatically lay out the content it finds room for given the constraints of the device. If there isn't room for all the content, new pages will be created. These can be accessed with PgDn/PgUp, gestures, or by controls added through JavaScript.

True, is possible to split content into pages by way of JS. And JS libraries mean that not everyone have to write that code. But I challenge you to write a script that emulates the kind of layouts we are seeing here: http://people.opera.com/howcome/2011/gcpm/ss Each row is a series of pages from the same article.

PgUp/PgDown in a scrolled view will often cut of text at the top/bottom. In many cases, pages will be more beutiful, and more readable. Of course, if you prefer to use a scrollbar, you will be allowed to. Just set '* { overflow: visible } in your personal style sheet.

The nature of computer system penetration (hacking) is that it takes a great deal of time and patience. The attacker will put a lot of effort into learning everything they can about the system and then more time in probing possible vulnerabilities.

Linux and Unix systems in general have a better underlying security model than Windows (e.g., the way root/administrator vs. user is handled). Unix architectures also had years of students attacking them (back before this was a serious crime). However, if those of us who are Linux fans are honest we know that the reason we don't have to worry as much about Linux attacks is that hackers target Windows because it is more pervasive.

The Greenhills operating system has never been exposed to a large group of people who are willing to spend a lot of time penetrating it. The idea that you can just label a system as secure seems questionable. You always get attacked via means that you didn't expect. What they're really saying is that the system implements a security model that they believe to be secure. But B1 bombers are not placed on the Internet protecting large amounts of money, so they are unlikely to attract hackers.

Ford sold Think in 2003. The unit Dean has been playing with is a new model produced within the last year. Here's the full story: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Th!nk_City

It actually looks quite normal in the latest Opera Weekly Build.

I'm not saying downloading Rome is right, just that HBO might more effectively spend their money finding a way to make the show available at a price and via a medium that the current pirates would buy.

HBO shows available at a price and medium that many current pirates would buy.

But you make a good point. I do ultimately see many content providers using alternate avenues of getting to content (see "Everybody Hates Chris" on Google video, for example). There's a lot of pitfalls, however--in addition to the overhead of setting up the machines to serve files, payment systems, and websites, you also have to make sure that people don't share the downloaded file that they've purchased, etc.
