Re: For Microsoft, antipiracy is a naked baby

Thanks - I don't suppose there's anything anyone can do about the Ballmer thing? It's really the revolver with one bullet time, isn't it?
I - LOVE - THIS - COMPANY!!!

Re: For Microsoft, antipiracy is a naked baby

I do - RFIDs have been known to interfere with hospital equipment. They can't just start embedding them into DVDs without *major* repercussions the first time that a critically ill patient on semi-life support tries to watch his favorite movie on a portable DVD player only to have his LS system crash....
