>but it took a whole minute to boot up (Win-NT)

Wow - my w2k server takes about a minute to even start loading windows. It spends half that time giving me copyright info about the 2 different sets of RAID controllers that I'm not using.

It's easily 5 minutes before I can type something into Word - and that doesn't include connecting to the domain controller.

Nearly 30 years my BBC micro with wordwise in Rom started in about the time it took the screen to turn on

Numerous paper's on ross's page

>because there is nothing written down to refer to as a 'base

Except for 1000 years of legal precedence

Canada just stopped doing this to juvenile offenders this year!

Although it did stop doing it to RCMP recruits in the 70s

If the secret that they lost got out - wouldn't it harm the morale of US forces from the south?

and therefore treason

Presumably somebody is now going to be charged with rape - for releasing classified US army information

2 decades earlier they prosecuted people who reported ATM losses for fraud - because ATMs were perfectly secure.

If one of the smartest computer security guys was prepared to do all this work and throw lots of expensive experts (well grad students) at finding your bugs - would you:

1, Send developers to all their seminars to learn something

2, Buy them drinks

3, Sue them

Take the distribution for any other religion and only include those who live in a few major east coast cities. So include 'christians' who are executives in NY but ignore all the ones pumping gas in the mid-west.

Then leave out the less succesfull ones who don't identify themselves as part of that group.

No - with current policies you are only letting in people with very highly paid jobs.

It's like claiming that flying first class makes people hungry for success - because everybody that arrives by first class is rich

Because there haven't been generations of poor Hindu immigrants who are now working in gas stations. Hindu immigrants are all fairly recent and with current immigration policies only professors and bankers are likely to get in.

For example the Japanese community in the UK is tiny, almost all are senior execs of Japanese merchant banks or electronics companies - so average income is probably $250k. But in San Fransisco there are lots of poor 3-4 generation Japanese kids. It doesn't mean that there is anything better about the UK for Japanese immigrants

Not really thinking creatively though.

Why replace children in a chinese sweatshopa earning 80c an hour with prisoners being paid $1 hour. Wouldn't it be more profitable to replace people being paid $1000/hour with prisoners at $1/hour?

Imprison the bankers, have them continue to work from prison for $1 - use profit to pay off national debt.

Almost all trade deficits are deceptive. in general imports are very carefully monitored - since they are taxed - while exports, especially invisible earnings, are very approximate.

Until recently the US measured exports purely in tonnage and then averaged their prices. So a ton of wheat = a ton of Windows DVDs

They did follow due process. An industry body bought off some politicians who passed a law making attacks on their business model a matter of national security.

That's been standard procedure since at least 1776
