Why do people always spout BS like this and show their ignorance? Mac OS X *is* inherently safer. You have to be a major league Windows zombie not to know and accept that. Having said that, I wouldn't be surprised if the first few trojan horses that effectively target OS X fooled a lot more Mac users, because they simply aren't educated in such things, on average. Informed people owe it to them to remind them that there are plenty of entities on the internet that mean people harm, and it's best to avoid helping them hurt you.

"If the current versions of Mac OS X or Linux commanded 95% market share they would have far more problems with security than Windows XP or Vista."

This is the kind of ignorance I'm talking about. Security was tacked on to Windows as an afterthought. Security was a prime directive in the creation of Unix. That fundamental difference makes OS X inherently more secure. Windows has holes by nature. OS X has (far fewer) holes because it grew from a platform that is secure by design.

As a taxpayer, I'm happy Mr. Graham took it on himself to inform the public of the clear and present danger _even_more_socialism_ threatens.

So, what did you LEARN? I read it, and I didn't learn anything, except that you have friends who run something called FriendFeed and felt the need to pimp it.

Waste of time. Thanks!

You reminded me why I hate lawyers. If a strategic partner names one of their widgets on your trademark and it in fact leverages the product with the trademark, you are clearly winning. That partner is embedding your trademark in their product, making it more difficult to remove it later as a design decision. This strengthens the partnership and the association of your product with the utility of the widget. It's all good. If the partner suddenly renames the widget or allows the widget to do something else, then you better get on the stick, because the partnership is in trouble.

What you all need is Azureus so you can share your flicks right at the TV. MacSurfer pointed to an article today for another brand device that has bittorrent software built in.

Also, what might be cool is if the tiny new Apple bluetooth keyboard could be made to work with it, using a dongle.

BiB, filmar, EAF: Perhaps you should give us your addresses. Zeiler was never after blood, but if you want blood, we can arrange that plenty of yours is spread around. The premeditated spilling of blood is what the suspension is designed to stop, but if you want it, spill your own.

Seems too many comments in this forum are abusive, obscene, and/or threatening...the league punished Zeiler, and more blood is not the way to continue.
