8/12    Are there any precedent on lawsuits regarding copying a web site?
        The obvious stuff like logo are copyrighted.  But what about all
        other generic graphics and the javascript?  All those are freely
        downloadable.  I'm wondering if anybody ever got sued because they
        basically downloaded somebody's site and changed the logos and graphics
        and obviously the content a little.
        \_ ebay recently sued bidbay over this type of thing
        \_ legally dubious. But obviously wrong ethically. Why do it and
           cause trouble and bad karma for yourself or your business?
           Unless you are talking graphics like the blue dot or code that
           is readily supplied as example code, it would be inappropriate.
        \_ You're better than this.  Right?

7/25    What's up with that moving bit pattern that Win7 displays when it
        boots up?  (It's the one that's like in the Apple II days when you
        use the graphics memory for code or data while it's still in HGR
        mode.)  Is there a way to disable that?  It slows things down a lot
        every time I reboot my Win7 VM on my office machine if I RDP to the
        machine via DSL.  Thanks in advance.

11/24   What is the best 25-32" monitor out there? I am ready to upgrade
        my 9 year old CRT. -ausman
        \_ How much money are you willing to spend, and how good do you
           really need it to be good? Are you willing to pay $900 for the
           industry standard monitor used by graphics artists, or are you
           so cheap that you'll only want to pay up $400 for something that

1/19    Mirror's Edge review:  meh
        Great tech demo, not a very good game.
        \_ Agreed. Graphics and visual style were really, really good, but the
           plot was utter shit. The parkour was pretty fun, but in the end, all
           it really was was Parkour: The Game. --t

12/7    What kind of adapter do I need on my Thinkpad to drive that new 30"
        Apple Cinema display?
        \_ New? Well, though I didn't know there's a new model, I'm pretty sure
           that like the old one, you'll need something with Dual-link DVI, or
           if they moved to DisplayPort (or whatever its name was), you'll need
           that. Basically, with such a large monitor, it needs a lot of
