This is completely wrong! Does displaying a bin of apples outside the
grocery mart turn the kids that grab one and run into criminals?

# I agree with Bob. Whoever wrote that about copy protection being
wrong....do you ever set the protection bits on your PICs so that no one
else can rip off your work?

On the subject of DVD, it seems to be just a vehicle for companies to make
pots of by breathing life into home entertainment sales by rehashing
(primarily) old shit. "Stick on a DVD, along with a cheesy "making of"
documentary (the sort that you would never have bothered to watch in the
first place) and hey presto"
