i wish you the best of luck Stephen. i hope you don't give too much weight to the naysayers. and i'd ignore the cynics too. it's important to remember that those who try and fail still get more accomplished in their lifetimes than those who already *know* what isn't possible. :-)-Gwen7 (April 30, 2012, 01:03 PM)
I haven't done any research on tablets, but the overall mood in the air for me is that this is still the "luxury" market, with the same "ramp up" feel of PC's in the early 90's. I try to get value in my tech purchases that will last me for years, and the impression I get from the tablet buzz is that this is about one generation too early for lasting value.-TaoPhoenix (April 30, 2012, 05:45 AM)
So, that's what drew me in there instead of going with the "wait & see" attitude this time. I'm thinking of buying a Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 while I'm here in Seoul. They seem quite nice. (A friend has an 8.9, and it's slick.)-Renegade (March 03, 2012, 09:43 PM)
what's the advantage of buying in Seoul? are there any added features?-lanux128 (April 29, 2012, 07:38 PM)
I am looking at the transformer prime right now. It seems to have the best specs of current tablets. That said, I am not opposed to waiting a month or two. Would it be beneficial to wait right now? Are there any "killer new features" that are going to be available in upcoming hardware?-Josh (April 29, 2012, 07:15 AM)

Gibiru - Promoting a Free Uncensored Internet
Recently, the NSA has had major publishers remove "Alternative News" sites from search results that contain content on on the War in Iraq, Afghanistan and even Iran, US diplomatic and political scandals (like Wikileaks notorious cables), UFOs, even astro physics. Unfortunately, the government , major publishers and search engines are foreced to work closely to chill Internet discourse. America OnLine, Microsoft, Yahoo and others are slowly turning the Internet into an information superhighway dominated by barricades, toll booths, off-ramps that lead to dead ends and track you everywhere. This censorship is accomplished by geo-location filtering: the restriction or modifying of web content based on the geographical region of the user. In addition to countries, such filtering can now be implemented for states, cities, and even individual IP addresses.
Anonymity and Private Browsing
Gibiru Offers Users Private Browsing of Uncensored Seach Results. Gibiru is presently based on modified Google Search algorithm that limits tracking of your internet behavior and privacy thus removing behavioral search result filtering and censoring so that you get natural untargeted search results. Gibiru offers different levels of privacy depending on the browser that you use. The following table explains the difference in Privacy a Gibiru user can expect depending on the browser you are using. For Maximum Privacy Gibiru recommends Safari. We seriously discourage the Use of Chrome since it is a product developed by Google and the NSA. Protect Your Browsing Freedom and Set Gibiru as your Homepage.

Controversial online security bill CISPA is two steps away from becoming a law. Software freedom activist Richard Stallman says Internet users should beware, as the government is a much bigger threat than any individual hacker.
“What CISPA says as passed by the House of Representatives is any ISP, any website, any company that has some of your data in it can voluntarily hand it over to the government for a wide range of reasons,” and it's up to the government to interpret it however they see fit, the father of the free software philosophy explained.
“So if they see the slightest bit that they think is odd in your email, they can hand it over to the government. And if the government says it has something to do with national security – it is very easy to say that, whether it’s true or not – then the government can study it for any purpose. This nearly abolishes people’s right not to be unreasonably searched.”
When asked if Obama will go through with his promise to veto the bill, Stallman said that it's “unusual for Obama to stand for human rights,” but that he would be glad if the president does in fact veto the bill.

Basically this means CISPA can no longer be called a cybersecurity bill at all. The government would be able to search information it collects under CISPA for the purposes of investigating American citizens with complete immunity from all privacy protections as long as they can claim someone committed a "cybersecurity crime". Basically it says the 4th Amendment does not apply online, at all. Moreover, the government could do whatever it wants with the data as long as it can claim that someone was in danger of bodily harm, or that children were somehow threatened—again, notwithstanding absolutely any other law that would normally limit the government's power.
Somehow, incredibly, this was described as limiting CISPA, but it accomplishes the exact opposite. This is very, very bad.

The install did try to phone home, but my Windows 7 Firewall Control trapped that and I did not enable it.-IainB (April 26, 2012, 09:43 AM)
True, if you block the installer, you will not get the BetterInstaller adware, junk offers, Facebook script, etc. I still think you should include a warning about the installer in your review.-PhilB66 (April 26, 2012, 10:39 AM)

If I pull document properties with Adobe Reader 9 (of your attached copy), it says it can be viewed/printed with v7.0 or higher. Printing isn't restricted, editing is. I've seen the shrink to fit margin issue cause problems quite frequently. I really don't see a point in trying to "crack" an unlocked file.
How does the Reader Print to File option behave ... And what if any error messages are there?? Does it get stuck in the spooler...or does it just not do anything, and vanish?-Stoic Joker (April 26, 2012, 06:51 AM)
much appreciated, thanks!-kalos (April 26, 2012, 05:33 AM)
