Michael, re:NO privacy on the Internet Another good quote (from General Macarther): "There is no security in this world. There is only opportunity" Greg.

Michael, RE:"Jim, I'll never forget the quote from SUN's CEO during all the "privacy infringement" talk surrounding Intel's chips a few months back. "There is NO privacy on the Internet, get over it". (or words to that effect) A pretty telling comment if you ask me. Of course with the biased media looking for any excuse to put a negative spin on Intel and Microsoft. That doesn't mean "Joe Surfer" can't be whipped into a frenzy of fear." It's not my intent to whip up a frenzy but I'm not sure if since there is no security on the internet that it justified to throw another possible security breech (Intel PSN) in the fray. A lot of people get upset about it. Especially after the last two days of cyber attacks... One fear might be that someone will attack all the computers with Intel chips with PSNs... OTOH, I agree, the best way to look at it is that there is no security on the net and try to protect yourself as best you can short of not using the net. Jim
