[Dev-C++] Some more notes about Longhron/Palladium

[Ioannis V. <iv...@em...>]

According with the current preliminary info Longhorn will have 3 GUI
options. Full use experience, medium user experience, and the current 2D
style GUI stuff for older machines.

Palladium will not search your mp3s so as to check them (although in a =
sense
media player is currently already doing it). Palladium safeguards what
information is sent to the internet so as to protect your privacy, or =
what
software you are running according to the user's criteria. That is if =
the
sender sends you an mp3 file and specifies it to not be copied to a cd =
or to
be forwarded to someone else, you will not be able to do it. If you send =
an
email and specify it to be erased after 3 days, it will happen.

In a sense, the sender and the receiver must both agree. Nothing you do =
not
agree will not happen in your PC. That in theory of course.


I find it difficult that someone out there will not have modified =
hardware,
but it will be more difficult to do  bad things than what it is now. =
That
said, I think that the cat and mouse run will keep going, that is new
security measures will be added while the old ones will be getting
circumvented.

Even XBOX  with high security measures in hardware level was cracked, =
and
even Linux can run on it.


That's all for now, I am getting to my VC++ .NET book now.
