    One of todays news items: http://www.codeproject.com/News/22816/NSA-has-total-access-via-Microsoft-Windows.aspx[^] :wtf: Seriously, it has been 14 years already? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NSAKEY[^]

    _NSAKEY was a variable name discovered in Windows NT 4 Service Pack 5 (which had been released unstripped of its symbolic debugging data) in August 1999 by Andrew D. Fernandes of Cryptonym Corporation. That variable contained a 1024-bit public key.

      I would put it this way : "Hackers have total access via Microsoft Windows since the release of Windows 95."

                I used to have a copy of PCMag with a lengthy preview of Windows 96 or 97 in it. Unfortunately when I was cleaning I forgot that's why I was saving the issue and tossed it about a decade ago.

                Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason? Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful? --Zachris Topelius Training a telescope on one’s own belly button will only reveal lint.

                  So I'm not crazy in thinking the whole thing sounds stupid? Good to know.

                          CP/M still alive? My goodness! Where can I buy a copy for 64 bit hardware? Wrote my first embedded program on this system in the early 1980s. (Yeah, I've been around a while.) Too bad their management was so arrogant when IBM was looking for an operating system when they designed the PC back in that late 1970s. CP/M drove IBM straight into the warm, welcoming arms of a nerdy Bill Gates. You can play interesting "what if" games in your mind: What if CP/M was a little more humble and IBM chose them over a new, unknown upstart called Microsoft? :confused:

                            Actually, I was being a bit facetious, though I would still be running TPM ( a superior variant of CP/M ) and ValDocs[^] if I could. :-D
