Hardware requirements: "I don't understand why everybody is crying about the requirements for running Windows Longhorn: The average PC is expected to have a dual-core 4 to 6GHz processor, a minimum of 2GB of RAM, a 1 terabyte hard drive, 1 gigabit Ethernet, and a graphics card that[base ']s three times as fast as the ones you can buy right now."

Disney's Cowardice Grows as Its Influence Shrinks: "Media concentration is often too easy a target. [...] Every once in a while, something happens to remind us that big, bad media is more bark than bite. This seems to be one of those cases. Disney is blocking Miramax from releasing Michael Moore's latest propaganda binge, "Fahrenheit 911." Is it because Disney is too powerful? No. It's because it's not confident enough to stand up against the possible threats of angering Republicans in Florida. [...] Don't worry. Moore's film, with all its corners cut and claims overblown, will find audiences regardless of the conflict between Miramax and Disney. Someone else will distribute it for profit." [Lessig Blog]
