A READER said he was staggering into the second to shortest day of the year in the northern hemisphere yesterday, when a radio ad made him think he was hallucinating.

HP was advertising an Athlon 64 Media Centre machine and during advert not only was AMD's chip mentioned three or four times, HP also mentioned the NX bit, described as "advanced antivirus" protection.

The idea being that you can all organise your multimedia gadgets and gizmoids without ever having to leave your couch.

The machine in question is here, a member of the m1050e series. µ

Authorities in several countries raided Megaupload recently, shut down all of its services, seized hundreds of servers and arrested several of its executives on criminal charges.

Do you think the move was justified?

Yes, companies should suffer an immediate death penalty upon being accused of copyright infringement.

Yes, the coppers said the company was breaking the law so it must be guilty.

No, the company and the people accused are innocent until proven guilty.

No, the company had millions of customers who have been harmed by having access to their data files cut off.

I don't care, I never used Megaupload anyway.
