A MAN IS CLAIMING TO BE SELLING a new and sealed copy of Windows XP 64 bit Edition on Ebay UK.

The bid has reached 99 pence so far, and he claims the software comes with its own unused product key.

The software, he claims, is only compatible with 64-bit Opterons or Athlon 64s, and won't work on Itaniums.

It might work on Prescotts if anyone can figure out a way to switch the 64-bitness of the Intel chips on.

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.
