faire fermer les accès d'un certain nombre de newsgroups pour ses
abonnés. Véritable alternative au P2P pour récupérer des fichiers
(légaux ou non), les newsgroups sont de plus en plus populaires, y
compris pour le piratage.
Jusqu'à présent, Free autorisait l'accès aux newsgroups où bon nombre
de fichiers illégaux circulent. Mais suite à une plainte et à une
demande de suspensions de l'Alpa (Association de Lutte contre la
Piraterie Audiovisuelle), le FAI a du suspendre, sans condition,
l'accès à ces newsgroups (aux noms assez évocateurs : cartoons.french,
documentaries.french, movies.divx.french, series.tv.divx.french,
series.tv.french, dvd.french, hdtv.french, spectacles.divx.french...)
pour une durée de 30 jours. Fermeture qui pourrait se prolonger et/ou
s'étendre à d'autres newsgroups. Elle pourrait également marquer
l'ouverture d'un bal judiciaire contre ces mêmes newsgroups...
Mais ces fermetures, qu'elles soient temporaires ou non, semblent
aussi faire le bonheur des prestataires privés. Ainsi, des services
comme Giganews, qui permettent à n'importe quel internaute (moyennant
finance) d'accéder à l'ensemble de ces newsgroups, se frottent les
mains.
Pour attirer le chaland, le service Giganews affiche ainsi une offre
promotionnelle pour les internautes de Free comme on peut le voir sur
cette page qui propose : « une offre 10 Go sur 3 jours gratuite pour
l'ensemble des nouveaux clients francophones qui s'inscrivent avec
leur adresse @free.fr ou @proxad.net », « l'opération séduction » ne
fait que commencer !
Simply put the island on the left is Canada and the small one on the right is United States. The small island contains the backyard of the house on the larger island. The bridge connecting the backyard to the house is thus the smallest international bridge in the world. 
Its time for all the game-addicts to rejoice! HP has finally announced the Blackbird 002 gaming machine. It is supposed that HP Blackbird 002 PC was designed with two goals in mind. Primarily, to bring innovation back to the gaming PC by delivering extreme customer-centric innovations and secondarily to completely reinvent the look and feel of the performance PC. Inspired by the gaming pioneers Voodoo, it is definitely not the types that you'd want to hide it under your desk. It commands attention from every angle. It's a pure gaming machine that rejects conventional PC design in favor of an aggressive, dynamic appearance that seems to defy the laws of physics. The system comes with no pre-installed software because gamers like it that way. Since gamers also prefer configurable machines, the case can be opened with a swinging door. You can configure the machine at a special web site where you can choose the type of memory, graphics cards, hard drives, and processors from either Intel or Advanced Micro Devices. look for more detailed pics ......... 
As Stewie would say 'What the Deuce', by now you must have known my love for 'Family Guy', I just finished posting about the the new 
If we go by the details on the Czech news site Idnes, then here is the shot of the ROKR U9 that looks like the PEBL and has a crafty LCD display, vibration-feedback touch controls on the outside as the RAZR2. It will feature 25MB of internal memory to support the microSD card slot, and will probably only have EDGE support for Internet access. Though the specs of the internal display and keypad are unknown up till now but we can expect the details to get official when it releases. The launch will most likely happen sometime soon involving a US launch followed with Asian and European versions.
