Joyce Posted July 13, 2004 Share Posted July 13, 2004 The fear is that the gadgets can be used to siphon information from a computer, turning a seemingly innocuous device into a handy tool for data thieves. "With USB devices, if you plug it straight into the computer you can bypass passwords and get right on the system," RAF Wing Commander Peter D'Ardenne told Reuters :stunned: :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Professor Peedston Posted July 13, 2004 Share Posted July 13, 2004 Could they just add more security to the USB ports? :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

busybeeburns Posted July 13, 2004 Author Share Posted July 13, 2004 should I still think in buy some of those?.... :dozey: would you make enough use of it to justify spending $300 now, or wait until internet mp3 downloading reeeeally kicks in and these things cost 10 a penny?

Joyce Posted July 13, 2004 Share Posted July 13, 2004 I guess I´ll wait! :dozey: ....:sneaky: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gas_Man Posted July 14, 2004 Share Posted July 14, 2004 i don't want internet downloading to start...(says me)... :sneaky: :dozey: I don't like the thought of music as data...i like cds, and booklets, and special editions, and vinyls etc... Even though i have a hefty jail sentence amount of mp3s on my computer, i still always buy the cds of the bands i would have without the internet, plus, i buy more by artists i'd never have heard of.. the thing after iPods are 1cm squared cubes of data, that can fit a gigabyte of information on...and by the time they come out, they'll probably be able to hold a lot more.

Professor Peedston Posted July 14, 2004 Share Posted July 14, 2004 Damn straight! I'll take my unwieldy collection of cd's and 25-year-old used vinyls over an iPod any day. :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
