I have more than enough email accounts around the world. Yahoo, for
instance, has many SMTP servers in other countries. I can use any one of
them. When the Yahoo.es SMTP server [located in the UK] crashed last
year, I used one of their other ones, like smtp.mail.yahoo.au, or use my
GMail or Lycos
Why should this be legal, any more than identity theft is?
It's "legal" if the name in question isn't trademarked, as Tom said.
If the USE of the name harms or injures the "famous person" then
it's on the injured party to seek remedy. Typically I believe that
intent would need to be proved.

I have no problem with this private indentifying information being held by
ICAAN or any other responsible party in case situations like this arise.
However I don't see the added value in this regard of having this
information made public to anyone. If a problem like this occurs, cannot

But the mac cases look so much better not doing it then any pc.

Yeah, I saw that, but no native shortcut. Heck, there are no less than 2
ways of doing this on a PC without waiting for the screensaver to kick in.
Just illustrating that Windows does this simple, yet very valuable, thing
out of the box and on a Mac, it's E*N*T*E*R*T*A*I*N*M*E*N*T.

I read this and thought no way...can't be. Looks like.
Shortest way seems to be to set up a icon in the dock to activate the screen
saver and have that lock the computer.

Not a great analogy. We are talking about people registering someone else's
name to presumably use for commercial benefit, including, in effect,
blackmailing them to pay to get a name that someone else has, as you say,
cybersquatted. Unless you can tell me some legitimate purpose for

Oh yes, the much vaunted Mac ease of use. 2 examples from this past week:
1 - I wanted to change the short name of the root admin, so that all of my
Macs had the same one. The consultant I used to deploy these used several
different short (and long) names, bless them. I wanted to change it as I

You've got the whole concept of a removable drive wrong. You don't install
the OS to the removable, only your data.
At this point you're playing with fire, as I don't think the 2nd install is
going to come off nearly as easy as you think it is. If there's any
important data on that drive, I'd just
