No torrents are not illegal themselves. It should depend on what is referenced by them. You can use torrents to pull fully legal copies of linux distributions for example and there is absolutely nothing wrong with getting those. On Nov 4, 2012, at 10:38 PM, Shawn Krasniuk

Correct me if I'm wrong, Torrance themselves are not illegal. It is just what is contained in the torrent file you are downloading. Additionally, with the usage of proxy servers, virtual private networks, and magnet links. It is relatively difficult to track an individual downloading software,

Hi guys. Well, it's been two years now with my Mac and I've loved every moment of it, including the frustrating ones. Lol. But that's not what my subject is about. Last night, as I was catching up on almost 100 forum posts on SamNet, I read one of Mike Arrigo's forum posts about his Android

I listened to a few. Personally I find them a bit choppy and not as smooth as the voices you can get with the mac by default. Still, synthesized speech is one of the most subjective things in the blindness community, so to each their own, I say. On a practical note, I had trouble getting the

If memory serves me right, and this might have changed, but I recall someone saying that these voices do not work well with VoiceOver. If I am thinking of the same developer, there were promises that they were working on it, but I don't recall if this was these voices. Take Care John D.

Hi Chris. Yes, torrents are illegal, but as they say in wrestling, it's only illegal if you get caught, and the law is too concerned about other things to deal with people downloading software or movies. I shouldn't say anymore but you get the picture. Shawn Sent from my white Mac Book --
