if you count the IPod, it does. Easily.Not only that... their trying to ban them from their new operating system (Longhorn)You know Microsoft had to ban them in their corporate headquarters right?
I'd believe it....
and they have to know that people like me and others will find a way to hack it or get some 3rd party software to make it work....
They're just putting in a good corporate security feature, since it's easy to steal data with storage devices getting as small as they are. My current 1 GB USB key is smaller than an early 90s 1 MB memory chip.
Did you actually read your link? These devices can be used to take data off of computers:
"MICROSOFT is working on technology that will give companies more control over whether to prohibit devices that can easily be used to transfer data to and from personal computers."
The technology is due to appear in next version of Windows, dubbed Longhorn, due out in 2006. As devices including Apple's popular iPods become capable of holding more data, some worry that people could use them to steal data or unleash virus attacks on business networks.
No, Microsoft is not banning anything - more MacReactionary nonsense
Well, turnabout is fair play. Apple isn't exactly known for cooperating with anyone.
