    There is a myth round where I live that a McDonalds drive thru was closed down cos of a semen trace being found in a vanilla milkshake. Initially I believed it but then someone told me its an urban myth, to be honest I am not sure how anyone would spot jizz in the milkshake initially and then manage to prove that is what it was..... :&

    PlayStation loses chipping case

    PlayStation consoles have controls to counter game piracy

    Sony has lost a legal battle in Australia over the modifying of its PlayStation games console.

    The High Court has ruled that chipping the console so that it can play imported games does not breach copyright law.

     

    The ruling ends a four-year legal battle between Sony and a supplier of so-called mod chips, which bypass regional controls on the machine.

     

    In the UK, the selling of mod chips was ruled illegal in 2004.

     

    Consoles such as the Xbox and PlayStation 2 can be modified by chips that are soldered to a console's main circuit board to bypass copyright and regional controls.

     

    The chips allow people to play games purchased legitimately in other countries, as well as running backup copies or bootleg discs.

     

    Court tussles

     

    The case in Australia revolved around retailer Eddy Stevens who supplied and installed modification chips in PlayStation consoles so that gamers could play cheaper, imported games.

     

    Sony argued that the mod chips were a breach of copyright under Australian law.

     

    After a series of conflicting judgements from different courts, the High Court has come down on the side of Mr Stevens.

     

    It ruled that mod chips do not breach copyright. It decided that while the chips let gamers play copied or imported games, they do not enable the copying of games.

     

    A lawyer for Mr Stevens said the judgement would allow Australian consumers to buy lower price versions of games overseas and play them on their modded consoles.

     

    Sony Australia said it did not have any comment to make at this stage.

     

    In other countries, the selling of mod chips is banned. In the UK, both Microsoft and Sony have used the EU Copyright Directive to clamp down on mod chips.

     

    Under that directive, it is illegal to circumvent copy protection systems.

  4. My Ritek G05s burn at 8x using ImgBurn....

     

    I would have said firmware update might be needed but it appears to be the latest version below

    Do all these discs burn at 6x or is this the first one you tried ? When I started testing ImgBurn I had one or two 6x burns on 8x rated discs but as Shamus said its not the program, my last burns have all Max'd at 8.3x...... using discs on the same spindle.

  5. I wondered that but it came via an e-mail and after a while I decided that time spent considering gay sex for siamese twins was not best use of my day !!! =))

     

    Will amend it for you now tho ken jr :wink:
