"The testing period is now closed and the response has been very strong.

• Traffic to the host spiked at over 30 Mbps.
  
• Most of the traffic, aside from casual web visitors, was web exploit scripts, ssh dictionary attacks, and scanning tools such as Nessus.
  
• The machine was under intermittent DoS attack. During the two brief periods of denial of service, the host remained up.
  
• The test machine was a Mac mini (PowerPC) running Mac OS X 10.4.5 with Security Update 2006-001, had two local accounts, and had ssh and http open with their default configurations.
  
• There were no successful access attempts during the 38 hour duration of the test period.
  

• The site received almost a half a million requests via the web.
  
• There were over 4000 login attempts via ssh.
  
• The ipfw log grew at 40MB/hour and contains 6 million events logged.
  
• More test results and information will be published here at a future date."

Computer scientists in Microsoft Corp.'s research division have developed a color-coded "dance pad" with buttons you can tap with your feet — or jump on — to scroll through electronic files.



It may never make it to store shelves, but that's no concern to Microsoft, which spends billions of dollars a year researching far-out technologies without worrying about whether the gizmos will ever make it to store shelves."



So, there you have it folks. That's the REAL reason that MS want your money, so they can blow it on Windows enabled Dance Revolution ripoffs.
