-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Does anyone else find it odd that Elcomsoft is getting a lot of press for something relating to cracking on video cards, when you could just write your cracker in RapidMind and be done with the whole problem? No doubt that was one of RapidMind's early test programs.
When selling stories, you need a memorable 'hero'. Elcomsoft will be that way for a couple more years as the people who got tangled by the DMCA which is still very unpopular in Linux circles. In 2 more years it will probably be old news, but it still resonates and has better recognition than probably any other person, company, alien entity that has been using FPGA and similar tools for years before Elcomsoft printed their release. -- Stephen J Smoogen. -- CSIRT/Linux System Administrator How far that little candle throws his beams!
