The Notebook Review forums were hosted by TechTarget, who shut down them down on January 31, 2022. This static read-only archive was pulled by NBR forum users between January 20 and January 31, 2022, in an effort to make sure that the valuable technical information that had been posted on the forums is preserved. For current discussions, many NBR forum users moved over to NotebookTalk.net after the shutdown.

    Just use it... how would anyone know. Okay, so they can get ahold of your MAC addy... what are they going to do then? Knock on everyone's door with a warrant asking to see the bottom of their laptop? Cmon....

    People like this base their behavior on the likelihood of being caught, rather than "doing the right thing". Obviously not the sort of person you'd want dating your sister or watching your kids.

    I think this thread has gone far enough.

    If you want to steal bandwidth fine by me, but NBR sure as heck will not support it.
