Do we have any other code monkies in here?

Every once in a while I thought I might post some code tips.  The following code will check for read ACLs on a file in C#.  We had a situation come up at work where one of the developers was having a problem reading one of our log files with user permissions.  It turns out he was attempting to open the file using a full control access flag, but I thought this little piece of code could come in handy.

Hackers

Have you seen this movie? This is quite possibly one of the most technically absurd movies ever made yet I couldn't stop myself. I don't know if it was a weird infatuation with Angelina Jolie or the laughable way computers were presented, but it held my attention for the entire 107 minutes. Trust me, that's no easy task, I have ADD like you wouldn't believe.

Gears of War coming to PC

If nothing else, I will be buying this to play with the map editor and dig in to the Unreal 3 engine.

Microsoft Extends Xbox 360 Warranty

http://www.xbox.com/en-US/support/petermooreletter.htm

For anyone who has had to deal with the unfortunate experience of a bricked Xbox, this is welcome news. I personally have not had to go through the experience, but know several people that have. Microsoft's manufacturing and design have come in to question especially when compared to existing consoles. I have a PS2 at home that was purchased one week after the release date and still functions as it did on the day I bought it.
