  I'm just curious as to whether anyone knows of an independent verification
of the alleged letter from EMI?  "The Register" has been known to quote
out-of-context, mis-translate, sensationalize, and intentionally mislead to
create controversy.  I do not afford them any trust.

  I have followed the link to the "original" forum, but I cannot read
German, and I know nothing about <www.heise.de>.  For all I know, that site
could be the German-language version of "The Register".

  Some searching with Google yielded only material referencing the "The
Register" article.

  I *want* to believe this story, which is why I must try all the harder to
check its veracity.
