PrintWhatYouLike , an online tool that lets you easily block out items on a Web page that you don't want to print.
It's a neat idea, and it works most of the time. But if the page you're printing requires JavaScript to be enabled,
it might not work perfectly. Play around with the tool  and lemme know what you think.

Well then let me say something about the Dell running OS X.

It is widely believed that every intel based Mac has a special Apple designed chip (some form of TPM chip or other custom designed chip). And we know that the soon to be released Mac OS X 10.6 "Snow Leopard" will be a intel-only release (No more PowerPC Support).

Since all supported systems will now have the chip, Apple can make the OS require this chip to function (or actually some software code on the chip).

This should make it much harder for PC users to pirate Mac OS X and install it on non-Apple hardware (Which will be proven illegal in the Psystar case).

Funny but I didn't see any mention of any pirated software in that article. Did you ???

People download the hacked OS X image from BitTorrent websites to install on their PCs, therefore pirating. I highly doubt those people are paying Apple $129 for the leopard install DVD (because it wont run on PCs until its modified).

Any and all ideas are welcome.

That should take care of about 1/2 of the drive.
What about the other half ???
