Blast it, you're going to make us all learn Dutch, aren't you? Maybe it won't be too hard, since I did pick out a few Dutch words that I didn't realize I knew: "buffer overflow," "root access," "n00b," etc.
Good job, Arjan; it's nice to see that byline, isn't it?

I never get tired of seeing my name ;-) All hail me! ;-)

But seriously, since April 1994 there has hardly been a time when more than two weeks went by without them printing one of my articles. That wasn't the reason I posted this, it was to poke fun of the company that breached my copyright (as under Dutch law, I retain full rights over the text) while at the same time having an opportunity to promote the book without getting into trouble with Elsevier (since the illustration isn't mine, and therefore its copyright resides somewhere else).

This was the one they didn't pay for, by the way, since they (rightfully) considered it to be a free four page advertisement for my book. You may remember this posting: http://www.zachtei.nl/2005/10/12/001020.html
