Oh, I'm absolutely NOT advocating it (MAC spoofing in the logitech realm). I just want to use a raspberry pi as a replacement for a sb touch or other hardware that logitech no longer produces, just like probably thousands of other DIY users. I certainly don't want logitech to take steps as drastic as you mention and I'm NOT trying to incite anything here, but your run of the mill hobbyist is going to try and find a solution to THEIR problem. They may not know that by doing so could bring the hammer down on EVERYONE. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ wonton's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=63558 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=102489 _______________________________________________ squeezenetwork mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/squeezenetwork
