Very, very misleading title. A login shell was given to all hackers to start them off. That is not the same as just putting the machine on the net like the title, description and firt few paragraphs imply.

Shame, Munir, for stooping to either 1) yellow journalism or 2) shilling for Bill.

Editors, you should have caught this one. The even is worth covering, but it damages ZDNet's credibility to come up with such wildly incorrect titles and summaries.
