OK, so first there was a Mac OS X hacking contest, and this guy was all, "w00t, I totally hax0rd it in 30 minutes, I am hecka l33t!" And then a University of Wisconsin systems engineer organized a new challenge that was actually a challenge--in the sense that he didn't give anyone a local account on the machine, just like you wouldn't if, you know, it were your Mac. And no one breached that bad boy in some 38 hours of trying. I feel the only appropriate response here is "snap."
