Speaker 0: Hi Mary , how's it going ? Speaker 1: Well , last night I had a big argument with Ann . Speaker 0: Terrible . It must be something serious . You two are such close friends . Speaker 1: Now that I look back at it , it wasn't that big a deal . I shouldn't have lost my temper . Speaker 0: Really ? What happened ? Speaker 1: It's just we've been planning to go the beach for a while , and we decided we could both make it this weekend . Then out of nowhere she called me up , said her boyfriend had made plans and that she need to cancel the trip . I was so angry when she told me that I said she didn't care about our friendship at all . Speaker 0: That's pretty harsh . Speaker 1: I know , but I was so upset . I mean , come on ! Does she have to do everything her boyfriend says ? Speaker 0: You know she probably feels just as bad . Speaker 1:
Well , I think I was being a little selfish myself . I know they don't get to see each other very often .

Well , in that case I guess maybe you can be more understanding . You shouldn't let a trivial thing like this stand in the way of your friendship . After all you can go to the beach anytime you want .

Speaker 0: Hey , Mike . You've been surfing the Net for quite a while . What on earth are you searching for ? Speaker 1:
It's something relative hackers . I often hear people talking about them , but I don't know much about them .

Well , roughly speaking , a hacker is a computer buff .

You mean a guy using enthusiastic and knowledgeable about the computer ?

But why are people always having such a negative attitude towards them ?

They must have mixed hackers with crackers .

What is crackers then ?
Speaker 0: Hey , Mike . You've been surfing the Net for quite a while . What on earth are you searching for ? Speaker 1: It's something relative hackers .

There is another group of people who loudly call themselves hackers , but they aren't . They break into computers and break the phone system . Real hackers call these people crackers , and want nothing to do with them .

Well , the real hackers mostly think crackers are lazy , irresponsible and not very bright , and feel that being able to break security does make you a hacker any more than being able to start cars without keys makes you an automotive engineer . Unfortunately , many journalists and writers have been fooled into using the word hacker to describe crackers . This irritates real hackers to no end .
