Judge Nicholas Evans said he was satisfied McKinnon should be sent for trial in the U.S. Home Secretary John Reid will make the final decision on extradition. If Reid approves extradition, McKinnon will appeal to the High Court, his lawyer Karen Todner said.
This morning on BBC radio they played another excerpt from the hacker and he was speaking about the U.S. having a force of spacecraft already in use. However he did not estimate the amount of ships or provide any more details regarding this. I tried to access the BBC vaults to check out the videos, unfortunately the BBC videos are for UK clients only.. Can anyone access the videos and possibly shed some more light on this subject?

Hacking into computer systems and causing damage and financial loss is a very real crime. If the allegations are true, I don't see why he shouldn't do time in the US.

What damage did he cause? From what we have heard hear, all he did was gain access to unprotected computers and swipe a few files. No malicicous "damage" was caused. I reckon the $700,000 they claim he did is actually the cost's they incurred beefing up security on their DoD systems so a dude with a dial-up connection and an aversion to sunlight couldn't just log on and download sensitive files.
Damage my hairy white bum.......
