He's complaining that the screenshots aren't very different? I thought the point of Longhorn was primarily the changes within the OS internals.
I could pop a Ferrari engine into a Pinto, and this guy would complain about the air freshener hanging from the mirror.

This is why I gave up on most games.

I still play Nethack on the PC and Rogue on my Palm (Since a working Nethack port has never been done for the Palm due to the piss poor hardware and API)

Endless gameplay.

Those Nethack guys have thought of EVERYTHING!

I'm so damn close to getting a free ipod, which I'll fill entirely with CC licensed podcasts and rips of CDS I own.

Of course, in order to protect the children, any time an impure or immoral thought enters the mind, an electric shock will be delivered.

Of course, no one will realize that this results in an impotent population who can't reproduce without the aid of science.

Only the wealthy reproduce, since they're the only ones who can either afford the fertility aid, or can bribe their way out of their kids having the chips.

Actually, it's kind of refreshing to realize Bush's moral zeal is self correcting, and will eventually die off, at least in it's current extreme form.

P4HT notebook? And all I've gotta do is get a BankOfAmerica VISA? Wow.

I can't for the life of me fathom why anyone would pay money for a "Firefox 101"-type book when all the propaganda and how-tos anyone needs are already on their site. Not to mention the thousands of Firefox hacks and extension sites out there for the more seasoned user.

And as for the Wired article...yeah, like we need yet *another* hype rag touting the "next big thing".

Don't get me wrong...as a recently converted Firefox user, I'm glad it's getting some well-deserved press, but jam something down someone's throat and they'll want to avoid it like the plague.
