    X-Box is evil, your only helping microsoft... don't buy it... It's microsoft's way to extend it's monopoly to the gaming industry...

      PS2 is evil, your only helping Sony... don't buy it...

      Are there any wholesome consoles out there?

  2. and? by archen · · Score: 0, Troll

    Is this really that interesting? While I admit it would be cool to have a MAME machine for a TV, I'm not sure I see the difference between this, and finding an old laptop running DOS with a special controller. (Note that I referr to a laptop for the size comparability.)

    he only has one cup of Starbucks on the desk.

    You mean none. Anyone who is *TRUELY* 1337 dosnt drink Starbucks *anything*. Starbucks is consum-o-drone level trash. Anyone who is 1337 will understand that Starbucks is a homoginized-vanilla reproduction of a vibrant coffee shop. Starbucks carpet-marketing-bombs the "vibrant coffee shop" industry, making diversity in the marketplace impossible - and thus DESTROYS the coffee-shop industry.. you know, the independant "my neighbour owns this store and employees intelligent/interesting people based on their value not on their ability to wear a uniform well and act 'bubbly' (read: starbucks-ish and predictable)"

    People who are 1337 are also above being snookered-in by the thinly veiled facade of anything remotely starbuck-ish.

  4. Ethernet does work, for some by Len · · Score: 1, Troll
    That's right, the Ethernet controller is like my gall bladder - it's useless. It does nothing. There is no reason for its existence.


    But some people claim to have played Halo deathmatch on a LAN.

    My hands can span 1.5 octaves on a computer...

    You must have one interesting computer keyboard!

    What song were you performing as you typed your /. message?
