'Q' Plays US GameCube Games

Bodero writes: "Lik-Sang is reporting that Panasonic's 'Q', the Japan-only GameCube/DVD Hybrid, can be modded to play US GameCube games much in the same way that the Japanese GameCube can be. This does not, however, allow it to play region one DVDs as of yet, but keep your eyes out. It's a shame Panasonic chose not to release it to North American store shelves, but the import will soon work just as well."

    Our car-manufacturing company has developed a new revolutionary business model for making cars.

    We give away the cars for free and then we sell services for those cars! If you want to we can clean your car, wax it or you can use some of our other services.

    We get cash from a couple of VC's, the rest of them simple don't "get it". If we need more we just call "the suits".

    This is the deal of a lifetime for any poor open source programmer!

    Watching Cowboy Bebop in your jammies and eating a bowl of Shreddies is *not* "getting on with your life".

    What you do in your spare time is your own business, buddy. Seriously though, people are getting on with their lives by not letting themselves be terrorized. You are simply feeding the media frenzy.

    Wow, that sentence was right out of Zero Wing. So your point is that we can get Japanese stuff, but it's mistranslated so as to be rather unintentionally humorous? :)
