CES Scorecard 2007 - What Came True; What Didn't

narramissic writes "In the race for Consumer Electronics Show (CES) headlines, companies parade new, hot, and not-quite-ready-for-primetime products while keynote speakers rev things up with predictions for the year ahead. An ITworld article runs down the list of who stuck their necks out too far in 2007, starting with Sharp's monster 108-inch LCD. 'The set represented the biggest flat-panel TV developed -- a title it still holds today -- and came without a price but with the promise of availability during 2007. But wealthy consumers are still waiting. Sharp said recently that it is still working on plans for a commercial launch for the TV set.'"

    Why does everybody feel the need to report myminicity links? Aren't they obvious enough? They are all vague one-liners that refer to a link to that will supposedly illustrate the poster's point (and are often AC). Same goes for goatse.ca links. Trolls can't make them much longer without making some sort of statement relevant to the story.

    I just add each one I see to my /etc/hosts file to redirect them to 127.0.0.1. If I ever accidentally click one, it fails.
