People dont scream at me, I simply do not allow it. If a professional is screaming at me, he better be prepared to back it up with fists. Im a man, and you will treat me with respect, period. No amount of paycheck will change that.
"its cheap crappy hardware"
Yes, thats exactly what we want, cheap shit that gets the job done. Not every edge-case mkv holding moron needs to addressed. Use standards that people actually use, not hack pirate shit. My video server holds up to 5 versions of a single video at various qualities and formats. Disk is cheap, on-the-fly transcoding and bandwidth are not.
NO we have a few generations who now KNOW that the entertainment industry artificially inflates pricing to the point to where cost has no real bearing on profit. We are fine with people making money, we are not fine with artificial scarcity inflating prices. DO you not see that?
The same latency as the Wireless Display (WiDi) technology being employed by Intel, or the same as the wireless display Nintendo is planning on rolling out for Wii U.
Airplay between iOS devices. (iphone, itouch, ipad to AppleTv) Basically what Nintendo is proposing to do 14 months from now with Wii U Apple will be doing in the fall. By the time Wii U launches we will be looking at a quad core A* chip from apple to counter act the Android Kal'el quadcore MID processor. Apple Tv just got bluetooth support as well, can you say Apple controllers?
Nintendo is in big trouble. Apple is getting into the gaming business for real very soon, they will probably jump in with both feet around Wii U launch. iOS 5 brings with it the beginning of the end for Nintendo.
The reality that MS allowed the hardware vendors to release a ton of sub spec machines at launch shaped that perception more then anything else. If they had retained tighter control over the OEMs it would have gone a long way in shaping a more positive perception of Vista.
Fight Club is not an extraordinary work. Its a good story that picks at the right strings, but it is not the deeper level most simpletons would make it out to be. Any elite sees Fight Club for what it is, a pandering story to the lost and disenfranchised. Lauding him for publishing it is pretty naive.
BOth points are true. When im doing business or ordering parts, I really dont care about the life story of the shop. If they couldnt deliver then they are assholes, regardless of what happened, thats business. Just because a tragedy happened in their lives doesnt make the nationwide complaints any less valid.
Ive used Android, iOS and WebOS, owning a Pre Plus and Ipad 2. I have had a palm Pre Plus since they debuted on Verizon. WebOS is the most natural mobile OS interface, HANDS DOWN. That being said, I still bought an iPad instead of the WEbOS tablet for near universal support for almost anything i want to do. IM watching WebOS closely, but im not ready to jump back in with a $500 tablet for an uncertain future.HP telling me im not getting official WebOS 2 on my Pre Plus also kept me away. There is no reason the Plus owners should be denied WebOS 2 because vanilla Pres sucked.
I know this is going ot be unpopular, but AD is a fucking joke of a mess. Its so damn bloated and expensive and takes a team of professionals to design and maintain. It shouldnt be as complicated as it is.
You have never been to a Linux forum have you? You will never see a more wretched hive of scum and villany. Also for your activeX/IE problem, there is a VM for that.....
BULLSHIT. My Apple BT keyboard WILL NOT pair with my Ipad. That incident is the latest BT failure that spurred my original comment. It can see the device, it can even see the keyboards' personally assigned name, but will not pair. This is exactly the shit im talking about. PS3 is the only well handled bluetooth system Ive seen so far. Since i set it up FIVE YEARS AGO, i have never had to think about its bluetooth connections again
There is no other way to describe it. I prefer buying devices with proprietary radios (mouse/keybaords etc) rather then HOPE BT will work. Does anyone know why Bluetooth sucks so bad and is so hard for it to be consistent? My PS3 handles its controllers over bluetooth like a dream, why cant all bluetooth work that smoothly?
I have every 'got to have' PS3 exclusive. Uncharted is HANDS DOWN the best adventure series in this generation. GT5 is a toughy because Forza 4 is going to eat its lunch and claim the popular sim crown. Killzone 2+3 are very well done. Motorstorm, Ratchet and Clank, Time Crisis ( no gun games on Xbox), Meal Gear Solid 4, Heavenly Sword, Not to mention HD remakes Of ICO and Shadow of the Colossus. There is also PS Home, which is pretty damn cool for being free. All the games listed here are AAA polished titles, matching the best of any other console.
Full disclaimer I own all the popular current consoles with comparable libraries for each: PC, PS3, XBOX, Wii, iOS, DS, PSP
Doom III. I'm sorry but Doom III wasnt a game, it was a tech demo. While I understand what you are getting at, you have some big skeletons in your closet regarding this particular complaint.

Yes actually. Look up Kal-El to see what android has up its sleeve for the Wii U's timeline. Mobile graphics are going to be at PS3 levels next year.

Spacetime is NOT nothingness. There is no such thing as nothingness, except perhaps your imagination.

Most people who build a PC dont do it to save money. They do it to get the exact hardware stack and performance they want.
THe PC is in a downward trend becasue of ALOT of factors, most notaby is the breaking of MS lock in and the slow of its inertia.

Does it matter? The email sig on my Ipad 2 said "Sent from my Ipad" I changed it to "Sent from my Ipad 2!" Guess im a pretentious asshole now....
Thanks. I turned off all the other computers in the house and it connected to the iPad perfectly.
Did you miss the part where i said it was an APPLE keyboard?

An intelligent person would say its a bit of that and a bit of the drive not being used by the vast majority of mini owners.
