  1. how about we do this in the right order? on How Classsmate PC Stacks Up Against OLPC · · Score: 0

    cheap PC's are useful for poorer nations this is true what I don't understand it shouldn't they have running water, roof over there heads, and electricity first before they have a computer? it just seems like its the wrong order I mean lets fix the basics first and worry about computers later! its not much help to have a computer if you starving to death! I suppose you could sell it? but thats about it? ether that or a Nigerian scammer!

  2. the reason the charge out the eats for sms is..... on Texting Teens Generating OMG Phone Bills · · Score: 0

    so you will pay them 20 dollars for the unlimited plan its an effective scare tactic to get any half smart person to pay for the all you can eat and if you SMS a lot then it works great but if you SMS people who don't have an unlimited plan then your raking up there bill and the will probably also be charged out the ears and they will also get the unlimited plan and then they SMS everybody they know and so and so on. yes its a scheme to make you pay more each month companies love to know how there going to be paid for a service each month I mean I know I like my pay check month! I think most cell companies will let you turn OFF SMS so they can't be sent or received so you can't get those unexpected bills well at least not from SMS. thats why all these charges for going over your minutes are so steep and also why they make no effort to warn you when your close to maxing out your minutes because then they can so oh for 10 more bucks a month you can get X more minutes and they keep milking more money out of you!

  3. right.... on Home Secretary Requests Fingerprint-Activated iPods · · Score: 0

    don't we have bigger fish to fry I mean as long as people have had prised valuables other people have stolen them there is nothing new here. now people carry around a lot more valuables on then they used to. Before it was just a wallet maybe a nice watch. now we carry Ipods and cellphones and pda's digital cameras ext. not only that but our kids cary a lot more valubals then they used I mean back before cell phones and I pod what would be the point of robbing a kid say 12 or so what lunch money? my little brother who is 13 years old carries one nice ass cellphone everyday to school probably worth at least a $100-$150 and almost no money a few bucks for lunch maybe.

  4. wont they just have fake ID's anyway? on Another Anti-Terror List Impacting Businesses, Customers · · Score: 0

    i mean do really think any drug dealer,terrorist is going to use there real name? I mean if they know the government is after them then they will use a different name at every turn and keep the times they need to use ID to a minimum not like its hard fake these things if you have money I mean. or they will stay out of the USA all together.

  5. why does sweden do this anyway? on Sweden Admits Tapping Citizens' Phones for Decades · · Score: 0

    Its a waste of time and money not like anybody hates Sweden that much anyway. I mean sweden so neutral I doubt they come up on any terrorist radar for attacks I'd like to see if this has ever done any good at all the past spying I mean. I don't see why you would be so worried I mean terrisiom is never the talk in Sweden as far as I know its always about "bad" companies and political partys promising to make companies pay more in taxes to provide better unemployment checks or something.

  6. aol needs to die on AOL Now Supports OpenID · · Score: -1, Offtopic

    there is no way that aol will ever become a good company there is just to much garbage and bad feelings over them. I know I wouldn't touch them with a 10 foot poll!

    so will vista have couple like 10 15 service packs so now service packs are really like regular windows update bug fixes?? now it a PR thing not somthing that will actually improve the software??

  8. why does the link go to the swedish site? on Microsoft Launches Comical Effort to Fight Piracy · · Score: 1

    How about you start in India or china where you need to worry about pirating?

  9. about time on Music Companies Mull Ditching DRM · · Score: 1

    about time! I hope they finally change there ways.think the problem will be that they will charge more for the non DRM songs and have to levels or something in that case I'll probably keep buying CD's until they figure it out. If they ever figure it out!!
