  1. Re:Space Superiority on China Launches First Moon Orbiter · · Score: 1

    The Simpson's already did it? Seriously, what is the fascination with the moon? I guess in China's defense unless they make a Louisiana Purchase sized purchase from Russia they need somewhere to put 1.3 billion people.

  2. Re:Another one on Vista Vs. Gutsy Gibbon · · Score: 4, Funny

    As many as it takes? (I'll leave it up to you as to whether I'm trying to make you fed up or cheering on the success of Linux)

  3. Re:License costs? on VMware, Cisco Plan Data Center OS · · Score: 1

    except, now that Citrix has purchased Xen they raised the cost by 300%

  4. Re:Maybe it's not the technology... on Why Can't I Buy A CableCARD Ready Set-Top Box? · · Score: 1

    Comcast refuses to give me a cable card....refuses. They want me to pay for a box, they say they don't support the card if I put it in my TV. This angers the Norse God within me. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loki/ Buh Buh Buh black market here i cooommmeeee.....

  5. Re:Maybe this stems from... on Vista Runs Out of Memory While Copying Files · · Score: 1

    Actually a lot of OEM's are offering downgrades, call CDW (shameless plug)

  6. Re:How would she know if the ESRB is doing it's jo on Inside the ESRB Ratings System · · Score: 1

    It would be a different system and I think the ratings would reflect better if they used a Nielsen type sampling from around the country. Take a % based on population, give a loosely defined set of guidelines, pick a random sampling and rate. I think the main problem they have here in the ESRB are not gamers and not privy to the differences say between the violence of Halo/GTA (posted /. yesterday).

  7. The Simpson's on Pentagon Urges Space-Based Solar Power · · Score: 1

    already did it.

  8. Re:Question for those who fly more then me.... on Japanese Airlines Ban DS, PSP · · Score: 1

    what about laptops with Bluetooth and wireless cards always on? I love Tech savvy Gov officials.....

  9. How can they manage all that on Casual Gamers Forcing Gamestop to Rethink Store Layouts · · Score: 1

    in the 100 sq ft storefronts they have? I call shenanigans.

  10. What will we do at year end? on Playing Music Slows Vista Network Performance? · · Score: 1

    When M$ won't let anyone have XP on new machines anymore? M$ is ensuring adoption by businesses, which in turn will trickle to the consumer.

  11. Jsut shows you teh further away from on Voyager Spacecraft Celebrate 30th Anniversary · · Score: 3, Insightful

    our government, the better everything works...robots...farmers....technology...

  12. Re:Thank You 360's Crappy 7GB DVD Drive! on GTA IV Delayed Into Next Year · · Score: 1

    Actually they didn't say that, Sony did, and PGR4 Devs came out immediately to argue this. They chose to do it to give a broader depth of weather changes and reality, not because they ran out of space. The link eludes me right, now since I am at work, but I think it was on qj.net.

  13. Re:I call Shenanigans on Nielsen's First PlayMetrics Results Announced · · Score: 1

    I agree, did you know that in Chicago, pop say 4 million with some outer Burroughs, they only sample 2300 homes for TV ratings? I understand math has something to do with this, but I really think this is not an accurate reflection of what people are playing or watching.

  14. They would probably have had on Don't Hold Your Breath For FFXIII · · Score: 2, Insightful

    the game finished if it wasn't for the 678,934 hours of cinematics that they had to make. When a game is 10hours play time and 45 hours of movies it isn't a game anymore.
