And this was talked about quite a bit upon release, so it did get a lot of attention on tech sites. gjt just wasn't paying attention and was too busy blogging. Then a commenter calls him out for being wrong and he submits to/. that he was wrong? What the Hell?
Btw, do you know how easy is to burn your bandwidth with PS3 acting as server?
No, because I really do have unlimited rather than fake unlimited. You expect your console manufacturer to provide you with free hosted servers? Of course they are going to put it onto one of the consoles for the multiplayer game.
Don't blame PSN for problems with BT. Problems with your service provider don't reflect on the content provider. Do you blame your auto company when the roads are closed?
Who would pay for a game newsletter or reviews? You mention them as free perks, but as a supporting argument to why they should charge for it. I'll go to the biased sources that don't own any consoles for my reviews, thanks.
I let my gold account expire when my 360 died and bought a ps3 instead, the PSN network being free was one of the reasons. It's starting to frustrate me though. I don't know the specifics behind how it works, but the EA titles that I play seem to make one machine the host, rather than use a dedicated server, and that really sucks when you are on the 16th hole of Tiger and suddenly it all craps out. Maybe that's an EA thing because it seems to be a different environment than PSN proper, but Live never gave me those issues (20mbit fiber, it's not me).
I don't understand why you would want to play PS & PS2 games on a PS3. Does it massively upscale? I'm cringing at the memories of the graphics, especially the original. I definitely don't want to see that on a plasma.
A 4 year old laptop wouldn't make a very good media center. So who are we blaming the problem of your old Dell laptop with Intel video not having proper support in Windows 7? I need to point my finger somewhere.
The phrase wasn't that they will stop providing updates, it was that MS doesn't release security updates for the Windows 7 RC code. So the point is still incorrect.
Your alcohol comes in spray form? I still have to drink it here. The US is so backwards...
Seriously though, many yanks in their 20s and younger (not just college folk) just carry nicer backpacks or messenger bags, especially if there's a computer inside. Not out to the grocery store, but going to work or for a day spent drinking downtown. You can only fit so much into cargo pants.
I'm confused. I thought it was named Iceweasel because Mozilla told Debian that they couldn't redistribute a non-official binary and use the logo and name it Firefox.
They removed GIMP? I'm not surprised, GIMP is overkill for what most people need or can understand. Give an older person Photoshop on Windows and they'll get confused, they need something more basic.
Yahoo search financial decision aside, Ubuntu doesn't want to make it as hard to configure to use as Windows, they want to make it as easy to use for the average joe (not us) to use. The Windows 7 adverts are nailing how easy it is to use and how "I suggested this and they did it!" which is probably what Ubuntu and friends need to respond to.
You or I can always install the packages that interest us, out of the box it'd be easier for my sister if it just worked (which is probably why she has a Mac).

It wasn't created. This is what caused the Great Depression, if you were asleep through that class.
Does it over other things besides savings accounts? Maybe it unders some of them too.
Except they billed it as "We like it because it plays with the medium, telling the whole story with audio only."
There were a bunch of words at the end telling me who to choose as my ISP. It wasn't audio only.
Except it works fine with AdBlock Plus enabled.

The difference between 03:27PM and 03:25PM is 2 minutes, not seconds.
Err... Alanis, that isn't irony.

This is true in my experience, which is why some games suddenly quit when PSN has chosen the player with the worst connection to host.
Err, nobody played Calling All Cars multiplayer because it wasn't fun and took less than 30 min in single player to complete.
Except it doesn't cost everyone 40 quid. Even with the exchange rate, I can get one in the US for helluva lot cheaper than the equivalent of £40.

The keyboard sold by apple isn't bluetooth. It's physically attached to the dock, but iPad will work with any bluetooth keyboard.
Ah, thank you sir.
I don't see how removing gimp and adding mono are related... Can someone explain? Did the gimp replacement require mono?

Ummm... You have to jailbreak in order to run the unsigned code to unlock it. Unless you perform magic.
i see what you did there.
