  1. NAS is big again on Xiotech Unveils Disruptive Storage Technology · · Score: 1

    This is so arcane. It's like sitting on Tasman Dr. watching Net Appliance buy up lot after lot & VA Linux just announced a new thing called a build to order NAS. NAS is the future again. Buy Excite.com!

  2. Sell me a 24 bit 192khz sound card on $90 Asus Sound Card Whips Creative's Best · · Score: 1

    It's been over 15 years of web advertizing for 16 bit soundcards. Didn't 24 bit 192khz sound cards already beat Creative at something?

  3. When does Goog sell Youtube... on Google Plans To Sell Part of DoubleClick · · Score: 1

    and buy Vimeo?

  4. U mean we're not all members of THE PORTLAND CHAP? on FBI Reports All-Time High In Internet Fraud Losses · · Score: 1

    Like millions of people, U probably got that $4 charge from THE PORTLAND CHAP. All it takes is 1 insecure website, break in, charge $4 to a million credit cards. No-one notices.

  5. So when does 10MPBS for $60 get cancelled? on Comcast Offers 50 Mbps Residential Speeds · · Score: 1

    The real news is that 10MBPS for $60 is going to be replaced by the 50MBPS for $150. Of course the 50MBPS only runs at 11MBPS and has a 50 megabit/month quota after which it's $15,000.

  6. Comca$t is bulletproof on Comcast Puts the Screws To HDTV · · Score: 1

    They did with the old $370 analog plan. Now they're doing it with the $1200 HDTV plan. Customers still flock to them. It's not like U can just leave Calif* and find a job somewhere else.

  7. Relevance of Brand Power outside US on Microsoft Brand In Sharp Decline · · Score: 1

    Is brand power & losing sleep over whether your corporate executive idol is the master of the universe as important in other countries as it is in US?

  8. Why did it take so long? on Researchers Play Tune Recorded Before Edison · · Score: 1

    Hard to believe humans couldn't record sound until 1860. Wish someone would describe the reasons it took so long. Unfortunately, no ink recording was made of the great musicians of the time. Used to think ink recording of sound was possible as a child.

  9. Comca$t is our $aviour on Comcast Makes Nice with BitTorrent · · Score: 1

    Rumor has it, Comca$t is also talking to someone somewhere about lowering prices. They're going to work together on it. It's just around the corner. God bless the Com.

  10. The next big thing in GREEN TECH on Rubik's Cube Proof Cut To 25 Moves · · Score: 3, Funny

    This Green Technology uses 1/26th less energy to solve a rubix cube! When's the IPO?

  11. UAV's vs. Web 2.0 on Aerial Drones To Help Cops In Miami · · Score: 1

    The story about UAV's got 3 times the comments as the story about Javascript, but what do you do for a living? If only the stuff that mattered most was also the stuff that made the most money.

  12. The ultimate green tech idea on Western Digital's "Green" Hard Drives · · Score: 0

    The killer green tech idea is Basket Weaving Technology (BASKET). Basket Weaving Technology saves the environment by weaving baskets with 10 less pieces of basket weave. You need to buy BASKET before this new GREEN TECHNOLOGY takes off.

  13. What about the ones shipped from Taiwan to US? on Nuclear Nose Cones Mistakenly Shipped to Taiwan · · Score: 1

    The Detroit nose cones are trash compared to the nuclear nose cones made in Taiwan for US.

  14. Group search works on To Search Smarter, Find a Person? · · Score: 1

    The Goog algorithm works as long as you do the same search that everyone else is doing. Since large most people have the same interest at any moment, it works. God forbid people start thinking independantly.

  15. This story gets modded down to -500 on Someday You'll Hate Apple (And Google Too) · · Score: 1

    GOOG & corporations are perfect. Individuals are evil. We should all be handing celebrity CEO's our life savings.

  16. Education reflects the economy on Does It Suck To Be An Engineering Student? · · Score: 1

    The brilliant ones who get lousy grades don't make much money. The ones who do what they're supposed to but aren't very creative get good grades & make more money. This particular economy rewards doing what you're supposed to do & not being creative so naturally education reflects that.

  17. Negativity about GOOG -5 on A New Tool From Google Worries Brand-Name Sites · · Score: 2, Funny

    Since they were negative about GOOG, they'll have to be modded down to -5.

  18. Love of corporations abounds on The Wrath of the Apple Tribe · · Score: 1

    The Apple phenomenum affects all corporations. Maybe it's because we're more invested in the success of corporations through the stock market than any previous generation or because corporations reach farther into every day life than ever before, through the internet. Except for Microsoft, there is more love, trust, and belief that corporate decisions can do no wrong in lieu our own personal judgement than any previous time.

  19. Standards rule on Web 2.0, Meet JavaScript 2.0 · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Instead of writing specs in essay form & expecting someone else to translate them into software, why can't these guys just write the spec in the form of the software to actually implement it and then rely on someone else to optimize it?

  20. I didn't win either on Wireless Auction Ends With Mixed Feelings · · Score: 4, Funny

    I didn't win but I wanted open access. Why isn't everyone who didn't win but wanted open access a hero?

  21. Floating point voxel octree Google Earth on How To Use a Terabyte of RAM · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Still think the floating point voxel octree version of Google Earth will use that memory before any ramdisk gets it.

  22. The Volkswagon Bug IPod version on Blue Lights To Reset Internal Clocks · · Score: 0

    And the Volkswagon Bug IPod edition will have a picture of Steve Jobs staring at U to keep U awake.

  23. Jet engine version on Silent Microchip 'Fan' Has No Moving Parts · · Score: 1

    So when does the jet engine version come out?

  24. Would be better with only knees on New BigDog Robot Video · · Score: 1

    Based on the fact that it tends to fall on its knees on anything but the best surfaces, it would probably be more efficient with just knees.

  25. AAPL on The Reality Distortion Field Is Real · · Score: 1

    So why aren't U people hitting BUY when U see AAPL?
