We are peaceful, we mean you no harm! I can't wait for someone to hack this and make people say crazy shit! Are we so lazy that we no longer wish to speak for ourselves? Sometimes technology and scientists are dumb! I hate things like this. It will never be reality and who cares if it is. We still can't get a decent spell checker or voice recognition system but we have this useless crap.
Gibson is just pissed because now kids don't have to waste money on a real guitar that they will never learn how to play. Instead they can become Guitar Hero superstars in a few weeks. I'm surprised that RIAA hasn't tried to sue Activision for loss of future profits because they are reducing the music industries talent pool!
Actually, according to his website Ron Paul would like to issue these to people in Afghanastan in order to help root out terrorists. I think that this would be a great way to employ a secret army of unidentified computer assasins!....And then what would we do tommorrow night brain? Same thing we do every night General....Try to take over the world!
you might as well teach the Native American belief that we are only here because a giant bird scooped up some mud from the ocean and dropped it in the sun. The dried mud became humans. We've been around ever since. Works for me anyway. Also, if you fail math, you go to hell because there is no room in heaven for children who can't do long division!
I don't think my comment is ignorant. Think of all the people who spent thier hard earned money on an HD DVD player that is going to now become an expensive paperweight. Toshiba and sony could have gotten together and developed a standard that probably would have been better than the two available options now. My comment centers around the fact that companies can share information and create standards and still make a substantial amount of money and not have to confuse the general consumer. The prices would be lowered not by a price war but by the competition of multiple companies making the hardware. If all the hardware companies are given one standard the can decrease the manufacturing costs involved. When there are two competing standards, less units of each are made, thus increasing the cost per unit.
Betamax,Laser Disc,Minidisc, DIVX rentals, and now HD DVD. When will tech companies learn that everyone wants one standard and that these wars usually end poorly for someone. You would think that by now they would learn to all cooperate and back one product, thus making it cheaper for the consumer and getting thier product into more households.
I hear the IRS is working on a worm that uses security vulnerabilities in tax software to ensure that you don't cheat on your taxes! Big Brother much? Who in thier right minds would want this service? If you let things like this go on, next thing you know RIAA is making worms that check to see if your P2P software has vulnerabilities...LOL!
