Sounds like your own fault. If you had paid attention to the requirements of the game (not necessarily the ones printed on the box) and the hardware you were purchasing, you wouldn't have bought hardware that couldn't run the game. Stick with consoles.
For those of you that like pinball, The Pinball Hall of Fame mentioned in the article is a worthy trip. Not only do they have a shit ton of machines to play, including a couple that you can't find anywhere else in the world, but the proceeds go to the Salvation Army. Next time you're in Vegas, check it out.. www.pinballhall.org
His point wasn't that it sucked, his point was that MS can't sell it at a loss if he thinks that music store sales will make up the missing profit. He proposes that the Zune music store is lacking.
He didn't say his phone was better than an iPhone, he said the features which are touted as new on the iPhone are not as novel or original when compared to the phones on the Japanese market.
In fact, I think his actual question was more like "Why are the features of the iPhone exciting, when the U.S. market should have been providing those or similar features already" The features of the iPhone are *not* really exciting. I've been doing just about everything the iPhone does on my US market cellphones for years now. What makes the iPhone exciting is the IMPLEMENTATION. Browsing on my MDA, my Treo, or any one of the numerous devices I had in the past was a miserable experience at best. Browsing on the iPhone, even on EDGE, is 400000x better. That's just one example.
I don't think any meritorious argument for the iPhone is based on the feature list.
Forget about Velvia 50 & just move onto Velvia 100F like the rest of us have. 50 has little to no (most people would say the latter) advantage over 100f.
Fuji discontinued Velvia 50 because the new Velvia 100 produces images that looked as good, if not better. So there was no point to having a slower film when it was at best comparable to a faster one, especially in this day and age when low speed film is so unpopular.
I wouldn't be surprised if a fair number of Orkut users don't miss their "Iranian friends" as much as you might thing. There's been a lot of bitching about them and the Brazillians from the English-speaking Orkut users. Can't say whether the complaints have any merit or not, but I've heard them in more than one place.
Thank you, that's my entire point. I DID follow the entire story about the mysterious disease, the odd ailments and the confused doctors. Now that he's better, I want to know what the fuck he had or how he fixed it or something. If you have enough time to tell everyone you're about to die, you should be happy and courteous enough to tell them how you dodged the bullet.
So, WTF happened to him? Miraculous recovery from unknown symptoms, or what? One minute he's dying, and now he's just dandy. Chicken soup? What? Did he say anywhere what he had, how it was cured, or anything?
Fine, and it's Master's fault when I leave my front door unlocked and then get robbed. But, but, I had a sign on the gate that said "FRIENDS ONLY"!!!!! That's a lame damn excuse.
I'll let you know when I find an intelligent user that says "fuck it, admin is fine, not like anyone else has access to it."
That my website was down because a link was posted on some news website, causing millions of geeks to load the page and overload the server. What a crock of shit!
Whoa, no need to take it personally. I can slap an Apple logo on whatever random piece of plexiglass, that doesn't mean it looks like a stereotypical Apple computer.
Looks good, but since it doesn't scream "I'M AN APPLLE COMPUTER!!!", I think it loses some of the flair the old Macquariums had. And if it isn't instantly recognizable as a Mac, then what's the point? You can get a much nicer aquarium elsewhere.
Only among SOME pen lovers does Montblanc have a bad rap. Yes, at full MSRP, many of their pens are overpriced, but so are others when you count full MSRP. Montblanc makes fine fountain pens, very smooth, very reliable. Not the best fountain pens, but good nonetheless.
Could you have quoted that a little more incorrectly? "A dios me"?

If you are saying you should just consider the numerical quantity, then any of the other even numbers could be considered symetrical. If you have 4 apples and divide them into two piles, you'll have a symetrical set of apples.

Gotta post here cause I accidentally mod'd you Overrated instead of Funny. Whoops.

He repeated the same exact comment further up the page, and it was debunked there.

I was at GenCon SoCal...it sucked. Seriously. I was extraordinarily disappointed with the event.
They did have Dirk Bennedict signing autographs one year, though.
Eddie Izzard will have to update his routine now...

Let's see...tape adapter, exposed wires, PVC monitor support...can we say "half-assed"?

It looks like there's going to be 3 very dissapointed people out there.
THe thing is, the Underpants Gnome bit goes:
...
Phase 1: Collect Underpants
Phase 2:
Phase 3: PROFIT
So these extra fucking phases come from nowhere.

This firmware needs to be released for the older iPod. That would make me a happy camper.
