I have been a Speakeasy customer for about 3 years, and if you are a loyal customer, call them and ask for a loyal customer discount. They will knock $5 off per month. Not alot but still something to balance out the cost.
When did Netscape stop being inferior? It's still slow and it's a memory hog compared to IE. Not only that, but they waited 2 years to release a new version. They tiptoed along while MS was happily updating IE, making new useful features, and making it error-resistent.
Sorry, Netscape lost because they didn't keep up. Pity, they could have easily fought off MS if they had actually put some thought into fixing the problems that users found annoying.
It's hard to develop new stuff when you don't have any cash coming in. Also it was around that time that AOL bought them out... and well we know where that went.

Sure it's a new commercial airframe, but the basic design has been tested for years, flying MUCH faster then a commercial jet.

First of all Nvidia has banm good Linux support, sure there drivers are binary only, but at least they have drivers.
Secondly it's not the Graphcis card companyies that write the games for Windows... it's the software people. And it takes brave companies like the late Loki, as well as a few recent ones(Bioware) to notice that there might be a small nitch for linux gaming.
If you work at MS you get a corprate discount. So you can by the Windows OS for about $25. When I was an intern there I said sure I'll get a copy $25 is a good price for a gaming platform.
This information is also avaliable in most big city libraries.

Sure this guy should be arrested for cracking into governemnt websites, but trying to raise change in the government, NO.
The writiers of the current constitution ment in an old church in Mid Summer in the south doing just what he is doing. Working out a plan to put a new government into place.
Yes, I think that a violent over throw of the government is a bad idea, but there are peaceful way to and they are in the constitution.

Well i know what my choice is...
It isn't Pacbell it's SWBC. I noticed this about 2 years ago when on a trip to the local central office.
They were like we aren't Pacbell we are SWBC, and I'm like Wait, wasn't there a congressional act against telco monopolies. And he was like Yeah... I never understood what the fuss is, goverment should just make the telephone service either free, or the government should controll the access.
I personally don't want my game crashing in the middle of me playing. And as we all know that if it is going to be windows based OS, then it wll crash at the most random times.
Also if this is going to for another branch of MS, and the gubment is going to break up MS, then isn't this just ging to form another baby-MS. I personally don't understand where MS gets off thinking that they can just jump into the Console gaming market. And if they do pull it off it will just go to show how much weight they do pull with Mindshare of the average Joe
I would first like to ask if SJ Games, in their article, mean hackers or crackers when they say hackers.
Secondly I would like to mention that the Gubment's Search Warrant was based on a very very flimsy affidavit. And they still HAVEN'T returned all of the items they seized ten years ago.
This just goes to show that the gubment has actively been against all forms of irreverence. Which goes against the first amendment to the constitution.
I don't believe in this "National Security" crap. It is more like "Governmental Security. The Feds doing something illegal to scare the genral populus against these kinds of people.
When ever I go into an arcade I look for Pacman, Tron, Spy Hunter, Donkey Kong, and Gauntlet. I love to play the classics. Rarely do I go and LOOK for a fighting game.
I think that we have definately strayed from the orginal concepts and are just a bunch of clone making fools. Sure we have remakes of Frogger, Gauntlet, and of course the original Pong.
The main problem that exists is that we don't have many types of cake out. Instead of making our games full of more icing we need to develop more types of cake. Sure in the beginning before we had icing the flavor of the cake was the most important thing, but now people are just changing the flavor of the icing while keeping the three flavors of cake, fighting, 1st person shooters, and racing. IMHO The remakes barely live up to the greatness that the classic was. Sure they have new and "better" graphics, "better" sound, but all of these are icing on the cake. If a video game is a cake then the icing sould add flavor but not take away from the flavor of the cake itself.
Nowadays games are just about all icing with little to no cake at all. Sticking a spoon into a tub of icing and eating it is good for one or two spoon fulls, but eventually you need to get same cake in your diet, and that is why I go back to the classics. Sure I indulge in the occational game of "Police Trainer".
Now a days you have to buy a battery what every two years, or when ever you get a new computer. So you hyave to plug it in every once in a while. I would much rather have to plug it in a still be able to use it then have to worry about buying 365 batteries for each year, at the price that they are saying:
Consumers could easily check the methanol level to find out when to replace the fuel cell, which will likely cost as much as or less than traditional rechargeables, Ooms said.
That will be much more then I'm willing to spend per year just so that I can have 20 hours of battery life. Also that's assumeing that you only use your laptop 20 hours a day, not good enough for your run-of-the-mill hacker

While yes they are harder to upgrade then most.

It's like $10 - $20 for one thing. You shelled out $400 ish for the device what is $10 or $20 on a piece of bad software?
