  7. Re:ME on QuickTime 6 Is Out · · Score: 2

    Hell, I have OS 7 running on the Mac SE sitting to my right. If bored, start up it and the shiny, dual-processor G4 servers to my left and compare. LOL

  8. Re:I screwed up the math........ on Mac Users May Be Smarter · · Score: 2

    I'm not sure if the effects can be induced, but may I suggest buying a Mac to help yourself out? ;)

  9. Re:This sentence is unintentionally amusing. on Metropolis Reconstructed · · Score: 2

    I think the point was that it sounds like Martin Koerber and Alpha-Omega are being butchered.

  10. Re:M.I.N.U.M.A.M. ?? on Robot Wars · · Score: 2

    Better yet, this one could serve as inspiration:

    D.R.O.I.D.E.K.A.

    Deadly Robot: Opportunistic, Intelligent, Destructive, Killing, Autonomous.

    Anything that gives a Jedi a run for his/her/its money is pretty spiffy.

    Friends don't let friends use XP.

  16. Naysaying on OSI Launches Certification Program With Logo · · Score: 5, Funny

    Don't mean to be a naysayer, but I'm not sure using Logo in a certification program is such a spiffy idea. How hard it is to move that turtle around, really? ;)

  21. Re:Let's hope Apple gets quicker.... on OS X Security Update: Apache, SSL and SSH · · Score: 4, Funny

    They spend hours--nay--days getting their virtual desktop decorated just right.

    We have to have *something* to do when we're not rebooting after crashing, reinstalling the entire system thanks to yet another virus attack, or beating back the EULA police.. That's the kind of substance I can do without, thank you very much.

    Boy, the trolls sure do come out of the woodwork on Apple stories, don't they?

  22. Re:Let's hope Apple gets quicker.... on OS X Security Update: Apache, SSL and SSH · · Score: 2

    for if Steve was incharge, he would make Bill look like a puppy.

    Well, considering Bill now looks like an insane, evil, power-hungry, totalitarian dictator of a businessman, I guess the puppy thing wouldn't be so bad. Unless he piddled on the carpet. Nothing worse than house-training a Chief Software Architect. Of course, looking at this picture, he already has a problem with getting on the couch and digging in the trash. :)

    Nice troll, btw.

  23. Re:Vegas Sewer... on Spelunking in Las Vegas · · Score: 2
