See, I would have to disagree with both of these points here. I think it is really just a matter of what sort of movies you enjoy. I saw both Akira and Dune before I had read any of the print material on either. I loved them both. I actually still feel that had I seen the movies after I read the books, I would have probably hated them both. Of course I like David Lynch, so maybe my whole point is invalid.
Now this is exactly why my friends and I often become fed up with reading/.
Having put in more than my share of hours in the trenches, I have finally found my niche in the economy and can now afford some of those really cool toys I saw at product shows, but never thought of purchasing. Now is there some proof I am unaware of which shows there is an inverse proportion of brains to the amount of money one makes?
To me it just seems like some sort of weird socio-economic (previous term inserted to make the coffeeshop intellectuals read this post) discrimination.
I'm sure I'll prolly be flamed like a cheesy old hotrod for this post, but really, if you work hard and don't hurt others in doing so, what is so wrong with making money? Sheesh.
Great, as if (insert favorite 1st person shooter here) didn't make enough people naseous! Hrm, I wonder how openGL will handle rendering all that vomit?

Common, everyone knows they don't speak Latin in
Dane-land, only in Latin America.
