  1. Re:Pretty obvious? on Workable Fusion Starship Proposed · · Score: 1

    Why would anyone propose a non-workable fusion starship? Duh.

    fixed that for you.

  2. Re:We don't need more speed on Workable Fusion Starship Proposed · · Score: 1

    Even if they traveled at the speed of light, being completely unable to communicate with anyone on Earth would probably drive them all mad, and if it did, no one would ever know until 4 years later.

    no, we'd have to wait 8.4 years. they've got to come back too.

  4. vist is good on Vista To XP Upgrade Triples In Price, Now $150 · · Score: 1

    its WAY better than XP. i got an hp laptop with 2gb ram and 2.4 core2 duo. i got them hp guys to downgrade it to xp sp3 for 500 bucks(indian rupees). massive pain. wpa2 didnt work, bluetooth would detect my e71. also, it was no faster than my year old toshiba laptop with 512mb ram. then i installed the vista business cd that came with it and voila. decent bootup(45 seconds from shut down, 3-4 seconds from sleep), wpa2 and everything just works, and i get the beautiful ui. the search built into the start menu is great, just like launchy. its also stable as hell, i've never shut it down in the last 4 months, something i couldnt even dream of with xp OR ubuntu. copying huge iso files to my external backup is 3-4 times faster and in xp it used to slow down the other programs too. in conclusion, vista beats xp to death. period. but i have ZERO idea about osx so i cant compare.
