First off, you're not correct. At least not in what I've seen.
Most people that played Halo played THE console FPS before, and I mean Goldeneye for the N64. If you were of age to play that game when it was out, you played it. Now at that time its PC competition (Quake 2, Unreal) completely blew it away, but Goldeneye was still ridiculously popular. So I would say the people whose first exposure to an FPS game was Halo would be extremely limited. Since multiplayer FPS gaming on the console went back to Goldeneye as well, I would say the same for the second statement. (Perfect Dark was an awesome game, but was extremely unpopular, I found).
The people I know who play Halo are a big mix of extreme "street" cred gamers (owned Neo-Geo, played iD games before Wolf3D) and casual gamers (had consoles, no real computers). It's pretty evenly spread out.
That said, I would 100 to 1 prefer to play a game on the couch with my friends with beer/soda/drinks in hand than sitting on a computer.
I might have an inclination to see a movie like Polar Express. Then I saw the trailer and frankly it looked like the most lifeless movie I have ever seen. It's like the CG actors are not renditions of humans, but of hyper-active mannequins in some sort of mall recreation of the book.
A computer error involving one voting-machine cartridge gave President Bush 3,893 extra votes in a Gahanna precinct. Franklin County's unofficial results gave Bush 4,258 votes to Democratic challenger John Kerry's 260 votes in Precinct 1B, which votes at New Life Church on Stygler Road. Records show only 638 voters cast ballots in that precinct. Matthew Damschroder, director of the Franklin County Board of Elections, said Bush received 365 votes there. The remaining 13 voters who cast ballots either voted for other candidates or did not vote for president. Damschroder said he received some calls yesterday from people who saw the error when reading the list of poll results on the election board's Web site. "It's why the results on election night are unofficial," Damschroder said. The error would have been discovered when the official canvass for the election is performed, he said. Election workers will start certifying the official election results later this month. The final, official tally will be available by the end of the month. This is what happened, Damschroder said:...

I do my mail administration using stuff from Inter7, specifically qmailadmin and vpopmail. It is terribly easy to use. My only complaints are that it does not let you forward outside of your own domain (I think), but that's not really needed so it doesn't really matter.
Both programs are Free As In Beer. They make some allusions to open-source on their webpage, so they might be Free As In Speech, I don't know.
I've gone through 8-10 sticks for all my own computers and only until the most recent one do I have bad memory. Luckily I have so much that it's never an issue until I have lots of programs open, and even then, only WinAmp skips. I'm too lazy to fix it right now.
I do work for a financial services company and it just means increased paperwork. Personally, I have nothing to hide, so I'm not too concerned. That doesn't mean I like the idea of it.
Uh, hate to troll but your sig "Vote for Badnarik or Hear 'Next Stop Amerika! Papers please'" is exactly what Badnarik wants. He has proposed extremely fortified, military borders unlike anything the U.S. has seen before. That being said, I don't understand the point of your statement.
Perhaps in addition to their TV advertising, they could use other means? I know the internet is a really powerful place. Perhaps by individually contacting Europeans they are able to put their name to good use again. But we need to make sure all Europeans are contacted. I suggest Hormel engages in a direct electronic mail campaign to contact every European. To make sure the message is understood, I suggest the use of ALL CAPITALS.
Let's keep a tally of sites with relevant information. Not sure if there's a bias in their reporting of news, but I've come to like Real Clear Politics as a way to keep track of the polls, etc.
Of course there's always non-US news sites like The Guardian and The Economist's articles regarding the election.
Breaking "news" also appears on Drudge Report. As far as blogs go, I don't really have any good ones. Any other ones you guys like?
This happens so often with me with audio cables that I always become mystified. Not to toot my own horn, but I can understand basic logic and scientific ideas. That being said, I do not naturally have an engineer's mind. I complained about this to my friend the ME one day, saying my audio cables are being angry, my telephone keeps wrapping itself tighter, my controllers are a mess.
He shook his head and lifted up a controller by its free end (the end that connects to the console). He held it up high. To my amazement, it began to spinning. After a few seconds, it stopped spinning, and he laid it down. "There, now it won't wind up." I aws amazed at this release of Torquential Controller Energy and have since been obsessed with released the TCE from any cables I can find.
Now, to the educated inteeligent elite of Slashdot (those apparently, with user IDs 138059 and under) the reckless childlike wonder that the hoi polloi of society attributes to these facts must be laughable. But I thought it was damn cool. Now, folding cables? Give me a folding proteins story any day over folding cables. Last I need this to be is PcCaseTechExtremeHardwareForumz.net.
Goal 1 is not at 100% failure. Considering any candidate needs 51% of the vote and Nader has, say, 4% of it, he's part of the way there. Will he win this year? No. But I guarantee if Nader didn't get so many votes last year, he wouldn't have as much press, and people would know less in general about 3rd party candidates.
It's not a waste. It's just a first step. The definition of success is not presidential victory this year. It's a change of the system. If you never take that first step how do you expect it to change?
Well, luckily since it is a 64-bit architecture it should be no problem to run Nintendo 64 games either. Let me just solder Mario 64 to my motherboard. See, I'll sohw you, it's easy, just take the game and put it here and the----//NO CARRIER

No thanks, I'll pass.
Anyone else feel that way?
In one precinct, Bush's tally was supersized by a computer glitch

THE COLUMBUS DISPATCH
A computer error involving one voting-machine cartridge gave President Bush 3,893 extra votes in a Gahanna precinct.
Franklin County's unofficial results gave Bush 4,258 votes to Democratic challenger John Kerry's 260 votes in Precinct 1B, which votes at New Life Church on Stygler Road. Records show only 638 voters cast ballots in that precinct.
Matthew Damschroder, director of the Franklin County Board of Elections, said Bush received 365 votes there.
The remaining 13 voters who cast ballots either voted for other candidates or did not vote for president.
Damschroder said he received some calls yesterday from people who saw the error when reading the list of poll results on the election board's Web site.
"It's why the results on election night are unofficial," Damschroder said.

No, the Apple movie is saveable. Just right clicky link here.
I thought I read somewhere that the political debates only accounted for about 38% of the traffic. Might just be a rounding error.
There's still the Weekly Reader poll which has been right 11 of the past 12 times, and carries a more direct correlation.
I've gone through 8-10 sticks for all my own computers and only until the most recent one do I have bad memory. Luckily I have so much that it's never an issue until I have lots of programs open, and even then, only WinAmp skips. I'm too lazy to fix it right now.
The exit polls were still pro-Kerry when most voting ended. CNN revised its numbers after midnight.
Or you could marry one.

Seems like this link at Drudge is what you're looking for. It is, unfortunately, not really informational.
Later on I was linked to the NY Times map, which I liked a little bit more for different reasons.

My guess is they folded their network cables a little bit TOO much.
Wrong.

Not really. Just a similar speed as what they promised each company.
