  1. I guess I got the 'good' macbook. on Apple's Growing Pains · · Score: 1

    Picked up a black macbook as soon as it was available (yes, I paid the $150 color tax), slapped in 2 gigs of ram from newegg and use it no less than 8 hours a day ever since. No problems, no quirks, and no fires. I guess I got the good one.

  2. a better solution.. on Artists Protesting Single-Song Downloads · · Score: 1

    Better solution for the consumer: Don't buy music from these artists at all. And I'm not talking about stealing the 'music' either. Skip it.

  3. Re:Don't these people have anything better to do? on Longhorn M4 Build Review · · Score: 2, Informative

    it's not a fake, it's a real beta/alpha piece of software - right down to the 180 day license agreement.

    I couldn't get it to go on VM-ware (wouldn't see my VM disk file as a valid disk to install on) so I will just have to leave it at that.

  4. Re:Stop bitching on Do 'Bandwidth Bullies' Abuse Their Positions? · · Score: 1

    i pay my cable modem access fees to get blazing speed all the time/ and ANY time i feel like it. If there isn't enough downstream bandwidth, THE PROVIDER needs to get more bandwidth, I'm not going to worry if everyone else has had their turn at the bandwidth merry-go-round.

    >Buy UUNet stock. You cant (yet). But you can buy Worldcom's (the parent company) stock (WCOM).

  6. Should read like this.... on Netpliance Ban I-Opener Mods · · Score: 1

    Instead of this:

    >It appears that they will no longer sell their products without the service and they have renderd the devices immune to modification.

    It should read like this:

    It appears that they will no longer sell their products.

    Because its yet another ignorant scheme to rip people off with monthly charges for such a stupid device/service.

    They could probably sell these, as is for $200-$225 and still make some money, - by geeks wanting a small footprint Xterm, with a so-so LCD screen.

    I think its time that people stop making these companys rich, by agreeing to such ludicrous monthly service fees.
