Say, was there a website for the project that the guys mentioned on this show? You know, the one where some people take images from real life and put them in the isometric videogame view? The whole idea seems really interesting.

Me and Comrade M claimed this orbiting bucket of bolts months ago on Everything2, Russia's been nice enough to let us stay here, and now some corporate jerk decides to award trips here with out my consent?
Prepare my Ion Cannon! I'm going to transform into Senshi Red and take some names! ------------------------
1)Why didn't they say they were going to do this *during* the trial? "See,we're not a big,mean,monopoly! We're going to release a product for the competitor's OS!"
2)How much will it cost? One of the big turnoffs about MS products is that their prices are extreemly high. Will they try to price MS Office for Linux at a lower cost to attract more customers? ------------------------
My friend in Philadelphia,Brian Santora,went down to the Phila. Convention Center with my cousin to "tease the Republicans".In other words,they stood on the grounds and called the people there bizzare combinations of gibberish like "Whiped-cream-eating Republicans!".Funny as hell,and completely benign,but they still got kicked out.Funny though. ------------------------
by shipping products first and works to define standards that will be established later.
Don't you think you should create the standard before creating a product based on it?Kinda makes more sense that way,at least to me.As for immolating Microsoft,don't dooooooooo that!You'll kill of a bunch of decent programmers that way!:) ------------------------
Hey,don't diss the mouse wheel!I've found that little bugger to be a big help when scroling through Slashdot.Who ever inventerd the damn thing,thanks! ------------------------
Perhaps they should ditch the ancient "Where do you want to go today?" slogan with "Microsoft:What we can't innovate,we assimilate!" ------------------------
The Kremlin in LEGO!I can see it now!All I'd need is lotsa red bricks,some yellows(Onion domes),etc. and I'm set!That and Mir done in LEGO would look awesome upstairs. ------------------------
This and a bionic claw, and superhero fantasies are mine!
Ah,well I know what you are really up to Rob!You're going to get these implants,become a Borg,and assimilate us into your cult of personality!I knew it!CmdrTaco is part the world's second biggest conspiracy!(We all know that the largest is the GNUist....oops.There Is No Conspiracy -tm-)We must destroy him now before we all become drones under his complete and total control! ------------------------
but in contrast to the 4-step point and click interface that the current Commercial OS's have it really can't compare on usability.
Corel Linux anybody?I'm staring at MaximumLinux May/June 2000 page 34 as I write this and it say,ahem:"There are four-count 'em-four steps to the installation:'user name','install type','partition information',and 'confirm install'". ---------------------------------------- -------- ----------------

You forgot the no-server issue.That kind of bites.I know there's the bandwidth issue,not wanting all the bandwidth to be sucked up by "JohnDoe.com",but there has to be a way to prevent this,as they have shown us they can put caps on user bandwidth. And the fact the network goes down spontaniously.Had this happen when I was playing Starcraft with 5 other people.I probably pissed them all off too.
...Those drunks, fags, lesbians and incompetents in southern Utah shouldn't whine so much.
If I wanted to hear shit like this sentence I could of walked over to my high school.Intelligent people create clever arguments to fire back against their enemies.Intelligent people do not use the common American steriotypes as convenient swears.So,are you intelligent or just another Katz-bot?I'll leave it up for everyone else to decide.
