You can also add a number to the end of the netstat command to tell how netstat how often to update (in seconds). So "netstat -a 60" will update the stats ever minute.
While I've heard a lot of what's in your post before, (and thought they were interesting) I'd like to bring up two points. 1 - SP1 is already out, has been for months. 2 - Windows 7 is, from what I hear, supposed to basically be Vista v2. I'm sure for a lot of people on/., that is probably a really bad thing. Though for somebody like myself, it might not be too bad. I've used Vista and other than being a bit RAM hungry (OS X can be that way too. As can Linux if you load up the eye candy and use the the latest and greatest WM), it doesn't really seem to bad after you switch off a number of unneeded services and disable UAC.
Fallout 3 and Resident Evil 5 are both slated to come out on the PS3. Portal: Still Alive is a game I'm really on the fence about. It's basically Portal with some new puzzles. They don't add to the story at all. Nothing new with GLaDOS nor the main character from the original.
If a PS3 game doesn't support KBM, blame the developer. Sony has no problem allowing developers use KBM controle. (Just look at UT3) Microsoft, however, won't let developers use KBM for games. Other than the fact that they just recently included KB support for things like the Internet Channel, I have no clue regarding Nintendo's stance.
MGS4 pretty much explained everything that happened in the series, hell they practically held your hand while doing it. I could imagine that people who had never played a Metal Gear (Solid) game before, especially MGS1&2 might be a little confused, but I thought they did a very good job of explaining everything.
Below is a list of RTS games that are available on consoles (as well as PC):
Starcraft/Broodwar: N64
Warcraft 2: Playstation and Saturn
Command & Conquer: Playstation, N64 (3D version)
LOTR: Battle for Middle Earth: XBox 360
Universe at War: XBox 360
C&C4 (and Kane's Wrath): XBox 360
Granted, this list tiny compared to what's available on PC, (and also what I just had on the top of my head) but it shows that you can get an RTS fix and still game exclusively on consoles.
Keeping in mind that the iLiad also supports DRM'd books (Mobipocket to be precise (who are, ironically, owned by Amazon.)). Though both devices let you view plain text files. The Kindle requires you to email PDFs to Amazon for conversion and last I heard, that was rather spotty.
The original Driver (Playstation, Windows, and Mac) had portions of NY, Miami, San Francisco, and LA and was pretty impressive given the technology at the time.
Well, there was the Linux/x86 version. The Mac (OS and OS X)PPC version, the Dreamcast and PS2 ports. And as others have mentioned, the source for the game is GPL'd so as long as you have the horsepower to run the game, a port could be made to just about any hardware.

Have you seen a number of photoshops in your day? Can you tell by the pixels?
From what I've read, driver support for the 64-bit version of XP was atrocious, though I don't have any personal experience with it.

I've noticed that OS X can be rather sluggish at times if you have 1GB of RAM.

People who spell "boy" as "boi" should be dragged out into the street and beaten with a dictionary.
Well, Win3.1 wasn't even part of the NT line. Not to mention that NT3.1 was technically NT1.0
Evan, IE isn't a food.
On the 360, you can disable notifications during movie playback.

You know what ADD stands for, right? Attention Deficit...hey! Let's ride bikes!
Basilisk is a 68K emulator, not PowerPC. SheepShaver seems to be one of the more popular PPC emulators out there.
Both AIM and Yahoo Messenger have support for offline messages.

At least your decoder didn't say "Buy more Ovaltine"

That is something I missed when I moved from Safari to Firefox on my Mac.
