  1. Son of a Bitch! on Blackboard Buys Moodlerooms and Netspot · · Score: 1

    When blackboard bought WEB CT, we were all aboard on moving to the blackboard collaboration, till the cost doubled during the planning phase. We went to Moodle rooms for a more cost effective approach.....guess they adopted the Microsoft model, buy everyone that is a competitor and phase them out.

  2. Re:Why release a new one? on Why Microsoft's Keeping the Next Xbox Under Wraps · · Score: 1

    I would hope that they will give the Game devs a heads up before announcing the 720. So they can stop or finish development on 360 games before the announcement. who wants to buy a game for a dying console?

  3. Why release a new one? on Why Microsoft's Keeping the Next Xbox Under Wraps · · Score: 3, Interesting

    The current Xbox 360 is still generating massive amounts of revenue, http://blogs.technet.com/b/microsoft_blog/archive/2012/01/12/xbox-360-extends-win-streak-to-12-straight-months-with-banner-holiday-sales.aspx, if they introduce a new platform, it will kill off the current version and forego the millions in additional revenue by extending the life of the 360. only when sales start to slump will the 720 be announced.

    was about to say the same thing. The Wikipedia entry makes my head hurt, like watching 'Lost' for the first time in the middle of the 2nd season, i throw my hands up in the air and say "WTF?".

    Thanks, not that FOX news makes up stories, skews facts, is bias, and for the most part completely retarded. Just wanted to see some other source confirm it.

    If NASA starts selling it software , there is bound to be some troll out there saying they invented it, and sue NASA for copyright infringement.

    'Apparently it has nothing to do with network management. It's a tool to get more revenue from developers and customers.' I think everybody on the planet already knew this.

  15. too bad i switched to chrome....... on Mozilla Partners Up With LG To Combat Apple and Google · · Score: -1, Redundant

    used to love firefox, now its so bloated and non functional, moved on to chrome so they can steal my info, but at a much faster pace.

    In that when you go to a store, they will tell you, that doesn't work on a MAC, but it does on Windows.

  17. Reader only on Should Microsoft Put Office On the iPad? · · Score: 1

    Every one i know that actually has an iPad only wants to read documents not create them (basically what comes through e-mail), the other 95% of the time they use their iPad \ iPhone for video games.

  21. Re:Sony: on Sony's New CEO To Look Beyond Hardware · · Score: 1

    This has left a bad taste in the mouths of current generations, Sony will need 5-10 years to win those customers back if at all. their only hope now is to stay afloat long enough to for people to forget these past atrocities while maintaining the same level of decent hardware. If they continue down the path of alienating its customers, there will be a wikipedia page telling the story of the rise and fall of SONY.

  23. Plenty of 3rd world countries have them...... on Ask Slashdot: Where Are the Open Source Jobs? · · Score: 0

    Countries that refuse to buy into the Microsoft "FUD" as you call it, have plenty of jobs paying poor wages, and have a lack of basic 1st world luxuries such as clean drinking water, working sewer systems, and medical facilities. They all cut cost with open source products. The fact that you are looking in "local paper's Sunday classifieds" sounds as if you out of touch with reality. You have to be willing to travel / move for something as nich as open source. And contract jobs are how you get a foot in the door to show of your skills. So please take that advise and stay away from the Microsoft Empire, the last thing i need is some snot nosed OSS turd telling me how well "linux could do that better than Microsoft" and only produce Vaporware as proof.

  24. Bullying is part of life......... on Oklahoma Politician Wants To Tax Violent Video Games · · Score: 1

    Anti bullying measures? WTF is that supposed to be , a slush fund for political campaigns? Kids need to learn how to deal with bullies not have some one intervene all the time. If your kid killed themselves, then YOU were just a bad parent. And why are you taxing Mature and Adult Only games? these are not meant to be played by your parent-less child. Why should I have to pay for your shitty parenting?
