  2. well DUH on AOL to Enter the VoIP Ring · · Score: 2, Insightful

    The service is free but it's really a Skype clone

    You could say that about more or less ANY VoIP-system.

    Skype does VoIP, so any VoIP-system is bound to be more or less a clone of it.

    duh

  5. Re:How many times do we have to go through this? on Oklahoma Senate OKs Violent-Games Bill · · Score: 1

    Correct me if I am wrong

    this law simply restricts minors from purchasing/renting "violent" games without their parents' knowledge

    it also restricts minors from buying games that any kind of sexual content

  7. Re:Facebook Justification for $25 Mil on Facebook Raises Another $25M · · Score: 1

    how can one need $25m for more or less creating a community with image hosting?

    yeah, they'll probably mostly use it for marketing, and that's fair enough

    but don't say that $25m can be justified by saying "oh, they're hosting images now!!!!11"

  12. Re:Tragedy on Suspend2 Suspended · · Score: 2, Interesting

    suspend and hibernation is at least 5 years behind OS X and Windows

    I know hibernation exists in Windows, but OS X?

    Can you please enlighten me, since I've totally missed this feature in OS X :-/

    I hope you're not talking about Safe Sleep, which is only available in the newer Powerbooks and is not the same thing as hibernation (well, it works the same, but only works on the Powerbooks, where as hibernate works on any Windows PC)

  13. Re:Shared devices on Desktop Replacements and the 11 Pound Pencil · · Score: 1

    I have an MV Ixius (http://www.go-mv.com/)

    17" widescreen, 3.4 ghz p4, dvd-burner, geforce 6800 go, 1 gb ram, 80 gb hd (7200 rpm) and a _REALLY REALLY_ crappy soundcard (my ooold 16-bit soundblaster sounded much better)

    do i use all the features of this laptop? no

    do i move it around? not really

    is it good for applications that require a lot of cpu/io/mem and for games? yes, very much so

    it's good to be able to move it around, although i almost never (when i go somewhere, i take my 15" powerbook)

    and oh, btw, the casing sucks (which looks like the same case as the alien-laptop reviewed). after using it for a while, the black paint comes off

  14. Re:Too Little, Too late? on Intel Unveils New Chips to Battle AMD · · Score: 1
