  1. K9? on AMD to debut multi-core CPUs in 2005 · · Score: 1

    Hopefully this processor will give AMD some more "teeth" ;)

  2. Nostalgia on OutRun 2 Shines, But Xbox Version In Doubt · · Score: 2, Funny

    I dont usually play many arcade games, but everytime I see a Outrun machine I walk away without pocket change. Outrun was also the first game I played with forcefeedback needless to say I am really looking forward to this sequel. I hope they keep the original tunes. I have some of them as mp3 but I had to stop listening to them while in my car as it would "cloud" my judgement.

  3. Re:think massive on Drooling Over VA Tech's 1100-Node G5 Cluster · · Score: 5, Funny

    They should have bought 237 more G5s, that would have been so 1337.

  4. Re:Hardware requirements on Devil Whiskey - The Bard's Tale Resurrected? · · Score: 1

    I think it`s bigger problem that they have hardcoded the keyboard, I`m on a dvorak keyboard and having to look down and watch the qwerty equivalent is really annoying. Is people in Europe having this problem? It`s my understanding that `z` and `w` is located in diffenent places in for example Germany (where old school rpg is still big) and France, it seems a little shortsighted to limit your market in this way.

  5. Re:Open Source license on Devil Whiskey - The Bard's Tale Resurrected? · · Score: 1

    I`m under the impression that many played the bards tale series on their Amigas. And that many, especially the graphics oriented types switched to Apple after Commodore bit the dust(many stayed on the Amiga of course). Maybe they should have ported DW to the mac, if they are looking to sell 50k units they need to port it to all the mayor platforms that Amiga owners currently use. Since it is based on SDL and opengl already it should be a straight recompile without to many hassles, correct me if I`m wrong.

  6. Re:Whoa. on Matrix Revolutions Trailer Released · · Score: 5, Funny

    "Unfortunately no one can be told what`s in the trailer ... ..They must experience it for themselves"

  7. is the Music Store webbased?? on Apple is Porting iTunes to Windows · · Score: 2, Interesting

    If it is, will they port webcore too or will they rely on internet explorer for HTML rendering??

  8. nothing new on The Rutan SpaceShipOne Revealed · · Score: 1

    I found a scale model of this in my girlfriend`s drawer years ago, even had a built in scale engine, it will never reach space though, it vibrated too much. My girlfriend claimed it could take a girl to heaven, not far enough to win the X-prize I guess.

  9. Re:AMD doing memory??? on AMD and Fujitsu Spin Off Static Memory Giant · · Score: 1

    384 MB ought to be enough for anybody

  10. Wild guess on Red Hat 9 To Be Released March 31 · · Score: 1

    I don`t read Redhat related mailing lists so my guess is as good as anyones, but maybe they are breaking binary compatibility in a big way, lets say additions to KDE and Gnome or maybe they just decided not to skip GCC 3.3 in favour of GCC 3.4 ???

  11. patents on Browser Cookie Patent · · Score: 3, Insightful

    I think much of the problem would go away if the USPTO had to pay the lawyer cost for every patent they granted that didn`t hold up in court, that way even a small company would dare challenging a big one if they KNEW that they were right. Furthermore the PTO would have to be more careful in handing out patents. Just an idea ;).

  12. speed on 8.6 GB Internet? · · Score: 1

    how long will it take before we have hard drives that can deliver enough data to satiate this kind of bandwidth???

  13. Re:Sigh on 8.6 GB Internet? · · Score: 3, Funny

    after you watch those films I'm sure your lil bro will be your big bro ;).

  14. Re:Bad Link on The XFree86 Fork() Saga Continues · · Score: 3, Funny

    as long as it isn't $EDITOR im fine. don't want to start any flamewars between Emacs and Vi.

  15. What about Star Trek. on Baldness Be Gone? · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    How will this affect Star Trek??? This could ruin the entire franchise!

  16. Re:No competition! on Satellite Access in Time of War · · Score: 0, Redundant

    most insightful answer ever...

  17. what about decompression??? on Gzip on a PCI card · · Score: 1

    does the article mention anything about decompression? my german is lousy but it seems it doesn't. Is decompression really that fast so that it doesn't need dedicated hardware??

  18. Re:CGI to the rescue? on Spider-Man Has Back Problems · · Score: 1

    special effects better in Daredevil???
    Are you referring to the flickering-light-that-hides-actors-bad-martial-art s special effects??? please enlighten us.

  19. Re:NOT a free trade world on U.S. Jobs Jumping Ship · · Score: 1

    I guess we do as we did last time, make the production more effective just as the US steel industry should have done a long time ago. By the way when China gets richer the people will demand paid health care just as they done in every other country that started making money.

  20. Re:Not in France on Asterix and Mobilix Redux · · Score: 1
