I stopped using my laptop the second I got my first Zaurus several years ago, and I've never once been tempted by the netbook craze, as they're just too big!:D
I can't wait till my Pandora arrives in the mail, as the Z is getting a little long in the tooth.
Somebody mod the parent as troll - we've seen many update pictures/videos in the last few months with the final prototype pieces being built and tested. In fact, an update video showing the first fully assembled prototype pandora (with final case, keyboard and gaming controls) should be posted online in the next day or so.
That's about as far from 'vaporware' as you can get; nobody goes to that much trouble and expense to design and build a device only to not bother selling it. And since OpenPandora isn't publicly traded, it's impossible for it to be a pump and dump scam.
I used to work at one company where the machines were all named after serial killers. I was *not* happy about that one. I think it said something about the IT manager there, who I definitely did not get along with.
I lost control of my car once in wet conditions, and instinctively steered into the skid, safely regaining control before I had an accident. I never learned that behind the wheel, I learned it from countless racing games over the years, none of which I played with a wheel:)
So yes, I pretty much already took this finding as fact.:D
And there's a reason for that - Yahtzee is much, much more entertaining when he's being critical, and so whilst he occasionally gives positive reviews (like Psychonauts), most of the time he gives the audience what it wants.
I disagree that Yahtzee's reviews aren't a good measure of whether a game is purchase-worthy; if a game is fun despite the flaws he delights in pointing out then he will make that very clear.
I can't even begin to enumerate everything wrong with that statement.
WHOOOOSH!
Therefore... Slashdot editors are people?
Wait, that can't be right.
Magnifying glass? How about microscope! :D

The pandora is getting mighty close to completion; the last few boxes will be ticked in the next couple of weeks before mass production begins.
10 x 0% accuracy = ? ;D
Um, if that's the case, what does that make Candlejack?
I'm suddenly very w
No, you don't understand - 'flaunt' doesn't mean what you think it does. You flaunt wealth (that you have) and flout rules (that you despise/ignore).
Of course, people got this wrong enough that even the dictionary grudgingly gives flaunt the alternate meaning of 'ignore'.
and, apparantly, successfully. Assholes.
Oh, if only they *were* successfully campaigning against assholes!
I thought you were Patrick!
Arrrr!
I suppose they're "brown shirts" because the politicians shit all over them from on high?
Then how come I see a shitload of them on ebay, when I'm searching for eye-fi?
But... what happens if you refuse to put the water in after the page renders?
Of course their faces aren't obscured! They gave their permission to be shown.

I didn't even notice google was broken because I had RDR running - this article is the first I've heard of it :D

Heh - don't you know that whenever someone fails to indicate their location, 99% of the time they're in the US?
That's not irony, that's eating your own dogfood.

And of course, the Chaser's analysis is still spot on.
The "big bangers" don't mention that for the same reason they don't go around saying the moon is made of cheese.
