This is definately the ultimate way to rip, go to r3mix.net, read the comparisons...try it.
BTW: Silverweed, I didn't know you posted on slashdot, I just did a search for --r3mix on the page and saw yer name...it really is a shame people don't know about it.
$1699 is not at all expensive for an LCD, we used to have a 22" LCD at work that cost $5000, and that was only a year ago...$1000 is definately not uncommon for a 17" LCD especially at retail stores, but I wonder what kind of refresh rate and general 2d performance goes (visual artifacts etc)...interesting to see where this type of technology will be in a few years when the cost gets way down.
I find myseelf going to only 4 or 5 sites a day sometimes...unless I have been temporarily inspired:)...the it kicks up to 100 or so a day for a few days
The best essay that I've read in a long time, the ticket booth fascists at my local theatre have finally started carding us but luckily some friends of mine work there:). Also I think that these theaters will stop the bullshit because of the great capitalist word, competition. Why should I got to my local 8 screen theater when I can go to Planet Movies with 30 screens all biggere than mine? When I went to see American Pie my 19 year old friend wanted two tickets and the idiot working the counter wanted 2 ids...insane sums it up. I'm pissed, now I get mad more often just listening to Dr. Laura (I think) yesterday and I wanted to kill someone because of her fascist republican ideas, I like Ross Perot he rocks.
