  1. Re:Of course it crashed.. on Linux (Car) Crashes At Indy 500 · · Score: 1

    Aren't you talking about the Mac?

  2. Re:It has no keyboard. on O2 Xda Atom Exec Review · · Score: 1

    Not really. I have the original atom and when I want to make a phone call I press the phone hardware button and use the touchscreen to enter the number.

    Use my finger most of the time as well.

  3. Re:they need our feedback I think on BBC Links Linux To MyDoom · · Score: 1

    they will just laugh at your feedback...

  4. Re:huzzah! duh! and fallout on Nintendo - Kirby, LAN, Paper Mario, Pikmin 2 · · Score: 1

    When you play a pc game on the LAN you are supposed to each have a copy. If anything the console design is better because at least 4 people can play off the one copy of a game.

  5. Re:Nintendo? Fail? Like junk mail, maybe. on Nintendo - Money, Announcements, Comeback? · · Score: 1

    That is just like my GF. She keeps pestering me to play Eternal Darkness. The wierd thing is she just likes to watch and help out. She also enjoys SMB, MP and Pikmin. I never got into Pikman but she really enjoys it.

    The cube is now setup permanently in the bedroom and often when I get home from work she's playing it. I have almost 40 games now so there is always something for her to try.

    Hanging out for Rogue Squadron 3 to be honest.

  6. Re:Nintendos Secret? on GBA To Control Robotic Gaming Bugs? · · Score: 2
    Seriously, the last thing Nintendo's going to do right now is take a gamble on some insane new technology

    Nintendo have so much money in the bank I don't think gambling on new technology is an issue.

  7. Re:Graphics on Half-Life 2 Delayed? · · Score: 1

    Well from what I have seen of both games I think doom 3 looks better than HL2 now.

  8. Re:Different Markets on Cringely Proposes a Music Sharing Alternative · · Score: 1
    Many of these people would NEVER accquire this music at the current price point of CDs

    That's the whole point. WHY SHOULD they get to listen to it if they were/aren't going to buy it. They listen to it - THEY SHOULD HAVE TO BUY it. WHat a stupid statement that carries bugger all weight. It's ok to steal something if you weren't going to buy it in the first place. Pretty stupid comment to make in the whole scheme of life you know.



    I might steal this mercedes because I was never going to buy one in the first place.

  9. Re:Bullying doesn't cause school shootings... on Slashback: Railing, Blocking, Scoffing · · Score: 0

    That's not even remotely funny, whoever modded this as funny should have their modding ability revoked.

  10. Re:Gratuitous PS2 comparison on Microsoft Earnings Include Xbox Predictions · · Score: 2, Funny

    You do know that when a playstation breaks down and is replaced (which happens often) it is also counted as a sale.

  11. Re:Protecting their Brand. on North Carolina Fights Back Against Lexmark · · Score: 1
    So, perhaps these printer companies should think about building a better product in the first place and then none of this would happen?

    The people will just complain about how expensive printers are. Cheap printers aren't supposed to last 5 years. Consumers need to understand this.

  12. Re:a big deal? on Halo Sells 3 Million, Gets New Machinima · · Score: 1

    The thing is, it was done and done often. Regardless of who initiated the bundle. Halo has been bundled with xbox's in Australia since about 3-6 months after launch.

    I believe that you couldn't get a NES or SNES system without a bundled game back then.
    Utter rubbish. The NES only got bundled with Mario and Duck Hunt years after release. Mario Allstars ended up being available as a bundle with SNES, but Allstars wasn't anywhere near a launch title.

  13. Re:a big deal? on Halo Sells 3 Million, Gets New Machinima · · Score: 1

    Er, Halo has been bundled with hardware for a while now.

  14. Pretty Cool on ESPN Football's Bizarre Viral Marketing? · · Score: 1

    I think this sort of thing is pretty cool. Another interesting way to advertise and I am seriously thinking about getting an XBOX from just viewing that video. Sega, come back to gamecube!!!

  15. Re:arg on Is ROM Collecting Wrong, or Just Misunderstood? · · Score: 1
    I've lost more cds and carts than I have mp3s and roms.

    Well you're pretty useless then. Perhaps you should be a bit more careful...


    what would stop you from losing the piece of license paper anyway... nice logic there.

  16. To be expected on Star Wars Galaxies Technical Difficulties · · Score: 2, Informative

    Nothing runs as expected. Give it a couple of weeks to settle down, and then get back to us.

  17. Re:Anyone find it ironic.... on ATI Talks Game Support, Future Of Graphics Cards · · Score: 1

    yawm... 4 games out of how many have been (or about to be) released.

    would that even total 1%.

    Maybe you should remove your head first...

  18. Re:Anyone find it ironic.... on ATI Talks Game Support, Future Of Graphics Cards · · Score: 1

    Not all of use care about linux though. There aren't even any of the latest games being released on it to make use of high end graphics.

  19. Re:Warning: on Building A Homemade Chess Supercomputer · · Score: 1

    er, well he didn't ask for the article to be posted on /. did he.

  20. Re:The point on Aussie Company Releases Xbox Mod-Chip Designs · · Score: 1

    I'm not up to date on current video cards but when looked at TV output before, they were all shite

    Well that must have been a long time ago. It's just a nVidia card in an Xbox, most nVidia cards have tv out. ATI tv out is better but there is nothing wrong with nVidia's either.

    I wouldn't expect mozilla's performance on a p3 733 to be all that great. probably takes a minute to load...

  21. Re:Peter's portable dismissal on Moore Dissects State Of The Xbox · · Score: 1

    like i have hands like a person who is 6'7". I want something that'll fit into my pocket. I don't think the gba size is all about little 'asian' hands.

  22. Statistics on Senator Orrin Hatch a Pirate? · · Score: 1

    Interested to know the statistics for all the people replying who are using pirated software.

    90% of the people on slashdot have zero credibility when it comes to this. Just like all the whiners about GPL violations that pirate and steal commercial software.

    Thats the real Pot calling the Kettle Black situation.

    I doubt this guy wrote his own website. Should you not be attacking the developer...

  23. Re:Peter's portable dismissal on Moore Dissects State Of The Xbox · · Score: 1

    They can't even make the controllers small. How on earth would they be able to make a hand held device that also had a screen.

    At least they know their limitations!

  24. Interesting Comments there on Nokia Slams GameBoy, Discusses N-Gage · · Score: 1

    I'm 28 and play my GBA on the train to work every day. No one has dared come up to me and told me I was immature.

    I hardly think a 10 year could play all the games. Heck my daughter (who is 9) cannot play (functionally and maturity) all the games we have.

    Don't see me letting her play any mortal kombat games in a hurry.

  25. Re:Innovation? on Game Boy Advance SP Sells 1.1 Million in U.S. · · Score: 1

    Don't forget the size of the thing... Not exactly put in your pocket size...
