  1. Microsoft down 19 hours? on The Downsides of Software as Service · · Score: 1

    that has to be a good thing, no?

    so.....how much is Dvorak or his publisher paying for his bi-weekly plug on slashdot?

  2. products are not poor, they are sh#t on Microsoft Bought Sweden's ISO Vote on OOXML? · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    prove me wrong fanboys, after you're done rebooting

  3. his replacement will be so much better on U.S. Attorney General Resigns · · Score: 1

    yes, I am sure the fearful leader is ready to put an honest man in place to replace this pile of steaming Attorney General

    this will be better now, laws will be enforced and observered.

  4. nothing to see here on Astronomers Find Huge Hole in Universe · · Score: 1

    move along earthlings, you are not worthy of viewing this area

  5. Adaptive means on MS Seeks Patent On Virtual Fuzzy Dice · · Score: 1

    that this covers anything anyone else makes that does anything, see it's adaptive.

  6. huge opportunity for the developers on Top 25 Hottest Open-Source Projects at Microsoft Codeplex · · Score: 1

    to learn how MS will use them and leave them left in the desert when the next shiny object shows up on their periphery

    ms has the attention span of dog, and they care about "outside entities" like a dog cares about a bone.

  7. it's very refreshing to on NYT Confirms Movie Studios Paid to Support HD DVD · · Score: 1

    see that the winner of the oh so critical DVD wars will get there on MERIT as opposed to simply buying off the judges.

    which leads me to ask, where's my 1500 bucks to convert to HD-DVD? time for MS to come after us consumers....I'll take 1500 to go with Blu-Ray too. come on Sony, step up to the plate.

  8. Innovating the network on Playing Music Slows Vista Network Performance? · · Score: 1

    this is a feature, and a damn fine one if you ask me.

    anything that prevent windows users (aka, Bill's serfs) from connecting to my internet is a GOOD thing

    right?

  9. so much for respect being earned on Linux Foundation Calls for 'Respect for Microsoft' · · Score: 1

    so this would be a freebee to MS? out of the goodness of our hearts?

  10. Re:it's MS Linux isn't it? on AMD Backs openSUSE with Huge New Infrastructure · · Score: 0, Troll

    you think an MS Linux being the "leader" is gonna be "linux winning"?

    that's hilarious.

    linux will be a steaming pile by the time MS is done with it.

    I can spell BSD

  11. Does it come with or without lead? on Chinese Pirates Copy iPhone, Make Improvements · · Score: 2, Insightful

    how about PCB's?

    Is this just another delivery vehicle for poison? another method China is going to use to aff load their toxic waste on other locations?

    Was the assembler a 4 or 5 year old? were they whipped or beaten to meet their quota?

    are the knobs make from endangered shark fin?

    Is the default background screen a shot of the massacre at Tienemen?

    just curious about yet another thing we're supposed to be impressed with the chinese for. nothing to see here, move along.

  12. Re:confused.... on MythTV Scheduling Service Reveals Pricing · · Score: 1

    everyone loves selling the same thing to the same person over and over and over.

    especially bits. replicating those is pretty easy.

  13. it's MS Linux isn't it? on AMD Backs openSUSE with Huge New Infrastructure · · Score: 0, Troll

    so SUSE takes a big share of the market, it's just ms windows box being swapped for a microsoft linux, or am I missing something with the ms-novell thing?

    seems to me that novell and suse must end up in a slag heap for linux to "win"

    AMD doesn't care who owns linux, I guess they bet MS-Novell will sell lots of linux where everyone else failed

  14. McDonalds of software on Microsoft Claims a Billion Windows Installs by End of 2008 · · Score: 2, Funny

    just as healthy too

  15. Browser to setup IP? on Does Comcast Hate Firefox? · · Score: 1

    since when did anyone need a browser to setup comcast?

    I got a modem from comcast, I took my Apple Airport and plugged it in, and it worked via the normal Airport admin application.

    NOW, I cannot argue that comcast sucks real bad and seems to care not one iota about it's customers, but that's different that saying my mac can't connect cause they forced me to use IE.

  16. I await tomorrow's on iPhone Battery Replacement An Unwelcome Surprise · · Score: 1

    hack job on the iPhone! this is so predictable, yet so entertaining.

    the iPhone is really a fantastic thing. here I am being amazing over and over yet I keep reading about how I should be irritated

    people, listen up. I have one, it's the best phone I've had, period. it's also the best PDA I've had, period. it's also the best portable muisic and video player I've ever had, period.

    and it's all in one package.

    you may not need one, but that doesn't mean there is something wrong with *it*

  17. those shoes tied the room together on The Man Who Went Through 11 Xbox 360s · · Score: 1

    apologies to the coen brothers

  18. Re:what's an OLPC on No OLPCs for Cuba, Ever · · Score: 1

    so Syria cannot code for the worlds children.

    perhaps they will someday join the civilized world and they can begin coding.

  19. what's an OLPC on No OLPCs for Cuba, Ever · · Score: 0, Troll

    For those of us not in the Linux fanboy club, could someone provide an explanation as to what OLPC actually stands for?

    Bonus answer would by why anyone would give a rat's behind that Syria can't participate?

    I am SURE Syria is just BUSTING at the SEAMS with Open Source developers making huge contributions to the source tree, right? so sad all their hopes and dreams are dashed by US policy.

    Maybe Syria and Cuba can sign up and work on Red Flag Linux?

  20. FUD on Corporate IT Hanging Up on Apple's iPhone · · Score: 1

    the world must be deeply afraid of the iPhone for this amazing amount of FUD to be generated.

    hey, YOU ALL KNOW YOU WANT IT. Admit it. it's ok.

    and unlike Ubuntu on Dell, Apple might even allow you to have one.

  21. When it runs on my Mac on Microsoft Pleads With Consumers to Adopt Vista Now · · Score: 1

    I still won't downgrade to it.

  22. wow, apple creates a product that on No iPhone SDK Means No iPhone Killer Apps · · Score: 1

    doesn't require an SDK to develop to it.

    and developers are bitching? sorry, don't buy it.

  23. Windows 2013 will be late on Next Windows To Get Multicore Redesign · · Score: 1

    2015 at the earliest

    wait for it, it's gonna be hot, and work with the zune too.

  24. being male and the medical system on A Side Effect of Testosterone Poisoning · · Score: 1

    maybe being male is actually a disease, like alcoholism.

    wonder if it will be covered by insurance....

  25. MS Panels also use tabs on Apple Sued For Using Tabs In OS X Tiger · · Score: 1

    or is that abuse tabs?

    anyway, how can they now sue apple after everyone has used tabs for at least a decade?

    hell, OS/2 had tabs. and it's been dead as longer than windows and of course, BSD.
