  1. I've actually learned about 4'33"... on Copyright Battle Over Nothing · · Score: 2, Informative

    And it's a piece intended to be performed live, the musician plays nothing but the audience is moving in their chairs, whispering about what's going on, coughing, sneezing etc. and this is the beauty of Cage's piece. It's different everytime.

  2. Their slogan... on Matrox Parhelia Benchmarks and Review · · Score: 1, Funny

    "Matrox's new Parhelia GPU has a slogan behind it that is supposed to deliver the mission statement of the product, High Fidelity Graphics..."

    Hope it's not as shitty as that John Cusack movie.

  3. Re:I disagree.. on Moby Says Techie Fans = Fewer Sales · · Score: 1

    Dude, what are you talking about, I hear moby's crap ass "We are all made of stars" song 3 times an hour when flipping through the radio to avoid the commercials.

  4. A different experience... on Why Are Software Rebates Being Rejected? · · Score: 1

    Well first of all, I apologize for not being able to empathize with your rebate woes as I have recently had an awesome rebate experience with the people from TiVo. I discovered two unopened TiVo units at my local Sears on sale for an incredible price of merely $100 each (the dumb management of the store didn't even know what the hell a TiVo was let alone how much it was worth). Not only were they extremely cheap, they both included forms for a $100 rebate so here I am thinking "Woohoo!!! Free TiVo!" I quickly snag the two machines, take them home call up TiVo customer service and make sure I am eligible for the rebate, which I am informed I was (and even if I weren't, TiVo for a hundred bucks, you can't beat that). I send out the forms and weeks later receive my checks. Not only that, the customer service rep tells me where on the net I can go to learn how to hack into my TiVo. I apologize once again but this time just in case my message sounds too "Pro-TiVo," but with customer service like that, how could you not praise the guys? And I just wanna know, has anyone else had similar experiences?
