  1. Re:Not silly? on When a PDA is better than a GBA for Gaming · · Score: 1

    Anyone who thinks a PS2 or XBox can even come close to what a good computer can do is completely insane. No contest.

    Apart from the tons of non-game applications, a computer just flat out has better resolution. Its a barrier that consoles just cant break. Even HD compatable games dont have nearly the same resolution of a good gaming computer.

    Also, the defaiult input/interfaces of a console cant possibly match that of a computer. I have a 52" HDTV, XBox and PS2. They are fun, and for light silly brain candy games its good. When I want to seriously play somthing engrossing, I goto the computer. Fast food is ok, but I prefer a nice juicy steak.

    I dont remeber a Dist. of any Linux that came out and would not work, at *all.

    But Scumsoft would *never be that bad, so why would I ever bring that up?..

    Anyone still have a copy of DOS 4?. heh

    When someone comes to my door talking about religon, I can just close my door mumbling somthing about satin...

    Spammers get and pay for lists of e-mail addresses, then use *someone elses mail service to spam. If the inital spamming does not take the server down, the flames will.

    Thats like the Religous finatic breaking into your house and making $900 in phone calls.

    "Penalties include up to 12 months in jail and fines of $15,000"

    Excellent. Let the spammer slime rott.

    Spammers make it next to impossible to start up free web based mail clients which support under 100 people. As soon as a spammer gets a whiff of what you have they rape your servers until die. Then, like locust, they move on. You wind up spending more time protecting yourself against spammers than you do with the web client.
