I got news for you. MS Windows code is not this ultra rare protected CIA secret you make it out to be.
There are thousands of research institutions, CS Professors, programmer-researchers, and developers who have seen windows' source code partially or in it's entirety. I invite you to do some research on this topic and find out for yourself.
So, where is this utopia? Oh! And dump the necessary registration required to listen (are you listening mp3.com?)."
Sorry, but that's the most retarded thing I've ever heard. Is mp3.com supposed to be a non-profit org? They are berely keeping afloat. Great, lets give away the bandwidth, promotion, ads, everything for free. At the end of the quarter some magic stock market fairy will bump the stock value up and we'll all live happily ever after.
Sonar now has Broadcast Wave support. Broadcast Wave support saves all of the timecode and edit information. Cubase SX (and Nuendo for sure) has support for it.
You can save the project in Broadcast Wave (or TLAudio), and open it directly in Cubase - everything will be placed in the right place without having to realign everything yourself.
I did get the impression that it is being forced down our collecive throats since it has not been adapted quickly enough by the market.
See the thing is, the Manufacturers are reluctant to mass-produce HDTV devices because there isn't enough demand for it, and availability of networks who put out the signal is limited compared to regular stations. Hence we see the inflated prices for HDTV receivers, which can certainly come down drastically if mass-market consumption improved. Since all of the Digital ready devices out there can receive regular signals, I don't see how this is a problem. There are many network shows out there which simulcast shows both in HDTV and the regular way (ex. Tonight Show).
Anything that limits technology is a bad thing.
I generally do not believe the technology is being "shoved down our throats" fast enough. It's not like the regular TV vanilla signal is going to go away anytime soon.
the business model is fucked up. Price the DOS-box accordingly, and separate the games from the hardware. This is like giving mobile phones away for 10 cents and then bringing in the money on charges... totally fucked up as a long term business strategy.
What the hell? Which planet do you come from?
Walk into any mobile phone outlet and see for yourself how they're giving away selected phones for FREE with a yearly contract. That's not a fucked up business model. It's the norm.
You've got to be kidding me. That game was published in 1985. I'm not sure if you were trying to be funny or not, but that has to be the most retarded thing I've heard this year alone.
Game prequels do not count. In most of the cases the "remake" if you will, is continents apart from it's predacessor. We're not discussing Resident Evil and it's sequels. We're talking about games from the dinosaur era being remade, and they are available on certain console. In the same fashion one might nitpick on PS2 titles and say there is no exclusivity since some game developer wrote it on C64 back in Ice Age. So I'll go ahead and ignore the NES references, just because.
Superman appeared in a rather crappy (to put it lightly) Nintendo 64 title. What makes this new Xbox version so much better? (question, not flamebait)
I'll answer your question with a question.
Ford produced the Mustang in 1965. What makes the 2003 model any better?
Isn't that just UT or UT2003 adapted for a console? If so, I might as well run UT on my Quake/MAME cabinet.
Sorry, some people don't have $200-300 dollars laying around to spend on a decent video card to play UT2003. Yes, it will play online via the Xbox Live service, according to M. Rein.
Super Smash Bros. Melee is worth the price of a GameCube console right there, and in a couple months, the GameCube will be getting its own Halo killer, called Metroid Prime.
Hah. Thanks for the laugh. Unless you're 12y/o and like to play PG13 games, then GameCube is for you. Xbox is for the mature crowd who like to blow shit up after a long day at work. As for the Metroid Prime, I'll comment on it when it's out.
funny i've been playing bf 1942 for a couple of weeks now online against real people on the pc, is microsoft going to have that gameplay avaiable in the xbox version. not very exclusive is it
We're discussing Xbox vs. PS2, GameCube. We're not bringing PC gaming into it because that way the whole topic will degenerate into mindless drivel. Why in the world would you bring anything non-console into the argument? It's like comparing FreeBSD to Photoshop. Nice troll. Next time put more effort into it.
And pretty much all of them are available on other systems.
Wrong! Lets see. Here's a list of upcoming Xbox exclusives. Exactly the same count as PS2. Which also has 38. Again, these are EXCLUSIVES.

Lets not forget DOA3 and Halo. Halo alone is worth the price of the console right there. If I had to choose between Halo and 50 PS2 games, the choice would be clear.
Again, I'm not defending piracy or Microsoft. I just tried to point out that Xbox is not a bad console as some of the users make it out to be.

Lets say Enterprise was running Windows NT as an operating system, how frequently do you think the starship would crash?

Yes. Usenet is completely safe.
Is "tappable" even a word , or are you making up stuff?
But what will KDE/ Gnome do if they cannot copy features of Windows? Linux on the desktop will come to a halt!
Longhorn is still scheduled for 2003. They are just not going to release it's server flavor. This article was never about the desktop.
Sorry, but that's the most retarded thing I've ever heard. Is mp3.com supposed to be a non-profit org?

Sorry pal. It doesn't work that way.
Windows has nothing to do with it. I tried to click the link with Windows 2000 running Phoenix 0.3 and it just refused to let me in.
Only IE can access it. Sucks to be them. I guess they view the Open Source users as non-consumers. And the site is running java for fuck's sake.
box - boxen
neuros - neurosen
One would think he mummified Big Macs in a grand trubute to Ron McDonald. I smell a lawsuit over the wording of this article.
But analogue ripping is at 1x only
If everyone ripped just 1 SACD via analog out and converted said album to mp3s, you would have millions of those still out there to download.
Hoep u got 10 bux lol

You can save the project in Broadcast Wave (or TLAudio), and open it directly in Cubase - everything will be placed in the right place without having to realign everything yourself.
And Cubase works better on a Mac than on a PC.
Was that easy enough for you?
I believe he was quoting the parent. he just forgot italics, the paragraph and the quotes.

What do you have against DTV/HDTV?
Maybe because Anime generally encourages pedophilia. It's a gateway genre which turns people to more hardcore stuff like Hentai and Gadjin (sp?).
Just my $.02
It was a humorous comment (as in "right to bear arms to kill the EULA abuser a.k.a. the ISP dude")
I know my Constitution, thank you.
The right to bear arms?

I'm not going to bother explaining why you come across as a retard.
Scroll up and read the grandparent, dipshit.
What the hell? Which planet do you come from?

Check your facts next time.

Sorry, you're bashing some 100 game developers under the Microsoft umbrella. XBOX happens to have a very good selection of games.
How do I know this? Because I own one.
Give credit where it's due. This is not "Linux vs. Windows" discussion so you can freebase on your own rage. Pay attention.
