    ok, but theyre not obligated to list the ingredients in the cardboard or plastic wrapper BECAUSE IT WAS NOT INTENDED FOR CONSUMPTION.

  5. Re:Get another Cable Modem on Wireless/Wired Router Solutions for 2 Networks? · · Score: 1

    this is definitely the quickest easiest most secure solution.

    i did exactly this for a while on time warner cable. they only charged us another $22 a month for the extra cable modem rather than charging us for 2 full internet packages.

  6. Re:Dear Sony, Toshiba, LG, Phillips etc. on Blu-Ray vs. HD-DVD Not Over Yet · · Score: 3, Insightful

    again, unlike the old VHS vs Betamax days, this is not a war. there doesnt have to be a winner this time because all of these things are the same size. who won the dvd format war? +r or -r? ahh thats right, they both won and every drive sold now includes both technologies.

    who will win? all of the technology companies. who will lose? us poor suckers who have no choice but to buy a drive that supports all formats.

  8. Re:What comes around goes around... on Jack Thompson Under Investigation · · Score: 1

    listen to the radio interview that PA posted a link to a few days ago. jack says "Hillary Clinton" this and "Hillary Clinton" that and "Hillary Clinton is going to run for president so you better watch out." he says her name a total of about 10 times. he is obviously kissing up to who he sees as the next big thing so he can move to a position of power. it sickens me.

    the problem is that he has now picked a fight with the gamer community. gamers are intelligent, methodical thinkers. gamers are very experienced at getting from point A to point B and avoiding all the obstacles inbetween.

    this guy wont last much longer. hes so stupid and power hungry and emotional that hes going to step on his own feet and self destruct. as you point out, maybe thats not such a good thing though....

  9. Re:XBox vs the PS3? on Microsoft, Intel back HD DVD over Blu-ray · · Score: 3, Funny

    exactly. unfortunately, BOTH formats are going to win because, as with recordable DVD formats, we're all going to have to wait for combo drives that support all formats. all the companies get their licensing fees and we, the consumers, get boned. its cool, im used to it.

  10. Re:Old logic flaw. on MMORPGs Will Change the Future · · Score: 1

    true, but wow costs 15 bucks a month. that will get you about half a tank of gas in the real world.

    online gaming can be much cheaper than real life.

    agreed, this could be VERY practical.

    hold down the ctrl key and-
    x changes to "cut"

    hold down the windows key and-
    e changes to an explorer icon

  15. Re:Tell me about it.... on Casual Gaming the New Hardcore · · Score: 1

    i feel the same way, but i think youre wrong about the last part. i would guess that a lot of people are moving to a more casual approach to gaming.

    i used to be more hardcore... most of my free time was spent playing games. but, as with everything else these days, it became too expensive and time consuming to keep the gaming habit going.

    there used to be about 4 video cards to choose from and they were only 200-300 bucks. there used to be only 2 processor choices. there used to be one choice for RAM.

    there were only a handful of shooter games. a handful of strategery ;) games.

    there were only a handful of gaming sites, and they were not so deep in bed with the game and hardware publishers.

    end result... by the time im done sifting through articles to learn about chipsets, processors, and memory- by the time im done reading reviews and benchmarks and trying to filter out paid bias- by the time i find a game that might be worth playing.... yawn.

    youre absolutely right, but who wants to bother with adapter wire mess or hiding it while youre away from the car or fm frequencies or any of that?

  22. Re:Other Formats? on MP3 Going the Way of the 8-Track? · · Score: 5, Insightful

    yep
    until there is a format that is as universally supported (dvd players, car stereos, ipod type devices, etc) as mp3, or until most/all devices will let you install your own codecs, mp3 is not dead.
