  1. Mac Playmate?! on What (And Where) Are The Classic Free Games? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Speaking of old mac games...anyone remember Mac Playmate? I remember it was a game where you would get a virtual girl naked by charming the pants off of her. Then she'd open a toy box...filled with sex toys. You'd then just stick random stuff in random places.

    It may not be the best game, but its a classic. Anyone know where that could be found today? I've looked, but I can never find it.

  2. Re:Yahoo not alone on Yahoo To Try To Charge For POP3 Services · · Score: 1

    This is the third mailbox to do this to me in 3 months. First it was another.com and then onebox.com says they are going to charge. Do they really think they'll make money off of email? Get ready for yet another failed internet business idea.

  3. Idiots on The Widening Tech-Savvy Gap · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I do tech support for cable modem access in the midwest. About a third of the time someone needs help, they are actually smart enough to figure things out. They don't need me to hold their hand setting up mail in Outlook Express, they just want the mail server info. They usually have a pretty good idea of whats wrong before they even call me. The rest of my calls are idiots. Most don't understand "Internet Explorer is not your default browser. Would you like to make it your default browser?" Some people come from AOL, and don't understand anything thats happening after they switch to cable modem. Most often though, I find that many people have problems understanding who supports what. I'm always getting calls about monitor problems, hard disk problems or scan disk errors. Sorry dude, your ISP don't cover that. Or they buy an ethernet card from a shady company from Tiawan and they want me to help.
