    Q: On what platforms will StarCraft: Ghost be available?
    A: We are currently developing the game for multiple console systems. Further details regarding platform/country specifics will be released in the months ahead.


    Your quote also mentions Sony, another big name down at the cracker factory. You're chosing an evil that incites a slashdot mob. Troll

    Oh God. Get over it, Microsoft doesn't control EVERYTHING. They actually have wanted to get back into consoles, where they started. Besides, it's being developed for MULTIPLE PLATFORMS.

    I hate you for being so elitest. I hate myself for writing in caps.

  13. Re:Servers, yes, Desktop, no... on Linux/Apache Wins TCO Survey · · Score: 1



    Linux will never be on the desktop if it doesn't get easier to use. Most users don't know what a command prompt is, so how could they understand a linux console? There's not enough robust software to use and the choice between desktop environments (KDE and Gnome) would confuse people. Don't even get me started on the fact that there are multiple desktops...

  18. Only Good Application on New Two-Headed Hard Drive Intended To Secure Web Sites · · Score: 1

    The only reasonable application I could think of this is for file sharing on a closed network (such as a schools) where files need to be shared out and distributed and still maintain the security to lock out script kiddies. I cant see this being used for anything other than static pages (I know redundant). While this techonology is meant to be used for web purposes, I think that the majority of the people that buy hard drives with two heads will find much better uses for it in networks that need to protect data that still needs to be read. Yes, most of this can already be done in software, however, I usually tend to think of the hardware solution as the best.

  25. Re:interesting but a little late... on AOL Time Warner Files Anti-Trust Suit against MS · · Score: 1

    There's a simple way to delete IE for the common user. Just delete the Desktop Icon. Install New Browser. Set Browser to handle all web surfing needs. Easy as pie. Netscape is such a pain to deal with however. I use it on my linux partition and I hate it because I never know if I'm actually connected or not, since it just keeps cached pages on consistently (granted, this is probably an error on my behalf).

    Why should Microsoft not include their own product in their os? Granted, Microsofts bullying of OEM's not to include Netscape in the past is foul play, but not allowing Microsoft to include IE in their OS is a bad move. There is no way IE is worth 30% of all of Windows XP or 2000, it's more like 10%.
