    Japanese anime has plenty of new original stories. Like a girl running down the street with a slice of toast in her mouth, and then crashes into a boy...
    Invaders attack, and a untrained teen jumps into a robot fighter cockpit and...

    Ok, so they only have two plot lines. That's twice as many as Hollywood.

    Maybe they could go the Negima route. It started as a manga, which they turned into a TV anime series, which was turned into a manga, which was turned into a TV anime series.

    You don't have much faith in the spending power of a Congressman. Watch them build a billion dollar bridge between two abandoned igloos, 10 feet apart.

    Nope. It's caused by Global Warming, which is caused by man. Everything that happens, or doesn't happen, is caused by Global Warming.

    Since this trojan shows that the Earth hasn't cleared its orbit, does that mean that Earth is no longer considered a planet?

    A few years back, I saw a NCR machine using a PDP-8A as a controller. It worked, so why replace such an expensive machine.

  21. Re:Why did IBM need an outside OS? on MS-DOS Is 30 Years Old Today · · Score: 1

    IBM didn't want to spend an ungodly sum to develop an operating system for a small volume product. They didn't expect the PC to become so popular so fast. It was designed to fill a niche in their product line that some of their customers wanted filled.

    MS-DOS was based on CP/M. CP/M command line was based on assorted DEC operating systems (rt11 mostly, IIRC).

  23. Re:DOS is crap, but DosBox is awesome. on MS-DOS Is 30 Years Old Today · · Score: 1

    MSDOS wasn't compatable with CP/M. They used different CPU's, and you could not run CP/M programs on MS-DOS. Those CP/M programs that ran on MS-DOS were converted/rewritten. It wasn't a simple process.

    Now that they don't have to spend the money on space, they can buy more wonderful art, like they have in the past: "Photo of a Plastic Jesus Status in a Bottle of Urine", "Black and White Gay Porn", "Madonna Painting Smeared with Elephant Shit", and "Signed Urinal". All wonderful things they have already paid for.

    Why waste tax money on useless science when you can buy art like this?
