Forget the brief case, just carry around your iMac on the stylish handle. Or if your muscles have been weakened by hundreds of hours of reading through Slashdot (or maybe your muscles were never really developed at all and only stuned by violent videogames) you could get the iBooks with their handles.
That must hurt to have your anti-MS arguements (that you can usually get away with on Slashdot no matter how skewed and arbitrary they are) completely TRASHED by John Carmack himself.
Of course, leave it to Canada to completely screw up an article. Their load time 'benchmarks' are skewed since the browsers were tested on some sort of 386 hooked up with a baud modem to the internet. Thanks for the totally inaccurate article.
Gee Slashdot you're really scraping the bottom of the barrel for an anti-Microsoft post this time aren't you.
By the way you don't have to buy a the bundle. For 300$ you can get just the console. Every videogame system in history has had overpriced bundles come with it. Get used to it.
For those of you that couldn't attend the demo personally, there are some pictures (small ones) at the Nvidia Website. Here is the link. Quite frankly I think it's simply incredible that they could render the movie in realtime at any resolution or framerate. As you can see from the pictures, the character still look pretty damn good.
Bravo Nvidia!
If you'll take a look at the benchmarks...

ATi Radeon 8500

If you'll take a look at the benchmarks you'll notice the GeForce 3 still beating the living crap out of every competitor including the '33% faster' ATI Radeon.
Yes, I am unfortunate enough to have AT&T Mediaone cable internet. It was down almost all weekend and then on and off on Monday and today. I suspected it might have been because of the tropical storms in the area but something in my mind told me that they might just be ignorant enough to run IIS and not patch if for the code red worm.
Me: I'm going to see Attack of the Clones
Average Consumer: Is that scary? I don't really like Wes Craven or John Carpenter.
Me: No it's a Star Wars movie.
Average Consumer: You mean Return of the Jedi?
Me: No... attack of the clones.
Average Consumer: Attack of the what??
I have two laptops for two different purposes. My Sony Vaio is PROBLEM city. The hardware is all kinds of messed up. When it is running, it's a decent laptop but an old one at that (P2 300Mhz, 64mb RAM, 1st gen DVD drive). The modem in it is fine however when I'm at home I pop in a LinkSys 802.11b PCMCIA card. It is basically for me to just play around in. The other laptop is a very impressive Apple Titanium G4. This thing is my baby! It is actually for doing work (I work for a photo studio) and does the job very well. I didn't expect a laptop to handle huge image files as it's bigger brother the Power G4 did but I was pleseantly surprised - image editting is a breeze and it's fast enough even for my tastes. I also enjoy how small and light this beauty is.
The fact that the black edges of the monitor don't match up (yes I know, they are different angles, but take a closer look) should be enough alone to prove the fakeness.
A few months ago Philips was making a jacket with pockets for all kinds of cd players, mp3 players, and handheld PDAs. It also featured little compartments for headphone cords to go from the player to the top of the jacket (and did a good job of covering them up as well).
I read the whole thing but I might have overlooked one of the spots. However, where are some of the great puzzle games from Lucas Arts? Sam & Max Hit The Road, Day of the Tentacle, etc. These were wonderful games!
I would think that if Linux was easily available to select on the site (Home/Home Office) that a lot of average people would unknowingly select it. Or even if they meant to select it and didn't know exactly what it is. Imagine that and then a bunch of people without Internet Explorer, Outlook, and Word. Dell would get complaints, probably having to replace the computer, and therefore losing money and resources.

Yes, it's all well and good until Timmy can't open his latest paper for printing because it was saved in Microsoft Word. What a sad day that will be.

Granted, the only cool posts to get now a days will be those containing 31337 such as:

I can't wait to see how much faster 733Mhz Apple G4 processors are at running Photoshop 6 under prime conditions than this new chip. *Rolls his eyes*

I dream every night about having a G4 case with Apple logos all over it running Windows 2000. Man I will be king of cool at the next LAN party!
What's this? An anti-Microsoft joke on Slashdot?

Yep, I agree with Coward, those screenshots look FAKE!
What is Think Geek going to do with all of those Free Dimitri shirts they just got in? Nobody is going to want them now....
