  1. Designtechnica has a review too on The Gameboy Micro Reviewed · · Score: 1

    Designtechnica has posted a pretty good review too: Designtechnica's Game Boy Micro Review". Personally this is way too small for me.

  2. Silly iPod owners on Online Music Stores Compared · · Score: 1

    I find it amusing that iPod owners are so defensive. Its as if those stuck with their precious iPods are finding a way to justify iTunes and its proprietary format. I thought the article was well written and covered everything I was interested in. Yes, music you download from eMusic works on an iPod, but music downloaded from itunes ONLY works on an iPod, and I think that was the authors intent. BTW I thought a new patch for iTunes prevented Rhapsody users from playing Apple formatted music?

  3. What an Idiot on XBox Released · · Score: 1

    It is very clear in this article that these analysts do not know what they are talking about. Afer today there is no question in my mind that Xbox will be a success. Has Microsoft ever lost at anything they put their full weight into? Not likely. People will be converging from the high cost of computer gaming and move to the Xbox as a cheaper, beter alternative. The analysts mention in the Salon article are traditionalists, following whats tried and true not whats state-of-the-art and new.

  4. This is actually SAD!! on Massachusetts Holds Out On MS Case · · Score: 1

    This is great news. At least there is a ray of hope. The sad thing is that even if Microsoft loses, consumers lose as well because there is no good alternative OS out there for the :average" computer user. Me? Personally i would be just fine with this, I have my Linux baby!

  5. Re:Wasting our time on Athlon XP1900+ -- Faster Than A 2GHz P4? · · Score: 1

    Well, money wise, it is not smart to keep upgrading your processor each time a new one comes out. Consumers will tire of this very quickly.

  6. Wasting our time on Athlon XP1900+ -- Faster Than A 2GHz P4? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    The MHz race is getting a little rediculous at this point if you ask me. Processors are coming out faster than we can keep up with. Compitetion used to be good for the consumer, now it is abusing the consumer. People will want to stop upgrading at all for fear of missing a newer processor.

  7. Will the iPod last? on The Guts Of An iPod · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I think this could be Apple's attempt to promote their personal computers through a device that requires an Apple. Intel has been trying to do this with their consumer electronics line for the past 2 years. They failed miserably. Hopefully Apple does it right this time.

  8. I bet this will not last 4 months. on HP Officially Announces 40g MP3 Stereo Component · · Score: 1

    Personally, I don't think this product will last. Someone could just a buy a computer that does the same features for a lot less. $999 is a pretty steep price too. If company's want to make a lasting product that incorporates computer functions into a home theater entertainment center, they will have to offer something new and exclusive.

  9. Need to play cards right on ReplayTV 4000 Series Shares TV Over Net · · Score: 0

    This product sounds good. I hope ReplayTV does not go down the tubes like they did before. They need to market their product more.

  10. Cell phone that uses Bluetooth technology on Cell Phone Syncing w/ Your PC or PDA? · · Score: 1

    Designtechnica.com will be doing a review of the new Motorola Timeport 270 cell phone. This phone can be used as a PDA and uses Bluetooth technology to sync your computer with the phone. Make sure to look for it on www.designtechnica.com. As Far as I know, this is the only phone to use bluetooth technology in the U.S. so far.

  11. OMFG on Star Trek Enterprise Tidbits · · Score: 0, Troll

    Is it just me or does slashdot post news that belongs to other sites. I submit news and articles related and they never get posted, yet this silly article makes it? WTF is all I have to say.

  12. i didn't Know... on Microsoft Research Turns 10 · · Score: 0, Troll

    That Microsoft had their own research group. No wonder they have such innovtative products.

  13. Brilliant Idea on AMD To Hide MHz Rating From Consumers · · Score: 1

    This is a fantastic idea and should have been adopted a long time ago. Car manufacturers don't name their cars after the engines in them, the same should be done with PC's. In my opinion I think computers as a whole should have standardized class ratings, such as Class A computer: Has a 500 mhz or higher processor, 16mg or higher video card etc..the class ratings can be updated every year or so.

    This would make it so much easier for software manufacturers to develop for computers...similar to consoles, but with the multi purpose of the PC.

    Lawyers are just getting bored if you ask me.

  22. The truth on Japan Will Have To Wait For Xbox · · Score: 1

    The truth is that Microsoft will be using the Xbox's intended for Japan as backups in case the demand is to great. I suspect that if the launch is short of spectactular and the excess systems are not needed, then the Japanese launch will go on as previously scheduled.
