It's bad if they're on Xbox Live, which is a private, paid for network where the users are paying for reliability and consistency in a level playing field (ie no wall hacks). No one is going to go through the time or expense to look into the intended use of every hacked console. If a hacked console doesn't go on Xbox Live, then there is no issue.
Question marks are often used in news headlines to make a libelous statement look more like a question, to avoid litigation. That's not the case here, but that is the origin.
Rumour has it that the goatse guy is really Michael Bay and Shia LaBeouf (you mean that's *not* a girl's name???) got the inside track before casting for the film started.
No, that's not right...Chuck Norris' beard actually deflected the bullets in a *failed* assasination attempt. Kennedy's head exploded out of shear amazement.
I bought an HP desktop recently to serve out music & TV shows to my Xbox 360 and it came with Vista. It offers some polish versus XP, but no more functionality, aside from Windows Media Center. At the end of the day, music still gets saved to the music folder and videos get saved to the videos folder.
Joseph Campbell (the guy that inspired George Lucas in developing the Star Wars mythos) used to talk about places of worship having high ceilings for that reason, to draw you up to the sky.
Verizon does offer 50mb FIOS, but it's expensive. I get their 10mbit service for 40 bucks a month. I think I get 1mb upstream last time I checked. I can double my bandwidth to 20mb for an additional $10/mo. The prices go up exponentially from there. Meanwhile, Comcast around here charges $42 for something much less than 10mb...and that's only if you subscribe to cable TV, otherwise, you pay $50/mo. It's just insane to download the entire Cream discography (legally through Urge) and watch the progress bars fill up in only a few minutes.
The film industry has quite a few odd nicknames for things...the trailers that house the actors are called "honey wagons." Interestingly enough, that's also what septic tank pumpers call their trucks, so the metaphor isn't entirely off.
My Xbox 360 is a computer. A very specialized one that is much more powerful than my desktop or laptop. It sits under my TV and is small and quiet. And, it's partly subsidized by Microsoft, so it's far cheaper for me, too. The best part...it's one fixed standard, aside from this hard drive issue (hint, screw you if you don't have a hard drive), so developers can develop for one fixed set of hardware.
Some people have tried the generic stuff and found that it tastes like ass compared to Coke or Pepsi. But then again, not all metaphors bear close examination.

Yeah, have fun taking your MacBook Pro to Boston :-)

You'll get over it.

There's a fine line between Funny and Insightful, and you...you are skating on it Sir.
There are no sides in a war, only interests.
Yes, but it's better than dying and shitting your pants involuntarily.
What would happen today is that the bullet would be deflected by Chuck Norris' beard...Lincoln's head would explode out of shear amazement.

The ideas set forth in the First Amendment of the US Constitution should ideally apply to all citizens of the world. Discuss.

I think you can get a ratio of 1/3 through inbreeding. Not that I'm implying anything :)

/raises hand. I went as far as ordering an Apple TV unit and then I sent it back. OK, so maybe I was the only one.

I blame Johnny 5 for this.

I'm running out to the ATM machine right now so I can put down a deposit at EB Games.
As long as you can reticulate them, of course.
I heard there were only about 6 brazillian people in the world.

There are people who choose not to vote or participate in the political system for religious reasons. Have fun with that little nugget.
