Bios are what a band sends out to magazines and other publications to tell them all about themselves. A self written advertisement or blurb, if you will. It's relationship with a computer, i'm not so sure about. I guess you could type it up on Word?
Wow, thanks. That was very informative. I guess you just see whatever he's allowed you to see in the media. The Pam Edstrom connection certainly is very interesting, thanks again!
Maybe, but it's never been said like that before. That's why I reckon somebody's pulling our leg. I couldn't find anything relating to the real article in FOCUS, just a bunch of random websites hosting the same article.

This is one of the main reasons I don't believe it's true. C'mon, we've all heard Billyboy's droning before, and it is NEVER an attack on it's users like this. I call shenanigans.
Beautifully said. fucking whiney punks, happy being Mr. Superiority until they get a smack in the chops then it's somebody else's fault for not 'understanding them'.
It seems to me you are confusing intelligence with maturity. The problem is, the two often do NOT go together. I met a helluva lot of smart people at uni that were either morally bunkrupt or socially inept. Don't let it get you down. I'm not going to comment on the second half of your post, but just remember, at university age, most people are at the perfect age for being sexually mature, having some semblance of an income, and capable of making decisions for themselves while still being reasonably sheltered from real life, and ultimately, responsible for their own actions (ie; there are no really serious repercussions for drinking heavily, etc). Usually the smarter ones mature and grow out of it. The ones that don't? Well....
It's not really that hard to fix the contact pins permanently. All you do is pull the cover off, remove the cartridge slot and then use a really small flat screwdriver to (one at a time works best) bend the pins on one side toward the centre. I have used this technique on my NES, SNES and N64 successfully. It's kinda hard to explain, but have a look inside and you'll see what to do. Once you've done it though, your console works perfectly for a very long time (until it's time to do it again!) Another problem i've encountered is that the breadboard inside the cartridge itself gets loose over time, so you just open up your cartridge and fix that as well! (if it applies, only about 8 of my 200+ NES carts needed it done, mostly ex-rentals)
Hopefully I won't need luck anymore. I went to put it together on the weekend and the motherboard is faulty, so i've got the shop to swap it with another brand. I hope that'll help.
I loved it, and in fact it was just a media drum up. The "uproar" was a bunch of complaints to the TV sections of newspapers by people that didn't even watch the simpsons. Any oz simpsons fan loved it, because they knew what to expect.
For sure. The scene where frank is looking for his pencils and enters homer's worksation to ask, only to see homer with pencils in his ear, his socks his mouth, man! I was crying watching that.
Man, I just bought one of those today to put in over the weekend. I hope I don't get the same problem... How long did it take before it went bad?

One payment gets you access to the entire suite of XBOX Live games...
Actually, this is a common misconception. There is every chance in the future that some XBL games will have an ongoing cost. Only the few games on launch are free for the time being. MS has already stated that not every game on XBL will be included in the monthly price.
Okay, only two months after. I was just assuming about the UK because they are both PAL. My point still is that a couple of months early here is a couple of months late there, so to me, in relation to the parent's assertion about sales figures and so-called "headstarts" it all comes out in the wash. I know for sure that both the PS2 and XBox were out for at least 8-12 months before the GCN here in Australia, because I ended up buying an XBox after waiting too bloody long for the GCN to be released! Now I got my GCN though, so i'm happy.

Shampoo & styrofoam for me.

Hey, hey, slow down cowboy. Don't make any rash decisions you may regret later... ;o)

I agree. It doesn't seem like his usual smiling, patronising marketspeak. It's also dated from October 1995. Looks pretty dubious to me...
Talk about the pot and kettle. Fuckwit. And it ain't my site, detective.

Thats easy, the shop around the corner from my place sells them. Just remember not to eat them with coke, or KAPOW! Mouth explodies!
Wait a minute, was that a lame joke or an obvious statement?
No, there was more than that. I own Dragon's Lair for the SNES and its a slow side-scroller.

I reckon. Why wate their time with this, when all they need is to start tattooing barcodes on our foreheads. Much more cost effective!

Guy in shop: So, let me guess. Computer programmer? computer analyst? something with computers?
Yep. "See My Vest" should have been nominated for best. song. ever.

Shit, I just remove my shirt and pants, that turns any woman off.
