First of all, Sega and Nintendo could never merge. As cool as it would be, Nintendo is on as bad or worse financial trouble than Sega is. That leaves Namco, Microsoft, and EA. EA would do to Sega what they did to Origin, Westwood, etc (destroy it). Microsoft would (almost) hand them a black check and say, go do your thing, but make it XBox only (Sega Xbox?). Namco is where I think most of Sega wants to go. It's the only Japanese company in the hunt, and there is far less risk of things being ruined by them. However they are the least financially able of the three to do it.
Is Peter Moore (ex President of Sega of America) going to Microsoft a sign of things to come?

Is it possible that the screenshot is *gasp* fake? Or that they ran Windows on that particular one? You know, if you advertise it as one thing, your evidence should corroborate you.
The Genesis was highly successful... And so was the SNES, which isn't even on there. The PS1 was only a 32 bit system, but the Atari Jaguar was 64. The Dreamcast is 128 bit. Who wrote this article? 3 People from "Crocodile" Dundee securities, including a Dr. couldn't get it right... Gee, If they're this bad with these numbers, how good are they with financial numbers?
Get Excited@home with the drama of if you'll actually get the service you paid for or not. My local Circuit City is still trying to sell people @home...
Certification to some people proves more than a Degree does, and for filtering out the garbage, thats what job interviews are for. If the guy interviewing has his pants around his ankles, and says, yo yo yo, whats up, I wanna work up in this biatch, then he obviously won't be hired for anything more than McDonalds janitor (making the food and working the register requires showering every once in a while).
Theres a program in Massachusetts that takes disadvantaged youth 16-24 (usually highschool dropouts) and provides food, shelter, etc, and has a program to train them to be Solaris administrators. Most students coming out of this program are Solaris certified (part one), sometimes part 2 too. Though, lately there have been major problems finding jobs... The program is run in part by Sun but no guarantees are made about jobs, just an interview. Theres also been budget cuts.. They no longer provide books, just photocopies. But the program works... Just dunno the use of it anymore. As far as I know, the only one like this is in MA.
Yeah but on the show or a movie...
Well, with the writers for Star Trek today, I dunno if there is a way to totally eliminate a character so that he can never reappear. It's just like a soap opera, the laws of nature/physics don't apply when it fits the story:P They do have some cool stuf though and they did do a good amount of research on the technology to make it realistic (i think).
How does it feel to have wilwheaton.net slashdotted? But seriously, would you ever, ever, ever do a Star Trek anything again, even if its just 10 seconds to get shot to make sure you'll never appear again? Not sure how you'd get written back in though.
In other news, it is now illegal to seal an envelope, and all mail sent in the U.S. is now subject to be checked for illegal substances, read, and censored.
Tom Ashcroft: "This is necessary to prevent terrorism to protect our children. If we can arbitrarily tap phones and intercept digital communications, it stands to reason that we can read 'snail mail' too."
Seems silly doesn't it? The DMCA seemed silly too until it passed. We seriously have to start classifying Email like snail-mail, illegal to open, read, and the cops aren't supposed to intercept/read it.
Have you read the bill? Glanced at it at least? Skimmed it? Please do so before promoting it... Most people I find that promote this bill are those who haven't read it at all.
I know theres combos but those are expensive... I just want one that I can stick my own hard drive on. An ide interface next to the headphone jack cant be that expensive.
I want an mp3 player that I can cheaply attach an ide hard drive to, I don't care if I have to tape it on there. I don't mind walking around with a hard drive. I'd rather do that than only have what, 16-60 megs of storage? Not nearly enough... Just a normal run of the mill mp3 player with an ide interface stuck somewhere on there would be great.
A real smart card would have enough space on it for a real cryptographic signature that can guarantee (unless of course the key is comprimised)
Hmm, would the government put the backdoor they wanted into their own encryption? How long until that gets cracked/leaked?
Now we get to find out what all that "Downloading new art" stuff really is.
But wouldn't ICQ be better to have a 3rd party client for? It didn't have ads until recently, theres probably a lot less attention paid to it, and AOL owns it too.
I have no problem with my grocery store cards. Of course, the cards are registered to John Smith of 1 Main Street, Anytown, USA, zip code 00000. Born Jan 1 1980. Or I'll use the "temporary" cards they give you until your real one comes in the mail. I do have a problem with the overall concept though, I do not like people having marketing data about me without my explicit consent (not in a million years.)
This could be good as long as it doesn't jeopardize what NASA is trying to do. Though, just that NASA HAS to do this for funding is scary, NASA should be fully funded... People don't realize the good that comes out of space exploration/research.
Customers using Microsoft® Excel or PowerPoint for Windows® or Macintosh®
I guess Mac uses can stop complaining that they don't get all the features of the Windows version.
You have to think about it this way... Is the good that it does worth the harm that it does? It doesn't seem to do much good, and there seems to be a high potential for harm... I've heard stories of things happening directly in front of working cameras (not the fake ones) and nothing being done/no good coming of it.
"If you've got nothing to hide, you've got nothing to fear."
Just because you've got something to hide, it doesn't mean it's illegal. What if someone used these cameras in a public area to, say, watch for two men/women kissing or something, then send someone over to harrass them. There are better examples but that is the only one off the top of my head. Didn't we used to have some rights that protected us from this sort of thing? What if a camera just happened to be pointed towards somebodys window... Could be just some guy, or maybe someone they suspect of something but can't get a warrant to watch... You know this is going to be massively abused. They said wire taps wouldn't be abused either...
Wow, thanks, I like it... Could take the display and stick it on a Crusoe or something smallish but good. I could see it as being extremely useful for what they intended and for other stuff (stuff we want it for), but if you want it to be two eyes then it might look like Geordi's visor. Though, they probably have no intention of putting these into production. Oh well.
Didn't IBM have a commercial with this guy in a park ordering stocks with something like that? It could just be a concept/prototype or total bs from them, but I liked it... Looked like one of those eye things the Dominion use.
Did any (or most) of the politicians that voted for the DMCA know what they were doing, or care? Or were they just persuaded by other lobbyists that it was a good idea?

Is this the same channel that was showing ads for The Clapper, Chia Pet, and the Super Australian Hair Removing Gel? Just 3 easy payments of $24.99...

Well, we would have said something sooner, but our notebook caught fire.
Do you think Democrats or Republicans have a better grasp of things? Or are they equally clueless?
