  1. Re:It better on Xbox 2 - The Price of Compatibility? · · Score: 0

    Mine's getting there...NES, N64, GC, GBPlayer, PS2...All I need now is to get my hands on the old Atari 2600 and SNES...

    Just a quick question though...is it wrong to buy NES games these days?

    Hope be with ye,BR Cyan

  2. Re:Congratulate "Sir William" and move on on Bill Gates to be Knighted · · Score: 0

    ...Mr. Gates and Microsoft has done lots of things, but making money is the only thing they've ever done well...

    Actually, that's half right. The other thing they've done just as well is made shitty software and operating systems. Windows 1.x-3.0 were failures. It wasn't until version 3.1 came along that Windows really started taking off. Even then, I feel it wasn't until Windows 98 that they started making a decent OS. I may be wrong, I may not be, but that's how I see things...

  3. Mis-worded article? on SCO Approaches Google About Linux Licenses · · Score: 0

    As copied from the Forbes article...

    Linux, which can be copied and modified freely, has been a hit among businesses since it can be run on personal computer hardware and is based on the widely-used Unix platform.

    Did they just accidentally mis-word the article, or are they on SCO's side? Just curious...

    Hope be with ye,

  4. Re:article slashdotted, MIRROR on SCO Investor Changing the Deal · · Score: 0

    Why is this Redundant? It is a very useful summary, and I can't get to the linked site.

    Perhaps because it's the summary on /.?

  6. Re:They'll care when the sun blows up.... on Three More Solar Flares · · Score: 0

    How long before Bush declares the sun a threat to the US? Is he gonna claim that it's a weapon of mass destruction and try to dispose of it? I can see the headlines now:

  7. Re:Ouch! on Do You Accept Cellphone Payments? · · Score: 0

    ...If it's your phone, credit card, ID, etc. that'a a hugh problem...

    What does Hugh have to do with it? Doesn't he have his own phone?

  8. Re:Crack on New Anti-Swap CDs Hit Shelves · · Score: 0

    It'd take me about an hour or so, depending on how long the CD plays for. Just play the CD, with the line/speaker out jack connected to the line in jack. Record off the line in jack, then convert the audio to MP3 if you haven't done so already. Simple, eh? If that doesn't work, you may have to record from one device to another, CD player to PC, or PC to PC, etc...

  9. Software Patents on Slashback: Ascent, Patents, Transferability · · Score: 0

    Five steps to get rich:

    1. Write a basic boot loader
    2. Make pathetic excuse for a kernel
    3. Patent it
    4. Sue Microsoft and SCO for patent infringement
    5. $$$

    Oh shit...now my secret's out...

  11. Re:hmm. on Lunar Lasers · · Score: 0

    Umm...If you watched Highlander 2, you'd know that it was a shield to protect the earth from the lack of the ozone layer. It was destroyed because the corporation didn't want to admit that the ozone layer had regenerated. For some reason, that corporation reminds me of Microsoft...can't imagine why though...

  12. Re:Not for P4? on Integrated Water-Cooled Case · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    The people who buy P4's are probably the same ones who support Microsoft...

  13. Re:Linux isn't the threat. Customers are. on "Linux is *the* threat," Says Microsoft · · Score: 1

    Nope. That ain't right either. Personally, I think the biggest threat to Microsoft is, oddly enough...Microsoft. If they continue to put out crappy software, they'll eventually put themselves out of business...

  14. Re:Yeah right on U.S. Logo-Free TV Broadcast Organizations? · · Score: 1

    I'm sure most television viewers out there can associate shows to networks, these days

    Just try doing tech support for A-O-Hell and try telling that to yourself again...
