PLEASE.... you obviously don't know the history of football games to be saying it's ok for EA to make the same damn game every year.
Tecmo Bowl for NES in the 80s had one of the first NFL licenses. What if they pulled the plug on the rest of the industry. There would have never been an EA. You would be stuck with Tecmo Bowl for life. Same goes for Sega genesis Joe Montana football in the 90s and so many followups.
EA is denying the chance for the industry to compete. If there was a 2nd or 3rd potentially good product, you won't see it for another 6 years.
I don't blame you for hating blue screens. Look at this freaking Graphics card review. There is NOTHING about heat capacity or how long the cards can run with a $5 fan.
You are not going to get 540Mhz Core speed with a shitty fan. As simple as that!
What's even more interesting is when one of these standards get discontinued, future TVs will probably still have to support them.

The problem is not the fun factor. The problem is the "difficulty" factor. With the exception of sports games, I haven't beaten a game in like 5 years without www.gamefaqs.com. Whatever happened to the days when games weren't frustrating and packed with puzzles.
The anime industry need to give me something worth my time and effort first. Last great anime IMHO is still "Ninja Scroll" and "Battle Angel". Everything else since has been disappointment, which covers the past few years. Yes, disappointment includes the highly overrated "Cowboy Bebop".
That's why I like www.clusty.com. Everyone is concerned about elevating their website so that they are the first page/topranking of Google's results. For example the word "RAM", is memory, animal and technically sex related.
Clusty would have split into 3 separate cluster trees. In google it would just be out of balance.
The quality of support in linux land really varies. I have called Redhat for some really steep issues deep in the kernel.
The support was mediocre at best. I can tell the support guy was swamped beyond belief. I truely felt bad for him. If I had no urgency to call, I wouldn't even bother.
At the same time, Redhat support is supposedly one of the more established services out there. So I wonder... quantity over quality...
I still like the original Diablo development team the most. Until you mention it, I was curious as to where those guys went. No wonder Guild War is so good.
They should be banned from this planet for suggesting the mass production of 8 trillion AOL CDs a year to everyone's mailbox every state every day. Which probably attract 1 customer out of 100 free CDs.
That is a really good point. Why not come out with any speed, and have them all trunk to 1 connection.
Buy a switch at 100MB, buy another switch a year later at 1000MB. Make that 1100MB total. Just keep on dynamically trunking with some standard trunking protocol, none of this IOS lock in.
I invested a reasonable amount during the.com boom era. And when it tanked, I lost an insane percentage. I still have a very bitter after-taste investing in tech stocks.
What's even more sad is I tried alot of different funds and investment types. Nothing guarantees you 6 months to 1 year profit like a 3% CD account. Everything else seem to go up a week, and down a week.
In the old days you were proud to be infected with the Anna Kournikova and Cookie Monster virus.
The names nowadays are just ultra lame. You want to patch asap now, because you don't want your friends to know you had Zotob. That's why they don't spread as quickly.
Before we deploy WiMAX the industry should do massive research on its effects on animals. I always worry this wireless stuff broadcast at a frequency that affects not human, but wildlife. It'll just fuck with our ecosystem, and we find out too late.
Why did they mod this offtopic? I was voting, I saw Bushes name on the ballot, got so enraged, I went blind temporarily and ended up voting for no one.
This is not really the same argument. You are basically saying rifle companies don't have to be responsible for your firearm actions. ISPs aren't double sending your TCP packets to some alternate destination without you knowing.
Though this whole ISP privacy article is silly cause no one abuse your info more than credit card companies.
Laser surgery can control cells in your body. Lasik mainly refers to the eye. I think the article is pointing out more than the potential of improving Lasik eye procedures... which last I checked at www.lasikdisaster.com is filled with stories.
This is a doubledge sword. The more Sun sells x86 solaris, the less they are selling sparc solaris. Which would ultimately effect their hardware baseline. They can't win.
Some of the earliest instances of C linklists, queues and stacks came out of AT&T research labs in the 1970s. Years later it hit the classrooms of Caltechs, Berkeley, WPI, MIT.
Not that obvious! I look at the way MMORPGs and online gaming in general ate away the korean and US market. For a country that live and breathe videogames, Japan didn't embrace it nearly as much as I would expect. This is the same country that didn't like Gran Theft Auto. Even though it sold like hot cakes all around the world. Japanese markets and tastes are unpredictable.
For once I agree with an AC. This is getting out of hand. Just 3 news articles ago was another iBook/iPod story. If someone ran linux on a Rio mp3 player would anyone actually care?

Macross Plus was good, but it wasn't "great".
Neon Genesis Evangelion was just too dragged out for me.
I did see Lain and I seriously think I will enjoy it 10 years later, just not now. It seems way ahead of its time.

It blows my mind that US is complaining about the lack of finance available for lighting up the dark fibre underground.
Then here we are, providing a free service. Isn't this another political stunt?!

This is Japan. They have the lowest crime rate in the world and tolerate alot less than US would.
Is the new 3.0 versions backward compatible with the old 2.0 and before? That's the part that is still fuzzy.

But.... crackers get no attention. Hackers cause malicious attacks, they are the ones changing the world above politics and corporate BS.
If it wasn't for these spyware/adwares/hacks, there would have never been a need for firefox. That's just 1 tiny example.
