I wouldn't just blame overseas. I have a couple family members who work there. Their corporate horror stories speak volume. Politics is a split between...
1.)Bank of Boston 2.)Fleet 3.)Bank of America
I can't even imagine working at a place where everyone kiss ass all day. And every manager just want employees from their former employer and no one cares for people with skills.
And the annual salary increase averages.001 percent. While the CEOs and managements keep leaving for billion dollar severance packages. At the same time they are cutting cost over seas?! Wtf, the FBI, CIA, NSA need to turn BOA upside down.
No way. The only thing more uncomfortable than NES controllers was Atari wrist sticks. The NES 2 button wasn't even diagonal at an angle, your wrist really hurts after a while.
Only thing good was that it was tough as nails. I have never heard someone needing a NES controller replacement. Nowadays controllers are toast after a year.
Aaaaah.... I too agree on that 3rd world country brain power in a decade or two. Except I am highly convinced from my relatives that U.S highschool kids will learn more online via Internet than the class room.
I can honestly say highschool was the biggest waste of 4 years of my life. Anyways, Billy Gates get a couple mod pts from me on this subject matter.
I swear Animes are not suitable for most audiences. The last GREAT Anime I watched, that makes sense for Americans, was BattleAngel and Ninja Scroll. Everything else since has been dragged out episodes.
The funniest are the Pepsi and Coke cans. No matter where characters walk, the can label always turn exactly where the camera is looking. That's it we need wizards and knights drinking Pepsi.
Anyone know what market share Websphere really has in relation to say... Apache or IIS. I have seen a number of IBM shops, none of them use Websphere. Is it really just a coincidence.
Hironobu Sakaguchi does not have the same creative control Shigeru Miyamoto has on Nintendo games. If this guy left, whoopie.
The FF series peak was at Final Fantasy 7. All the other ones are good but not revolutionary. There are plenty of good RPGs out there to rival it now anyways.
Auctioning was highly favored during the.com boom era when something can be somehow purchased for 1/10th the price after a company goes out of business.
I am convinced there is little bargain left on Ebay. I can find cheaper non-auctioning prices of just about everything off walmart and pricewatch. I'd give ebay credit as a good specialty shop to buy rare items, but not as an auction.
This whole DRM crack thing is taken way out of proportion. For something to be considered copyrightable, it doesn't need a creative edge. It just needs a good lawyer to find a matching case from the past that shows something noncreative was copyrighted.
That's how all these real criminals are out on cheap 1 week bail. I am not saying this guy with his empty track is a criminal. Just trying to point out the loophole in the legal system.
Ever since Steve Jobs took over, I have pumped $$$ into iPods, iTunes and accessories. And I have never bought an Apple product before. Tivo or not, I give him alot of credit for the company's success.
Software development accountable what?! How about making Management accountable. The developers are not the ones screaming for new features every release with these ridiculous time lines. The decision makers are accountable. Aka executives.
If I am paying they better let you be the terrorist. I can understand the free America's Army that forced the opposition to be terrorists and you be the propaganda American good guy.
I don't think the graphics industry knows how to manufacture cards in general. The Geforce 6600GT AGP still haven't fully arrived in stores after Oct 2004 reviews. They keep pushing forward, but why?! The $5 fan is the problem, not the 256MB of RAM.

Oh so The "A" in AIM stands for America. I thought it was Annoying Instant Messenger.

Here's a link to the history of IBM's processors POWER. This is one of the best sites out there IMHO, and it still seems mighty confusing.
IBM never had a good history of marketing their processors like Intel and AMD. They fight competition with raw numbers.

But I guess I'd need a 5Ghz PC with 6GB of RAM with another $600 video card upgrade thru Nvidia/ATI.
Windows can dominate over Linux if it had no bugs. Pfff... Ah hahaha

Hollywood is dying. Every movie follows the same formula.
- First 10 minute is some high budget explosive action
- followed by hours of plot
- last 15 minute is more high budget explosive action.
They need to study foreign and independent films some more to get some different ideas.
I have always considered Firewire superior over USB2 especially with hi-bandwidth multimedia. Isn't that Apple's specialty wtf?!
Yeah but from the Bush standpoint...
1.) security starts with Iraq
2.) security can only be established with a Patriot Acts
3.) security begins with the FBI, CIA, NSA, Bush security advisors
Apparently it's ok to favor shipping every other IT job abroad, since IT security folks in corporate america are not part of the security equation.

You forgot Oregon Trail. Every school accidentally teach kids how to use rifles to kill buffalos.
Yet they bitch when Quake is installed. One kills buffalo, the other kills aliens and space marines.

Yeah I know at least 2 companies that run nearly 100% unix IT shops that still prefer Outlook pop3 and Exchange 2000.
What's the answer? There are a million proposed answer here, but none of it is definite.

Sorry, I am really having a hard time seeing if people are sarcastic or not.

OMG someone mod this guy +99. I am all out of mod points.
