  1. Re:Yes. on Online Gaming Addictive? · · Score: 1

    This year I tried the line of Sega 2k sports games online, I couldn't believe how addicting it was. In the past, I have become addicted to Wolfenstein and other fps.

    This new PS2 online games addiction is new. On weekdays I find myself staying up till 4am!

  2. Re:known for beautiful women?? on United Kingdom Leads the World in TV Downloads · · Score: 1

    When you watch sports, they have these commercial that saids the show cannot be rebroadcasted in any way without the WRITTEN consent of blah blah blah. Legally, you don't own it. But in this world, techies > lawyers.

  3. Re:Linux music on Rosegarden 1.0 Released · · Score: 1

    Well I have used Fruitloop. Those VST and DXI plugins seem overly complicated. Rosegarden maybe the fresh start that these type of software need.

  4. Re:Shareware on New Funding For Free Software In The UK · · Score: 1

    Shareware is free software within a time period. After the expiration it's nothing unless you pay up.

  5. Re:Why so little. on IBM Puts $100M Behind Linux Push · · Score: 1

    They should care more about AIX. Comparing hands-on to linux, solaris, hpux, irix.... I'd have to say AIX is superior in almost everyway. But it is the most unmarketed product coming out of IBM?!

  6. Re:Well... on Google Gets Away With What Microsoft Couldn't · · Score: 1

    Who cares. M$ got away with selling beta products for a decade.

  7. Re:Please evolve on Open Source Software for ASPs? · · Score: 1

    IIS is going to be the last web browser with good ASP support. The last thing left for ASP is the quick and easy access to Access and any other MS sql database.

  8. Re:Thunderbird not ready for me. on Corporate Email Clients Reviewed · · Score: 1

    I too was so happy with firefox, I jumped on the thunderbird train for a day. Only to be extremely disappointed.

    The ultimate mail client would do multiple pop accounts, multiple hotmail, multiple gmail accounts all at the same time with one address book. I can't believe in 2005, M$ outlook still can't do multiple hotmail accounts at the same time.

  9. Re:Linux music on Rosegarden 1.0 Released · · Score: 1

    You know, I am shocked that Cakewalk and Fruitloops haven't ported their software over to linux in general. Rosegarden would be a start.

  10. Re:GW Bush says on U.S. Agencies Earn D+ on Computer Security · · Score: 3, Interesting

    This generation of old crusty politicians running the homeland security department is not going to be much, so an F grade wouldn't surprise me.

    I would worry in the next generation when legit techies + Patriot Act starts invading all your privacy.

  11. Re:What would blizzard do? on Square-Enix Bans Over 800 FFXI Accounts · · Score: 1

    Hey that's not even Blizzard. They don't have the balls to do that. That's Square Enix.

  12. Re:My question on Microsoft's Martin Taylor Responds · · Score: 1

    You people are totally missing the point. I am not saying noobs don't deserve the rights to use linux. The idea is to throw tough questions at competitors.

    To ask M$ employees stupid questions like "What do you think of linux?" is a complete waste of time. You are committing marketing suicide to wait for YOUR competitor to tell you... you have a nice product.

  13. Re:Not blackmail on Gates tried to Blackmail Danish Government · · Score: 2, Insightful

    In godfather the movie series they specifically not use the word MAFIA.

    In M$ they specifically not use the word SATANIC.

  14. Re:I still say on Governer Dean Becomes Chair of DNC · · Score: 1

    It doesn't matter. The whole thing is wrigged. Bush will win everything by default.

  15. Re:It's like the theory of evolution... on Macrovision Releases DVD Copy Protection · · Score: 1

    The concept of statistics is flawed. I don't know how they rounded it to 97%. I don't think there is 100 DVD copying software out there. I don't think they tested all 100% either way.

  16. My question on Microsoft's Martin Taylor Responds · · Score: 0, Troll

    I had a doubleedge sword question that never got asked.

    How long did you run Linux in the office? If he said temporary then he's not in a position to judge Linux, since he's a noob. If he said a long time, then it's got to be better than windows.

  17. Re:Hookay! There goes my good favour... on Dvorak on Google and Wikipedia · · Score: 1

    From the start I am one of those people that would like to see Google stay a private company forever. Once they go public, it's all about meeting the shareholder's numbers. It's no longer about meeting the market's need for better product.

  18. Re:Lawsuit for moles? on EFF Joins Fight Against Apple Lawsuit · · Score: 1

    Well the problem is the word "secret". There is a serious definition problem here. What's published is not exactly blueprint and patent design info. That would be giving away the "secret". Apple is just ultra sensitive when someone market their overpriced products before they did.

  19. Re:FP! w/e read on on Red Hat EL 4.0 Released · · Score: 1

    Redhat Enterprise 3.0 went thru 5 major updates in a span of 1 year. Doesn't that defeat the purpose of the enterprise edition.

    Why does the enterprise version, which is marketed to be stable and rarely changing, have more updates than the Fedora set? It makes zero sense.

  20. Re:NSA domestic? on NSA to Become Government Net 'Traffic Cop?' · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I know people who have had jobs with a relatively low level security clearance. These people claim that they could hear their phones tap at random times. I can't even imagine what people with high level clearance have to deal with.

  21. Re:BitTorrent vs. "Instant gratificaion" of HTTP on Xandros Open Circulation Edition Released · · Score: 1

    Given the millions of linux distros out there, Xandros is just not an attractive name. They need to use good names to attract new audiences. Like...

    X3NA linux

    PL@YB0Y linux

    ToughA$$ linux

  22. Wasn't Free on Delphi Turns 10 · · Score: 1

    In 1996 or 1997 I tried to learn Delphi to add more to my resume. Correct me if I am wrong... but this language just wasn't freely downloadable like java or perl. As a result, this language never became super popular.

  23. Re:I think the term is: on Web-Only Album Wins Grammy · · Score: 4, Funny

    RIAA boardroom transcript

    Exec 1: Oh my god we are toast!

    Exec 2: Why?

    Exec 1: The grammy awarded a non-CD winner last night!

    Exec 2: No problem. We'll just hire more lawyers and sue the grammys.

    Exec 1: Brilliant!

    Exec 2: We just need a lawyer with morals, only buy CDs and doesn't do P2P.

    Exec 1: Ok, we are toast.

  25. Re:Alot of talk, little real activity on Windows to Linux Migration in the Enterprise? · · Score: 1

    That's too wordy man. It's simple.

    Does your company require the need to play games in the office? If not, go to linux.
