Yea, sounds like some kind of BS, depends on how they do their stats though. They may be calling random sample of people at home, which may mean more people.
If you go by how many play the game on-line its highly unlikely halo is more popular on the internet.
actually no, it just shows how hypocritical republicans were to talk about Clinton when they cant get angry over a security breach that could have hurt many covert agents.
This is affecting small groups that cannot negotiate prices directly and can harm them on BEHALF of wal-mart.
Wal-Mart can demand a lower price, something they already do, but smaller groups cannot demand lower prices.
This makes it so that everyone just goes to Wal-Mart because Wal-Mart now has the ability to severely undercut prices while smaller, local groups have to sell them at high prices or not sell them at all. At worse they will even be forced to keep stock that they cannot return because they cannot sell the stock. That is the reason you have sale prices in the first place, it is to get rid of stock that you can't sell at the regular price.
Now they will just have to burn the stuff or something, not sure exactly, but in the end the company that sold it to them got their money already.
They were working on this stuff at KU as far as 4 years back by mounting repeaters on vehicles that would allow the network to change dynamically and route around hills and stuff if connections between two vehicles was cut by terrain.
Then by that logic the Democratic party as a whole, the party made up by members of _OTHER_ states who want to be relevant can just universally agree to ignore the Florida results.
Which is exactly, i guess, what is going to happen.
And if other states want to enhance the value of THEIR voters they can do that and I guess what the democratic party as a whole is wanting to do makes perfect sense, in fact to ignore someone who goes outside the party rules like Florida is almost incumbent, if not required, for them to do so.
Thats an interesting position.
If there were no restrictions placed on times then groups could easily sabotage the process, hell right now could be considered sabotaging the process.
The democratic party needs to have some strictures on how it gets people in, otherwise it really is not cohesive, the same with the Republican party. Your supposed to be looking at what is best for democracy, not because some petty feeling of entitlement by a group to break tradition.
Florida violated the Democratic party rules because they knew everyone else was following them, and by doing so have now broken the rules of the party and are sticking their noses up because of it.
This is actually a major problem.
It would be like Florida deciding it needed to start voting for president a week early because they have had problems in the past with counting things, and then all the states going "well we want to start voting earlier too".
There was an article on slashdot about the fact that many people were expecting them to release new printer technology based on some patents that they had approved. this is the first time they have released an actual example.
They denied my upgrade request when I sent them an information request via their "contact us" link at the bottom so that I could find out if something wrong happened or when I would be getting the upgrade.
Contacting their support, which says it will reply within 1 business day, took 25 days before my first response.
I submitted for an upgrade waited weeks and weeks, and then sent an e-mail to the support email asking why I had not received it, and if I had somehow mad an error in the documentation and such that I had sent.
I got a reply that said "Thank you for submitting to customer service, your upgrade order has been cancelled per your request so that you can re-submit with the correct information."
So instead of verifying my order, they canceled it, and the page to do submissions are gone, and besides that the documentation said "no copies of this documentation will be accepted," but I had already submitted the documentation via physical snail mail. So I have essentially been SCREWED out of 200 bucks worth of software.
To put it mildly, I will never purchase Windows Vista, and I am sure the Pirate bay can help me get the software I was promised. I have never before had a request for information turn into such a fraudulent cancellation before, and since I already paid for it, I am not feeling under any obligation to purchase it again.
I would argue the grandparent to your post is a protestant, so thus his statement that "just X" being John 14:6 is correct. Sorry you had to lose on that one!
To put this mildly, when I was in college I would watch my room mate play through medal of honor allied assault, and he was extremely poor at it. If I had been one of the enemy soldiers with as little hitpoints as they have and all the modifiers against them in easy mode, I would have taken him down.
Thats the issue I see with this game as it comes out. Even if the single player character is "awesome" if they weaken the little henchman characters to the point were skill no longer matters, then the game will be fun for neither party. The stronger player character will simply mow through them regardless of how much they suck. If the better player on the NPC side is truly a lot better, say me vs my room mate or maybe my Dad or something, then the person playing the single player part of the game will not enjoy themselves.
The kind of people that play Single Player are not going to be as good as those that play Multi only, I only have to watch people play single player to get frustrated with how much they suck except are still able to beat the game after 50 respawns and save points.
Just imagine sitting behind a box with a sniper rifle in CS and seeing "HI I see you are camping, maybe you would like to own a real AWP, go to DeadCheapSniperRifles.com"
Or maybe as you are running around on DE Dust "Get your explosives at Joe's explosive shack, get into the real game"
Or "Take a breath, smell something? Buy Bobs Game Grit Cleaner for all those awkward smells"
Actually I said I am thinking of buying a Zune, I actually have used an IPOD and have borrowed the 30gig version for its ability to play back a video clip on its screen when showing some product features.
One of the things I like about the Zune is that it seems to have a bigger screen, can get FM broadcasts, and its interface looks nice though I have not really had much opportunity to use one except at the store.
My family has a history of diabetes, both on my father and mothers sides, so I hope that this really does work out since there is a strong chance that I will get it in my 40's
Which is what makes this so funny, remember this was released before the ZUNE was released (I think) which means that the people showing it off had to be paid by MS. That, and it took them 40 seconds to send a song and they knew the menus down pat.
Imagine being a first time user trying to figure out how to get the song your buddy just sent... in fact, it does not even SHOW that, it shows the other guy sending a song back to his "buddy" but never shows how to get the song.
I imagine its another unintuitive interface were you have to dig through music you already own to find the music someone "squirted" into your Zune.
It would have been tons better to just have file sharing with auto DRM if you get it from someone else.

These games seem to be heavily GPU bound.
What about a game like Supreme Commander? Which can bring a quad core processor to its knees.
They could make it so that the dragon feels your stress and makes it harder to pilot the dragon until you become less stressful.

So Enjoy getting screwed.

I think you have a misconception of how dual processor machines work. I do not think it means what you think it means.

My original post was not flame bait either.

The targeting will be awesome.

Thats good btw, you do not want friends playing ranked matches unless randomly seeded against each other.
What GOOD reason is there for two friends to play against each other in a ranked match?
I cannot wait for google to index this stuff!
HELL YEA
Actually I said I am thinking of buying a Zune, I actually have used an IPOD and have borrowed the 30gig version for its ability to play back a video clip on its screen when showing some product features.
One of the things I like about the Zune is that it seems to have a bigger screen, can get FM broadcasts, and its interface looks nice though I have not really had much opportunity to use one except at the store.
Despite previous posts, I have actually thought about buying a Zune, the interface does not look too bad, and it seems much more customizable.
So here is a question, what does an IPOD have (other than after market accessories) that the Zune does not?
As a basic, out the gate thing, what does the Zune have that the IPOD does not? (other than squirting).
My family has a history of diabetes, both on my father and mothers sides, so I hope that this really does work out since there is a strong chance that I will get it in my 40's
Actually the article is very well done and each page is about 2 pages typed. It really is in depth and interesting.
