  1. Wait a minute . . . on Why is Java Considered Un-Cool? · · Score: 1

    I'm not cool?

  2. Re:Too Many Connections? on SF Author Robert J. Sawyer Looks at 2014 · · Score: 1

    Didn't Dick Tracy have one of those wristbands?

  3. Re:Too Many Connections? on SF Author Robert J. Sawyer Looks at 2014 · · Score: 1

    I was hoping for smart condoms. Or better yet smart beer glasses that might prevent the need for smart condoms in the first place.

  4. WTF? on SF Author Robert J. Sawyer Looks at 2014 · · Score: 1

    Smart washcloths?

  5. I gotta get one on Epson's 12 Gram Flying Robot · · Score: 1

    Geezuz I gotta get one of these . . .

  6. Barlow on Hackers Hall of Fame · · Score: 1

    What the hell is Barlow doing on this list?

  7. No on We Are All Nerds Now · · Score: 2, Funny

    To paraphrase Lester Bangs: No, I know you. You're not cool.

  8. Re:Mettle on Stan Lee: The Rise and Fall of The American Comic Book · · Score: 1

    Damn! Maybe I should have typed "Curse of the English Majors?" :-)

  9. Blaster Writer from Minnesota? on Blaster Writer Caught · · Score: 1

    The Minneapolis Star Tribune is reporting (registration free but required) that the FBI has arrested a "teenager" from suburban Minneapolis, Minnesota (Hopkins, MN).

  10. Mettle on Stan Lee: The Rise and Fall of The American Comic Book · · Score: 3, Informative

    The proper use of the phrase is worth your "mettle" not "metal."

    Revemnge of the English Majors . . .

  11. Macintosh Aquarium on Aquarium Modcase · · Score: 1

    There was a kit available at one time that turned an old Mac Plus or Mac SE into an aquarium . . .

  12. Re:Installation on Rise of the 'Consumer' Linux Distribution · · Score: 1

    I think Linux will never go mainstream if the end-users have to install it themselves. Just try to walk a non-technical person through configuring X-Windows if there is some kind of problem during installation . . .

  13. Re:Who wins? on Class Action Filed Against Bonzi Software · · Score: 1

    Who, if anyone, deserves this more than Bonzi? I say nail them to the wall. Don't even get me started on the "Bonzi Buddy" scam . . .

    I agree it's time to get rid of companies like this. They give all the wbe a bad name.

  14. Wizard on Superhero Smackdown · · Score: 1

    Wizard magazine runs a monthly column called "Last Man Standing" that basically takes any two superheroes, or group of heroes, and asks this question every month. As I recall they came to the conclusion that Batman would win based on the previously mentioned Kryptonite angle.

  15. Pentium Macs on Pentium-Based Macs The Future of Apple? · · Score: 1

    Does this mean a version of OS 10.x for Intel that we could buy retail. This would be a great idea in my opinion.
