3 or 4 years ago, we started with 19" LCD TV costly $700 a set. Finally, consumer level 52" LCD finally appears now. Is OLED that appealing over LCD that they can still start from 20"?
I swear I saw couple of these posts by slashdot this year. By this time, solar power should cost similar to toilet paper.
However, given that we live in the states, anything that is big and heavy and fragile will cost a lot even the material is free. So it really mean a little to nothing to end users.
I can't agree more, a flop is a hype that when you bought it, you will punch your nuts afterwards. Dreamcast was a flop for Sega as a business, but certainly not a flop for the owner. I was a happy owner for years. People who complained about dreamcast are the one who didn't even own them.
When you first install ubuntu, you will be prompted to create an user during installation, that users is automatically placed in the sudo list. When you tried to configure something that require admin privilege, it will prompt you for your password. So is command prompt, you will need to put sudo in front of the command to get admin privilege.
However, for linux, your windows manager would remember your elevated privilege for a while so the same task would not ask you for the same login/password again for a while. For windows, it's kept coming back again and again.
Does the wireless transmission have encryption? If not or if it was 128-bit WEP, I can easily see what he sees including the implanter's naked wife. It will take extra work if it was encrypted in WPA
I have lived in Canada and Hong Kong where both places use metric. While, temperature is in Cecilius, distance is in KM, on the other hand, when weight is referenced, people would still use pounds. I do not mean that they don't use kg, but lbs is more common than kg.
I talked to a developer who uses JSF over Struts for a new project. The more he uses JSF, the more he hate it and would like to switch back to struts. I wouldn't say JSF is any better than struts but it's nice that there is a standard within J2EE

Doesn't PMP stand for Portable Media Player? Isn't eBooks a media? I think it's easier to put a pdf reader than to support another video codec. It seems that none of the PMP supports reading ebooks. I thought it would be nice to listen to mp3 and read ebook/watch movie at the same time.
The default scalers in computer players use less than sophisticated algorithm for scaling. What the original poster meant is to use faroudja hardware scaling.
I believe the reason why Game Cube is not selling quite well compared to the other 2 because its system has no piracy. I don't think there is anything to do with it not being able to play DVD.
Yeah, and if you are willing to spend like $450, dell always have deals that have 3Ghz P4, 80gb HD and 512MB ram with 17" LCD monitor. Sell the LCD monitor on ebay for $150 and you have a very good computer for $300 that you can do whatever you like. Not a $230 machine that you can't do anything on.
Oh, I thought u would still need need nuclear fission to get to the temperature level to get Fusion reaction at the very very beginning. So there are still a reason to ask for U235
I use my HTPC to listen to my mp3 and view my media files. I can only selectively listen/view from all media files that I download. There is really no point to burn it to a dvd or CD an view them, it would be a waste of my time and money.
Ahanix D5 is really attractive if it's at least $100 less. With Dell deals that you can get a decent computer for $350, a low end Denon receiver 1905 is around $300. $215USD for an empty shell with a 300W power supply is really too steep. I guess you can set it to that price when there are no competition.
I think they would not loose money money by just selling the console, since there are $200 lindow machines in walmart that has 1.1GHz cpus, bigger hds, more rams, etc. You might say xbox have better graphics chip and audio chip. Well, I think it won't cause them much to make them since those chips are quite small and they are producing them in large quantity.

No, it's spending $250 is easier than spending $600

This thread http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showthread.php?t=79 8080&page=1&pp=30 showed that the blue-ray disc is gaining ground. the blueray disc is out selling hd-dvd 2:1.

Even if they had the technology of 3 generations ahead, they would still release the chip at Moore's Law's pace to get the most revenue out of it.

I had the Dreamcast too and it was an awesome console.

Oops, then can you explan how the fusion reactor work?
