  1. Since when is a Game Boy a console? on MP3 for Gameboy · · Score: 1

    ...that will play digital music in various formats on any of the tens of millions of Game Boy game consoles worldwide.

    Thats news to me.

  2. Hmm. on Printing Wide Web Pages? · · Score: 1

    Editing the HTML sounds like the best option to me. If its all layed out in tables just exchange some TDs with some TRs and it would work fine.

    Too bad there isn't a built in way to do it though... But from a programming standpoint it doesn't seem like it should be too hard to in software just rotate the whole page 90 degrees and send it to the printer.

  3. Not to be confused with. on Slashback: Disclosure, Maricopa, Telecoms · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Maricopa California. "Gateway to the sea."

  4. Re:Resolution too small on Flip-Pad Voyager: Dual-screen Laptop · · Score: 1

    Honest your honor. I'm not a drinking man.

  5. Re:Resolution too small on Flip-Pad Voyager: Dual-screen Laptop · · Score: 1

    Thank you for that informative commentary. I like mine better thanks.

  6. Re:Its really a portable on Flip-Pad Voyager: Dual-screen Laptop · · Score: 1

    Yeah, I seem to remember a friend of mine talking about a P4 2ghz "laptop" which had all these bells and whistles for $800 then he noticed that the thing didn't have a battery or anyway of attaching one. Really kinda weird.

    I guess this laptop would be good for playing battle ship or checkers or something like that.

  7. Re:Its really a portable on Flip-Pad Voyager: Dual-screen Laptop · · Score: 1

    Yeah, I figured I wasn't the first person to think about a slashdot cache. After all it seems like it would be a pretty simple functionality to add and make slashdot much more useable. But the searching I did shows that many people before me have complained about it. Its in the faq and basically nobody wants to do it.

  8. The Atari on Atari's 30th Anniversary · · Score: 1

    Is a sad sad little console.

  9. Re:Resolution too small on Flip-Pad Voyager: Dual-screen Laptop · · Score: 1

    I'm starting to wonder if the guy who posted this story even read it.

  10. Re:This shouldn't really count as dual head on Flip-Pad Voyager: Dual-screen Laptop · · Score: 1

    How embarasing :/

  11. Re:This shouldn't really count as dual head on Flip-Pad Voyager: Dual-screen Laptop · · Score: 1

    I think you replied to the wrong guy. But I see your point.

  12. Its really a portable on Flip-Pad Voyager: Dual-screen Laptop · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Why anyone would call a computer a laptop when its battery most likely won't last more than an hour, weights 20lbs and has a 17" screen on it is beyond me.

    Oh and another thing, the site is pretty much /.ed allready.

    Does anyone else thing that a cacheing system similar to google's google cache would be a good idea? I certainly do.

  13. This shouldn't really count as dual head on Flip-Pad Voyager: Dual-screen Laptop · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Two little screens are really not anywhere near as good as one big one. Especially on that thing. Sure it folds up and fits into your wallet or whatever. This is some seriously wacked out stuff.

  14. Imagine that. on Linux PDA From China · · Score: 1

    Equipment made in China thats actually owned by a chinese company. Imagine that.

  15. Could someone just please explain... on Minority Report · · Score: 1, Offtopic

    what does this movie have to do with minorities?

  16. Re:Where are you? on Where Are You Publishing? · · Score: 1

    I like the smuggling contraban analogy.

  17. Why aren't TLD's free? on Open-Source Pioneers Make Bid for .org · · Score: 1

    they should just bust out with free from tlds that anyone can setup.

  18. Silly Zimbabwe. on Where Are You Publishing? · · Score: 1

    I don't see any reason why one country's citizens should be responsible for following the laws of another country if they're in their home country.

  19. But but but... on Open-Source Pioneers Make Bid for .org · · Score: 1

    Domain names WANT to be free!

  20. Coordination on Augmented Reality Billiards · · Score: 4, Funny

    Maybe this will help me be able to keep from missing the cue ball so often.

  21. Spam Proof Email on Klez, The Virus that Keeps on Giving · · Score: 1

    Are there any other internet email protocols out there that solve the spam problem that have any kind of chance of gaining popularity?

  22. What would make it worth it for Slashdot on Salon Sans Ads, For A Price · · Score: 1

    I think that I would be willing to pay for slashdot if it bettered the signal to noise ratio in the forums. And removing the banner ads wouldn't be bad either except that I've been pretty well trained to ignore animated gifs. In fact if a site uses animated gifs and its NOT a banner ad I usually find myself ignoring them as well.

  23. No more Street Fighter? on Another Arcade Standby Calls It Quits · · Score: 2

    I'm not gonna mis Super Mega Ultra Street Fighter vs X-Men II Alpha Championship.

  24. Re:Mac OS X 1.1? on OS X Won't Be Fully Functional On March 24th · · Score: 1

    I was thinking X I they don't call it os "EX" they call it "Ten" so if the called it X I it would be "Ten One"

  25. Re:Lots of folks do linux full-time. on Linux Is Going Down · · Score: 1

    Charles is that you? Weird...
