I agree with many of the previous comments. Most of the G4 shows lacked the quality and watchability that the TechTV shows had. When watching one of the G4 shows I feel like I'm watching a high school A/V production. Sound is always off, concepts are simple and the hosts need more experience. The TechTV shows always gave me the impression I was watching a professional network that was serious about what they did. They had real professional reporters working form them.
TSS, Unscrewed and Xplay are the only shows I ever watch anymore. My girlfriend, whom is so far from being a techie its kinda funny, also noticed the change. She didn't mind the shows I watched on TechTV but things like G4TV, Arena, Sweat, Electric Playground just annoyed the hell out of her(and me). She actually enjoyed watching TSS, Fresh Gear and Unscrewed with me.
Goodbye TechTV, I dont think I'll ever watch you again.
I guess I should Read the Whole Fucking Article next time. I just read down far enough to test the link. I saw at the begining it listed FireFox 0.X....
I just ran their test and it did not work on me. It loaded the page in a new tab instead of the MSN frame. I have Tabbed Browser Extensions installed with nearly everything set to open in a new tab.
I'm not sure what setting it is. I've done everything but disable the extension and it still opens in a new tab instead of the frame. So looks like they did not do very extensive testing.
I also tried it on a Windows 98 computer with a fresh install of FireFox 0.9.1 with no extensions installed and it doesn't work again. When I click on the link to open the test page it just does nothing. I tried it with the msn site opened in a new window, a new tab and a new tab in a seperate window. Still nada.
It looks like FireFox 0.9.1 is not affected. Can anyone else reproduce my results?
I'm doing a website for a local chiropractor in turn for free adjustments for life. good thing too cause I got scoliosis that's been unchecked for a few years. Now I'm getting it all fixed up.
The one time barter I ever did was when I fixed a computer for a masseuse and her husband, a former radio personality in the Twin Cities MN. They have a huge ranch and lots of Clydesdales. For fixing the computer I got a free massage for my girlfriend at the time and they took us on a sleigh ride on Valentine's Day. Needless to say my girlfriend thanked me very nicely.:D

Sweet, Slayer Rocks. I'm so pissed that OzzFest decided to cut out their Somerset Wi stop. I was hoping to see Slayer get down and dirty in my home area.
I actually own a sucks.com. I recently registered www.subwaysucks.com for my brother and I. I am a former employee(One week) and he has worked there for 4 years. We are going to blow open the Jared conspiracy and others. We have no real problems with subway we are just doing it in fun and mean no harm to them. I still eat there every day.
