  2. WTF?!? on Andrew Leonard on LinuxWorld, Slashdot, and More · · Score: 1
    What's with this article. Is he slandering or making a joke or both?? Not a clearly written article, either way.

  3. I remember 1979. on Vintage Computers on the New York Times · · Score: 1
    The first year I got my little 7 year old hands on the PET 2001. It had a huge tape drive. I haven't seen a sexier computer than that one, period.

    I mean come on, you could push the 40 pound beast off a bridge w/o wrecking it.

    Course, around 1986 the joke was that it was only good as a hood scoop for your car, or to hold up the car when you needed to do repairs under it.

    I'd love to get my hands on one of them....

    -If a search engine works and is quick, I'll keep coming back to it.

    -If there is only one ad on the page I am more likely to click it.

    -They could charge their advertisers more $$$ with a higher click through rate (w/one ad only)
