They function if you store them well enough. I can't work my old Apple IIgs because the cables are torn up. By the way, if anyone can help me with the commands for KEGS32 IIGS emulator, it would be much appreciated.
You can't say that for sure simply because Google is STILL the best search engine out there. The one strike against Google in their legal power is that they no longer have ties to Yahoo. Good thing they'll soon have rich shareholders to back them up (as if they need it).
Remember him? Way back when, he was the red-headed guy who was reportedly "Played video games for a living." He was employed by Nintendo. He was basically a pro-games advocate.

The greatest group video game ever. You live and die with every twist, turn, wormhole, and inadvertent hyperspace. Check it out here. As fun as it is for one player, it is infinitely more entertaining when you have a bunch of good players and one with really bad aim who always turns the power down to 20 and kills himself by accident.
Yes, Hurricaine Floyd caused schools and businesses to close. Unlike other hurricaines and storms, though, it actually came through and belted us (Located in northern New Jersey). However, my dad told me that when he worked in New York, there was some big hurricaine coming (before I was born, which means pre-1987), and everyone was told to clear out of his high-rise. They claimed that if debris got picked up, it would crash through the windows and kill him. Scary, huh? Well, he worked through the night and the hurricaine missed him completely. The moral of the story? Don't trust weathermen. Ever. This keeps you from not having your homework on should've-been snow days:).
Why is everything good always in B-flat? The only good B-sharp ever was a Simpsons episode: Homer's Barbershop Quartet. Ah, a classic. Now, where can I find Homer at the Bat?
Forget Mavis Beacon, how about either "Mario Teaches Typing" (which is how I learned to touch type, and is probably available somewhere for download by now) or the new breed, "Typing of the Dead" which is basically "House of the Dead" but instead of guns, you use a keyboard weapon. It's true.
Of course, this was obvious enough even without scientific data. Haven't you ever had a flu shot? Let's listen to Lewis Black: "Whatever you do, don't get a flu shot. I got one. Every year they're scaring you into getting one, 'You know what people are doing? They're shitting out their mouths!' I don't like to brush that much, give me the shot! All a flu shot does is give you a cold for 365 days. You never get the flu, because you always have a cold!" Lewis Black is one of those presentation comedians, who really have to do it themselves.
To tell you the truth, about a quarter of my post was sarcasm, while the rest was my opinion on Windows and Dell. Dell may be the best truly mainstream computer builder, but they are still painfully inefficient. I actually use Windows Me, and I really don't like it. Unfortunately, I don't have a choice in my current situation.
This is a mixed blessing. On the one hand, Dell is offering pre-installed games (albeit with only one choice). This increases the number of people with the game, and we all know that when your friends tell you to play something, you should give in to peer pressure. On the other hand, this is just another app that the common computer user will never figure out. They'll probably try to do a straight delete of the game and accidentally delete their important documents in the process (so goes the way of Windows). You know, maybe if these people read Slashdot, they would instantly become intelligent and open-minded.
At least it's shorter than the Iditarod. In the Tri-state area (New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and more), there was a mock contest running on the local sports radio station that had tickets to sit on one of the sleds at the Iditarod for the entire race. Of course, they also promised that they would do all of the winners' work and homework and the like, so it was pretty easy to spot (I happen to be very gullible).
NOT TRUE! Anyone who has played The Simpsons arcade game knows that it is one of the best party games ever! Also, there is a Simpsons game for the Game Boy that was pretty fun too!
I've played one or two of those games, and I can attest to their awfulness. Still, nothing holds a candle to Skydive! for the PC. I (Capital I)couldn't make a game worse than Skydive! if I tried! Some games are just born to be bad.
P.S. This is the second time that this has happened, but I submitted this too! This gives me an idea for Slashdot. When our submissions are accepted or rejected, we don't know which editor accepted or rejected them. Maybe we could be told that on our homepages (or somewhere else). It would be like this:...(rejected by CmdrTaco)...(accepted by timothy) or whatever it looks like because I haven't had a submission accepted yet. Oh well, I'll keep trying!
I hate you, and all the other goatse.cx jokers out there from the bottom of my collective heart. Seriously, I always click on those because I don't know if it is goatse.cx or not!
Nice read. I wish that major computer vendors could offer other options as a result of a stripped down version of Windows. I also have one comment: I sent this in to. That makes 6 rejected stories for me and none accepted. Is that a record? Is anybody in the 10s? 100s?

Normally, I would mod you funny because right now I have points, but I can't resist telling you people how much I love hearing that "Profit!" joke.
