What someone should do is create a website where people can electronically sign a document that at the end of a month or two is sent to Nintendo and Green Wellings showing how many people think that Nintendo has done everything correct so far in replacing straps and that this class action lawsuit should not happen. I know the EFF has electronic signatures all the time, but I'm no lawyer so I wouldn't even know where to start. I would be willing to host such a document though
I think Nintendo has done everything right so far in replacing the straps for anyone who wants them. I have a Wii and personally the controller has slipped out of my hands one time and the strap didn't break. I hate to see these lawyers ruin a company who has done the right thing to the consumer so far.
I see both sides of the story. The school which I attend, WPI, has been doing this for a long time. You will get your port shut off and your internet access denied if you set up your own router of any kind, including wireless. Any extra computers on the network after the first one is extra money out of your pocket. Our school even goes around with wireless sniffers to detect student set up wireless networks and many kids have been busted for this.
I'll have to disagree with a lot of people. I saw it this morning at 9am and I thought it was a good movie given the previous two. I won't deny that the first Matrix was the best of the three, but I feel this one really did a much better job than the second one. I'm going to watch the first two again before I go see the third one again tonight with all of my friends. It seemed like they did a good job of tying things together. I felt myself saying a lot during the movie, wow, I see why they did now.
Just my $0.02
I didn't see anyone mention the Nikon DSLR camera. I'm a big Nikon fan (I own the CoolPix 5700) and am thinking of buying one of the D100 in the next year or so. If you really want quality and are willing to spend the extra money, I'd highly recommend the Nikon line of camera's. I've had nothing but good luck from them.
Well, it might be that the Department of Homeland security itself is using Microsoft, but they might be the only ones. I work for a company that is directly involved with DHS and we use mostly linux software for the work we do. As a matter of fact, we are DoE contract and if it can be done in linux, we do it in linux, otherwise we succumb to the dark side. So there is hope yet.
