  1. Re:Nothing to see here... move along... on Did Microsoft Invent The iPod? · · Score: 3, Interesting

    Well, I think Apple is looking at this from the "Turn-about is fair play" view. Microsoft stole from them, They steal from microsoft, It's just the way life works.

  6. Not again! on Episode III Opening Crawl Released · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Why does it sound like the story line to Episode I? Seriously, Kidnapped (Captured) Political Figure, Jedi go save her. They dont need to use the story line from Episode 4 all 4 times.

  7. Re:Pringles - Available in Denmark? on Wireless Community Summit Tackles Digital Divide · · Score: 3, Informative

    http://www.speakeasy.net/ They provide DSL service that allows sharing the connection with your neighbors (And they'll even help you bill your neighbors!). On another note, Check out the WRT54G made by Linksys and get the sveasoft firmware for it with some aftermarket antennas, Works great!

  8. Apple! on Terabyte Storage Solutions? · · Score: 1

    There are lots of companys out there that offer raid solutions.

    Right off the bat, Apple makes the XServe Raid
    http://www.apple.com/xserve/raid/

    Ot would work for that purpose rather well.

  12. Re:Sepatate female matches? on Girls in the Gaming World · · Score: 3, Insightful

    One would hope not, But unfortunaty Pennis Envy is all too common in the gaming world. When some guy is playing in a tournament and they get schooled by a girl it gives them that feeling of insecuirty.

  13. This last weekend on Girls in the Gaming World · · Score: 3, Interesting

    I atteneded an event called LanSlide, 60 person lan run by girls. I have to say it was a much better lan then some of the similar sized ones I've been too. And the organizers are more then just your avarage girls so theres no "A/S/L" shit and on top of that, Hell, there fun to play with.

    I have a Compaq 2100 series laptop and it barely gets hot unless I leave it on in full power mode for a good 3 hours. Heat disapation isnt all that bad, it is the design of the specific laptop that matters.

    But it works (to an extent)

  20. Re:You missed the whole point, I'm afraid on New MP3 License Terms Demand $0.75 Per Decoder · · Score: 1

    It is free for non-comercial and private use so that there keeps software like XMMS going. The only reason companys like redhat have pulled MP3 decoders from there distros is they sell versions of there distro that include them and as such would make it a commercial product. The RIAA can go screw them selfs and there is nothing to say there arent already watermarks in the files we just dont know about.
