Apparently you never send emails from your alternate gmail accounts to anyone using Outlook... Unless you think that From headers such as "adolf@gmail.com; on behalf of; Adolf [sexyfreak1@gmail.com]" is an acceptable address to someone receiving your alternate address emails.
If your primary gmail account is sent with each and every alternate account you try sending through, then doesn't this make the alternate addresses pretty much useless?
I know this is a troll, but CR does not say that... They probably ranked the 7-series that way, but not the brand as a whole. The 3-series is usually held in very high regard by CR.
The wireless network card costs $100 retail. (Yes, it really costs $30 less than a Nintendo DS that includes wireless!) So any guesses what will they charge for an official "Xbox 360" keyboard? My guess is $90.
Wow. You have no idea how a monopoly operates in the real world, do you?
Back when AT&T ruled the telephone market, would you have told people to shut up about that anti-trust crap and say things like "AT&T must have been doing something right" every time someone complained about having to rent their handset?
After all, no one was FORCING anyone to use AT&T. They could just go without a phone. They won. Get over it.
So let's all roll over and die because making an effort to improve compatibility in the entire computing world might affect Microsoft's profits.
Do you have the $6 wap plan? Which proxy server are you using? I was recently able to use wap w/o any plan at all, but it has stopped working. I would pay the $6/mo to get my gmail, google maps, and opera mini working again, but I am still unsure that the $6/mo plan will enable them.
I wore a red shirt yesterday and a green shirt today. It was colder yesterday than it is today. Therefore, wearing a green shirt makes the temperature warmer.
I believe everything you just said is specifically covered by fair use. Now if you copy a CD you *DON'T* own or copy an *entire* book you don't own, then you are breaking copyright.
Lastly, nobody uses WMP to rip CDs with the DRM setting turned on (and the setting is off by default), so that's another moot point.
Wrong.
This setting is most definitely NOT off by default. It's under Tools > Options > Copy Music > "Copy Protect Music" and it is on by default for all users. I can't confirm this for WMP 11, but it is definitely so for 9 and 10.
Joe User is never going to go into the options menu at all, so he will only find out 3 years down the road when he moves his music that he painstakingly imported one CD at a time to the new computer and it suddenly doesn't work anymore. And the old computer is already gone. Oops!
There are actually quiet a few things wrong with his rant. Many of them being user error, some others being improper configuration. It's going to be much easier to hate the software if you don't know how to use it and it's not even set up properly.
Hmm, then either they changed their licence since 2003 or they have a bunch of licenses for this stuff. I'm guessing the latter. Maybe the University I went to didn't pay the maximum amount of money to Microsoft to qualify for a completely unrestricted license.
The license also says that it must be removed from your machine(s) after you no longer meet the requirements. That's what my XP Pro license I got from my Univertsity said. I doubt anyone listens, but it's there all the same.
Not to mention the fact that Nintendo isn't going to let you play without paying so there's a whole other paying for the same content in multiple media argument.
What's funny is people say that, but at the same time tout the xbox Live, which makes you pay for EVERYTHING including to play games you already bought! Nintendo doesn't charge me extra to play online games for free with the DS. That must be why it took them much less time to get the same amount of unique connections to Nintendo WiFi Connection as it took Xbox Live.
I should have said if you're using it with your bank, then yes, you will be forced to upgrade. This is from my Wells Fargo checking account:
Quicken®/QuickBooks®/Microsoft® Money Software Retirement
As the makers of Quicken/QuickBooks (Intuit) and Money (Microsoft) move towards improving their products, services, and security, the retirement of older versions of software is necessary. This ensures that resources are available to bring you the best possible products and customer service.
Software retirement schedule

Half of your points apply only when you're paying for Live every month. Nintendo's online services are free (at least so far), except for the back catalog.
And the other half was already on the original xbox, so therefore it's not an improvement. It looks like the only improvement is required HD support for each game.
Isn't the Revolution online service going to be free? The Nintendo Wi-Fi connection for the DS is free. No one will be willing to pay (especially PER GAME) when they see their friends playing ALL their Revolution games online for free.
So it just wasn't disclosed to the special court set up to receive such disclosures in the first place? I see. All we have to do is tell a couple members of congress and the 4th Amendment no longer matters!

Do you understand that the word "monopoly" when used in business, does not in fact mean 100% of the market? I thought everyone knew this by now.
Wow. You have no idea how a monopoly operates in the real world, do you?

Welcome to my friends list!
Arg... That also means no Opera Mini, which is infinitely more user friendly and much faster than the built in web browser on my Motorola V600.

"Has it made us safer? Obviously."
I wore a red shirt yesterday and a green shirt today. It was colder yesterday than it is today. Therefore, wearing a green shirt makes the temperature warmer.
How is this reasoning any different than yours? Correlation does not imply causation

The show was pitched to Comedy Central as "Stephen Colbert does The O'Reilly Factor." I'd say it's right-wing...

That's true, but I can go to the library and read all about Billy the Kid and similar fugitives.
The 50's weren't like Leave It To Beaver, and the Wild West was called "wild" for a reason.
I don't understand it either. It sounds kind of like something I'd hear from a reporter on Fox News. I guess scare tactics still work.

Wait a year or two. The parent is correct.
Wow, how all they need is the Big Brother Is Watching posters and they've successfully recreated the book!
