"This is a prime example of the Bush Administration's incompetence. We have 135,000 troops in Iraq, we're pulling troops out of South Korea, and now it turns out that North Korea - our sworn enemy - was allowed to develop nuclear weapons."
Bush turns around and blames Clinton, Japan, China, Putin, whoever. "Heck, boys, I put Korea on the axis of evil list, but I-raq had to come first."
Kerry shouldn't be campaigning on the fear ticket anyway - I reckon people are sick of fear
When the price dropped, I bought one and moddeditout. It makes a wicked little living room all in one media center, once you strip out all the MS crap.
If MS dropped the price to drive the sale of games, it didn't work on me, I've yet to play an acutal game on it!
I suppose I should give some props to xbox linux, too. I had it running debian for a while.
Is it just me or is this whole GMail thing an April Fools prank gone horribly wrong?
Read the Google news release again:
The inspiration for Gmail came from a Google user complaining about the poor quality of existing email services, recalled Larry Page, Google co-founder and president, Products. "She kvetched about spending all her time filing messages or trying to find them," Page said. "And when she's not doing that, she has to delete email like crazy to stay under the obligatory four megabyte limit. So she asked, 'Can't you people fix this?'"
The idea that there could be a better way to handle email caught the attention of a Google engineer who thought it might be a good "20 percent time" project. (Google requires engineers to spend a day a week on projects that interest them, unrelated to their day jobs). Millions of M&Ms later, Gmail was born.
Kinda fishy.
... Linux Toys: recently reviewed on/. has a chapter devoted to exactly what you seem to want. I bought the book after reading the review... havent tried the answering machine (busy w/the laptop picture frame) but it looks easy. There's a website: http://www.linuxtoys.net too.
The PS2 disc, which, interestingly, hasn't passed Sony approval
I bought a similar product: the disc it came on was a modified 'blue' PSOne disc and refuses to boot consistently. Part of our tale of woe is here. The company has been promising (properly) re-manufactured replacements for months but no luck yet.

Car's 'black box' convicts Montreal driver
Quebec police won a dangerous-driving conviction Friday using evidence from the "black box" in the car, a first in the province.
The black box or event data recorder (EDR), which automatically records a car's speed and other information, showed Eric Gauthier was driving at least 131 km/h when he hit another car in downtown Montreal in April of 2001.
Yacine Zinet, 19, was killed in the crash.
There were no witnesses, but police used the black box in 20-year-old Gauthier's car to determine his speed and build a case against him.

He died in jail.
Yeah! I do that too. Real men use money clips. I've badly bent a couple of bank cards using this system, though. Tight pants, back pocket.

AdvanceCD is a bootable cd that contains the AdvanceMAME emulator and plenty of room for all your roms. Works like a charm.
Make that 3. Be sure to check out the case & cooling forum if you're into the OC.
I used Taxwiz last year, and plan to do so again ... its cheap ($10) and I e-filed straight from the program.
Quick and dirty.
an Xbox title of any kind is, sadly, nowhere to be seen in the Top 30.
./ afterall.
Shouldn't that be: an Xbox title of any kind is nowhere to be seen in the Top 30, ha ha ha Microsoft is going down!

Damn this article for coming out AFTER my families' Christmas. Maybe I'll stock up for next year.
Roger that! My brother's been pestering me for weeks asking what I want for Xmas. The calls stopped on Sunday. Too late for me!
There's a 'check latest prices' link next to all the box shots?
These games suck, now go buy them

Offtopic?

Ba-Da-Dah! Thanks, I'll be here all week.
Where I work, we close the office and get the week between Xmas and New Year off - with pay. It works out well.
No cash/comp bonus though. Nada.
