  1. OpenOffice.org on Gateway To Use Corel Over MS For Office Suite · · Score: 1

    I myself use OpenOffice.org for MS Office compatibility but I also bought Lotus SmartSuite 9.7 on eBay. I just use it for word processing, it fits my needs perfectly.

  2. Pie Gates on MS Reveals Big-Name Xbox Games · · Score: 1

    I believe they could make a fortune if they released a 3d "Pie Gates" game with network play.

  3. Good Ridance on Baseball Cracks Down on Fan Sites · · Score: 1

    When I was growing up I never watched american soccer and baseball, I always watched NFL and NBA. I still watch NFL and NBA but I also watch soccer. Guess what, I still don't watch baseball. Nobody I know watches MLB, its too boring. They just read the scores in the paper while they're in the shitter. Hopefully the MLB goes out of business so America can get a new pastime. I think my favorite sport now is soccer.

  4. NVIDIA optimised on Running Windows Games with WineX · · Score: 1

    My brothers duron 1ghz, 192 mb ram, and gf3 ti200 runs GTA 3 WAY better than my 1.2ghz, 384mb ram, and radeon 9000 pro. This to me, suggest the game is optimised for nvidia video cards. His comp runs the game at 1024 x 768 x 32 and there is only the occasional stutter which from what I've read is due to the crappy programming. My computer, on the other hand feels like a slideshow. Every other game I have though, my comp runs them faster than my bro's.

  5. Re:Google undermines teachers on Students Outpacing Teachers With Online Skills · · Score: 1

    When I was in the 8th grade (1994) I thought I would get away by copying and pasting from my Grolier Encyclopedia which I had installed on family's Packard Bell 486 SX 25 mhz, 4 mb ram, 2x cdrom lol. Anyways, I did it in a hurry and I forgot to remove the copyright notices lol. Right before I turned it in I noticed that I forgot to delete them so I got some white-out and said to myself, "Teacher won't noticed". Well, guess what I got a D on the paper and the teacher had a little talk with me whic basically said im not as stupid as you think.

  6. Fortress?? on Students Outpacing Teachers With Online Skills · · Score: 1

    Well if im not mistaken the computers at my school were locked with fortress. You can't click on anything but the internet explorer and a folder they made where you can access your saved documents. They left the address bar available though in IE and the folder though....lol. Anyways, its frustrating to me that a 5th grader can already make a webpage and yet I don't have one.

  7. Big Shoes to Fill on VisionTek Folds · · Score: 1

    I wonder which company will fill Visiontek's shoes. I'm thinking Asus, MSI, or Gainward.

  8. Re:Never heard of them on VisionTek Folds · · Score: 1

    Well at Best Buy I always see PNY and Visiontek. Hercules doesn't make cards with Nvidia anymore, they are with Ati now.

  9. Lifetime Warranty? on VisionTek Folds · · Score: 5, Interesting

    So what about my Xtasy GF3 Ti200 lifetime warranty? I already replaced the fan on it with a Blue Orb because the fan was spinning very slowly.
