The trouble with people's misconceptions about IT is that they arent so much misconceptions.. If your company is using P3 1gh+ processors, then unless you user higher end apps, there is no NEED to upgrade the equipment. 1gh is more than enough to run office suites in windows, most graphic programs work fine.. If companies can float for another year w/o upgrading, the price drop in equipment more than justifies the wait. Just feel sorry for those of us using 500 machines.. We all float down here.. (IT, get it? lol)
Does anyone else remember back when the x-box was being previewed/released? It was far and above what other companies were producing for gaming systems, as far as hardware went.. There was talk of M$ selling these cheap to get one into everyone's house so that later on down the line they could implement a new OS/software whatever for the box. Since people would already have the boxes, they would naturally go with whatever M$ decided to add onto/change..
Having someone hack the box ties into this paranoid theory.. it only makes sense for them.. they are going to need that info in the future if they ever want to develop any changes for the xbox.. why not let someone else do the legwork and then incorporate a "fix" for whatever flaw(s) are found, and tote that as one of the new "features" of whatever it is they decide to go with...
The romans didnt believe in doing anything small, did they? Checking out Gladiator on IMAX would be nice.. Would be awesome to see the collosseum on that huge of a format..
