Well, yet again, we have another article stating the obvious. Of course, if you buy better equipment, you're gonna get a better picture. Of course my PS2 will look better on a 50" plasma TV, with overly expensive cables. This makes sense.. otherwise, well, everything would be cheap now wouldn't it.
If you're looking for the ultimate in picture quality, and gaming flexibility, why not try This...
Morpheus referred inquiries to Wurld Media, which operates its shopping rebates program. Kirk H. Feathers, the chief technical officer of Wurld Media, said that it had been wrongly accused of stealing and that the company would readily go to court to defend itself.
Okay, is there someone out there that can explain to me how this is leagal...
Okay, we're going to divert money, that someone should have made through a click-thru ad to our pockets, from websites around the world, all without the customer knowing. Yes it was in the EULA, but something like this should have been a little more publicized. Personally, I feel that this is infringing on the peoples rights that set up the click-thru ads in the first place.
It does seem a bit funny that a high speed ISP would partner up with a file-sharing company that eats up all their bandwidth. While some ISPs are figuring out how to ban them, others are joining with them. I hope they have a lot of bandwidth to spare.
Well, as the old saying goes, if you can't beat 'em, Join 'em. But I think there's a hidden agenda going on here. Why would any ISP pay someone to get people to sign up to use a service that just tears through their bandwidth. Either they've got a really good solution to the problem, or they've been puffing on the hash pipe too long.
Well, according to this/. post I don't suppose we'll be seeing headlines from Danish websites there anytime soon.
I suppose that google will now be fueling the debate over deep-linking rights, as it appears that all of their stories deep link right to the article, instead of the main website. This could invariably cause problems for the anti-deep-linking supporters.
McGuyver has made plans to begin work at MIT in their research department to create supercomputers from old ballpoint pens, and outdated telephone mechanisms.

UT2003 & Linux.... Works for me
on
UT2003 LiveCD
·
· Score: 2, Funny
Now coupling a blazingly fast Linux port, they're throwing in UT 2003. What more can one ask for?
Maybe a coffee maker built into my PC to keep me awake for days while playing.
Most interesting is that this CPU will have a 333 MHz FSB...It is expected that the novelty will be based on the latest Thoroughbred core stepping 1, just like the current Athlon XP 2400+ and 2600+, and will work at 2.17GHz."
This seems puzzling to me that they are releasing the 2700+ with the same CPU core as the 2400+ and the 2600+, over a month from now. The Thoroughbred core stepping 1, is only a temporary solution to the problem that AMD is lagging behind Intel, and they know it.
The Barton Core, which is supposed to be the successor of the Thoroughbred core, should be just around the corner. The new core runs with lower voltage, with the added advangage of working with a double L2-Cache, meaning processing power upgrade. Seriously I think they should use the Barton core instead. Granted it may take a bit longer to finalize it, but, that would make alot of the AMD faithful happy, because all they have to go on right now is sheer processing power, since the memory speeds of DDR RAM lag way behind the Rambus RAM that Intel's using.

I have another solution, how about the librarians just distract the FBI with flashy attire, and a good sense of style...

Microsoft relases cumulative patch for Internet Explorer 7.0 hours later...
The reason we don't have a browser war anymore, is because people LIKE buggy software...
not to mention the fact that Netscape 7.0 is already behind Mozilla 1.1... Way to keep up with the software guys!

...Microsoft has issued at least 30 security bulletins for flaws in its software.
Well, it seems that they're actually starting to solve some of the problems with their buggy and security flaw ridden software.
Well, as it's been said many times, the first step to solving any problem is to first realize there is a problem. The next step? Use Opera.
