This is the same sh*t they said about shopping malls when online shopping was the new thing.
These guys don't realize the fundamental difference between the movies and a DVD. The social experience! Why do you think shopping malls are still crowded even though we have the ability to virtually buy anything we want while taking a dump in your house?!
Likewise, the movies will always be a place to meet chicks, hug your girlfriend when they cry, and movie popcorn just tastes much better.
I agree. The only reason I stick with AOL is because I don't want to lose my damn SCREEN NAME. AOL feels like a community. Yahoo and MSN and more "web-internet" based ISPs feel more like a shopping mall.
ModChips allow consumers to use the hardware in a way it wasn't intended to, or to add enhancement or new features to the hardware.
But then I see no difference with that and cutting up my PS2 and using the shell as a crap pot and using the circuits to make a mouse trap electrocuter.
Check out his AOL Member Profile's personal quote...
"We're all pioneers in building this new interactive medium, which someday will be as important as TV or the phone. It is an exciting time -- and we should all share it. Please tell everyone about AOL, so they can join us on the electronic frontier."
That's the problem you see. AOL still thinks the internet is still new and people haven't found a place for porn yet.
Evil sharks with laser beams attached to their heads!
Heh, really though, why not put the instruments on dolphins. I watched a History Channel program on the Russians strapping surveillance equipment to dolphins and even using radio "mind control" to tell them where to go. Radio controlled dolphins. You'll have an endless supply of them!
However, a recent worm called "Bugbear" -- which records keystrokes makes them vulnerable to hacking attacks -- appeared not to have affected many systems in China, the newspaper said.
Apparently, only worms named "Chow Delight" and "Doggy Biscuit" were successful at invading most systems.
Come on you've gotta draw the line somewhere. Patenting an idea? What if someone patented the IDEA to use the web to provide a search engine patent information for the common people? That way the Pattent Office might have to pay that someone a fee if they ever implement such a service:)
Come on man you gotta have something concrete!
This reminds me of a virtual Koran that was recently made. You can read the Koran right off the screen, and to go to the next page, you use your fingers to turn the virtual pages by dragging a page from the right to the left, or vice versa. They called this some "new technology", which is crap. It's basically a fricken touch screen allowing you to "drag" things. As if this hasn't been done using flash. The only credit I give to it is creativity. But to call it new technology? Come on, any decent programmer can create something like that in a few hours or less.

Will be popular with the ladies.
Did you know that booting up your system takes a lot more power initially than to run the computer itself?
Good constipation = I still have enough energy to read a newspaper or anything off the back of shampoo bottles
If all else fails, I think they'll resort to encoding advertisements in the transmissions sent to millions of PC users.
Ma! These aliens are going to torture us with IGIA(tm) beard pluckers!
Music companies will still be releasing crap on those new formats, except this time around, the crap is more crisp and sharp.

Kinda like a bad constipation

Watch those AOL commercials and when you see old people and young kids with a smile on their face when they get mail it's cuz they know it's pron.

They'll charge you everytime you humm a song or recall a scene in your head.
Everytime I fricken install Nero, Roxio pops up and says that's bad and my PC craps out.
Disguise the dolphins as voluptuous blonde mermaids with a razor edged chastity belt.

I'd imagine they'd have beer taps directly feeding from the fuel supply.
Back in the 90's, we only used library books for a legitimate bibliography source. The actual paper came from the internet :)
