Media Player Classic is really a pretty nice media player. I don't know how it's related to the old Windows Media player, guess it was hacked (v6 I think), but it's really a whole lot different. Lots of support for different stuff. It's really a pretty good player, like SASAMI2k, BSPlayer and other players that aren't called Windows Media Player or RealPlayer.
Apple counts 4 MB per song, so you can count 32 songs. I've got a dirt-cheap 128 MB player (same price as a video game) and sometimes re-encode to 96 ABR in WinLAME, so then I can get over 40 songs. This is for less than a fourth the price of an iPod mini.
No it didn't. It was mentioned, but wasn't on the list. The fact that Doom III exists and is not just a fluff of smoke is enough disqualify it as vaporware, IMO.
If you took time to read what you're replying to, you would have seen that the OP didn't disagree with the article poster. S/he was just claryfying the point for others who may be confused about this.
Oh yeah... That NES packaging was great... The smell... Hm... I can't say I recall that very much, but since I was born in 87 and am a little brother, my older brother was the one buying most of the games. By the time I was buying games, I could mostly find them in used games shops, so the smell wasn't that great.
I'd still have a NES, if it weren't for the fact that, uh, it never was mine to begin with, so my brother frickin' gave it away. I've still got a copy of Ice Climber (PAL), in a very worn case but (apparently unofficial), black sleeve. though. *sob* I still have boxes for most of the games, but the games itself are gone... Big brothers suck.
Well, if you count "two weeks in the Fall and two weeks every month in the winter" as four weeks, well... Yah. But that's really 8 weeks. Just nitpicking.
Well, a rule of thumb is that if you have 3 or more consecutive words identical to the source, and they are not part of or make up a specific term, then you should consider revising it.
That's according to a certain Associate Professor who checks papers for plagiarism all the time. Specifically, my mother.
I was wondering about the Swedish thing too. Maybe he's thinking about Jon Johansen, the DeCSS GUI designer; some people don't seem to know the difference between Sweden and Norway.
I watched the keynote. Apparently, after requests by schools, it's now possible to author DVDs with machines not equipped with DVD burners. You can just save the "project" and transfer it to another computer with a DVD burner, to burn it there. Before the latest version, iDVD would not install on machines without DVD burners, though there was a hacked version available.
I think maybe it's time for you to learn something new today:
Irony: 2. A sort of humor, ridicule, or light sarcasm, which adopts a mode of speech the meaning of which is contrary to the literal sense of the words.
CD prices vary a lot. (Non-pirated) CDs in Asia can run as low as $3. They can also run as high as $30 in Scandinavia.
I also read an article about vegatable import in African countries; western countries sold food at a LOSS -- just to maintain monopoly and make sure local farmers couldn't compete. Happens with all kinds of products.
Well, my parents have been Mac fans for years, and I used our MacPlus way back, but, yeap. Looking forward to it. Was comparing the iBooks with PC laptops and found out that the PC laptops didn't really give me any benefits at the same price. And buying the Slashdot pro-Mac propoganda it just, eh, seems like a smart thing to do, since I need a laptop.
Strange. Never had such a two-way conversation of Slashdot before.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but there have been very few major improvements in word processing technology since they started making the page background white and the text black.
Well, there is spell checking, synonym/antonym listing, primitive grammar tools... and, of course, Clippy!
Not a lot of improvements, but synonym listing is one feature that I appreciate very much. I'm sure others can find more.
Right about South Korea (and North for that matter).
I'm curious as to whether this will include support for both Traditional (DPRC)and Simplified (HK & Taiwan) characters. The DPRC were, I read somewhere about a year ago, outraged that the RC (Taiwan) flag was included somewhere in some Linux distrubution.

Mod down; flamebait. It is perfectly possible to use a mouse with multiple buttons on a Mac.
You were sleeping in chemistry class, weren't you?

The use of irony in this context conforms to 2:1. You wouldn't expect MSN to start advertising for Mandrake, would you?

My mother does all that practically manually. Spends lot of time doing it. Might be a useful project.
I was going to suggest it be called Return of the Jedi instead, but then I remembered something...

Yes, the hack works with the iBook G4s.
I'm buying one this week, so...
I doubt someone who's overclocked an FX5200 will go right out and buy an FX5950 Ultra right after overclocking it...
Oh yeah, because you KNOW Wolfenstein 3D on GBA beats the hell out of Quake III on a laptop.

You're right, of course. Dumb typo on my part.

Which is why the OP posted anonymously. That makes it _not_ karma whoring.
