  1. Old news.... on Ubuntu Dell $50 Cheaper Than Vista Dell · · Score: 0

    someone had it figured out long time back.... http://linux.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=07/05/25/ 1529201

  2. Best job... on Apple iPhone Dissected · · Score: 0

    I think these guys have done the best job so far disassembling iPhone.... http://stream.ifixit.com/

  3. Google Reader on Google Gears is Launched · · Score: 0

    This is interesting, I visited Google Reader site http://www.google.com/reader/view/ and the popup to allow use Google Gears showed up!!! It has a green icon with an arrow on it to go offline. Once clicked it starts downloading all the feeds for offline viewing. Looks like the purpose here is to provide all google apps with online/offline work mode.

  4. Re:Virtual court system -- excellent! on Is Virtual Rape a Crime? · · Score: 0

    why not?? Linden Research, Inc. itself and the users of second life are already making money out of other things happening in the virtual world... why not this then?

  5. Virtual Cops and Laws on Is Virtual Rape a Crime? · · Score: 0

    I think they should have virtual cops and virtual world laws take care of it, instead of mixing virtual and real world.

  6. Hurry... on Microsoft "SiteFinder" Quietly Raking It In · · Score: 0

    Register Lexus-Financail.com, make it another http://www.milliondollarhomepage.com/ and send 2% to me for the idea :) Thanks.

  7. Re:Apple iPhone on Verizon Rejected iPhone Deal · · Score: 0

    I think Apple was not particularly looking for GSM or CDMA technology as far as US is concerned. They are after the network providers with the most customer base and thus #1 Cingular and #2 Verizon.

  8. Apple Phone on Cisco Sues Apple Over iPhone Trademark · · Score: 0

    They can simply just call it "Apple Phone" with Apple logo in front of the word "Phone", just like they did it for iTV to "Apple TV".

  9. BETA... on Google's Answer to Filling Jobs Is an Algorithm · · Score: 1

    I think one should wait till 2010 to apply for job at Google... as this "algorithm" will stay in beta phase for at least 2 years!!

  10. A new reason..... on WiFi in Your Rental Car · · Score: 1

    .... to tail-gate cars !!!

  11. I like IE7... on IE6 Was Unsafe 284 Days In 2006 · · Score: 0, Offtopic
  12. Google already has it... on Skype's Free Phone Call Plan Will Soon Have Annual Fee · · Score: 1

    http://maps.google.com/maps?f=l&hl=en&q=google&nea r=Mountain+View,+CA&ie=UTF8&z=12&om=1 If you see the result, it already has a "call" link by the phone numbers.

  13. "Best Quality" = BSOD on Virtual Earth 3D Beta Launched · · Score: 1

    As soon as I installed it and selected the initial setting to use "Best Quality", I got BSOD on my ThinkPad T41!!!

  14. Stay away from these guys.... on Google Unveils Code Search · · Score: 1
  15. Wrong crowd to analyze on Analyzing 20,000 MySpace Passwords · · Score: 0, Redundant

    I think the analysis is just one-sided, as all the passwords are coming from a phishing site. Thus coming from people who are not really internet savvy and that's why most of them have ridiculous passwords!!

  16. Smalltalk is the way to go on David Brin Laments Absence of Programming For Kids · · Score: 1

    Smalltalk has been very successful language for kids, especially its Squeak environment. Good places to start with http://squeakland.org/ and http://www.whysmalltalk.com/

  20. appointmentquest.com .... on ESR Gets Job Offer From Microsoft · · Score: 1

    It's interesting the appointment system used by Micro$oft recruiters (appointmentquest.com) is "100% pure Micrsoft(R) product-free environment" !! http://appointmentquest.com/about

  21. Yeah it does !! on Hiring Good Programmers Matters · · Score: 1
