HD - Those shelling out in the hundreds for a NG console without HD should rather stay in current-gen for a while, or Wii which is cheap enough. Blu-Ray - Too soon to judge the usefulness of this feature. Harddrive standard - Good. Online - About time, everyone else has it. Wireless - Same as above, and only in the more expensive model. Not worth even $25 to me anyway. Compatibility - Excuse me. Compatibility with the dominant game base is a big deal for most people, so it can be a selling point. Especially as your PS2 will break the moment you look away.
Don't see what your point is and if you're disagreeing with me. There are "free" sites there, either financed by ads, welfare or anything. I'm just saying that not everybody has that same business model - for many services it's not feasible.
Oh and my website(s) are doing quite ok. Nobody owes me a living.
This time around one of them is not backwards compatible (requiring an extra lens that would make players a lot more expensive).
On the other hand, that same one offers a more advanced technology... although probably too soon and too expensive.
We have quite an unpredictable match in front of us, with many variables... provider partnership, manufacturer partnership, success/failure of the PS3, user need for HD, HD-TV penetration...
It's not farfetched to think HD-DVD could be dominant for some time, then Blu-Ray later... or not, if it was perceived as a loser and went belly up.
That's the informative bit. Any of us with even basic understanding of the Internet would find the rest of the post obvious. It was informative for the idiot, though - provided he has the necessary attention span, which I deem unlikely.
There are retards there who believe the "Intahweb" is a single entity, and that by paying an ISP some of that money goes somehow to page creators and maintainers. That is NOT the case, you idiots.
Not a penny from you or from any of my users get to my pocket through their ISPs.Bandwidth is not my biggest expense, but it's there. You can also argue that pages maintain and fix themselves?
Say you want to open an internet business. Go find a free dedicated hosting, please. Free as in no ads, no compromise, no money. Wish you luck. Granted your time isn't worth scrap, since you're a clueless idiot with too much free time in his hands.

Err, what are you on about? Lenovo is not owned by the Chinese government, nor does its profits go to the Chinese government (least nothing over and beyond what IBM would of had to pay when they owned them).
I can travel 30 miles in any direction and be far far from any 'over population'.
Which doesn't matter in the slightest. They are consuming resources from all over the world, be it the Amazon rainforest, oil from Saudi Arabia or cheap manufactured goods from polluting factories in southern China.
I'm also 29 and been programming since before I can remember. I do have a job in my field CS/EE - if you want a job based on market prediction (which I can do too anyway, as most seasoned geeks) then you should have become a market analyst. You should better look for a job where you can show expertise, or you will be rated pretty low.
Anytime you have any such issues, mail me at muyuubyou at gmail and I will look at it as soon as I can. There's linuxquestions.org too, just ignore the wankers.
I paid for both 98 and 98SE, and I think I booted 98 just a couple of times, as I use linux way more often (except when something forces me to boot Windows, like now - long job related story). It's called OEM computer embedding Windows. I have to buy many computers and sometimes I don't have time to build, and well, Windows comes shipped and PAYED. Where I live there is no way to get around this.
Anyway, I get your point. Just don't assume too much.
I'm the kind of linux user who doesn't give a shit what you prefer to use. Seriously. There are enough linux users already to make it viable, so just use Windows and everybody's happy.
Slashdot Mirror
Sure it is a ton of space, but not if you claim to be selling a media center. Drops the buying price point to me into 250-300ish.
I can play this too.

Doesn't have to. Not even a nuke would end with all them, and there are Farsi speakers in other places like Afghanistan.
I'd opt for harsh sanctions first, anyway. Nobody deserves a nuke, it's a very last resort. Not even Hiroshima-Nagasaki were justified at all.
In Spain you can see both Pajero and Montero branded cars. Not sure why, but it is that way.
You don't really think it's the same Dvorak, do you?
AVI is, just like MOV, a mere encapsulation.
Let me put it this way: there are no national elections.
Retard alert.
There is only ONE LEGAL PARTY in China. Get a clue and quit posting nonsense.
In Spanish, it pronounces as "uebos" which is too close to "huevos" (in fact 100% the same in most regions).
Means "eggs" or slang alternative to "testicles" similar to "cojones" or English "balls"
No me toqueis los Webos.

Reality check: Lenovo IS government owned.
How many people buy Thinkpads in Wallmart?

Now they will do. They're just switching their market for premium-buyers to cheapskates, or somewhere in between.
In related news, they will be selling in Best-Buy. http://news.com.com/Lenovos+Best+Buy+deal+may+att
I guess it all makes sense for them.
I don't see your point. InnoDB is a)GPL licensed
They could continue developing the GPLed version, they just have to keep it GPL. They can even fork.
...or just by temp difference between your eye and the air outside.
Not that bad for 100 gigs of content, but you would probably just lend him an external HD for some days and have it back.
I prefer that than some kind of restriction on the number of people I can share the data with. Anyway I agree on the importance of that figure.
I'm working on mine already just in case.

Holly molly, I missed that! Thanks for pointing this out, I'm still laughing while I'm posting this.
I second this, but just check the kind of trolls who jumped at the guy... for what?
The IQ level must be real low to have NewEgg fanbois... it's a freaking shop! and he did nothing but tell his anecdotal experience.
To be fair, AFAIK Windows malware doesn't make it to foreign partitions yet.
