  1. Re:Beowulf Cluster on Japan's New Supercomputing Toy · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    and don't forget the ever popular... Now I can run Longhorn/Vista.

  2. Re:Cisco? on Cisco Eyeing Tivo/Nintendo for Buyout? · · Score: 5, Funny

    you know... wrote the thong song.

  3. Creationists believe in evolution... on Britons Unconvinced on Evolution · · Score: 1

    Creationists believe in evolution, but they just believe in micro evolution. This part of Science has been observed. They don't believe in macro, cosmic, and other base parts of evolution. Most science professors and teachers teach micro and then lump all the other kinds of evolution into it.

  4. Re:Stupid adware. on Feds Asked to Take Action Against Adware Creator · · Score: 2, Informative

    Yes, people tend to stop doing stuff after being stoned.

  5. DOA gets no respect on Review: Dead or Alive 4 · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I don't like hearing people who are used to their 30 hit combo's in killer instinct/mortal kombat 3 and up.... or the people who are button mashers who hate dead or alive cause they think it has nothing to offer than any other fighting games. DOA when you actually learn to play it offers a lot of strategy when playing against another (equally good) human player. You have to guess what their next move is and counter it (if you wish) or you can be on the offense. It is tailored for adaptation. Which can make a games replay value skyrocket. All other games are just trying to wait till someone doesn't hold the block button and kick them in the face.

  6. How much will this matter? on Analysts Predict Dell to Use AMD · · Score: 1

    Dell has been making proprietary power supply's and motherboards since I've been working with them (almost a decade). If they intend on doing the same thing with the amd models I don't think it will matter to most of us. What will you do when your dell mobo's bad caps start exploding like firecrackers. If you have no warranty, you will be buying a new machine or paying whatever dell wants to charge for their proprietary junk mobos.

  7. Right.... on Analysts Predict Dell to Use AMD · · Score: 0, Redundant

    and the next thing you are going to tell me is that Intel is going to make processors for Mac ;)

  8. Did anyone read the review? on AMD Releases Dual-Core FX-60 Processor · · Score: 1

    The only benchmarks that the fx-60 got beat in was sisoft sandra and some speech recognition app that they only got beat by tenths of a second. In real world benchmarks the 955 extreme edition couldn't touch the fx-60 in other benchmarks. I get a feeling the poster didn't read it either.

  9. Gussy it up however you want. on MS Unveils Beta of New Image Editing Program · · Score: 1

    What matters is does it work? Because I've used devices like that before - wasted a pretty penny, I don't mind telling you. And if acrylic works I'll download a dozen!

  10. Re:Sick of Scumware! on How Much Harm Can One Web Site Do? · · Score: 1

    Most of the time before spyware installs you will get a popup yes, no, or can always just click the "X" in the top right hand corner. No matter which one you click there, it will install it. Instead of clicking any of those options just bring up the taskmanager and kill Iexplorer.exe. This will stop it from installing in the background. Granted it will kill the page your on and perhaps another search you may be on, but you can always look that back up. Spyware will take a good while longer to remove than just killing IE. But as everyone on here will state... just use Firefox.

  11. Favorite quote on RIAA Sues 12-Year Old Girl · · Score: 0

    "Nobody likes playing the heavy and having to resort to litigation," said Cary Sherman, the RIAA's president. "But when your product is being regularly stolen, there comes a time when you have to take appropriate action."

    EVEN IF IT MEANS SUING A 12 YEAR OLD.

  13. I'm the slow clap guy on Apple's G5 Speeds Challenged · · Score: 1

    *stands up and starts clapping* I agree with what your saying. Why just settle for one. You really limit yourself by doing so. If you love technology try to get your hands on all of it. I use a pc most of the time, but I use a mac for protools. Mostly because digidesign won't update versions for the pc.

  14. Problems will last for only a few years... on Why Johnny Can't Handwrite · · Score: 1

    if tablet pc's come more into the picture they may write even better. I know I'm learning how to write better everyday. My skills were slightly lacking having typed all day long, but I have become better at writing again using my tablet pc.

  15. Re:What can we do to help? on More 'Application-Specific' Optimizations in NVidia Drivers · · Score: 1

    Hey! I used to own a Jimforce 3 Ti200. I hope your not knockin the Jimforce series. ;)

  16. Re:What can we do to help? on More 'Application-Specific' Optimizations in NVidia Drivers · · Score: 1

    I just rolled the drivers back. It's not a big deal. I just expect more from Nvidia. I guess I stuck a thorn in the side of a NVfanboy.

  17. Tell me about it... on More 'Application-Specific' Optimizations in NVidia Drivers · · Score: 1

    Just yesterday I installed my 8x geforce 4200 and I installed the new detonator fx drivers and My antialiasing wouldn't work, but it did before I loaded it. Nvidia drivers are usually know for putting out a great driver that gives a few more frames a second, but I'm not giving up my antialiasing.

  18. It's never cheap on Cheap Audio Production · · Score: 1

    It is a heck of a lot more than 15 grand when you purchase the hardware that works with protools tdm hd setup. Then you have to buy a pc or mac to support it. The equipment to record it such as mics, I/O's, peripherals, cables, HUI mix boards, preamps, keyboards, and drum machines. Plugins for tape saturation and tube emulation that helps make your music sound more analog like really gets expensive. When all is said and done it is at least $25,000 - $30,000 for the whole setup. Protools LE gets a lot cheaper though, but I doubt 4 out of 5 albums are mixed with that.

  19. Re:ALL platforms? on EA and NVIDIA in Alliance · · Score: 1

    Why isn't this modded (Score:5, Funny)? I doubt we will ever see great games under linux.

  20. A buck won't buy you much these days on Apple to Launch Music Service? · · Score: 1

    I could spend a buck buying the song or spend it to dial 10 10 220 and saving on all calls to the RIAA up to 20 minutes and just 7 cents a minute after that to plea bargin my case.

  21. OLED problems on Thin, Flat LEDs · · Score: 1

    The problems with OLED is the shelf life of the colors. I heard that red and green last about 10 years, but blue lasts only 4. They have been working hard just to get the blue to last even 4 years. Let me know if you have heard anything else about that.

  22. Some people fear god too... on Should you Fear Google? · · Score: 2, Funny

    ...but people still bug him with query's.

  23. Re:Pirates taking food from my kids mouths. on Uni Students Slammed For Music Swapping · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Just because 100,000 people downloaded Stayin' Alive by the Bee Gee's last week doesn't mean that 100,000 people would have gone out and bought it. I bet you 1,000 people wouldn't have gone out and bought it. Then the RIAA complains that they have lost money on 100,000 albums.

  24. Microsoft at it again on CEE2003: A One-Vendor Trade Show · · Score: -1, Redundant

    It is Microsoft putting the smack down on both companies. The athlon64 because there is no system for it yet and Nvidia can't keep up with ATI while they were sucking up to microsoft to get the bid for xbox.
