When I was younger and felt the need to prove my geek credentials I'd build my own machines. Problem is I could never afford top of the line parts and I was always on a Celeron with a budget video card.
Now I lease. Have a better income and my own business so i can write it all off. Might be looked down upon by geeks for owning a Dell but my P4 3.4 with 1g or ram and Geforce 6800 GTo (with pipelines opened and overclocked,) Spanks anything I ever built myself.
Dell has always treated me well. My hardware/software has only had 1 problem that I couldn't solve myself. (Motherboard went on laptop. Overheat I imagine. Sent it off and Dell had it fixed in under a week.)
Dell support gets a bad rap. How can you explain over the phone to someone how to fix their computer when they can't even get to the control panel? A true geek should NEVER expect tech support to know more than they do. You pay for techsupport in the event of hardware failures.
I remember seeing a program talking about how insect flight is much more efficient than traditional methods... Something about the downstroke of the wing creating a vacume that pulls it back up. Might have been another ether induced hallucination though... Ah Poppin Fresh...
1/2 of the originals weren't exclusivly about the Jedi. Why do the prequels have to be entirely about them?
I'm hoping there is at least on space battle with some capital ships and the land battles have some dialog and not comedic one liners.
Why the hell am I paying 120 bucks (CAD) for the special extended editions when they're releasing a boxed set that's going to have all extended edition has and even more.
I'd understand if each version had original content. But when they all have the same material but the newest version has and extra 5 minutes of special features but cost ten dollars more than the already overpriced 40 dollar version it's just insane.
Use a program like DVD decryptor to rip the entire DVD and then use dvd shrink to convert them to an image file. Use a program like Alcohol 120% or Nero drive image to mount the iso on a virtual drive and your DVD viewing software will treat the virtual drive like a DVD rom. You'll have the menus, special features, everything...
DVD Shrink also lets you rip out the other language tracks/subtitles that you don't want and you can save some disk space.
I'm not sure if copyright covers fair use or monopoly. I'm no law expert, but I work as an IT in a law office, but I refuse to pay full cd price for one good song I hear... I also refuse to pay a company, that promotes the song, more money than the people who made the song.

There's always the poker face. They expect everyone to roll over and pay. You can argue *practically* anything in court these days. Temporary Insanity? The Menendez Brothers hung the jury first time around. Time to make the law work for the *good* *normal* people as opposed to the psychos.

PAYBACK'S A BI*** ISN'T IT MOTHER FU****!!!!! Bout time people called the bastards on this. This could be good or screw us all... I guess they could try to soak me for 10 million.... but Kevin Mitnick told me how to get a new identity anyway. Right Here.
Anyone else notice how Pippin's hand are unbound in "The Two Towers" when the horse is about to trample him after the Orks are attacked by the Riders of Rohan. As Aragorn recounts what happened it showed Pippen about to be trampled with unbound hands and then a couple minutes later it shows him cutting his ropes.
Working outside in a snow storm in the middle of a Saskatchewan winter is not fun. The ramps get covered with ice and your constantly falling down trying to get into the truck. The people your moving are constantly closing the door trying to keep the heat in so you always trying to juggle a dresser and open the door at the same time.
Matresses and boxspring have the added bonus of acting like giant sails in the wind. So your always being thrown all over the place.
Well... They found out how to detect changling in DS9 and they developed a disease to kill them. I don't think the Federation would have much problem keeping spies out.
On a side not I always like how the federatino was protecting their own quadrent and not expanting into another. I really want to see a series about the aftermath of the dominion war... voy and ent are no help...

Seriously. People visit both sites. Can't we get original content.
Sorry our Govn't can't be as easily bribed by entertainment companies. Go away and leave us alone.
Really sad about his. Told my wife and cried in her arms. Only show I tuned into that is not in reruns. Fuck TV sucks. Yoho

Propaganda from the youth... Our next Hitler's Children... What's next Oscar talking about buying the Sesame Street Cd?

North-eastern U.S. and Canada... We're more than one province...
Justin Frankel is/was the main programmer behind winamp, shoutcast, gnutella, waste... list goes on and on... Kind of a cult hero to some...
ALL PHEAR THE FRANKEL!!!
Step 1: Create a program everyone uses with a security flaw.
Step 2: Leave the company you made it with.
Step 3: TAKE OVER THE WORLD!

Both DVD Decryptor and DVD Shrink are free by the way.

Now that's nit picking.

The only show I actually tune in for in first run television. Time for another write in campaign I guess.
at least when they censored information before they tried to cover their tracks. Talk about sloppy...
Get ready to be "Blaster"ed in the ass... Keep a tight grip on that soap boy...
Since our cultures most famous HAL robot turned out to be such a great piece of equipment.
I can see it now. I'm losing my balance Hiro... We're going to fall Hiro... Daisy daisy give me yoooooour... aaaaaansssswer...

Do the virus writers name the virii or is it Antivirus companies?
In any event... Whoever named this doosey has a real... Inferiority Complex. If you get my meaning...
You might say he... Is trying to make up for something... If you get my meaning.
You might even go as far as to say... He has a small penis and named the virus sobig because he is ashamed of it....
Wait...
Maybe I went to far...
