  1. Re:An important thing to realize.. on ESRB Revokes San Andreas Rating · · Score: 1

    Best Buy and Target also will not carry A.O. rated games. They immediately moved to pull the GTA titles from store shelves already.

  2. Impact Velocity on Genesis Capsule Crashes; Chutes Blamed · · Score: 1

    According to the NASA news conference I'm watching, the science team gave 190 MPH as the new estimate for the speed at impact.

  3. Re:Better focus or Mac to be axed? on Apple Creates new iPod and Macintosh Divisions · · Score: 5, Informative

    The thing that I find the most notable about this is that Jon Rubinstein (not going to check the spelling, sorry) is the guy that everyone lauds for the iMac, the tiBook & the alBook, the cheesegrater, and the iPod's excellent design. You'll note how four out of those five items are Macintoshes and not tiny consumer electronic devices.

    Are you sure you're not confusing Jon Rubinstein with Jonathan Ive? Ive is usually credited for the design excellence you mentioned.

  4. Re:I call BS! on Who's Behind the Shower Curtain? · · Score: 5, Informative

    Mozart was Austrian. The famous joke usually invokes Beethoven who was German but composed in Vienna.

  5. Spirit commanded to lie? on Spirit Rover Communications Error · · Score: 1

    Spirit was told to lie about its mission purpose - by people who find it easy to lie. Spirit doesn't know how.

  6. Re:Says a lot on RIAA Sues 12-Year Old Girl · · Score: 1

    At least pick a fight with someone CLOSE to your own size.

    It's not the size of the opponent that matters, but the ferocity.

  7. Re:Shadow and Substance. on Apple to Announce the Power Mac G5 at WWDC? · · Score: 2, Informative

    (won't someone think of the pr0n collections?)

    Speaking of pr0n, here are some on-topic boudoir photos of the PowerPC 970 (attribution: As the Apple Turns)...
