The army makes a really cool system then either kills the program, or adds things onto it that turn it into a peice of shit (Bradley)
What I dont get is why NOW did they decide to kill it, they have been developing this thing for years, made a big deal about its stealth capabilities sold the public on its use and THEN decide to kill it.......
And they wonder why we bitch when they start programs? Here is a perfect example of them wasting away our money on a program that even with it set to go to production, was canceled.
USB would not exist if Apple didnt help it along... its as SIMPLE as that. I remeber all of the PC freaks spouting off about why does it have USB what the hell is that blah blah blah when they first saw it... and guess what.... 3 years later you where hard pressed to find anything NOT using USB.
And since Windows 98 didnt get USB support till late in the game (well after Apple put out the iMac, their first USB computer) then the fact is Apple pushed it along, it adopted the standard and people followed suit just like many PC makers are finally dumping the useless floppy disk.
And since you are so delusional to think that USB replace SCSI... name me a high speed harddrive using USB.... name me a Superdrive using USB that equals the speed of scsi.... guess what YOU CANT SHITHEAD....
Maybe your peice of shit eMachine might not use it but REAL computer users... you know the ones who dont spend 4000 on a fucking gaming computer instead of being smart and buying a xBox or PS 2 and saving the 3700 for games use it. The ones whos computer earns them a living and not searching the web for the Paris Hilton video use it....
go back to playing video games moron and stop wasting our time thinking you know shit.
NO WAY IN HELL.... as it is they are thinking about tossing Enterprise for a show about AMISH PEOPLE... UPN at the time was looking at Sci Fi as its thing... they had VOY, they knew they where getting a new trek show from the b's, with buffy and the rest of the shows they would have been on a different (and probably better footing) than the WB whos focus was teen dramas.
Then buffy tanked compaired to its WB raitings (in the most part cause of wierd seasons and a heavy kick in the ass by the WB proclaiming that Buffy season 5 was it's last with her death even though they knew it wasnt just to spite UPN for buying it)
And Ent's ratings nosedived thanks to poor VOY ratings before it and a poorly exectuted first and second season that was too 24th cent trek like... now the show is dooing MUCH better but will never get the audience back.
Angel was always the redheaded child of the two so the ratings wherent as good as it was, and Roswell is well dead...
ITs not UPN direction ("urban" comedies and reality TV are apparently even the redneck soap opera that is the WWE is doing poor on UPN cause they refuse to air ads for it and Enterprise unlike their other shows) Jake 2.0 a show that was TOLD it was going th whole year was pulled right out of the lineup after half a season 3 weeks after being told they where going to get that year... the UPN is dying....
LET THEM DIE
they later proved that the episode wasnt the cause there werent any more seizures than normal that day, another case of the media blowing something out of proportion...

my thought exactly... it might run OS X but if you really wanted to you cou.ld wipe the HD and run linux as well... no reason to leave it out of the comparison...
lol you know, only the good games where ported to the mac... if you want shit you should have bought a alienware.. a overpriced computer that plays the same good games, and ALL the shitty clone wintel ones
and lets not forget they are switching over to the 90nm die set.. and it is known those chips run cooler and with less power, hence the G5 xServe..
I could very well see three of these in there, heck If Micro$oft would suck it up, Im sure Apple would even help them.... they DID try to do the PC based gaming machine first remeber, even though they pulled the plug before they spent the money. If it became a joint Microsoft/Apple/IBM gaming machine, using all of there ideas and tech they could CRUSH Sony
let also not forget to mention that nothing says they will port their OS to the system... I could ALMOST see them secretly putting on a Linux or Unix OS on the system... THAT would be a laugh, given how often they bash it.
Besides there are secret ports of OS X for the PC at Apple, what is to say M$ hasnt done the same thing themselves... they DO own a PC software emulator company now too....
But the last thing is.. its speculation and its just the chip.. Apple doesnt make the chip, and there is no ROM on the chip that forces it to be Apple only...
same here about the SNES... the worst choice nintendo made was the censore MK, and it DID hurt them, that was the point where sega's sales did pick up if you read "The History of Videogames" but they had FF and that and Dragon Warrior where the onloy two games I really played from 4th grade on...
Its funny you said Disgaea cause my girlfriend just picked it up on recomendation of her game grrls community and has lost sleep to it...
I was thinking the same thing though when i was watching that MTV special recently... unless it has flashy graphics or something they cant be bothered... it almost pisses me off the people who write off the first 6 FF games JUST cause they arnt in 3D... I mean GOD when did gameplay stop being important and pretty colors start?
And considering half my SNES games came well AFTER the system was considered dead cause I finally made money by then to spend some on games... I know ALL too well the deal of scratching up pennys to buy a ATARI/NES/SNES/GB game. Yet funny enough I still play those games and my new 10 in one Atari Joystick game vrs FF X-2 which I am thinking of giving to my GF cause i cant stand it
It's almost funny to think of it now, but in the early 1990s, Sega was an extremely aggressive competitor to Nintendo
Am I really THAT old to have not found it that funny... I mean it was a huge pissing contest between which you had, a sega or a nintendo and which was better.... how is it shocking that Sega used to be a competitor??? Because they dont exist as a system maker???? Using that logic is like saying its hysterical that Atari owned the marked untill 81!!!!
Im 23 and I remeber getting a 2600, Nintendo and Super NES for christmas... I even remeber when the Playstation came out, do young people REALLY not know the history of video games????:-\
oh dont worry, SHES more likely to have the website up before I am.... She's the one that owns a domain name and all, Im just the poor boyfriend who shows up on her webcam...
Its so HOT dating a geek
in there top 20 games of all time deal, they talked about the weightloss benifits of doing DDR... well my girlfriend, game freak she is, but not really into jogging and stuff, saw that.. she went out bought 2 pads AND the game to play at home.
I will put a website up in a few months to tell yolu guys if she lost any weight or not.
