  1. Re:Hard to do on GameCube ISOs Released? · · Score: 1

    In Europe, at least, Nintendo are trying their hardest to prevent import games being sold. In the UK it's (probably - no legislation, only a legal precedent) illegal to own an import game. No matter how honest you try to be it's illegal. They've kinda brought it on themselves...

  2. Re:We Are Doomed ... on Running a Research Lab on Free Software? · · Score: 1

    *cough* They were (are) also determined to take over the STB market. They've just sold their shares in Telewest, and in the (world famous) research building I'm in, I think all the STBs are running a non-MS OS. VxWorks mainly. And the guy earlier who mentioned NT was a "Real Time Operating System" - cheers, I needed a laugh

  4. Re:Program base doesn't equal success on YOPY Arrives · · Score: 1

    Ironically enough, everyone in my office with a PDA has a handspring, but they've pulled out of Japan, so when one breaks, you have to buy a Sony or something
