Maybe I was asleep when I went to class that one day, but I thought that the crust of the Earth was sitting on top of a ball of hot magma. Wouldn't this suggest that if you drill down to it that you would only create your very own private volcano? And, if you could get that close, how would you go about and keep the drill machine from melting? I assume that the boffins have thought of everything. So I eagerly wait to hear about the results.
and until I can play games at 1200x1600 32bit with 8x AA on a console...
The next gen consoles were meant to play at High Definition, 1900x1080i with 4x AA. Even better than what you had asked...
Now, if they would just come with a game/key pad and a mouse then I'd consider the remote possiblity that a console could overthrow a PC for gaming. Consoles have the advantage in the installation and the function of games by virtue of no install necessary and that each game acts as it's own operating system trimed and designed for one task which doesn't need to multi-task crap in the background like printers, networks, or a shell. It can be seen as an advantage, but not so much that it will overthrow a PC yet.
OMG! She's underneath the family dog giving it a lube and oil change service! How sweet is that! I bet her next boyfriend is going to love the knowledge of that. She better keep up the kink from now on, or someone's pooch will feel left out. It just wouldn't be right for the next relationship if she doesn't take care of man and his best friend!
The controllers are Bluetooth, and you can connect up to 7 of them to the PS3. That has me interested! My family loves party games, and well, the neighborhood likes to come in to my home to play too. I can imagine 7 player Bomberman or something in the future. I hope some developer will exploit this potential.
But those picture that you pulled up, they are four USB 2.0 ports, there is two more on the back of the PS3. And there is what looks like THREE Ethernet ports! (Two of the ports are output, someone say LAN Party?!)
Here's a better picture of the front ports: Front
And a picture of the back of the PS3: Back
I think the USB layout is good for memory sticks. Better than stacking since some sticks are too chubby for that. And I'd imagine that some people would get right on the PC support, eventually.
I would consider myself a Star-Trek fan, but I'd never pay that much for a season either. I'm even more froogle, I'd gladly drop $14.99 on a season. That's all I'd spend. I watched the shows for free, now they want me to pay dearly for it? No thanks, but maybe an exceptional bonus materials package would be worth the $14.99 to me. Especially if it's still stock footage and not remastered with enhanced 5.1 audio. If the price gets any higher than that, and I'm going to turn to alternate sources for the same shows, including P2P.
And I'm also a huge Dragonball & DBZ/GT fan. I'd gladly paid $300 for my autographed poster. That has a certain value to it for me. But didn't sponsors pay for these shows when they aired the first time?! And now they are airing re-runs, that's like bonus bucks or royalty's for a record studio isn't it?! But now that the TV studio got around to mastering a DVD, and put some nice art work on it, packaged it, and wants $19.98 per episode?! Guys, this show has over 500 Episodes! Hang on a minute!!! This is just too crazy for a show that aired for free on Cartoon Network a year ago. What's worse is that the transfer is exactly from the TV, the audio is still 2 channel stereo, and there is no bonus materials to speak of!
Basically, they want to get full price of a Hollywood movie on a TV budget. No thanks mister! Now that your consumer has demanded lower prices, are they going to comply or simply complain to the court?
If over the air broadcasts come in to my home, without my asking, for free... I'm a criminal for redistributing that show even if it's still free?! Am I a criminal if I ask for an episode of a show that I missed? Somehow I don't see the legal ramifications and why this is such a heinous act. Now if I was distributing and receiving premium channels, I may understand.
What am I supposed to do with the junk mail that is piled into my mail box? Am I a criminal for giving it to the trash man?! If my neighbor saved a coupon from their junk mail and offered it to me, is that a criminal act?
Close... I took my son to see "Millions" - a charming English movie about a boy who believed that Devine intervention blessed him with a bag full of pounds and he only has a few days to give it to the poor before the Euro renders the cash obsolete. That movie was a new release from what I know, no ad's that I'm aware of, and the theater was in San Diego. A city with millions of populous. However, despite being a good movie there was only 20-something people in attendance in a theater that could hold hundreds. Far from a sell out. And of that total in attendance was one large family from child to grand parent.
Perhaps the risk of deploying something new and better with the gamble that it would survive launch are just as bad as if they go up to service the Hubble? Or maybe NASA thinks that they can be successful at the Hubble mission, and they need some positive karma.
Nobody in the music industry grew up. They hatched.
The also skipped school in order to play Monopoly and the "Mine" game where you take things from others and shout "Mine" until people give in to your tantrums and let you keep it. School was merely in their way while they were forming their evil plot.
I agree! So they hired an artist to make a better looking start button. Wow, do I really need to upgrade to get a better looking start button?!
I'd much rather have drag and drop easy installations. No registry to screw up. No shared DLL's. Performance. And to never have to install a print driver again.
Sorry, but wireless and games are not compatable in the same sentance unless you add "Internet Checkers" as the only playable game. They may have some incredable advance in transmission reliability, but from my experiances, games update too frequently to be played over wireless. I still prefer a switch + router for games.
Hey! Wait a second... I do have cable radio channels and listen to them. And I do listen to radio in the background while I'm working around the house. And, well, I don't watch MTV because they didn't Pimp MY Ride, yet, but when they do I'll resent your remarks!
I honestly don't watch any other show son MTV because of the lack of good music and what is shown in most videos is not much more than a teenage boys fantasy. *yawn*
Yahoo! you're still sueing XFire, you can't buy my love with some extra storage space because another company is providing more email room. Drop the lawsuit with XFire, heck - give them the money you would have spent on storage, then I'll reconsider how much your company cares about the public.
To me, it's a question of preferance. Boxers or briefs. Blondes or brunettes. Etc... Sounds like Ageia is finding out that true love is blind. They want 'em all!
I see too many artists that can't produce live what they produced in studio. They sound more like a cover band. And I've heard other artists that can produce their recordings live. This tells me that some producers are working their butts off to make some artists sound better then they actually are. And paying the artists would put these good guys out of work. In a case like that, paying the studio and hoping they evenly disburse the finds is the logical path to compensation. I can't say how many artists are like that, but I can say that there is more than the vocals and instruments that are in the chain of recording.
Any way, I agree with the OP - I think this is good exposure for AllofMP3, and I look forward to others lowering their prices to match.
Hilarious! What's next? Painting the upper half of the moon red like a Pokeman ball?! The moon could be more of a source of entertainment and not just surfing at the beach!
Could you be talking about a balloon that tried to go around the world without stop? I don't recall that as a success. But I do recall the past attempt at a two-maned aircraft circling the globe non-stop without refueling.
The shuttle doesn't orbit under it's own power. It uses two massive boosters to get to that altitude, so that's cheating!
I have no idea how you can stay awake that long! I recall Burt Rutan and his wife tried this a few years ago and there was some heat between them, probably set on by the lack of sleep. Judgement is sacraficed under those conditions.
I'm also a ReplayTV subscriber. Recently my ReplayTV had a hard drive die. I've had it for 4 years now, but I didn't expect it to go this soon. The device is so integrated into my life style that I was emotionally upset when I couldn't time shift TV shows. I stoped watching TV to install a new hard drive! And I was up and running the next night. Then I used the Internet Share feature of ReplayTV to catch up on the shows that I missed. Gotta love it!
My co-worker's cable company DVR can't Internet share shows. So this yet another advantage to having your own DVR service.
Wait, you mean I pay full retail price for a used item that has some lame red covered case instead of the original case?! Please tell me that the high rental fee's is going to be used as lube before they ream me with that price.
I hate this level of thinking. To think that you are the only person with an idea, and that no other engineer can comprehend caching inside a processor is insanity. And then to paten this idea... It's just backwards from what I consider productive thinking, and only serves to keep lawyers employed.

We never went to the moon. Those pictures are of weather baloons from a top secret experiment.

Oh yeah! I can finally get the camera angles that I deserve. The ones where it's virtually the viewer on the girl. Yesssss!

I suppose they would. And I also assume that a Flux Capacitor would be necessary to obtain those frequencies.
