  1. Re:The way to solve the cartridge problem. on Dell CEO Tells All · · Score: 0

    The reason why I didn't buy the HP printer was it has the ink things connected to the head. So when you need to get new cartridge you need to get head too. And head makes it more expensive. Even if you do it thru a refiller guy you will eventually need to replace the cartridges so yeah...

  2. Why on New iPod Design Pictures Leak · · Score: -1, Troll

    do Macpeople in general get so excited about new products Apple announces it will release on schedule or be delayed? Are they that unhappy with what they have now?

    They could have called it any amount of names. Like 'Core' or 'Origin' or whatever gets you off. Why do you give a care? It's as useful as calling it an engine for a car. It's not for a car?!

    Why don't they just genetically engineer giant spiders that also have high IQs. That way they can spin the bridge and kill all humans!

    has been using -march to compile my applications and whatnot. After dismembering my morgan cored Duron, I was forced to use a normal, plain old 700Mhz one. Pitty I had to recompile everything again :). At around the same time my harddrive partition table imploded (my fault but I'm not blaming anyone ;P). Lucky I didn't have any backups of anything.

    It's not that they know the meaning of the word but recognise the sound and activity/thing associated with it. So when you say "bath", Rico runs away...

    Touche. My university went for PeopleSoft and are still paying [millions?] for it. But that's not PeopleSoft's fault. But these kinds of problems can be fixed by throwing more money at them ;P.

  20. Re:Cute, but... on 'Cut and Paste' Is Out, 'Pick and Drop' Is In · · Score: 0

    That's why they need to add a popup list on the drop event to pick what to happens. Or some tooltip popup in the same vain as spring loaded folders. Or both if a default action has been configured.

    When Apple does something it's miraculous. This is simple JIT assembly line. ALL OEM computer manufacturers do this. ALL. But when Apple does it, it's fricken like the messiah has landed. While I'm living on the edge I will say, "so with dual G5s is OSX snappier? Because it's as slow as GTK!".
