  1. Re:Humorous on Google Tries To Silence IPO Rumours · · Score: 1

    lol, i guess it did.

  2. Humorous on Google Tries To Silence IPO Rumours · · Score: 1

    Apparantly the Slashdot grammer checker broke on the last sentence of this article.

  3. Confusion on Senator Calls For Copy-Protection Tags · · Score: 1

    Everytime there is a story like this, the title always throws me. They make it sound like it is for copy protection (like proposing a new restriction) but then it ends up being against. I guess sometimes it's just a little ambiguous.

  4. Re:Dvorak is a Lunatic when it comes to Macs on Dvorak Thinks Apple Will Switch to Intel · · Score: 2, Informative

    I know that, I meant exclusively. They only use them for the G3. That means only the iBook. IBM did do some G4 development but Moto currently makes all their G4s.

  5. Re:Dvorak is a Lunatic when it comes to Macs on Dvorak Thinks Apple Will Switch to Intel · · Score: 1, Interesting

    For one thing, they have already started making the motherboards.

  6. Dvorak is a Lunatic when it comes to Macs on Dvorak Thinks Apple Will Switch to Intel · · Score: 4, Informative

    If Mr. Dvorak had bothered to do the slightest bit of research before writing another baseless artice, he would know that Apple is switching to IBM processors, not Intel.

  7. Re:Looks like the bad guys got the last laugh on Apple Terminates Safari Seed Program · · Score: 1

    Yeah, that's what I meant, should have been more specific.

  8. Re:It's out? on Apple Terminates Safari Seed Program · · Score: 1

    Did you see his latest entry?

    "... if there were a Safari v62, and it did happen to leak to the public, and someone did happen to run it, and that person did happen to discover a bug with text-decoration, well then I would hypothetically be most grateful, and would in fact fix such a bug with the utmost expedience. In fact, it might even be fixed already, assuming of course there were such a build, and it did in fact have this problem."

    i laugh every time he says that

  9. Re:Reason for Private Seeds. on Apple Terminates Safari Seed Program · · Score: 1

    Really, I've had less bugs with it than any other of the unreleased verions.

  10. Scapers Commercial on Farscape Finale Tonight · · Score: 1

    Wow did anyone else see that. Some really great exposure there for the movement.

  11. Re:SciFi channel is dead to me now. on Farscape Finale Tonight · · Score: 1

    They didn't "pick up" Tracker. They just reaired the first season of it. (It only had one before it was cancelled.)

    ABC broadcasts only 720p. (the only network station that does so)

  14. Re:Good idea on Satellite Access in Time of War · · Score: 1, Troll

    if (we take out Saddam) future = peace; else future = more terrorist attacks;

  15. Re:Good idea on Satellite Access in Time of War · · Score: 1, Flamebait

    The more resources they have, the faster we can win the war.

  16. Good idea on Satellite Access in Time of War · · Score: 3, Interesting

    I say let them have it. Better the Pentagon use it for something constructive than biased talking heads for their fluffed up stories.

  17. Re:Waiting on Strike on Iraq · · Score: 1

    What an ass!

  18. Re:Hmmm.. on Al Gore Joins Apple's Board Of Directors · · Score: 1

    I agree. Just because I don't agree with Gore politically doesn't mean he couldn't be of some use to Apple.

  19. There's no need to bail on Apple over this on Al Gore Joins Apple's Board Of Directors · · Score: 1

    All of you who are saying you'll never buy a Mac because of this are going a little too far IMO. Every company makes controversial decisions. How many times has Microsoft done something that has made your blood boil? (I think more /.ers use Windows than are willing to admit.) Just because a company makes one decision you don't agree with is not a good reason to permanently boycott them. If you were Steve, you could hire whoever the hell you wanted. Point is, you are not and everyone "thinks differently" and has their own opinion of the right man for the job. This is not a political rant (I did not vote for Gore), but maybe he will bring something to Apple that they can use. He's not Phil Schiller, he's not going to be in your face and most people will probably forget all about this after a few months.

  20. Re:New Xserve Cluster Node on R.I.P. Original iMac: 1998-2003 · · Score: 1

    That's on Google news right now.

    He's definitely not always shirtless in the movie.

  23. So what? on Apple Opens The Book On 17" PowerBook Specs · · Score: 2, Informative

    Someone apparantly thought this was a nonstandard Apple practice. In fact they have always provided detailed specs like these on all their systems.

  24. Re:susan sarandon? on Children Of Dune Tonight · · Score: 1

    I think that it was probably something like that. They didn't have any other big name. If you remember the commercials, she was virtually the only name mentioned.

  25. Re:Just saw this on Children Of Dune Tonight · · Score: 1

    Yes, from a VHS tape. It isn't CD quality obviously but it still sounds pretty good.
