Nintendo has an advantage here because long as it is a Nintendo ________, people will know it is a gaming system. However, Sony _______ wouldn't necessarily be a gaming system because they make other stuff: TV's, Stereos, etc. Same with Microsoft. The XBox and Playstation brands let you know that they are game related were as Nintendo is both a gaming brand and the name of the company.
I did love the camera work and the look of the film. However, I thought that the storyline had so much more potential. Overall, I was hoping for a film more like The Player, in that it combined great camera work/long shots with an entertaining story. I thought that CoM was more of an exercise in film making, rather than story telling.
After listening to him on TWiT for the past two years, it is pretty obvious that he will say anything in the name of self promotion. That being said, I kinda agree with him this time. I don't see how the iPhone can not fail. Even if it is an average success, the amount of hype that surrounds it will make it seem like a failure and unless new and better models come out a lot more often that the current iPod upgrade schedule it will be forgotten once everyone buys a new phone in 12-24 months.

The sometimes frothy, usually slimy, amalgam of lubricant, stray fecal matter, and ejaculate that leaks out of the receiving partner's anus after a session of anal intercourse. Named, by popular demand and usage, after legislator Rick Santorum because of his homophobic political statements.

Or you could just do what I did and use the tape to hold down the shift key all the time. Of course, the lameness filter nonw prevents me from using my "safe" PC to post to Slashdot. I guess Taco is in the RIAA's pocket, too!
I knew it was too good to be true. Now I will have to go back to driving to Blockbuster not once, but twice when I rent a movie. Or even worse, having to mail the damn discs when I'm done with them. What a pain!
I'm sure that it is less than that with Google, yahoo, etc. it is hard to find a site that takes more than a couple. Unless you meant hops in a networking type way?

The cancer scanner reminds me of the time that Dr. Romano diagnosed Dana Scully's cancer by trying to eat her right after the Super Bowl. Good times.

Yes it does sound familiar. It sounds like Watchmen.

I had high expectations for it and I was very disappointed. I still gave it 3 stars on netflix but I was expecting a 4-5 star movie.

What the hell is your problem? I didn't realize that jokes had been banned from slashdot... or did you just not get it?

It's John Tidor's fault!

Give it away for free? That may increase their market penetration... maybe. Perhaps pre-load it with porn? nearlygod

I want to buy an iPod but no one will sell it below the MSRP. So much for free enterprise.
I bought my record player at Best Buy just last year.

OK, looks like xBox360 is going to lose a lot of market share when it ships, probably starting in December when most of the new titles ship.
Probably since the XBox 360 has 100% market share for the newest generation.
I blame the Thetans.

Preach it, brother!
Get an IBM iSeries (aka AS/400) and learn to program RPG code.

Maybe the MPAA should inlist the help of Dick Tracy.
Cookies are a sometimes food.

How much commision are you hoping to get with that link? Enough for a new graphics card, perhaps?
My friend John Titor told me that the IBM 5100 is going to be very popular soon.
As you can tell from my sig, I agree 100%.
