  1. Re:lets hope... on New Trailer for The Hulk · · Score: 1
    I think most of you all are taking pot shots at DD because of Affleck, but he's really a good actor.
    In Bizarro world maybe... Affleck is a pure Hollywood product, polished on the outside but with no soul and heart on the inside.

    I'm looking forward to the Hulk movie, though the Hulk in the preview reminded me an awful lot of Shrek, which of course is no good. Here's hoping they finish it off with style.

  2. Re:Well... on Half Life 2 To Appear At E3 · · Score: 1

    No, it would make a quarter-life. Really :).

  3. Easy... on PC Cases for High Dust Enviornments? · · Score: 1

    Just don't put up with it. The computer don't like to be in the cellar, so don't keep it there. I do have a simple solution for you though - get a cheap, non-working fridge. Drill a few holes for the cables and you're set. No dust, no cat hairs. It's not pretty, but you could tell everyone it's an extreme case modding project.

  4. Re:I'll miss the rhetoric on Opera 7.10 Released (First Opera 7.x For Linux) · · Score: 1

    Ah, longing for the days of Dan Quayle, are we? :)

    - Vietnam is a jungle. You had jungle warfare. Kuwait, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, you have sand. [There is no need to worry about a protracted war because] from a historical basis, Middle East conflicts do not last a long time.

  5. Re:What's not usable? on Ellison: Linux Will Soon Decimate MS Windows · · Score: 1

    The one thing that deters me from using Open Office is this: It's so sloooooow. Word XP opens a second or two after clicking on the icon on Windows XP on my AMD XP2100+ system, while Open Office Writer takes 30-40 seconds to load. It's almost faster to restart the computer, boot into Windows and start Word.

  6. Re:A nifty multi-card reader on Creative Uses for 5.25" Drive Bays? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Yes, but the Abit MediaXP is a better solution. If you got the MAX line of motherboards of course.

  7. Mild discomfort on Spider-Man Has Back Problems · · Score: 2, Informative

    The article says Maguire is experiencing a mild discomfort in his back after doing two physically intensive movies. Really - if I were him, mild discomfort wouldn't stop me from doing the movie. :)

  8. Appeals on "DVD-Jon" Faces Retrial · · Score: 1

    You can appeal to a higher court two times. Put simply, at first you are tried before a lower court (lagmannsrett). If the sentence is appealed, you are tried before a higher court (tingrett) (a "middle court", so to speak). If the sentence is appealed, you are tried before the High court (Høyesterett). Now, it's not uncommon that an appeal will be accepted the first time, but very few appeals to the High court is accepted.
