  1. Re:400 Million? on Beatles and iTunes At Last? · · Score: 1

    I am sad to admit that I only own the "Love" album and the "1" albums. The others I am willing to look at.

  2. Re:Android on Apple Targeting Business World for the iPhone · · Score: 3, Funny

    Does this touch screen phone have a shiny Apple on its back though? Until then it isn't an instant replacement is it? :-P

  3. Re:Cold, Steel Grasp... on Apple Targeting Business World for the iPhone · · Score: 2, Informative

    Actually you can put it on your phone, just through the the SDK as they showed last night in the QT stream. So you can develop apps for yourself if you want, just not for others.

    Exploit the customer how? By paying for new software?

    In the press conference, Phil Schiller actually mentioned the opposite and there will be a system in place for enterprise software to be distributed outside the App store.

  6. Re:The bigger problem is Vista running on 158 Pages of Microsoft's Dirty Laundry · · Score: 1

    $129 every 3 months? Right, was this a joke or were you actually being serious?

  7. Re:Simple Solution on eBay to Drop Negative Feedback on Buyers · · Score: 1

    That idea is so simple and effective it won't be used.

  8. Re:I really wonder, whats with all the reboots? on Vista SP1 Release May Be Near · · Score: 1, Informative

    Removing all of Quicktime and removing Quicktime are two different things, please understand which one i'm talking about. If I drag the Quicktime Icon from OSX into the trash and with iTunes, nothing in the OS is affected, if I remove all elements of Quicktime from the system then it affects the OS. However, when you remove IE from the system (after figuring out the process because it isn't a program you can just uninstall) the OS won't work the same way afterwards.

  9. Re:I really wonder, whats with all the reboots? on Vista SP1 Release May Be Near · · Score: -1

    My point is that IE is a part of windows in such that if you removed it, you lose elements of windows explorer, if you remove itunes and quicktime, the OS isn't affected, you don't lose functionality. It's nothing like IE, get a clue please.

    Actually, you can remove iTunes and Quicktime from your Apple OS without impacting on the running state of the OS in any way... unless you wanted to use those programs, so it isn't like IE at all.

  11. Re:Marking me a troll doesn't change the fact... on In-Depth Review of the MacBook Air With Photos · · Score: 1

    Apple "got you" to pay for Leopard? What are you a weak simple minded fool who can't make his own mind up when it comes to purchases?

  12. Re:Collapsed? on Collapsed UK Bank Attempts to Censor Wikileaks · · Score: 1

    Thank you for explaining the reasons for why the government did lend NR money, the news I've seen never explained this to me, I think sometimes the news channels assume everybody has an understanding of such financing 'things' :-). Most tend to sensationalise rather than provide the in depth analysis.

  13. Re:See? No Monopoly on Sony BMG Dropping DRM · · Score: 1

    Please understand what a monopoly is first before using that word in a sentence.

    10 years for me and still with at least 3 years to go sadly.

    They may be a non-profit organisation but I bet the manufacturing company making them isn't.

  16. Re:Failure? Definately on Why Microsoft's Zune is Still Failing · · Score: 1

    Zunes are only now being sold outside the US, maybe that is the reason for not seeing them?

    Actually, I'd rather fuck the person he's fucking (Shannon Tweed, if you didn't already know :-)).

  18. Re:Mystifying on How Not to Build a Cellphone · · Score: 1

    I am a photographer and I use SLR's and develop my own film, I like the crappy effect of the camera phone but to each his own I guess.

  19. Never mind a new UI on Adobe to Unclutter Photoshop UI · · Score: 5, Interesting

    Allow photoshop to multitask. I cannot believe that still in 2007, with my Macbook Core 2duo with 3GB of RAM, I cannot edit images while I am using my scanner. Why can't photoshop scan negatives in the background while I work on other images in the foreground?

  20. Re:Probably a requirement on Valve Locking Out Gamers Who Buy Orange Box Internationally · · Score: 1

    You know, the irony is that the 9/11 bombers came and fucked up the US with valid documents, they didn't enter illegally. So I don't understand why they want to fingerprint everybody, especially their allies.

  21. Re:Probably a requirement on Valve Locking Out Gamers Who Buy Orange Box Internationally · · Score: 1

    Yes, I was talking about the fingerprinting, fuck that, I would refuse at the airport, send me back to the UK. That is the reason why I'm not going to the States, instead I'm off to Cuba next year instead! I hope the attitude changes in the US. The EU isn't that bad, just stupid.

    Dude, you ate in Waterloo Station, of course its going to be expensive, don't forget, you're in London, a capital city inside one of their train stations afterall. Also before your friend comes to the US and feels like a Queen, she will feel like a criminal first due to the practices being deployed at your airports. Nothing is fair in this world I guess.

    Isn't Austria already in the EU? Oh wait you said Australia, what a stupid question! Turkey is having a hard time getting membership, what chance do you think you have? You're part of the Commonwealth, get your values and principles from there maybe?

  25. Another application on MIT Team Creates Cancer Stem Cells · · Score: 1

    for this is actually to solve the problem of human death because cancer cells are for all intents and purposes, immune to death since they block the shortening of the telomere with in their own cell structures, I can't remember what it is called but supposedly the science behind this would be to look at applying this ability to ourselves to block the degradation of our own telomeres, thus preventing old age death.
