  6. Mozilla and Opera will gain... on Microsoft Wins Browser War, Abandons 'Innovation' · · Score: 1

    well crap of course ie's winning... i didn't even know Mozilla and Opera were available (and free) for WinX platforms until recently. The problem isn't microsoft it's not enough folks getting the word out to everyone that you don't have to accept ie.

    currently rocking mozilla, just because. building a red hat box in the next few weeks to begin my transfer to the dark side.

  10. Internet Took Over on Is the Internet Your Source of Knowledge? · · Score: 1

    I used to read the local paper in the morning. i'd read a national paper at work. i'd watch local news at home in the evening. i'd maybe browse one or two of my wife's magazine on the weekend. i myself had a few magazine subscriptions.

    all of this has changed because of the internet. i don't watch much tv, hardly any news. I don't have any subscriptions to newspapers or magazines anymore. I don't even buy a morning paper on the way to work. the internet has become, for the most part, my one stop shop for news, reviews, and entertainment. and i haven't been to a library for quite some time.

  13. Re:They have to pay for the shows somehow on Group Asks Gov't to Crack Down on Product Placement · · Score: 0

    Hey, fellow TiVo fan! Yeah, i've had mine for a year now. I rarely watch a show during it's scheduled slot. At the same time, I think there is a relatively small number of folks using 'em when compaired the the masses of non-TiVo believers. I hardly think they're even showing up on the network radars yet.

    here here.

    i'd prefer to see my favorite star drinking a can of Coca-Cola than a can of Cohe anyday.

    I think it was the Roseanne show that spoofed more name brands than any other without it being an intentional parody. I remember sodas, snacks, laundry detergents, regular household items that looked just like the name brand, save a letter or two different.

    They could conceivably switch to Windows.

    They actually run Windows CE.
    You would never make that statement again.
    CE running network hardware is about the biggest mistake made thus far in home networking.
