  1. I don't get it... on If Mac OS X Came to x86, Would You Switch? · · Score: 1

    I see all these utils and sites to make Windows XP act like Mac OS X. I see people whining all the time about how OS X for x86 would be so cool. If you want Mac OS X, get the real thing, get a Mac. As for the *but but but macs are too expensive* rant I think that if you get a PC with decent quality parts, it's not that much cheaper (add in the cost of a LEGAL Windows license...). Sure Macs are more expensive but they're not like twice the price when you start adding similar features to a PC.

    Anyways i see it like for cars, some luxury cars are more expensive and won't go as fast as other cheaper sport models but they are way more comfortable. Mac = comfort, i don't care about my cpu being faster than anyone else and i don't need to have a dual 2.5ghz G5 for what i do (music, coding, some gaming and some gfx/3d/video besides net surfing and stuff...)

  2. The 2800 really existed on Atari To Release Old Games and New Console System · · Score: 5, Informative

    The Atari 2800 existed, in Japan, looked like the 7800
    You can find info about it on the net, i found some on http://www.atarihq.com/museum/2678/2800.html
    They also say it was sold in the USA by Sears...

  3. Aruze is evil on Aruze Develops Linux-Based Arcade Machine System · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Aruze nearly killed SNK. They didn't respect the license contracts. Think they also got sued by the Japanese government for tax fraud. I know they got sued by SNK/Playmore.

    And some rumors of ties with the Yakuza have been around for a while...

    I'm wondering if they'll do things correctly with this Linux project and i can't say i'm too excited by Taito's WinXP platform.

  4. riaa site down ? on RIAA Plans Cyberwar Effort · · Score: 1

    Maybe the isps around here have a stupidity filter but i haven't been able to check their site for at least 24 hours from various places. Then again i can still go to plenty of other lame sites :P

    riaa site = b0rken ?

    or maybe someone got pissed off at them for getting 4 students to pay back a total of 60k$ 'cause they set up a network search for their university network...
