  1. Apple? Say it ain't so! on Apple iTunes Upsampling Higher Resolution Videos? · · Score: 1

    I, for one, am *shocked*!

  2. Re:dual-proc systems on Intel Core 2 Extreme QX6700 Quad-Core Benchmarks · · Score: 1

    no regular Core 2 Duo (or quad for that matter) is dual-socket capable. You would need the server version (Xeon) to be able to do that. But you do pose an interesting theory.

  3. Re:Quad Core Gaming on Intel Core 2 Extreme QX6700 Quad-Core Benchmarks · · Score: 2, Informative

    FYI, Kentsfield has 64 bit instructions, and therefore is 64 bit capable. Please stop spouting this "AMD is the only pure 64 bit processor" garbage.

  4. Re:Everything is a 'Killer' on Microsoft To Construct iPod/DS/PSP Killer · · Score: 1

    why the heck isn't this modded funny? does nobody realize it's a monty python quote? how incredibly pathetic.

  5. Re:But it's going to have an Intel CPU on NVIDIA and Dell Display Quad-SLI System · · Score: 1

    with that much GPU power, the CPU becomes a non-issue. Seriously, once you get to like 1600x1200 and higher, or even 1280x1024, it's all about your video card(s), and framerates are no longer determined by your CPU, as long as you have a reasonably high end cpu (which this system will no doubt have).

  6. Re:open on Linksys Adds Linux WRT54G Model Back · · Score: 1

    You must be new here. *ducks*

  7. how could the most anticipated title on No Halo 3 For 360 Launch · · Score: 1

    be a surprise??

  8. yes, but... on Intel Readying Dual-Core Desktop Chip · · Score: 1

    will it be 64 bit?

  9. consider the source? on Morpheus is Dead · · Score: 1

    It's coming from MTV, therefore it *must* be true.

  10. Re:grumble on Tinfoil Hat House · · Score: 1

    actually it's spelled "Sacramento".

  11. Re:Are they for real? on Congress Ponders Opening up iTunes DRM · · Score: 1

    and this is why all the mp3 player manufacturers are going out of their way to offer hardware support for AAC? can you name even ONE??

  12. Re:Well.. on Console Players Are Pirates · · Score: 1

    Microsoft takes a loss on every console sold, so even if he wasn't supporting the software companies, Microsoft still lost money.

  13. Once again... on Mario and Link Get Their Stars On the Walk of Game · · Score: 2, Funny

    Once again, Luigi gets the shaft.

  14. that's not what the real problem is! on Sony Admits to PSP Button Flaws · · Score: 1

    the real problem is that the button is positioned too close to the screen, and therefore can not be pushed squarely down! also, what about the problem with when you are playing and the disk randomly ejects and goes flying across the room? Sony seems a little silent on this one, unless it is an unsubstantiated internet rumor like most of this stuff usually is.

  15. ehh on NASA Says 2005 Could Be Warmest Year Recorded · · Score: 1

    Why is this not under politics.slashdot.org

  16. aw shit on Are Nanotube Monitors In Your Future? · · Score: 2, Funny

    and I just bought a brand new Dell UltraSharp 2001FP 20 inch LCD monitor about 20 minutes ago... http://accessories.us.dell.com/sna/productdetail.a spx?sku=320-1578&c=us&l=en&cs=19&category_id=2999& page=external

  17. Cognitive Enhancement? on Cognitive Enhancement Drugs · · Score: 1

    My uncle was taking some 'cognitive enhancement' medication http://www.iherb.com/cogni.html, Cogniflex, recommended by his girlfriend. He stopped taking it because, well, he forgot to take it.

  18. Why couldn't we... on Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children Preview · · Score: 1

    ...just keep Jen Taylor as Cortana?

  19. Re:prince of persia on Mac Gaming History Remembered · · Score: 1

    prince of persia was better on the mac!!!

  20. internet streaming radio on Apple Rolls Out AirPort Express, AirTunes · · Score: 1

    I can't wait for that di.fm trance internet radio station on iTunes to come blaring out my 5.1 Yamaha system!

  21. You forgot one fact. on Successful PearPC/Mac OS X Install Documented · · Score: 2

    Even if it's current, it's still a PC. You still have to deal with all the hassles of running Windows.

  22. my shoes... on A Running Shoe For Agent 86? · · Score: 2, Funny

    run faster than yours. but they have a heatsink.

  23. Re:Some of the classics on Classic GBA Game Ports We'll Never See? · · Score: 1

    Where the hell is the US version of Mother 1+2 (Earthbound "Zero" and Earthbound for you non-fanatics) for GBA?? There's demand for it like anything, and Japan's already got it, so what's the problem?? Also, a port of Chrono Trigger would be awesome.

  24. Re:I would do the same on Apple's iPod Chip Supports WMA? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    well said. with the worst DRM ever implemented in a downloadable audio file, I just don't see any advantages to WMA, including sound quality. AAC sounds SOO much better because Dolby Labs actually know what they're doing.

  25. Poor Apple... on Eminem Sues Apple for Sampling his Samples · · Score: 1

    Damn, and they just finished paying off all their debts too...
