Actually no. There is no point. Any idiot can see what they are saying. There is still no point and no reason for it to be posted here. Newspapers are losing money. WOW! News at 11!!
We need someone to go after these people with the intensity that the RIAA goes after 13 year old girls who don't want to pay for Hoobastank songs. If only the hackers would start going after people like the RIAA instead of trying to screw the everyday person out of their information so they can buy more mods for their Xbox. Then we could air it on MTV as Celebrity Geek Match!
Star Trek is about technology and the future. Minus Voyager because it was utter crap, the reason the TNG series were so popular was because it was set in the future past the time of TOS and showed new technology and new effects amd that, along with great story telling on TNG and DS9 is what made it popular.
Trek fans are also mostly TECH fans, and having to dummy down technology for these prequels is what is killing trek. No one wants prequels. No one wants the technology dummed down. This isn't Star Wars. Star Trek is about technology. The instant that Paramount realizes that Prequels will just not work the sooner they will get their core audience back.
If they need to move 75 years past TNG, then so be it. But it must be done.
Here was an idea I had for a new series before they through Enterprise on us. And don't get me wrong I am an Enterprise fan, and a fan of Bakula. But I am a bigger fan of Star Trek Boldly going where no man has gone before, not going back where he already has been.
"Star Trek: Revolution. Set 75 Years after TNG. The crew of the USS Enterprise 1701-G are a newly assembled group of fresh recruits lead by veteran Captain Frank Talun. Talun chose to lead the Enterprise crew when no one in Starfleet would take on the huge task. Starfleet has crumbled at the hands of the Dominion and The Borg. What once was the strongest combined strength in all the galaxy is now forced to hide on remote planets. But with a newly designed ship that has taken them 25 years to complete there may be a chance.. The Enterprise G and her crew are Starfleets last hope to rebuild."
Paramount, feel free to steal this idea and make me happy.;)
Just choose one of these. Just one alone keeps people from buying these things.
1. The components they put into the consoles never work as well as a stand alone versions.(See: DVD Playback in PS2)
2. People balk at paying $400-$500 for something all at once. They are more comfortable paying $150 for a console one month, buying a DVD player for $100 the next, and a DVR for $150 the following month.
3. People like to have THE BEST. The best console, the best DVD player, the best DVR. A Converged Console isn't going to be the best at anything other than saving space.
4. People like to have their gadgets seperate because it looks "cooler". Lights. So. Pretty.

The people you are trying to fool? Or the fools who think April Fools jokes on the internet are funny and keep writing these dumb stories?

Make Mac users create their own net and then they can call it the iNternet? Then we can still have the Internet to ourselves.
