  1. Don't buy from Ebay! on eBay Scam Victim Strikes Back · · Score: 1

    If you don't want to get swindled, don't buy from Ebay. Online auction sites are full of dishonest people.

  2. Re:Dear The Register, on Backup Tapes: Alive And Kicking · · Score: 1

    Me too. Maybe inexpensive tape drives are low quality. You may have to spend $2000+ to get a reliable tape drive.

  3. Full Cavity Body Searches should be the norm on iPod: Your Portable Corporate Hellraiser · · Score: 1

    The most effective method would be to force all employees to undergo full cavity body searches coming and going. Shoes should be x-rayed. Bags,boxes,briefcases and purses should be checked at the door.

  4. I'll be glad when Anonymous Coward is gone! on Comcast Fires TechTV Staff · · Score: 1

    Anonymous Coward irritates the living crap out of me.

  5. Analysts are often wrong on What Lies Ahead For Linux · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Industry analysts are often wrong. If they were on target all of the time they wouldn't give out advice. They'd instead make a killing on the stock market.

  6. Re:Bye Bye Gameboy... on Sony Delays PSP To 2005 · · Score: 1

    The PSP will succeed. The PSP will enjoy tremendous developer support.

    The N-Gage failed because it was full of design flaws and compromises. Developer support has been ok, not great.

  7. Re:Bad Platforms Make For Good Business on Why Open Source Makes Sense For Handhelds · · Score: 5, Interesting

    I can do what I want only with Palm and Windows. Linux is intriguing, but fails the tests of functionality and compatability.

  8. Re:Did anyone else NOT see this coming? on Linux Headed For Smartphone Domination? · · Score: 1

    Linux won't dominate the smartphone market. Both Microsoft and Symbian will make plenty of deals with carriers and OEMs. Motorola, one of Linux's biggest mobile adherents, is losing $$$ hand over fist. In the cellular industry it's the carriers that hold the keys, not the manufacturers or end users. HandSpring learned this the hard way before they merged with Palmone.

  9. Your post has nothing to do with Nintendo! on Nintendo's Mystery DS Portable Revealed · · Score: 1

    This thread has nothing to do with the Nintendo DS. Stick to the subject at hand!

  10. Re:Nothing more than a cheap gimmick! on Nintendo's Mystery DS Portable Revealed · · Score: 1

    Coward just about sums you up.

  11. Forbes is a conservative hypocritical idiot. on Forbes Sympathizes with Poor, Abused Fax.com · · Score: 1

    By standing along side greedy spammers Forbes displays his contempt for the common person.

  12. Nothing more than a cheap gimmick! on Nintendo's Mystery DS Portable Revealed · · Score: 1

    Dual screens sounds like another cheap gimmick to me. The GBA-Gamecube 'link' was another of Nintendo's 'bright' ideas (NOT). Expect Sony to trounce Nintendo with the PSP.

  13. I like MS, but... on Microsoft Unhappy With HP's iTunes Decision · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I also like my iPod. Microsoft should be grateful HP will work with Apple to add WMA support to the iPod. No major digital music service will offer MP3 or other open source format music for the simple reason they lack digital rights management. To force the industry's hand, people would have to boycott iTunes, Musicmatch, Real Networks, Walmart, etc.

  14. Give guilty retailers no quarter! on Google Blocks 'Optimized' Pages · · Score: 1

    Retailers that use 'tricks' to ensure their sites float to the top of Google deserve to be punished!

  15. Re:Delayed anyways? on Half-Life 2 Delayed Following Code Leak · · Score: 1

    Valve compounds a bad situation by delaying HL2 by 4 long months. I can sympathize a little with their stolen code plight, but have absolutely no sympathy for the crappy 4 month delay. Valve demonstrates their ineptitude again.
