  1. Vista "look and feel" for OSX on MS Vista Look and Feel To Go Cross-Platform · · Score: 1

    Why would I want to make my OSX 10.5 look and feel like OSX 10.4?

  2. Down and out. on A Mac Mini-lennium Falcon · · Score: 1

    Has anyone done a study on how long it takes a site to be /.ed once it makes the front page? Another thought: In the WAT (War Against Terror) just put the terrorist web sites on the /. front page every couple of days and watch them go down.

  3. When... on 9 Weeks to Pump Out New Orleans? · · Score: 1

    is the mandatory fly in by George W. (in flight suit) to declare is concern for New Orleans and all of the southeast coast? Perhaps there will be some sound bite opportunities to push his Social Security plan and the war in Iraq.

  4. Re:Uhhh... on Windows Vista & IE7 Beta 1 Released · · Score: 1

    This just in: Ski packages now available in Hell. Yes ski fans now you can enjoy the deep powder runs down the extinct Hell Mouth Volcano. Breath taking views of The Plane of Sorrows... The press release goes on effusively.

  5. Better than WV (could be confused with a state)... on Windows Vista Faces Lawsuits · · Score: 1

    Windows Viper has a nice ring to it. Borrowing the implication of speed from the automotive world. The suggestion of power from the military world. And to top it off the windows are clean.

  6. Re:Uhhhh on Apple Making a Spreadsheet? · · Score: 2, Informative

    How soon they forget! Visicalc by Dan Bricklin and Bob Frankston 1979. First spreadsheet program for personal computers on the Apple II. Not invented by M$ (either one -- Viscalc and the Apple II).

  7. Re:Cool! on PC Case Made Completely of Fans · · Score: 4, Funny

    Unless you get the polarity wrong on those puppies -- then it would really suck.

  8. In other news... on Cringley Thinks Apple & Intel Are Merging · · Score: 2, Funny

    Bill Gates announced today that Longhorn was in fact smoke and mirrors and that M$ has purchased world wide rights to Linux for an as yet undisclosed amount. Effective immediately it becomes the default opsys of M$. No transition was felt necessary since no one was developing anything worthwhile for Windows anyway. The subscription price for M$L will be $200/year with a substantial educational discount of 5% offered to grades K-6. On a side note given recent events it should be noted that Hell is now offering excellent year around ski packages.

  9. IBM opens Cell. Hopes Apple will byte? on IBM Plans to Open the Cell Processor · · Score: 1

    Hmmm... perhaps this and the ever recurring "Apple is going Intel" are related. Probably just my natural paranoia.

  10. Just too unreal! on Warriors Of Freedom Prompted Rampage Attempt? · · Score: 1

    Oh my! I've used the name of a game that can be played on line and in which the object of the game is to find the biggest gun with which to blast your opponents. I must be an incipient mass murderer. Oh oh! I've used the phrase "mass murderer" that must be what I am. Good grief! I've used "I" seven times. I must be egotistical.
