Well, if the furries actually did manage to win, then the klingons would have no choice to "Kill them where they stand". Otherwise they wouldn't be a true klingon warrior.
surely you kind find a better trekkie in costume pic then that. It's not exatcly a fair fan comparison with theat picture. as for the furries..... that is probably a fair picture.
well it doesn't take much more, I've got a dell PIII-500 laptop that runs youtube vids just fine on W2K and it only has 256 megs of ram. Of course it does take about 5 minutes to boot:), but once it's up it really does run fine. I was actually quite suprised just how much that little thing can do. It can even run dreamweaver 8. About the only thing it really can't do is play semi-modern games. People realy do underestimate what older hardware can do with an age appropriate OS and no bloatware.

No one noticed the guys opening the backs of these terminals in the middle of the store? Sounds like there store security is worse than the network security. I would hate to see how much they write off each year to theft.

I think this brings up the question of "When are pc game manufacturers going to start making linux versions of their games?" used to games came out for the C64, apple, Atari and PC. If a game was to be succesful most them were available on all these platforms (atari less than some). Right now a game can come out on Windows, xbox, PS2/3 and Wii/gamecube, so why not linux? How much more will the linux market have to grow before linux is added to the list?
Who's to say they didn't legally download the music and burn each song onto a CD? The article doesn't state the source of the music, just that they made it and gave it to him.
quite possibly, but it was just ironic that the article made a point of saying that the CPU didn't have the instruction sets to to run x86 programs and specifically mentioned xp/vista, but that was on the monitor.
umm, it has nothing to do with XP being able to run on multiple cores. Go back and RTFA. It said the instruction sets on the chip couldn't run x86 programs. It specifically mentioned XP and Vista.
yeah, i know, i do that a lot of times, but there are times i just sit down and search throught the guide till i find something im interested in; history channel, discovery etc.
I'm never gonna record these shows, but i do watch them from time to time. It's a funny feeling to try to fast forward a show thats live and you try to figure out whats wrong with the remote b4 realizing it's live.
I had no idea that some DVRs wouldn't FF thorough adds. I hope my cable company never "upgrades" to one. It's reached the point that when i actually do watch a show when it airs, I get annoyed that I can't FF through the commercials. The only time i let the comercials run on something I've recorded is when i need to get up for a minute.
the article says that it won't run x86, i.e.: no XP/Vista, but if you look very closly at the picture of the what they showed at the demo, the XP taskbar appears to be at the bottom of the monitor. Hmmm.
BoB will end up owning all of 0.0 eventually anyway as they will have so many super capital ships that it will be pointless to try to fight them. At that point, I'm pretty sure the game will die off as those who don't like living in Empire will just quit.
No, they'll just start a Rebellion and blow up their Death star.
I could be wrong here, but from what I've seen in my short time playing EVE is that the point of the game is the unbridled quest for power. There are no rules on how you do this or even that you do this. If you want to be a pirate, go ahead. There are consequenses(sp), but you know that going in, just like real life. One group made a corp and sold stock. that's not in the rules but they did it and it worked. The only rules that matter in Eve are what someone can do and what someone can't do. While I don't like the idea of players being buddies with the guys that run the programs and possibly getting some help, that's the nature of the game and also the real world. What's the difference between this, and when corporations or special interest groups get laws changed/passed to benefit them by their favorite congressman. This happens all the time in the real world and usually people get away with it, and no one bats an eye. I don't like that but I accept it as part of the way the world works, if i want a powerfull and dominating business, then i better be prepared to deal with that. As there are no lawmakers to buy off in Eve (as far as i know), I just consider this to be a substitute for that. Knowing that Eve potentially has this aspect in it means it just part of the game and it might be to my benefit once i get really powerful to have found some of these guys to be friends with. If I don't, i can still be successful, but i might have a harder time at some point if i cross the wrong person. Once again, this is a lot like real life. Adapt to the realites you discover and go on. Life isn't fair, why should your games always be?

Fromm the ammount of wood they used, I wonder if this one might actually float if it landed in a swamp
sounds like we finally detect the SDF-1's main gun. Nice to know the zentradi are 3 billion light years away, or at least they were. ;)

They'll just send the USO's after you from either the Bermuda or dragon's triangle, whichever you happen to be closer to.

So why can't some people walk and chew gum at the same time?
How is saying that if i had mod points i'd rate the GP as funny offtopic?
You don't actually think they spend $20,000.00 on a hammer, $30,000.00 on a toilet seat do you?
lol, I wish had mod points +1 funny.

I'm not going to use it for FPS or sth :')
I'm sure it could handle Quake II
but will it be able to defend it's cubs (i.e. the troops it picks up)
quite possibly, but it was just ironic that the article made a point of saying that the CPU didn't have the instruction sets to to run x86 programs and specifically mentioned xp/vista, but that was on the monitor.
So they've already made a windows emulator for this new chip that doesn't have the instruction sets to run windows? Didn't see that in the article.
umm, it has nothing to do with XP being able to run on multiple cores. Go back and RTFA. It said the instruction sets on the chip couldn't run x86 programs. It specifically mentioned XP and Vista.

you missed the joke, go watch Princess Bride, then it will make sense.
