  1. Re:Bring back old-school arcades/games. on State of the U.S. Arcade Industry 2004 · · Score: 1

    I remember years ago at hte 7-11near my house.. my friends and I would sink literally hundreds of dollars into SF2 fighting each other and the game itself.. beating it with 1 quarter.. with each different character... playing pinball when we were not playing sf2... good times..

    then one weekend, we showed up and the games were gone. The owner, Kevin, said the home office said to pull ALL arcade games from EVERY 7-11.. Naturally, he did it, but was BITTER. He was getting a lot of coin from those machines.. that was the last day I have gone to 7-11..

    I still want to buy a SF2 for my home.. and someday I will... and Samuria Showdown 2.. badass..

    Since mobil has been using the speedpass for YEARS and I have heard/read nothing about the fob's being cloned..

    With mobil... you have to enter in your zip code... while its not the most secure... its better than nothing...

    I've been using my speed pass for over 3 years, and about 3 months ago I got the watch... the speedpass is on my wifes keychain... so if she loses her speedpass.. she will know about it. And I never take my watch off so I'm not worried about losing it..

    No.. not really... how many cd's do you have that was Ffull to the brim with music goodness? average CD length is around 50 minutes.. If you notice, most of the american artists cd's sold in japan usually have bonus tracks that the US doesn't have to fill up more space...

  24. Re:Dang. on Red Hat Linux Support To End · · Score: 1

    It would still be nice to see updates on the website though... To me, nothing has been done. There is no news area, or even updates... I've chend the download page a few times... it doesn;t say when the ISO's were updated.. so I figured that they were the same ones from a few months ago..

    So the mailling list is updated every 3 minutes... think they could update the website, oh once a week? cut and past an email or SOMETHING?
