  2. Re:Classic AOL accounting on AOL's $299 PC · · Score: 1

    It's ridiculous that AOL costs money and still has ad revenue. For other services, you pay for an ad-free version. Here, you pay to see ads.

  3. Re: Applies also to MS on AOL's $299 PC · · Score: 1

    To everyone that believes that Microsoft pays $25 for every copy of Windows XP that they ship... Uh no - it is actually somewhere in the 15 cents range (plus they get the benefit of having a monopoly and including advertising such as Internet Explorer). And that's what it's worth.

  4. Re:Misleading math... on AOL's $299 PC · · Score: 1

    Of course there isn't any value to having AOL dial-up access. They'd have to pay me for me to waste time using that.

  5. ITRON4 on Credit Card Sized Concept PDA from Citizen · · Score: 1

    What's ITRON 4? Haven't heard it before.

  6. The nameless concept on Credit Card Sized Concept PDA from Citizen · · Score: 2, Funny

    I hope they don't give it a name. I really like the sound of "Nameless Concept". "The nameless concept will be priced at $200 at an undetermined release date." What's that dude's phone number? When's that appointment? Let me check my Nameless Concept...

  7. Re:Temperature on AMD Optimal BIOS settings + Overclocking Guide · · Score: 1

    Temperature ratings are never accurate in any case. Precise, maybe, but not accurate. It varies greatly from computer-to-computer what a "safe" temperature is.

  8. Script kiddies on Scamming Spammer Hooks the Wrong Person · · Score: 0, Troll

    A bit surprising that a 55-year-old woman knows how to use a computer.

  9. Re:No such thing as currency strength on Bureau of Engraving and Printing Issues New US$20 · · Score: 1

    Hmm, but gallons and quarts are definite measurements. Dollars and Euros don't measure physical things like that. Why do exchange rates vary? There must be countries and wealth backing up the currency. One type of currency, which I guess would be considered weak, could become worthless if the country backing it died off...

  10. Re:I kind of like SiteFinder on McLaughlin Defends Site Finder As 'Innovation' · · Score: 2, Insightful

    It sends you to sites of VeriSign's choosing. Say they wanted companies to pay them for it. They could kill small companies and damage competition, which is very bad news for consumers and the economy.
