Exactly. If the tuner is the size of a lego block, it should, ( and probably will) be incorporated into a PDA, (or better, cell phone).
That would make the most sense.
You're exactly right. In fact, I don't even think you'd need to go to analog, I'm pretty sure that I could download, via firewire, a CD to tape on my digital camcorder. From the camcorder, I could probably make unlimited copies. Camcorders, the other tape backup.
So what if the ushers catch them. What happens then? Do they just kick them out of the theater? They'll just show up for the next show. What should happen is that police are notified and 10 of them swarm in, yank the guy out of his seat, and then make sure that the first ones caught get 3-4 years in jail. After a while, the others will get the message. And it's cheaper than issuing night vision glasses to every movie house.
You're exactly right. That's what will keep their printer business from growing in the long run. I need to be able to buy supplies when I need them, without the expense and wait for them to be delivered. On the other hand, the only time I run out of ink is 10:00 at night when the kid is doing homework. You always need a spare on hand.
Why haven't they made an OS to compete with Microsoft. Oh, yeah, they're building PC's to someone elses standard.....and there was that UNIX thing......
Or maybe, things wrong in South Korea. The claim is they're making 6 figure salaries, yet, 8 of them live in a 2 bedroom apt. They can't afford a van. All of this guys clothes fit in a bag. Geez, what's the cost of living there? And no girls? Everything done by young males is done to impress women. If he can't have a relationship, he's just wasting his time. I just don't get it!
Now my 17 year old son and his friends won't have to waste their time actually searching for these sites. Email will readily mark it as such for them. I think it just goes to show we're making things too easy on kids today. He should have to shoplift Playboy just like I did.
It seems that advertising will soon be everywhere

Is the 3rd world. While these countries are poor now, their economies will be openning up. If they have adopted a standard of open source, they will have no reason to change. Certainly not at Microsoft's prices. The point will come where, if the US wants to do business, we will be forced to adopt their standards. Good thing we already have Linux here.
This is true of most technology

I really doesn't matter if it's a cell phone or not. People will go out and drop $1000 on a video camera, but won't spend $15 on a book about how to properly film a subject. People will spend $1000 or more on a PC, but again, won't drop $15 on a book about how to use it. I don't think that it matters if it's a table saw or a gun, most folks won't spend the tiome to learn how to use it correctly.
If it's a port, the Microsoft legal machine will jump into action. On the other hand, if it's not a port, the Microsoft legal machine will jump into action. I think it's doomed.
I upgraded all the computers in my company to new Dell PC's 6 months ago. Virtually all of the software and hardware problems I used to have are gone. Now, 30-40 percent of problem calls I get are related to spyware. Is there someone I can send a bill to?
Isn't this just like paying protection to the mob? It's worthy of Tony Soprano. "Having a problem with spam? I can take care of dat for youse. My boys will be around once a month to collect". Call it what you will, it still seems to be extortion and a clear violation of racketeering laws.
We need anti-anti-bacterial soap. Apparently, the stuff we're using now just ain't cutting it! OR, maybe a bacterial soap, one that will introduce friendly bacteria to battle the stuff waiting for us in the shower.
Does this mean I've been wasting my money on all that anti-bacterial soap? I thought that was the reason we were buying that crap! I suppose it's time pull out the washtub and whip up a batch of good old lye soap. It can't be any worse that what I'm using now.
I can't tell if this is just a problem of the rich and clueless, or if Bill really doesn't think that he has to abide by the rules that everyone else does.
All fine points, but if the demand is there for the game, why not port the game? I love Rogue. I played it 20 years ago on a Unix box. Since then, I have played it on a Mac, an Amiga, a PC, and most recently, on my PalmPilot. As my hardware platform changed, the game was ported to adapt to the hardware, Why? Because folks like the game. If the SNES games are that desireable, port them, and the users will come. Or not.

Boy! What a limited imagination that guy has. I'm expecting a holo deck by then!
When the number of visitors reaches a high enough level, a new theme park will be deemed viable. It happens everywhere.
Has anyone been keeping track of the sensors the aliens have to track us? I think that's the real story.
Hauling 30,000,000 lines of code around will wear anyone out!

It just doesn't matter. It still going to be written on a yellow sticky and stuck on the screen.

What games can I run on it? If I can't have unproductive time at work and home, I don't need it.
These are the best reviews money can buy.

I now have the opportunity to wear braces again. Another step forward for science AND fashion!
