  6. Why USB 2.0 on Sony Launches DVD-Burning Appliance · · Score: 4, Informative

    Why is it that they always use USB, sure its fast at its burstable rate of 480 Mbs, but Firewire sure beats it with a sustainable 400Mbs, that and if your hooking up a digital camcorder to your dvd burner wouldn't you want something that was already in the camera, IIRC most camcorders have 4-pin firewire out ports because they are superior for the data transfer...

  7. Re:I know one reason to exclude him. on Libertarian Party Suit Could Mean A 3-Party Debate · · Score: 1

    Back in the 1800's? We still had a more or less 2 party system, however there was a lot of dissatifsaction with the issues they were contending with. There a came a 3rd party that was bringing up the issues that the other 2 were avoiding. This party did get a large percentage of the vote and shifted US Politics. It is a good thing to have a 3rd party because they bring up issues that the other 2 parites would otherwise avoid

  12. GLTron on What's Your Favorite Open Source Game? · · Score: 2, Informative

    One of my personal favorites is GLTron, nothing like 4 guys sitting down to 1 keyboard for a test of reflexes, the earlier versions were faster, but the newer ones have turbo.

  13. Sound on Time to Try a Linux Desktop? · · Score: 1

    The only problem I have ever encountered with Linux after a WHOLE 2 years of using it, is that the sound dosen't work all the time, im using ALSA w/ the dmix plugins, but when I want to see a flash site, it needs ESD or ARTS depending on whether I'm using Konqueror or Firefox. Having a program like ARTS freeze up and block the sound channel is such a PITA i have to use `ps aux` & kill to remove the offending program, and thats just something that I shouldn't have to do.
