There are all sorts of rumors flying. Will it have a hard drive? How many chips? Two? Three? Will it use Cell technology? MS is buying and forming alliances with emulator companies, different chip manufacturers, that flash memory company. Let's face it, MS hasn't said anything. These are all rumors. I'd bet that all these rumors are just a way to throw the competition off what your real console is. Just like Sony claims their system is a supercomputer or Saddam bought all of them in Iraq to guide missiles. MS is hiding their console design while scaring their competitors and keeping Xbox2 in the minds of the public.
"HyShot was fitted inside the nose cone of a two-stage rocket, which boosted it to an altitude of 300 kilometres. The rocket then plummeted back to Earth, reaching a speed of Mach 7.6.
Data data from the flight, which has now been fully analysed, shows the engine fired successfully before it and the rocket smashed into the ground, about 400 kilometres west of Woomera in South Australia."
Great, a supersonic lawn dart. Not to belittle their efforts, but it's different smashing shit into the earth using a scramjet than it is to actually power an aerospace vehicle with one.
Ununpentium was the supposed element that powered alien spaceships as stated by Bob Lazar. After many years and a website (boblazar.com) they admitted that this whole thing was an attempt to promote a movie idea. Too bad the main character, Lazar, looks like friggin' Keith Richards after a badger attack. Tom Cruise gets paid the big bucks for something guys, and it's sure not his acting.
Japan was going to drop bombs of fleas infected with the plaque on San Diego. The only reason they didn't is because the US dropped the nukes on them a few weeks before they were going to attack.
What rights? I just had my songs sold for muzak because I didn't opt out. Let's go further, forget rights, how about a little decency and ask? You'd think, since the artsists made that site what it is, they'd actually give us a little respect. I guess not when you get lots of money for screwing some person you'll never see.
The only crashes I've had have been during Morrowind. I can't say whether this is Xbox or software since Bethesda won't recognize it. Or at least the didn't last time I checked. It's a widespread problem though. As far as other crashes, I don't know. One cause seems to be heat issues.
I haven't played Morrowind GotY to much yet so I don't know if it's a problem in that edition or not.
I can verify this. You see that rock there in the foreground? Not that big one, but the one to its left. You see it? Yeah, I've seen it before too. On Earth! Dun, dun, duh. . . And the dirt looks awfully familiar too.
Then the title is perfect. Postal 2 is a senseless tragedy itself. We should all refuse to play this game since that will save us the five minutes it would take to realize we should have refused to play this game five minutes ago.
ESA: What, we put a 5 watt transmitter in there? What happened to the 1.21 gigawatt transmitter? A Delorean? Flux Capacitor? 88 miles per hour? Well, Ok, then.
Screw Mars, when can I hit the ancient Roman vomitorium?
Speaking of storage advances, does anyone know what happened to the holographic storage technology that IBM talked about years ago? Is this still a viable technology or is it just another, "Well, it was a good idea, we guess."
I love how the anti-war people here just know that there are no WMD in Iraq anywhere. They also know that there were no terrorists planning attacks on America in Iraq at all. It amazes me how Iraq can be so squeaky clean. They should have invaded us.
The point is, we can't say Iraq didn't pose an imminent threat nor can we say they have no WMD. All we can say is that we have not found proof yet for either WMD or plans for attacks on America. However, I am sure that our action has disrupted some plans of violence against America or its allies. The problem is, how will we know that we have stopped such an attack? I'm sure every aggressive terror cell that our actions foiled will leave us a note that says, "Curses!"
The truth is this. The Iraqis were trying to pull down the statue and they asked the US servicemen to help. The person who told my crew this (six people so it wasn't a publicity stunt) is very trustworthy.
I won't even go into the videos of interrogation techniques used by the regime.
Make it a cartoon and it can premier on Cartoon Netowrk right after the "Young Scooby Doo Chronicles" or whatever it's called. Just a note to Jackson, but he should have Gandalf call Saruman "Red Herring" every chance he gets.
Kind of like the original idea for "Apocalypse Now." There was supposed to be a big battle with lots of explosions and the desctruction of Colonel Kurtzs' compound. This would have been against the book, "Heart of Darkness" on which it is based. I won't hide it, HoD is my favorite book (or novella if you prefer) but this ending in AN would have made me hate Apocalypse Now. FWIW, I feel that PJ has made a better translation of LotR than Coppola did HoD. Granted, I'm a lot more strict when it comes to HoD than Lord of the Rings.

I agree. That letter reminded me of a Kids in the Hall sketch.
A Stunning command of the English language.

You forgot the B A Start.
That's if you were in the army. If you were in the Navy you'd just have to paint it every 10 days.
Cool thing to do in a jet. Take a napkin and clean your window. You won't feel any heat, but you will feel something else.

B'agel? Quest for knowledge or just a strawberry cream cheese spread?
Or maybe it's waiting for someone to hit the "any" key.

Oh, sorry.
Depends, how long is the warranty?

Nevermind. Mozilla was giving me a server not found, but now it works. Guess I just had to click on the link 15 times. Or maybe it's just me.
