Palm is the new Amiga. They both had great devices that were ahead or the best of their era, but then decided to sit on their butts and stop innovating.
They could still agree on an API or something, not the actual code. It would mean that ATI, intel and nVidia could make "PhysyX" compatible hardware/drivers, but maybe nVidia would have the fastest implementation.
Microsoft still has three out of ten people running an old version of its browser more than 18 months after Internet Explorer 7 launched, while Firefox has converted more than half of its users to the latest version in just over a week.
"The previous version of Firefox was so bad that half their users have already upgraded to Firefox 3. Our Internet Explorer browser is so good that people keep using version 6 more than 18 months after version 7 has been available." - PHB
Calling car 42, calling car 42... be on the lookout for a red convertible doing 20 over the limit... license plate bird-water-dancing guy seen sideways-egg-pyramid-eye.

That's what happened.
Bajoran-One (ST:DS9 reference).
I guess you never played FF XI then. It can be played exclusively with the keyboard (on all systems).
Then explain to me why we can use a keyboard with Opera on the Wii and how we can use a keyboard while playing FF XI on both the Xbox 360 and the PS2.
As for your multiplayer game comment, I said supported not mandatory.
Is someone still uploading the content to the web server or something? Most pages are empty (the pages are there, but no content)...
I want to know what are the Mac requirements.
All three next-generation consoles have USB ports, so just make it "requires keyboard and mouse".
I wish all console games supported it too, first-person shooters with a stupid gamepad and crappy analog sticks doesn't cut it.
Well, since I'm on Mac, it means intel for me.
Now all I need is an actual game that would use it. Starcraft II comes to mind.

Great, so here's yet another technology that will get split into many different versions by different companies...
Why can't these guys sit together and discuss things to come up with, say OpenPhysX? (think OpenGL)
I feel sorry for Coca-cola, they'll have to make new ads instead of using the same ads they've been using for the last decade.

Wow, bravo.
Isn't "gg" supposed to mean "good game"?

And whatever font you use, some domain names are not safe either.
P.S.: the website is SFW, the domain name is the joke itself. Try not to LOL too much.
Imagine the added confusion if you're with someone from Europe, who keeps wondering WTH you keep mentioning their TV signal standard.
Forgive me for asking, but even simple webcams are now 0.3 megapixels... so why are these artificial retinas so low on the pixel count?
I'm sure that's just going to be a robot in disguise.
But then won't we be stuck with the robotic mongooses?
I mean, if I was a company, running around and distributing font files and declaring myself the Linux Liberation Font, they'd put me away!
Trojan asks users for password, intelligent users are safe, news at 11.
Safari also has rounded corners (-webkit-border-radius).
The guys from Triton already did it, in real-time. /ducks
I'm not sure if you made the joke based on the UI/window itself, but Opera 9.5 still lacks border-radius support.
I know it's still a draft spec, but would it kill them to do it the standard way until then, i.e. "-opera-border-radius"?
