  1. In other news... on Intel Launches DRM-Enabled CPUs for Phones and Handhelds · · Score: 1

    ...Apple launches iRingTones, allowing downloading of ring tones for 99 cents each, with 5 second previews. Linux users immediately complain about lack of OGG ring tones.

  2. Ogg? on Mac OS X Trojan Horse Infects MP3s · · Score: 5, Funny

    This virus sucks unless it has ogg support. Jeez! Mac OS X is so lame..

  3. Orkut? on Microsoft Launches 'Channel 9' Blog · · Score: 1

    This looks a lot like some internal Orkut knockoff. Sad.

  4. All depends on Apple... on What Would The World Be Like Without Microsoft? · · Score: 3, Insightful

    It depends on what Apple would have become. The Apple of yesterday was locked into their own standards. They weren't willing to comply with the industry, or work with others. Apple learned their lesson after Microsoft. Steve Jobs returned and instead of creating new closed standards he embraced open ones. The closed Apple would not have survived. The open Apple would have flourished and created a rich community.

  5. Re:Vanderpool Shmanderpool on Intel 32/64-bit Nocona CPU · · Score: 3, Informative

    Virtual PC is emulation, therefore you take a nice speed hit. Vanderpool is hardware based. It uses the actual hardware on your machine.

  6. Re:Some nature, some circumstance on Losing Interest In Games - A Natural Progression? · · Score: 1

    Maturity; i.e., the realization that There Are Things In Life More Important And Rewarding Than Finding The Faerie Hat So Zelda Can Get Past The Pond Full Of Zombie Sharks.

    Damn, there are?

  7. Windows? on Windows 2000 & Windows NT 4 Source Code Leaks · · Score: 1

    Is that that thing that comes with that Pinball program? Boy... the pinball is sure fun... I don't really need that extra garbage though...

  8. Re:Unprofitable for whom? on Napster Business Model Not Generating Revenue · · Score: 1

    The problem is services like iTunes are made up of multiple record companies. Sure, a record company could buy a service, but they'd lose a lot of the music on the service because it would be owned by other record companies.

  9. Is it just me... on Footage From Star Wars: Episode III · · Score: 3, Funny

    ...or does it look like there is a dual with the Blue Man Group?

  10. Its not a 1984 Mac... on Macintosh 2004 Case Mod · · Score: 1

    Thats a Mac Plus. Those came later. Boy, those screamed past my poor little 512ke (third mac ever made).

  11. Bush misses the point on USA To Return To Moon By 2015, Then Mars · · Score: 1

    The reason this worked for Kennedy in relation to the first moon missions was because we had somebody to compete against, the Soivet Union. The Soviets were on the way to the moon and we had to beat them there. Hes sadly mistaken if he thinks this will win him points in the election. But then again, when hasn't he been mistaken?

  12. Stop Feeding the Troll on No WMA for HP iPod · · Score: 1

    We should all just ignore him. Maybe then he'll go away.
