  1. Re:You're guessing? on Google Censors Abu Ghraib Images [updated] · · Score: 1

    well, bush is reelected, I already saw bush supporters' article on startribune boasting shamelessly how happy they are in this liberal state to have their voice finally.

    those religious supporters for bush are just true "believers", I got one nearby, who doesnot know much about world news, domestic news, even less for world history, not even for world war II and all those wars after that, never heard of bush's stupid jokes. what ever, he BELIEVES.

    now we have more censorship, will have some more wars during those 4 years, isnt world wonderful?

  2. Re:$265? on Halo 2 Retail Date Broken in Midwest · · Score: -1, Flamebait

    who really wants to play online FPS with consoel any way? the aiming sucks, display resolution sucks, actually halo2 sucks. it makes people feel dizzy and people who played it said it's not as good as halo.

  3. Re:Smart marketing? on DS Pre-Orders Stopped as Sales Soar · · Score: 1

    I dont think ther'es any delay, this is the time nintendo wanted to release NDS long time ago.

  4. Re:HP or Dell? on Toshiba Recalls Notebook RAM · · Score: 1

    it's just generic RAM, I dont think it's a big deal since DIMM or SoDIMM isnot so expensive.

    wrong, they buttons are L(eft) R(ight) A B X Y Start Select

  6. Re:I have an idea on China Closes 1,600 "Internet Bars" · · Score: 1

    it's been done over and over again, you know mostly for what reason?

    it's not the supression of people, it's for SOFTWARE PIRACY.

    all those repulican controlled media usually misleads americans this way.

  7. Re:Stupid. on Microsoft Just Wants a Little Look · · Score: 1

    those freebees are totally useless and meaningless to me, otherwise I would check my dell computer's windows xp home. :D

    if they are not legit, I will ask dell for refund!

  8. Re:Too expensive/not useful on New Apple iPod with Photo Capabilities · · Score: 1

    1) if you are ipod nuts and HAVE to buy it, just buy it, dont assume others will 2) SHUT UP or simply put on all those digital cameras sold all those years having LCD smaller than this iphoto stuff, if you think it's easy 3) SHUT UP, it's just your stupid decision to buy the bulky KODAK and want to put it in pocket at the same time, my dimage xt is way smaller than ipod. 4) I dont know what's wrong with you, NORMAL people dont have to put 20G of their own pictures on the road. in fact, if I want to do that, I would carry dell x50 with large VGA screen to do, so that I dont have to carry the useless ipod, iphoto. 1G is smaller than 20G, but it's smaller than that as well. if you want large stuff, carry mac's file server with you.

  9. Re:Too expensive/not useful on New Apple iPod with Photo Capabilities · · Score: 1

    1. the increase of price is not worth the improvement of "value", since it improves very little 2. you mean the crappy ones ipod fans bought? 3. this is just nonsense 4. 1G SD card is $62 after rebate from amazon, as I said, ipod fans just dont know much about prices

  10. Re:Too expensive/not useful on New Apple iPod with Photo Capabilities · · Score: 1

    why does anybody wants to view photo on this tiny screen of iphoto which has lower resolution than many digital camera's LCD?

  11. Re:A computer for half the price of Windows? on How Cheap Can A PC Be? · · Score: 1

    just FYI, I bought an old IBM pII450 machine with 6G HD, CDROM 64M memory for $10 plus $30 shipping from ebay a while ago, I believe it can run windows 98 all right but I didnot use it though.

  12. Re:A modest proposal on AMD's Personal Internet Communicator · · Score: 1

    a dell deal for x30 is 624M CPU, it runs pocketpc but it has WIFI!, for only $264...

    a doubt the bulky useless stuff will sell much

  13. Re:Too warm? on Warm Offices Boost Productivity · · Score: 1

    I am very productive under that temperature, I posted 3 articles in slashdot, went to kitchen for water 4 times, went to bathroom for 3 times and feel sleepy.

  14. Re:What's MS going to Do? on Software Piracy Due to Expensive Hardware, Says Ballmer · · Score: 1

    my dell machine comes with windows xp home CD, not just a recovery CD. it's been like that for long time. also I got that dell 400sc deal, which is $124 + tax after 100MIR. hardware is already cheap, shouldn't M$ lower their product price to match that?

  15. Re:Geneva Conventions on Bootlegged Music in Russia · · Score: 1

    one thing clearly, US government and Bush complained that iraq showed US prisoners' pictures in the war, then later they show picture of Saddam, who is a prisoner.

    for a country who invaded a few other countries such as panama and iraq, geneva convention is just a tiny little thing.

  16. Re:uhm on First Looks at Athlon 64 4000+ & FX-55 · · Score: 1

    why they choose P4 3.4G EE? I saw some gaming machine company uses p4 3.8G OC to 4.3G(with water cool) as their machine's CPU.

    IMHO, fair and square test should be based on CPU of same price tag(roughly).

  17. Re:Linux is great.. on Sharp Plans To Pull Zaurus From U.S. Market · · Score: 1

    well, you didnot do your research for PDA price, that's why you like xxx.

    last year Dell had a sale, $200 for a P4 400SC server plus a free zire 21.

    this year the 624M x30 with wifi and bluetooth is only $264 after coupons.

  18. Re:But does it support Xvid? on Cheap DivX Solution For Your Entertainment Center · · Score: 1

    no divx solution is really cheaper than a modded xbox. well, there's divx compatible dvd player for around $60 from amazon (philips), but it's not as powerful.

    since xbox even can handle RM media. :D

  19. Re:First Image on Chinese Satellite Crashes Into House · · Score: 1

    well, the fact he mentioned clearly that rest of world have similar pics showing for around a year, before CBS "breaks" that as news for you in USA, period.

  21. Re:Obligatory Quote on If Windows Came to PPC, Would You Switch? · · Score: 1

    totally agree, those who paid extra price for powerPC will never switch, actually "switch" just doesnot make any sense, if you want to use windows, just buy a cheap dell. :D

  22. Re:My eyes are filling with tears for the labels.. on Wal-Mart Squeezing Record Labels to Cut CD Prices · · Score: 1

    actually the walmart and walmart super center back in iowa city, IA are very clean, with clean stuff, their CD selection sucks, but everything else is not bad

    here in a city, where targets are every where, the walmarts here just suck, probably like the ones you have near by.

  23. Re:Easy to do on Moving to the Linux Business Desktop · · Score: 1

    but it's not enough for many many people. IMHO

    also it's not as convenient since more windows applications have more friendly GUI. linux GUI is still behind.

    no matter how many times people claim linux GUI is very very good, most linux people still prefer commandline for their tasks. as far as I know.

    what's "neat" about this "idea"?

    we have tons of "DVD recorders" in market already, they are not DVD burning appliances?
