  1. Re:Robert Rodriguez, king of overrated on 'Transformers' Live Action Movie from DreamWorks? · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Spy kids movies are a sucess, made with a relative low budget and gaining millons of dollars either at box office and product placement, it's enough to keep the suits in hollywood happy.
    More info here:
    http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0227538/business

    Same thing happened with "El mariachi". A decent, cheap home made film that gained a lot's of money and sometimes it's used as an example of amateur filming in some schools..

  2. I hate Huawei on Chinese Huawei Takes on U.S. Telecom Market · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I live in Argentina and I work for a major ADSL ISP. We used to have Cisco/Alcatel DSLAMs and DSL Modems but budget cuts made us switch to "Huawei". Huawei DSLAMs are an almost exact copy of Cisco's in terms of performance, but cost like 2 or 3 times less, and you can get a bulk of Huawei USB DSL Modems for a few dollars each (And then give it for free to new users). But, of course, there is no Huawei tech support (unless you can talk chinesse or are willing to wait a week for an automated response), you have to compile your own USB driver for the modem unless you want the internet user mess around with VPI, VCI and DSL encapsulation modes, and while this shouldn't concearn any skilled programmer, the result of compiling your own driver for a cheap modem, using limited testing and questionable source code that NEVER updates only brings problems for the end user (incompatibility with some Windows versions, NO linux or MAC support, etc).

  3. Re:That's not a projector. on Cell Phone with Built-in Projector · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    And I want a decent Star Wars prequel! ;)

  4. Re:And the point is? on Web Browsing on Your PSP · · Score: 1

    The PSP will have some kind of TV out feature via an external USB adapter

  5. OK... on Fun With Transparent Screen Backgrounds · · Score: 3, Funny

    I just opened my CRT, removed my monitor screen, tube and back panel.
    It looks dark through... :O

    j/k ;)

  6. Re:Dear god no... on Fantastic Four Teaser Trailer · · Score: 1

    She is hot as hell. I prefer her as Susan than some dumb blonde like I don't know "The ring" slut or Renée Zellweger...

  7. Re:Classic Cartoons on Fantastic Four Teaser Trailer · · Score: 1

    Yeah, It was available in sharereactor a few years ago, but I never downloaded it... :(
    The movie cost 4 millon dollars to be made.
    There is some info in imdb I think

  8. Re:Damn on Deep Impact Blasts Off For Comet Tempel 1 · · Score: 2, Funny

    ...Hopefully filming a decent movie! ;)

  9. Re:Not only that on End Of Support for Windows NT 4.0 · · Score: 2, Interesting

    That's not a bad idea, an unpatched Windows XP it's a time bomb ready to explode. People that format their pc usually just grab their 2001 Windows XP CD, put it in and proceed with the instalation. Once finished, they connect to the internet without patching and 1 minute later their PC it's a spam sending zombie.

  10. Re:Password on Google Exposes Web Surveillance Cams · · Score: 1

    AXIS: username: root passoword: pass

  11. Re:is this legal? on Google Exposes Web Surveillance Cams · · Score: 1

    There is no password or disclaimer to enter the "webcam site". Since it doesn't ask you for a password then I assume it's public, If not you couldn't enter the site by just typing their IP.

  12. Skype on Free Windows Software Without Spyware/Adware · · Score: 1

    Skype it's the best VOIP soft available right now, it's freeware and doesn't have spyware.

    It's been out for a few days...

  16. Re:updating on Windows Users Fear Korgo Virus · · Score: 1

    It depends, some people with pirated copies can download updates or use Windows Update.
    Users using Windows XP release version with a banned s/n can't d/l SP1 and following updates, but users with a pirated "Windows XP with SP1 included" CD can update without problems.

  19. I prefer linksys on Microsoft Backs Out Of Wi-Fi Equipment Market · · Score: 3, Informative

    Microsoft does have some decent hardware like the Intellimouse Explorer but for WIFI I'd stick with Linksys, a division of Cisco Systems, Inc.
