  1. Re:Geek Vote? on Would John Kerry Defang the DMCA? · · Score: 5, Insightful

    That does not matter, they should've taken the time to read it, and if they had NOT been afforded the time to read it, voted No.

    Amendment X speaks loud and clear still, Congress can't pull this crap, and it's time we showed them who the hell is boss.
    The People.

  2. No. on Science Television: Does Joe Public Care? · · Score: -1, Redundant

    We've got the History Channel, that's good enough for most people.
    But what could they really show on such a network?

    MacGyver type things? Even then MacGyver used to make bombs all the time; and the Patriot act won't allow that; no sir-e-bob.

    So really what could they teach you to do?

    Least he's trying; I've met some people who would rather expect us Yanks to suddenly know their language; IN AMERICA?!

    Now if I went to Germany, I would be expected to know German; Japan, I would need to know nihohngo.

    Funny thing....The Constitution also says something about the FBI...but nothing about this DOJ thing...

    And then there are these two articles, 9 and 10; something about Congress not getting to do much else then what The Constitution says they can....or something...

    Funny that huh?

    Windows XP runs ...well, more like walks; 2000 I could live with, but 98SE did very well for me (Powerbook 667/DVI).

    As for the G5, I forgot about that, you're going to have to wait for VPC 2005, that'll run on the G5.

  19. Re:How Very Timely on Unofficial Windows98SE Patch · · Score: 1

    Take a good look at a top of the line iMac, or even a good PowerMac G5 (you can even get the PowerMac G4's pretty cheap from apple.com/store it's on the right side, look for the red tag that says SALE!)

    Anyway with Mac OS X you won't have to worry about duel booting, if you want to run Windows 98SE/Linux or whatever else, VPC does a great job.

    Just take a good look at Macs, play around for a bit; if you have a digital video cam, iMovie makes it a load of fun to have (if you don't have one, well then here is the reason to get one)

    The other nice thing is that Apple products tend to last for years (read: 6+ years).
