    Of course they don't. Years of iron defecation have reduced their feet to tiny hip bones

  5. Re:-1 False Assumption on Red-Light Camera Ticket Revenue and Short Yellows · · Score: 1

    I don't normally reply to Anonymous Cowards, but as someone who has lived in Michigan for the past seven years, I'd have to agree. I am totally convinced this is because of the ridiculous "no fault" insurance laws.

    Didn't Dr, Seuss figure this out? One fish two fish, red fish blue fish...

    I have more than a few of these babies laying around. And the best thing is that Circuit City seems to have them on sale every other week. They are rugged (I actually keep mine on a key ring...in my pocket all day) and super easy to use (no drivers with anything newer than win98.

    Really? That's cool. Guess I'll try it on my sanyo 5500. Thanks for the info.

  13. Re:good idea? on Television On Your Cell Phone · · Score: 1

    While I agree it does drain the battery, it seems that the "streaming TV" is actually clips that are updated every hour or so. So, while this isn't live, it is a huge leap from the 2 fps to about 15 fps. that everyone else can watch. And right now there's only one phone that can take advantage of it. I agree that mobile internet is much more usefull this is a pretty cool advancement.

  14. Re:Foot, meet bullet on Next-Gen Xbox To Lack Backwards Compatibility? · · Score: 1

    I Chose the Xbox over PS2 because of the simple fact that it was a superior machine. That's the same reason that I chose to upgrade to SNES over the NES. I never once thought about backwards compatibility. If I wanted to play Excite Bike I just plugged in my NES. If I wanted to play M*A*S*H I pulled out the 2600 from beneath the couch. I admit it would be nice to play Pandora Tomorrow on Xbox 2, but when I get nostalgic I'll do what I do when I want to play Oregon Trail; bust out the emulator!
