    Actually, Even Andy kaufman would be ashamed of this. He at least had a couple things he would not do like this.
    • He would not sell out this much. He was reluctant to take the role of Latka in Taxi because it's cheap laughs.
    • He even knew when an act was getting old.
    There was a tremour felt as Andy Kaufman spun in his grave when you wrote that.

  7. Re:Novel's Netware failure is their own fault... on Novell's Race Against Time · · Score: 3, Informative

    Actually, it had very little to offer compared to NT. (Pun Intended) It ran with fewer requirements, and also it was their networking technologies that was the foundation for NT Networking. The Client for MS Windows was based on Netware's client technology.

    Odd how quickly people forget these facts. Best part is, Microsoft technically still owes them royalties on every XP disk sold, but Novell isn't forcing it anymore.

    How the hell can a thing like that get past quality control? It's just unthinkable.

    This is Sony after all. Remember in Japan Nova ranks up there with such brand names as IOGear, and Sylvania. Basically, they're viewed as the cheap alternative. Only in North America is Sony viewed as a great company with quality products, and that's mostly because of years of being told that, and not wanting to see that there are better quality items out there.

    I must be making a mistake or electric automobiles are infeasible to charge quickly.

    While I don't believe you are mistaken. I don't think you realize that the battery doesn't store exactly the power that goes into it. Things can be done to help boost that power as it's going in. Think of how a Computer power supply can produce so much electricity. Also think of a power inverter, you can run a TV, Computer, or more off of some of the high end ones.

    Using your same math above indicates this is impossible.

    this makes no sense

    No it doesn't make sense because you (and me as well) don't know how they can boost the energy output that much. But that doesn't mean it's not possible.

    Some drink at the fountain of knowledge. Others just gargle.

    Maybe you should let some go down your throat. Part of being intelligent is realizing you don't undersand everything. Even Einstien said he saw no point in knowing everything. Just as long as he knew how to look it up.

    It is deffinately not sensitive. I currently work at Best Buy Canada, while looking for a real job. There is a known issue that the button is not lined up perfectly with the pad underneeth.

    I bet if you took apart your PSP and left those 4 buttons off when putting it back together you'd see the sensor pad is off centre of the hole for that one.

    What's weird is listening to the sales staff offer the PSP on their PSP
