I was one of the people that had a wrist strap break. The remote also went through my 52 inch rear projection tv. My friend was the one that sent the controller flying. We were playing the wii sports baseball homerun derby game. The object of this game is to swing as hard as you can, to get the furthest possible home runs. Personally I think that the wrist straps were extremly poorly designed, and that were were not using the system outside of its normal use. Now I do not expect Nintendo to reimburse me for what some will see as horseplay, but I do imagine that a class action suit will be coming about.
If you have actually held the controller and looked at the straps, it is obvious they were made this way as a cost cutting measure. The one hope I have is that in the future they will do things right the first time.
Why not instead make this only enforceable during wartime? The government would have to pay to access the streams so providers don't lose out, and the guys with mapping projects could still get their lower resolution images.
If your employer wants to be that strict about TOOLS to do you job, they care nothing of you as a person. I would suggest running when they want you to pay for pagers, cell phones, and broadband at home (if its part of your job function).
Next they will expect you to work for free!
Do they still pay the microsoft tax?
I would assume Dell passes the savings of not paying for an OS right into their pocket. Consumers will not see lower prices.
Most research companies that you work for state that anything you discover is the full intellectual property of that corporation when you get hired. I'm sure he was payed well,and was given $10 million severance. Guessing from expirience they probably wanted him to implement DRM and control functions, he said no and they let him go.
I personally bought my PS2 because of compatibility with old ps games. Think of how many parents/purchasers are going to look at the wasted old titles and then see the PlayStation 3 and its 1000+ game library.
As cool as the new Xbox will be, I'll wait for the PS3 as well, and show Microsoft how I vote with my wallet.
The more players you add to a game the less will be accomplished. any team based fps has a sweetspot of 4-10 players per team, and after that the rounds begin to turn into complete chaos.
Why does every organization created with a specific purpose have to have its finger in EVERY single issue. The UN I had hoped would be above corporations and actually stand to make the world a bit more UNified.

My its sad to see all the people switch sides on Google since they finally decided to become public.

So the opinion is that by simply playing a GAME we are more informed than the AVERAGE guy walking the streets about war. God help us all.
You see he went back in time, named it after this Crazy guy named Linus, and now uses it to extort $699 from everyone! I am not crazy, just bored.

those features have been left out of every other version as well!
Where Can I get my English version of this "cut rate" enhancement?
