  1. A few disadvantages to plaz and lcd... on Sony and Sharp Backing LCD TVs Over Plasma? · · Score: 1

    My money's still on DLP.

  2. Were they paying attention? on The Ten Worst Products of the Year · · Score: 1

    How could they have missed the $199 SCO IP-powered NutSmasher package?

  3. Commodore 64 on EA Trying to Buy Ubisoft Shares · · Score: 1

    I liked EA better when they made Racing Construction Set and Music Construction Set. Yeah, OK, they took a while to load on that 1541 floppy drive, but they were a lot less hostile!

  4. Ca$h Flow on Linux To Ring Up $35B By 2008 · · Score: 1

    Free puppies anyone? They're much better than those WinPuppies. You know you want one! Go on, take a puppy, it's free! Zero cost to take the puppy! Everybody else is getting a free puppy, why aren't you getting one?

  5. Surreal! on Interchangeable Data Storage Bricks? · · Score: 1

    I think they should get Frank Gehry working on some new sculptural/architectural designs with this technology, so companies can go back to the good old days of showing off their data center to the world with a huge wall of glass. Aww, screw it, just cover the whole thing with titanium plates. Same effect.

  6. We can fix this on Astronaut: 'Single-Planet Species Don't Last' · · Score: 1

    No worries, mates. We can avert the untimely demise of humanity quite simply: Blast John Young into Outer Space with a one-way ticket to Uranus. Annihilation postponed! Happy retirement, John...

  7. Does this mean ... on "Dream Team" to Create Gigapixel Photo System · · Score: 1

    ... we can finally fit all of Sally Struthers in a single image?

  8. Re:it's the countries sizes stupid on The Japanese/American Tech Deficit · · Score: 1

    I have to agree with you on this one... To roll out 3G in Japan, it cost only a measly $6.14, but in the U.S., it cost over $1.21 gigabucks just because of the size of the countries. They only had to put up 2 towers, where we would have to put up over 37 octillion of them just to cover Rhode Island. (which is really a pretty good deal because that means each tower cost only $0.00000000000000000000000327 [They must be getting those towers from Sam's in RI or something, huh?])

  9. I just hope ... on No Honor Among Malware Purveyors · · Score: 1

    ... this turns out to be one of those "snake eating its tail" sort of things. They'll just litigate themselves out of existence by arguing that the other company doesn't have the right to modify software on the PC, etc., etc., etc. Anyone think it has that potential? I'm too busy at work to argue one way or another at the moment. Maybe the lawyers that "stooped" to that level will be astute enough to let it happen?

  10. Re:Shifting into neutral. on A Car With A Mind Of Its Own · · Score: 1

    Funny, the 745i's run Microsoft's innovative software for some function which I don't know what it is. Requires upgrades for reboot issues, eh? Hmm. Either way, the beemer still has good brakes, and hopefully that's not the system running the MS code...
