    From TFA: The slick new calendar app is a welcome addition to the bundled Windows programs.

    So how is this different than outlook? The screeny to me looks like outlook+eyecandy...maybe its just me.

  5. Re:This is great... on Interview with Microsoft Exec on IE7 and RSS · · Score: 1

    Hey, what happened? You don't look very happy.
    Fools. Bureaucratic fools.
    What'd they say?
    They don't know what they've got there.
    Well, I know what I've got here. Come on. I'll buy you a drink. You know, a drink?

    Microsoft has released an update for Microsoft Access 2002. This update removes the functionality in Access 2002 that lets users add new data to or edit existing data in a linked Microsoft Excel worksheet.

    Well yea (if they have opted to reveal their information).

  10. Is it TRUELY? on Flexible Electronic Paper · · Score: 2, Funny

    The new display which has a 100DPI resolution and is only 300 microns thick has the potential of truely changing the way we read our information.

    Too bad it isn't truly changing the way we spell check our articles.

  11. Oh no! on FBI Raids Home of Spam King Alan Ralsky · · Score: 5, Funny

    NOW who will fill my inbox?!

  12. Shouldn't we just on Deciphering the Brain's Love Map · · Score: 2, Informative

    Scrap the whole "article" thing and just make this an ad for the online dating service market called Chemistry.com?

  13. Re:Am I missing something? on Linux Instant Messengers · · Score: 1

    From TFA:
    There is Gaim, there is Kopete. Are they attractive? No, they aren't. Their interfaces are terrible. Moreover, all you can do with them is write basic IMs. Bye bye overbloated and stupid nudge and Flash sequences. Just the text ma'am. Display picture? Well, it sort of works, but that's all. File transfers? I can swear that you're a lucky guy (girl) when it works. Usually it doesn't, resulting in embarrassing 'Sorry mate, I'm using Linux, you know and, well, could you mail me this picture instead?'.

    Personally I have no problem with Gaim's interface, and I enjoy the lack of ads etc. As for extra features I find both Aim and Gaim have issues with firewalls, but wait I thought this was about messaging, not sending files.

    I say use the right tool for the job, get an ftp client.

  14. Re:Still Waiting on 200gb Hack for iPod Nano · · Score: 2, Funny

    Because its a good idea to store all of your (song) data in ONE PLACE, because it will NEVER FAIL.

  15. Portability? on 200gb Hack for iPod Nano · · Score: 2, Funny

    Its a shame you lose some portability needing to power the drive and all, I would have liked to see a nice car battery attatched supplying the DC 12v.

  16. Coral cache on 200gb Hack for iPod Nano · · Score: 4, Informative
  17. I say... on Flock, the New Browser on the Block · · Score: 2, Funny

    Welcome our inept quotation mark using overlords... Seriously, preview button""

  20. Forensics? 8 people? Weh? on Eight Charged in Episode III Early Release · · Score: 1

    Don't most advance screenings have audiences larger than 8 people? If so how was the list narrowed down to the guilty parties? Forensics != social engineering. I can imagine situation where there were some edits done before the can copy in which such a pre-release would have a small audience, but this was leaked the day before the debut...

  21. Decline of desktop IN the workplace? on The Decline Of The Desktop · · Score: 4, Funny

    The mighty desktop has been humbled by user demand for the one thing it can't deliver -- mobility.

    Persoanlly I don't move around my 5 square foot cube enough to necessitate a laptop, maybe when I'm OUT of the workplace...
