    72.5 mil is actually quite exceptional considering that most of the attendees went to see the movie without a date!

    ..that a worm likes to go in an Apple. That support forum is just restating the obvious.

    I totally remeber that. They were also going to select Bob Marley's "We Be Jammin'" as their official theme song. Too bad that never happened.

    Well, that's the thing with a socialized society. You'd pay a little more, but in return, you'd have the satisfaction of helping your neighboor who wasn't able to pay for health insurance. Higher taxes, equal acces for everyone.

  10. Re:Microsoft Copying Apple again on Bill Gates Brags About Vista, Reacts to Apple's Latest Ads · · Score: 0

    I can see that MS is copying Apple again ... this time they're stealing Steve Jobs's reality warping field and trying to adapt it for Bill Gates.

  13. Re:SNL skit on Moore's Law For Razor Blades? · · Score: 0

    I really think it was the Mach 30, with 30 blades. Each blade shaved you a bit closer. They even had a little animation showing each blade pass. The last blades took tiny slices of skin out of your face. Soooooooo funny. Can't find any SNL reference though, but I still found this==> http://massdestraction.com/Photo-5584-Gillette_mac h_30.html.

  14. Re:Cliche on Weird Al Premiere Cancelled Due to Net Leak · · Score: 0

    Being gay and/or black is not someone's choice in life. It can't be a laughing matter. Being nerdy and geeky is extremely laughable though!

    For the "white" part, it's cool since he himself is white. You should know better: people are allowed to laugh at their own kind.

    Another thing: don't cry all the time, grow up!

  15. So Zune? on Microsoft Launches the Zune · · Score: 0

    So soon?

    It's seems Microsoft will finally launch something on time and as promised. Must be the begining of the post Gates era.

  16. SCOOP! New iMac!! on Apple Unveils 24" iMac · · Score: 1, Funny

    Rumors have it that Apple and Samsung just teamed up to bring you the new 82" iMac. This will be the largest display on a desktop computer. The source can't confirm it yet, but they say Apple will aggressively price this new iMac at 16,999$ USD.
     
    It creates a big gap in the lineup, but Apple bets that it will be very popular ith pr0n users and it expects to get ROI within the fisrts 4 months of shipping.
     
    The new iMac will be demo'ed at next week "It's showtime!" media event.

    How about Fujitsu drives? In the late 90's, we had a return rate of about 60% on them. Dunno if we got a bad bacth, but 60% is horrible.

  18. Re:Except for the fact on Apple and Windows Will Force Linux Underground · · Score: 0
    OSX is a vendor lock-in solution, and not many people like that.


    Sure, a lot of the l337 peeps that are here on /. don't like that, but to your friendly neighbourhood mom, pops and granny, that's the only reality. And lets face it, they are way much more in numbers than the entire /. community.

    With that said, I could see how OSX could become very popular by the end of the decade. Most people don't care about vendot lock in.

    I was one of the founding members of a LUG at my college, but I since let go the idea that Linux was THE OS for the average user's desktop. It's not there yet, and frankly, I don't know when it'll be. I only use it on my servers now.

    I admit to using GNU/Linus on servers - but its for very good reasons - It's more stable.


    GNU/Linus? I hope they didn't GPL him in the process... Imagine, you would have the right to "use" Linus as long as you mention his mom and dad.
