  1. All I have to say is... on What's the Point of IT Certifications? · · Score: 1

    ...I am just a student employee at my college and I know more than some full time employees with A+ certifications. It's really kind of sad.

  2. failure on Xbox360 Pricing, 2 Models at Launch · · Score: 4, Interesting

    What better way to make no one want to buy your system than to release two different systems off the bat. If they were smart they would hold off because there just isn't a market for a new system right now. I think I'll wait and get the final version, you know, when they are ready.

    Expectations are the mother of all sorrow

  3. hmmm... on Games As The New Pub · · Score: 4, Funny

    Now if I could only get my girlfriend to play games...

  4. fanless not silent on Completely Silent Media PC · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Just because the computer is fanless doesn't mean it is completely silent. After all, it still has a harddrive right?

  5. Home is better than the office? I think not on What Business Can Learn from Open Source · · Score: 0, Troll

    "home is a better work environment than the office." Ummm... NO! its more like, "home is a better work environment to search slashdot and cheat your buisness out of money than the office."

    But after yesturdays post NRLB Redefines 'Your Own Time' I guess your boss will just set up a camera in your home office.

  6. Re:The answer depends on Hiring Good Programmers Matters · · Score: 1

    I'll go with the Quality programmer, most likely he is not outsourced. WTF do I care if my boss looses money, as long as the money stays here.

  7. Innovative? on Review of Apple's "Mighty Mouse" · · Score: 2, Insightful

    Apple, possibly the most innovative computer company on the planet. Yet, the multi-buttoned mouse is 10 years too late and its not even wireless. Whats up with that?

  8. Re:OT: Mod point suddenly rare? on More New Details on NASA's CEV Launcher Studies · · Score: 0

    Ya subscribe you get 4 points for nothing.

  9. Re:If it ain't broke... on More New Details on NASA's CEV Launcher Studies · · Score: 1

    The problem is that it endangers the life of astronauts. C'mon this is NASA where are the geniuses that are creating a new more efficient Space Craft. Oh ya they are waiting until private organizations come up with something... shame.

  10. Hell Has Definitly Frozen Over on Wireless Networking Speeds of 540 Mbps w/ 802.11n · · Score: 1

    Hell has definitly frozen over... Not only has Apple released a multi-buttoned mouse, tech companies are actually realizing that working together is better than working against each other. Two miracles in one day,who would have thought?

  11. Re:Great... more Nintendo Revolution rumors on View-Dependent Stereoscopic Projection · · Score: 1

    That rumor has already been out there.

  12. Just a question on Is Rodi BitTorrent's Replacement? · · Score: 1

    Would C get in trouble for allowing B to use its IP? After all by using Rodi, C automatically allows B to use its IP; therefore, C is a partner to illegal file sharing.

  13. what?!? on Poor Man's Kinesis Keyboard: The K'nexis Keyboard · · Score: 1

    This has to be the worst mod I have ever seen! I would be so annoyed by this that I would end up ripping off the K'nex sticks and start stabbing my computer with them.

  14. Re:who needs a mouse on Top Mice Compared · · Score: 1

    hey umm... why not read a little further on and notice that I state that games are one of the only reasons I still use a mouse. Also, this is sort of irrelavent because you can just buy a game controller.

  15. who needs a mouse on Top Mice Compared · · Score: 1

    As I excel in my computer skills, I learn more and more that no one should need a mouse. The mouse is very slow and I find that using the keyboard to complete "mouse" tasks, is alot faster and more efficient. The goal of the computer industry is to cut down on periferals and simplify they way we use a computer. I hardly ever touch the mouse anymore it is only an object for my gamming pleasure.

  16. hard drives suck on Samsung Announces Flash-Based Disk Drive · · Score: 1

    Good maybe this will help the fact that a hard drive is possibly the least reliable technology in computers. Flash based drives definatly way more reliable. I think companies should put more money into flash based drives instead of working on the next terrabyte piece of crap!

  17. Trashy analog tv's on Will America's Favorite Technology Go Dark? · · Score: 1

    all i have to say is that is alot of trash!

  18. webroot's the best on Spyware/Adware Prevention In Large Deployments? · · Score: 1

    I work for Bridgewater State College and we have used the Spybot, Ad-aware, and Webroot SpySweeper. So far the most successful Spyware remover has been Webroot. This program finds more traces and is easiest to use. There are alot of students that are not that knowlegeable in computers. Now that we recommend Webroot Enterprise addition there is far less Spyware calls for us to have to go to.

  19. Who needs typing classes! on Is Typing a Necessary Skill? · · Score: 1

    Through the constant use of AIM and other forms of messaging people will learn to type faster. Basic computer knowlge is a better than learning how to type. I never learned how to type from school i hated those classes. Giving general knowlege may hold to be a better method of teaching computers to youngsters. Also, as time goes by eventualy typing is going to become obsolete in most areas of technology, due to advances in voice recognition.
