  1. Vorbis? on Low-bandwidth Net Radio · · Score: 0

    They conducted a test on low bitrate codecs and and left out Vorbis (yet they tested mp3)? From the 5-minute listening test I conducted (opinion!), HE-AAC was indeed a bit better than vorbis (at about 32k), but only a bit. I think it is too serious of a competitor to be left out of tests like that.

  2. Master Machine? on Curious Blend of VPN, PDA and USB Drive · · Score: 0

    The MPS in fact is the main PC and does not require another "master machine" I don't understand this. If it connects via USB, you DO need a "master machine"...

  3. Miniscule? on Apple Releases Mac Mini · · Score: 0

    They misspelled minuscule! How can I trust them now?!

  4. Re:Why so few iTunes compatible MP3 players? on Digital Music Player Overview · · Score: 1

    They probably have to pay for it, I guess...

  5. OGG? on Digital Music Player Overview · · Score: 1, Insightful

    None of these play Vorbis/FLAC? (Or at least it doesn't say they do). That's my number one reason for choosing a player, it's too bad it's overlooked.

  6. By the way... on NYT on EA Games · · Score: 1, Troll

    ... does anyone know if EA are hiring?

  7. I knew it on NYT on EA Games · · Score: 1, Interesting

    I wonder if EA employees envy the jocks they went to highschool with. It's a strange paradox.

  8. Architecture on Intel "East Fork" Technology Migration · · Score: 0

    Imagine Intel's speed with AMD's architectural benefits. Could this be it?

  9. Re:Interface on BBC Magazine's Search-Engine Shootout · · Score: 1

    Ah, I haven't used Yahoo in a long time, and when I did, I always went to www.yahoo.com. Maybe it should be the other way around, with the portal being at portal.yahoo.com :P

  10. Re:Google? Not anymore on BBC Magazine's Search-Engine Shootout · · Score: 1

    Not only this, but it's usually a totally irrelevant page, with keywords thrown in just to confuse you. I don't get these people.

  11. Interface on BBC Magazine's Search-Engine Shootout · · Score: 2, Informative

    The most important thing for me is a clean interface, and thus I don't care much if Yahoo is faster. Just compare hotmail with gmail, hotmail is like a newspaper. I just want to read my email! I hope MSN search doesn't load thousands of images to display your query.

  12. Re:GPLed? on Wired: Pro-Level, GPL'd Audio Editing For Linux · · Score: 1

    I should start reading the topics instead of just clicking on them :(

  13. GPLed? on Wired: Pro-Level, GPL'd Audio Editing For Linux · · Score: 0, Redundant

    It's GPLed too?

  14. NeXT Cube on NeXTSTEP To Mac OS X · · Score: 1

    That was a nice idea, they should release Macs in shapes. Spheres, pyramids, or even woman-shaped pcs, for the more unfortunate of us!
