    Wow you are ignorant to assume that. Most "Americans" i know consider it to be classic literature even at its young age. It is read in many colleges already. Dont assume we wouldnt get it. Although i am sure many of the younger generation 18 might not, many older than that would.

    You are right. Although, it is "moron" and "retarded".

  10. Re:Why would I want a PSP? on PSP And DS Duke It Out · · Score: 0

    I personally travel a lot, and having this device will sure beat having just a weak portable dvd player, because now i can convert ANY media i have to play on the psp. I think you will find that to be a big selling point to a lot of people. I dont own an mp3 player, so im getting that as well. And its also a video game system with great gfx and great games. Thats 3 big in ones in my opinion. I will dish out the 250 for it.

    Yes. That is the exact reason my corporation will not change our internal browser. I know the anti ms zealots will be quick to respond with yadda yadda. But most of the kiddies here dont have the slightest clue what kind of work it takes to change something as simple as a web browser in a corporation. Yes i say most, and i know there are lots who DO know how hard it is. But i am not talking about you.

  15. Re:IE is dead on CSS Support IE 7.0's Weakest Link · · Score: 1, Insightful

    Wrong. Using Firefox means "im an idiot" because you dont know how to pay attention to spyware. Even now there are more flaws announced weekly for firefox/mozilla than there are for IE. Its a balance. It will go back and forth. Whoever is popular will be plauged.

  16. Re:FF not that great anyway. on Firefox Continues to Bite into IE Usage · · Score: 0

    You dont think im joking because its the truth and ppl dont want to mention all the crappy bugs Firefox has. At least not on slashdot. I never have probs with IE. I will be the first to admit I install Firefox on my inlaws/friends computers who dont know crap about safe webbrowsing because if i dont they will call me back in 2 days and ill have to reformat their crap. But for the intelligent person, there is no need to put up with all of FFs downfalls. IE is just better.

  17. FF not that great anyway. on Firefox Continues to Bite into IE Usage · · Score: 1, Funny

    I for one have switched back to IE on my Windows workstations. FF is too incompatible with pron sites. It gives those stupid "accessing a non secure site" errors even when the box to keep showing the error is unchecked. Also I like to leave my browsers up for days at a time. FF barfs on linux and windows after a few days of being left on. You have to close it out and open it back up. Honestly, i get less pop ups with IEsp2 than i do with FF. I got tired of only using FF because i was supposed to. Bottom line is its NOT a better browser. Once IE7 is out, tabbed browsing finally, no reason to even consider FF. I dont care if IE7 isnt compliant with "standards" Which i dont believe are standard int he first place because IE doesnt support them and 90% of ppl use IE. THat is standard in my book.

    I sure dont care. This type of animation makes me barf. And it makes me barf more to hear their english accents. Why do ppl still like this sort of thing? Its not 1985 anymore.

    I agree. Plus the general stigma that women do not know anything technical is hard for even me to get over sometimes. I KNOW this is not true, but it is immediately in the front of my mind when dealing with a female IT person for anything.

  23. Author made a horrible decision in the first place on EULA Confusion w/ Used Copies of WoW? · · Score: 1, Interesting

    First of all this post doesnt even deserve the merit of a response. No offense, but you NEVER EVER BUY AN MMORPG THAT IS USED. NEVER. Unless the person gives you a copy of his username and password. No one should even be selling it! I thought this would be common knowledge by now. This article should be more about the lesson this guy learned by doing that, than the EULA. Who cares about the EULA, this is how MMORPGS work, you are getting into some pretty vague specifics to justify an inane purchase/decision in the first place!

  24. Not a big Babylon fan...but... on Straczynski Offers To Re-Boot Star Trek [updated] · · Score: 0

    I never was a big Babylon fan, but as a Die Hard "Trekkie" "Trekker" whatever is politically correct these days, it pains me to see Star Trek go away and would be open to any possibility of a Star Trek show current or new being on TV. Seriously though. If they didnt show Enterprise on UPN it would have much larger viewership. Not everyone i know gets UPN in the states..
