    Does that statement raise anyone else's eyebrows?

  2. Re:Not being an IE User on IE7 Details Emerge · · Score: 2, Funny

    Let me get this straight. You're asking Slashdot if IE is good?

    Hate to reply to myself, but here's the article

    From the Article:

    "English reiterated that features such as tabbed browsing are not important to IE users."

  4. I thought... on IE7 Details Emerge · · Score: 2, Informative
    I think I remember someone from MS saying that their users don't want tabbed browsing, therefore IE will not get tabbed browsing.

    I guess he's wrong.

    or maybe they do know but don't want speculation and rumors?

    I will be buying a PS3 solely because the PS2 controller is the only one with actually intuitive control schemes, because of the symmetrical placement of the sticks.

    You are of course assuming that the other consoles' controllers will be worse than they are now. Hopefully, they will learn from their mistakes.

  7. Required Online? on Gamespy Reveals Xbox Next Specs · · Score: 1
    Microsoft is requiring developers to make all Xenon titles Live enabled. One of the key reasons for this will be revealed in the second part of this story.

    This might not work out for some games...

    Sony looks like they're throwing more effort into getting games out.

    Sony makes games? I always thought they paid third parties to make games for them

    Hey, he might organize an army of knights now.

  11. Question... on Google's Technology Explored · · Score: 4, Interesting
    Moreover, Google has created its own patches for things that haven't been fixed in the original kernel.

    Do they share these patches with everyone else?

    Maybe unrelated but, there is a teddy computer.

    From TFA:

    According to the AntiSpyware Beta end-user license agreement (EULA), Microsoft will reimburse direct damages up to $5 for problems associated with the new downloadable tool that wards off spyware, adware and any other "potentially unwanted software."

    Is everyone looking for cash in EULA's nowadays?

  17. Re:Xbox HDD = Microsoft's iPod killer? on Xbox 2 To Feature Removeable Hard Drive · · Score: 1
    There's yet to be a followup to the Dreamcast VMU and the Sony PocketStation for the PS/2 / Xbox / Gamecube generation of consoles.

    Does plugging your GBA into gamecube count? It's kinda like the Dreamcast VMU in that there is a screen.

  18. Re:Sony get it right on Sony Admits to PSP Button Flaws · · Score: 3, Informative

    There was competition. If I remember correctly, the GameGear/Nomad was around in the 90's. None of that was Sony's work. Yeah, yeah, there was also the Wonderswan, but I don't think it made as big a splash as the gamegear did.

  19. Another Study... on Study Finds Windows More Secure Than Linux · · Score: 1

    I'll admit that I didn't RTFA, but Zone-H did a study on windows vs. linux security, and the conclusion was similar.

    ...and google disagrees with some content on it (read: investors aren't happy with content), there's a possibility of censorship or removal of content?

    The content doesn't have to be hosted on Google's servers for Google to edit the content. Wikipedia articles can be edited by anyone.

  21. Too good to be true on PSP to Launch with Five Online Titles · · Score: 1
    After I RTFA...

    Last year it emerged that Sony had plans to create a unified PlayStation Portable online service which would allow customers to pay a single subscription fee to access PSP services from any of a wide range of commercial wireless hotspots, but no further details have emerged since.

    Yay, a subscription!

    You got me wrong. Look at the words I quoted. The fact that it's trying to compete with both the handheld and cellphone markets makes it seem like the N-Gage.

  24. Wait a second... on Sony PSP Sales Way Up · · Score: 1, Troll
    Kutaragi said he wanted to give the PSP communication and web-browsing functions so it could compete against multi-function mobile phone handsets.

    Sounds like another N-Gage to me...
