Never got the admin password though. Aparently, it was changed every week or something like that. At first, I put firefox and some emulators on a network drive, and latter made the folder hidden. All student account were limited users though, and we couldn't type c:\ into the IE bar and browse files. However, you can get around that by typing the path you want to browse in Word's web toolbar. Later, I just started putting the files on my USB stick. Put it in, autoplay comes up, select open in explorer, execute program. To any students: I don't recommend doing this. It can seriously hurt your grade.

Dell Media Experience does suck. Power DVD doesn't. So I uninstalled Dell Media Experience and installed the Power DVD cd I got from buying a DVD burner for another computer which already had it. I think Dell bundles musicmatch sometimes also.
Makes sense to me. If all incoming calls were free, then the cellphone user could call a landline user, and just say call me back. The landline user, who would most likely get unlimited minutes, would call them back, and they can talk as long as they want basically for free. Other places charge the person who's calling for the call? I don't want to be charged extra from calling from a landline to a local number. So I could say paying extra for outgoing calls to a cellphone is the worst idea I've ever heard.:)
I agree. Which is why I use adblock in the first place. There's come stuff you can add to your usercontent.css that automatically blocks pretty much all ads. But with adblock, you need to add the urls manually. I block that ads that annoy me. Of course, I block all ads from that server when I do that. So don't run annoying ads.
How can Liberal bias mean telling both sides of the story? " 1. A preference or an inclination, especially one that inhibits impartial judgment. 2. An unfair act or policy stemming from prejudice." Telling both sides of the story is not having a bias. And I don't know why you think everyone would do better than Bush. You'd rather die than vote for Bush? You'd rather the world end than Bush be president? You haven't committed suicide, since you're still here posting.
Gun ownership and the death penality don't pertain to the core of Christianity. But there is such a thing as a "Christian world view." Personally, I don't care too much about Gun ownership. Or at least, I don't have a strong position either way. Same with the death penality. Which is better, death or life in prison? Maybe the prisoner should get the choice. BTW, I would like a good, Christian Liberal as the next president. What would say about someone who opposes abortion and gay marriage, but would more heavily tax the rich, and give money to the poor by more tax breaks, national health care, etc? About the gay marriage thing, I still think they're better than that guy who runs the godhatefags site. I can see why you are angry about hypocracy though. I've been a pretty bad example myself, honestly.
It should say will be compatible. Click on a radio station in firefox. "Sorry, doesn't work yet." Or try a video. "We're sorry, this feature is unsupported in Firefox."
Um, as to your point number three, the article uses Zelda and FF as examples of games that are not pick up and play.
"I'm still blown away everytime a new Final Fantasy or Legend of Zelda game comes out, and I look forward to spending hundreds of hours with them exploring all of their intricacies. That being said, the same things that attract me to these games might repel others who are casual gamers or non-Gamers."
Nintendo is good at pick up and play games. I was thinking of Super Smash Bros. as well. And Mario Kart, as mentioned in the article. Mario Kart 64 was the game that got me into gaming. The nature of racing games seems to make them easily playable. I mean games more like Mario Kart and Cruisin' USA. You just race, you don't have to bother with all the stuff in games like Project Gothem Racing or Gran Turismo. Even Need for Speed underground isn't "arcadey" enough for my tastes.
I agree that both types of games are needed. Bejeweled is an excellent example of a good, simple game IMO. But I also really like games like the Mario RPG/Paper Mario series.
Shrek 2 has "previews" that you can't skip through. You can fast forward though. Selling those kind of movies is horrible. For the rented DVD, you should've just copied it and removed the ads. For that free DVD with pizza from Pizza Hut, ads were ok. Not on something you buy. But rending is nicer than downloading. Renting gets you the movie 1000 times faster. There's also more selection.
"Hell even the iPod... what truly separates it from other players? Yeah the hardware is good, and it looks slick, but it's the interface. And iTunes."
It's because of marketing. Mostly viral marketing. They have somehow made it cool to own an ipod, and made people think of ipod whenever they think of a portable music player. Apple and iPod seem simmillar to Microsoft and Windows.
" Yes I mean Final Fantasy. But go ahead, name me a relevant RPG franchise on a Non-Portable Ninentdo console. That's what I thought."
Paper Mario. Really, really awesome games.
Are they worried about a bunch of stuff being sent out? Or just ideas? An employee could just send an email detailing a companies plan from their home. Cue thought police.;) Although this is probably designed to protect against people accidentally leaking secret information. It wouldn't work for corporate spies, who, as previously mentioned, would just stick a USB stick up their butt.
I'd buy music online if it were.50 for a lossless track. I think maybe it should depend on song length as well. I'd be willing to pay a lot more for a 12:00 minute songs than a 2:30 minute song.
"It's considered shameful to fail in most other countries."
It is considered shameful to fail here in the US. They probably do work harder though. I've not been diligent in my High School and before studies, but I still get good grades. Hm..... Also, have you ever read Hard Times? We read that in English class. I didn't like it too much, but it warns of the dangers of making kids educational robots.
How many people own macs? More than 100 million? I'd wager that at least that many consoles, with IBM processors, will be sold next console generation. No, this doesn't give them an incentive to improve constantly, but they will want the best they can give when it's time for the console makers to decide which company to choose for the processors for the generation after next.

When did they announce they'd be selling a system without a drive? From all I've heard, there will be a 20 GB hard drive standard.
They're still selling SM64 on the DS, so I don't think they'd give it away for free. Zelda, maybe. I want Excitebike 64. It doesn't work very well with emulators, and it's an awesome game.

And you don't know which movies have them until you play it. Are there any sites that list which movies have unskippable ads?
To xvid, WMV, and nero digital? Is nero digital any good? I have it, but I've never used it.
Does Super Smash Bros. count ad 2D? If they switched to a 3D control scheme, it would ruin the game.

10 or 20 dollars for unlimited downloads? Or are you talking something more like emusic, where you pay $10 a month for 40 song downloads per month?
How do artists get paid for subscription music services? Like Napster, Rhapsody, and Yahoo? Do they get paid per play or what?
So, cdbaby distributes to yahoo music unlimited too I assume?

I believe broadway is made by IBM. Cnet is the only one who lists broadway as intel instead of ibm, AFAIK.
