  1. Windows Starter Edition is a GOOD THING on Windows XP Starter Edition off to Slow Start · · Score: 0

    Windows Starter Ed. is a GOOD THING. If people want to go with a non-pirated OS, they're going to choose FOSS and *nix over Windows.

  2. This is a huge waste of energy and time... on Online Purchases Can Give You Away · · Score: 0

    WHY would they want to know these things?

  3. (ducks) on Microsoft Robots to Watch Kids · · Score: 0

    Yes, but does it run Linux?

  4. Re:Wow! on Nintendo Warns MMO Company Over Trademark Issues · · Score: 0

    Yes, actually. In Wind Waker, Link starts off in orange pants with a blue shirt.

  5. Metal Man on Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy Trailer · · Score: 0

    While not at all relevant, I'm taking this opportunity to ask anyone if they've got a recording of Moore's EPs recorded as Marvin, "Metal Man" and "Marvin, I Love You".

    Does anyone have Moore's EPs recorded as Marvin, "Metal Man" and "Marvin, I Love You"?

  6. Re:Ford's Thumb? on Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy Trailer · · Score: 0

    It would be great if they could get Simon Jones (he played Arthur in the radio series and BBC miniseries) to play Slartibartfast.

  7. 2001 on NASA Prepares Discovery for Launch · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Additional generic "2001" reference!

  8. Re:Long answer on Death of the Album? · · Score: 1

    The biggest problem (or the only one?) with the "smorgasboard" system is that certain albums are meant to be listened to all at once. "Dark Side of the Moon", anybody?

  9. Re:Yes and no on Death of the Album? · · Score: 1

    I see them frequently. The Pink Floyd concert album "Pulse" has red LED lights that blink. One Marilyn Manson album has blue and yellow patterns on it, that turn into green text when you hold the blue plastic sheet included over the cover.

    I do agree with you, though. However, storage space and being able to see the spines trumps pretty covers.

  10. Re:well... on Court Docs Reveal Kazaa Logging User Downloads · · Score: 1

    IRC is fine for small files, such as MP3s and SNES ROMs. But distribution of movies, complete albums, modern game ISOs and the like will be extremely rare. Even TV episodes are difficult -- try something like RewindTV (irc.dejatoons.net). Not many people have connections higher than 512k-- and those that do have 10mbit are so popular, their queues boggle the mind.

  11. Re:Nintendo's fate on Nintendo's Early 2005 Strategy · · Score: 2, Funny

    Of the people *I* know, he has a GameCube and an Xbox, but no PS2!

  12. Not lost... on BitTorrent Community After SuprNova Shutdown · · Score: 1

    http://bi-torrent.com has a complete mirror of Suprnova's contents two days before its downfall.
