  1. Re:Vista will flop on Windows Vista Beta Running on a PPC Mac · · Score: 1

    I think Vista will be a huge success. With M$ partnership with hardware vendors, everyone will be forced to upgrade yet again, and both M$ and the hardware vendors will be advertising like crazy telling us how great vista is and why we MUST have it...

    mod parent up!

    Also a paper with emergency numbers posted beside the phone helps even if you don't have a phone with speed dial. It will take you five minutes, and it could save your life. Simple!

    Windows update - the only reason I ever use IE on my windows box.

  11. Re:Slashdotting retail establishments on The Pirate Bay is Here to Stay? · · Score: 1

    That's right, and if they say you have to head to the back of the bus because of the colour of your skin, just do it and don't say a word.

  12. Re:Windows on mac WHAT?? on WinXP on a Mac, Hoax? · · Score: 1

    I think a lot of the hate towards windows comes from having to use it for work. For many, being able to run the windows apps that we need to from time to time, and OSX the rest of the time, is actually freeing us from windows :) get it?

  13. Re:My requests on What Would Be Your Ideal Futuristic Home? · · Score: 1

    I agree - put your money somewhere that it makes a difference. SOUND SYSTEM!

  14. Re:Some details from a Vonage/Shaw customer. on Vonage Files Regulatory Complaint Over QoS Premium · · Score: 1

    I'm also at the base of Mt. Doug.. small world! I'm using both Shaw and Telus for high speed. So far both have been great and only a few problems with using Skype for VOIP.

  15. Re:Big Roadblocks on Is the Home Desktop Going Away? · · Score: 1

  17. Re:No. on Canada's CD Tax Out of Hand? · · Score: 1

    They could lend you their computer and broadband connection, with a nice sftp client to transfer to your home server

  18. Re:In related news.... on Quantum Computer Works Better Shut Off · · Score: 1

    "There is no reasonable defense against an idiot with an agenda " Love your sig man! So funny that all one has to see is "idiot" and "agenda" to know what it's about...

  19. Re:Why, kiddies? on MacBook Pros Upgraded and Shipped · · Score: 1

    Lots of us are forced to use windows at work, which I think is a good part of all the windows bashing (being forced to use something that sucks). The idea of having a windows machine for fat apps we NEED and OSX for what we WANT all in one is great !

  20. Re:"Windows XP Vista"?? on Intel Launches Centrino Duo Notebooks · · Score: 1

    Your Software bills will reach new Vista's! (now we know where they got the name)

  21. Re:Do they still matter? on Do LUGs Still Matter? · · Score: 2, Interesting

    Since linux is becoming the mainstream, I think we'll see more specific types of LUGs develop, such as gaming and programming.

    In other news, Kazaa has just been sold by sharman networks to a French company.

    Myself, I don't care about the real-time aspect, I care about having more than 3 radio stations playing crappy music. Instead I can have hundreds playing crappy music.. hey wait a minute

  25. Re:The problem is, nobody bothered to ask users on Going From Gator to Claria · · Score: 1

    That would be a very fair question. Considering a lot of times the software it comes with is trash anyways, I think the answer would be 'no'.
