  1. Re:Are we sure about his motives? on Utah Works To Repeal Anti-Transparency Law · · Score: 1

    The bill originally passed with enough votes to override a Herbert veto. He made the right call.

  2. Re:give it to the legislature, not the Governor... on Utah Governor 'Honored' With Blackhole Award · · Score: 1

    This was my understanding as well. The legislature had the votes to override the Governor's veto. So, he signed it but gave it time to become law so it COULD be hashed out in public. Shame on the legislature indeed.

  3. More corporate users? on NYTimes Speculates On the Next iPhone · · Score: 2, Interesting

    I'm not saying that the ability to utilize Microsoft's Push technology for Exchange will make up an 8 million unit defecit, but I know a lot of businesses/corporations out there passed over the iPhone for the lack of integration. In short, it was a great consumer phone, but not such a great business phone. There will be a lot of new iPhone purchases where I work once the 2.0 software is available, regardless of the hardware it goes on.

  4. Unified Messaging on Why "Upgrade" To Office 2007 · · Score: 1

    I know one of our big factors is unified messaging. It fits the direction we're headed, and from what I've seen/heard of it, it's pretty slick. Just my two cents.

  5. X-BOX on Microsoft Unveils Online Advertising Service · · Score: 0

    Congratulations! You have reached Halo Level 2. Please take a moment to support us by clicking on one of our sponsors.

  6. Re:Availability on Wal-Mart to Offer Components for DIY Computers · · Score: 0

    For me it's the "gotta have it now" factor. Having a decent selection of hardware at a local Wal*Mart isn't a bad thing, IMHO. I like on-line, but generally when looking for a component, I'm needing it sooner rather than later.

  7. Re:Microsoft is never silent before the storm. on Is Microsoft Silent Before a Deadly Storm? · · Score: 0

    What about Bob?

    Actually, Bob shed his spectacles and is currently involved with slashing prices at Wal*Mart.

  8. Re:So to come back to reality... on Matrox TripleHead Triples Your Viewing Pleasure · · Score: 0

    This is huge. It might inspire a new generation of fat WoW nerds to become even fatter and more addicted.

    Am not! >:(

  9. Re:Amazing on Spirit Rover Reaches Safety · · Score: 0

    Considering that the scientists didn't expect them to even last this long, everything else it's accomplished (and hopefully will accomplish) is gravy. Way to go, NASA!

  10. Having tried both companies... on Netflix Suing Blockbuster for Patent Infringement · · Score: 0

    I don't believe Netflix has much to worry about. After a horrible experience of nearly everything in my queue being marked as "Short Wait" or "Long Wait" and then being sent the wrong movies entirely, I cancelled my Blockbuster account forthwith and returned to Netflix, citing those very reasons to them. That was last week. I have since enjoyed 5 movies from my Netflix queue with no delay. No, I'm not on Netflix's payroll, just a satisfied customer.

  11. Pass on Fight Tooth Decay with Electricity · · Score: 5, Funny

    When I was 10 I tried touching a 9-volt to my braces. Nuff said.

  12. Re:Hmmmm on A Practical Guide to DIY LCD Projectors · · Score: 1

    I anxiously await the first person to point out a spelling or usage error in my post--it's traditional.

    Walmount: Wal*Mart. It is DIY after all...

  13. In other news... on Jan 2009 Deadline for HDTV Cutoff · · Score: 2, Funny

    "Meanwhile, lawmakers are eager to reclaim the analog airwaves to improve public safety radio communication. Congress also wants to auction the spectrum to wireless high-speed Internet services."

    In a related story, an 88 car pile-up on I-5 today seems to have been caused by an inattentive driver who was configuring his wireless high-speed to receive improved public safety radio communication.

  14. Re:having to deal with people on Tech Support Businesses on the Rise · · Score: 1

    I used to do tech support over the phone. It was generally the 10 year olds that ended up fixing the problem caused by mom and dad.
