Never mind PalmOS and kicking HP because you didn't like their desktops - who do I contact to buy their stocks of the following (and I'm not kidding):
tx2000 series tx2500 series tx2, tm2, etc...
Now those were tablets - convertable, high specced, ergonomic, reliable, expandable and DROPPABLE, with full keyboard and swivel & fold touch / stylus screens and GRAPHICS CARDS THAT PLAY OBLIVION dammit! These things included the kitchen sink!
How they failed to make a profit with these is beyond me, I had one (a tx2530ea) when there were rumours there would be an iPhone tablet, and people in McDonald's would say "wow, what's that? is it the new iPad" and, knowing the specs of the rumoured iPad I'd say, "no, it's better! Several times better, in fact, and I've had it 2 years!)
HP, your pre-WebOS tablets will be sorely missed, and I mean that.
Why, how much is your average ass-hymen worth in hymenology circles lately? Are you buying? If not, why the interest? Are you saying you want my ass? AC, you've been stalking me for a long time, but I had no idea you felt that way. I can be reached at
I dont claim anything of the sort - I must say, AC, you're scraping the bottom of the barrel here, the post you are replying to is fact. Manchesters contributions to computing and economics are so solid that if you cant be bothered checking my facts you deserve to live the American fantasy, and you will take the consequences of trying to rewrite history with the rest of your brethren. The world has had enough of everything you are doing, not just rewriting the past. Your 'military might' is stretched as it is, I dont think you can handle europe, china and russia as well. Id quit doing this crap right now if I was you. I just cant believe the amount of you who think you beat turing to it, or think the world was created in 6 days a few thousand years ago. As I said to another troll, the world's better off without you lot.
Plenty of valid objections, actually, starting with plucking pubic hairs out of my mouth for hours afterward, and choking on them for days afterward. And don't say "I shave", I like my men hairy, thank you.
Looks like you're boned, to borrow an Americanism.
This afternoon the lameness filter stopped me from rebutting a troll with the output from a tracert (too many padding characters), even though it didn't malform anything at all.
But the lameness filter actually allowed this spam through???
I've got some news for you,/. devs, your lameness filter is, er, lame. Sort it. I want to post output from the console. My "fans" lol want the output from that console (it could have proved a point which was left unproven!). Nobody wanted this (repetition of URL was blatant giveaway to any automated system) and yet here it is. Come on, anybody would think you don't mind spam but hate clever trolls...
That would be me. The ensuing discussion focussed on the frustration felt by owners of the Nokia N900, a more powerful and interesting platform than any iDevice but underpromoted and overpriced by retailers and networks.
past the post is a crap voting system. It needs reforming.
This post is Flamebait, it is a Troll, it's Offtopic and yet it is strangely Funny, Informative and Underrated after you read it all (including what's below). Mod on.
The one thing's it's NOT is a FP... there was already one post there when I clicked post. It just looks like it might be a failed FP... then it surprises you.
You stupid fucker, that's because you've gone about rewriting the history of computing, and you dominate the Internet with posts like the one I replied to.
Where do I claim that Manchester is the "center" of the internet? Alan Turing is the forefather of modern computing, and the "Manchester Baby" was the prototype of the aforementioned first commercial programmable computer.
How the hell can you justify telling me to "piss off, ya tosser" when I posted a FACT, disputing yet another Amero-centric attempt at twisting people's perceptions of history. And you wonder why the rest of the world hates America and Americans, you even play that card in your attempt to turn groupthink against me.
So in one post, you confirm that you're bullies, that you wish to downplay others' achievements ("nor is particular accredited") - Turing Machine you dumbass!!!! and you are liars - attributing something I never said to me. Fucking die and leave others to create a fair and just society - hey, I'll give you this one for free - it's called Manchester Capitalism (yes it fucking is do your research before trolling again) and it's something we WISH we could re-write here in Manchester!!!
I hate to tell you this (can't you tell?), but the Ferranti Mark one, based on Alan Turing's Manchester "Baby", was the first commercially produced programmable computer.
You pesky Americans, always trying to rewrite history! You're modded Insightful, too, and I bet I get "Troll" mods for stating facts, yet again.
Hmmm.. and you know this because you've been hacking them yourself right?
As much as I'd be forced to agree with the majority of points in this discussion (it's not the Feds, duh!), I have to point out that if the FBI was sniffing my (or your) trafffic, they'd have to use the same 2.4Ghz or 5Ghz gear, otherwise they couldn't sniff a thing!
Oh, the irony of the mods - you're currently at 0, Troll. Your UID alone should have told the mods you're a bit more mature than the average troll, but hey, this is/.!
Oh:-( Nobody can rank my epenis, because I'll never have one.
I once posted to a discussion here in which people were bragging about their gaming laptop specs, complete with link to a HP product page, and they referred to it as e-penis envy.
So even though I never thought about cocks, I was still a "lamer" cos my machine outspecced the boys' machines and I'm a woman, therefore don't qualify.:-(
I bet if I was a boy, I'd probably have a bigger one than half of you, or just a little less... </obviousgendertroll>

Yes, ok, I know it makes good sense, and I know lots of people who would appreciate it.
So, which ones?
Which ones? In the UK?

Troll too far, methinks...
Yes, I saw that, and wondered - do they verify virgin status and hold meetings and take votes about them? Do I need my hymen intact to be a member?
I might as well not apply...
Insightful, but written in such a bad style and with such crap grammar you're going to get modded troll.
Shame, there's some good points in there.
No. The first post has prior art. So do everyone who ever posted one. Sorry, was your post meant to be funny?
Yep, 'Three laws safe!' - well we all know where the got (gets) us, dont we, boys and girls?

Wow, you're next in line to the Queen herself, come and assimilate me!
No more lies, no more inefficiency caused by greed, no more insecurities, no more gender crap, wow.
Get here, now. Transwarp, transporter, I don't care.
ps love your username x
Hmmm... my sarcasm detector is making confused noises. Also, you're feeling generous? So, what do I get, sarcasm, or something I am yet to receive? :P
That would be me. The ensuing discussion focussed on the frustration felt by owners of the Nokia N900, a more powerful and interesting platform than any iDevice but underpromoted and overpriced by retailers and networks.
You idiot, we don't pee from there. We pee from a tiny orifice just in front of there. Thanks for playing.

Lol... 1st bite...
On a serious note, how is posting my specs in reply to other similar posts being a whiny bitch about it?
Mudkip is a Pokemon! It's a Mud-type pokemon, with Water and Ground-like attributes.
