  1. Re:Easy prediction on DRM on Cringely's 2006 Results, 2007 Predictions · · Score: 1

    But somebody keeps buying their product...

  2. Re:What about for driving? on Study Shows Cell Phones Safe · · Score: 1

    They didn't take into effect the amount of vehicular accidents that are caused by inattentive cell phone drivers. This is probably the most unsafe aspect of them

    Vehicular Accidents are not cancer. I wouldn't expect them to take this into account.

  3. Re:"Physics today" covered axion searches in Augus on Tiny Particle With No Charge Discovered · · Score: 1

    So that would make it "Physics from 4 Months Ago".

  4. Heh... on Nike+ iPod Used For Surveillance · · Score: 1

    This just in! Cell phone users can be tracked using the GPS chip located inside the handset! They can also be tracked using the very signal they use to communicate! GASP!

    Seriously. BFD.

  5. So... on Ban On Louisiana Video Game Law Now Permanent · · Score: 1

    So...kids have rights now? How long before they get cell phones in high schools, drink when they go to war (18), etc.?

  6. Re:Did they plan on this? on iPod Has Nothing To Fear From Slow-Starting Zune · · Score: 1

    a moon pony.

  7. Re:The hyperbolic chamber on Michigan Teen Creates Fusion Device · · Score: 1

    Maybe he really wanted to make this?

  8. Re:Universal Music are getting Zune Money on Universal Music Sues MySpace · · Score: 1

    Remember Universal are getting money off Microsoft for every Zune sold. Perhaps this deal was done in order to give them a bit more money to go after Google. Just like MS did with their SCO Linux licences. So, they got an extra $20. What's that gonna get them, another 30 seconds with their lawyers?

  9. Re:The real answer on Variety Declares VHS Dead · · Score: 1

    Why do you need internet when you have no power to use the Desktop?

    I know, I know, Generators, APCs, Laptops, etc. But when power goes out on my road, the Amplifier for the Cable company at the end of the road loses power too, and I lose internet. How is this much different?

  10. Re:The real answer on Variety Declares VHS Dead · · Score: 2, Informative

    This could be fixed with Internet over Power. Then broadband will be exactly as ubiquitous and reliable as electricity. It actually doesn't really take as much to implement; the infrastructure is already there.

  11. Re:12 million phones? on Apple Orders 12 Million iPhones · · Score: 2, Insightful

    I don't imagine they'll be able to supply all 12 million right away. If you order in large enough quantities, you get a significant discount. Plus, By the time they've produced a good 8 million, Apple will know how well they sell, and will subsequently order accordingly.

  12. Re:It's all about the interface on Apple Orders 12 Million iPhones · · Score: 2, Informative

    RAZR: Go to Address Book, Then hit menu. Then go down to Setup, and Change view to "Primary Contacts". Instantly, all your qualms are resolved. (Didn't read all your replies, I hope I'm not the fifth to say this).

  13. Tag, you're it! on Windows Chief Suggests Vista Won't Need Antivirus · · Score: 1

    For once, the tagging system is 100% accurate!

  14. Re:I'd want money from Universal then... on Zune Profits Go To Record Label · · Score: 1

    Welcome to America where you are Guilty until proven innocent. ...wait a second...

  15. Re:Prove it... on Blind Mice See Again After Cell Transplants · · Score: 1

    Simple. Put an electrode in the visual cortex of the animal, and see if it's got increased activity. Or, an fMRI would do the trick. compare the reading from before with the after, and see where the increased activity resides.

  16. Re:Controls as bad as WMP 10? on Windows Media Player 11 Released · · Score: 1

    Microsoft employees went to college?

  17. Re:Care? Nope on What If Apple Made A Cell Phone And No One Cared? · · Score: 4, Interesting

    Why can't they just make their own network a la MVNO (like Virgin Mobile, for example)? Apple has always been about the entire experience, that's why they make/design both the software and the hardware for every other product they make.

    It would only make sense for them to provide the entire experience, by starting their own virtual network.

  18. Not just Macs... on Apple Recycling Old Macs for Free · · Score: 2, Informative

    Apple will recycle ANY computer you decide to unload on them when you purchase a new computer. Even your old 486 Win 3.1 box. That way, switchers get in on the recycling action too.

    Here's a snippet from the Shareholder meeting stating so.

  19. Re:But will we have... on Paint-on Laser Brings Optical Computing Closer · · Score: 1

    I was actually hoping for 1.21 jigga what's.

  20. That would have been funny... on Opera to Put User's Face in Times Square · · Score: 1

    Except for that it wasn't.

  21. Re:That's because the average person has no skills on Gamers Better at Driving w/ Cell Phones? · · Score: 1

    Most gamers on the other hand have like nunchuck skills, bowhunting skills, computer hacking skills, etc... I believe you meant Bowstaff skills. Napoleon doesn't hunt.

  22. How Much you wanna bet... on Xooglers - Google Discussed by Ex-Googlers · · Score: 1

    How much you wanna bet some exec at Google submitted it so that the Xoogle blog would get /.ed?

  23. Yeah, but on Web Based Rhapsody Targets Linux · · Score: 1

    Apple has always stated that iTMS exists to sell iPods, not the other way around. if someone creates another service to expand the use/sales of iPods, who cares?

  24. Re:Who cashes in? on iTMS Moving Up The Sales Charts · · Score: 1

    Apple has said in the past that iTMS is not about selling music, it's about selling iPods.

  25. Re:Holy shit! - Do the math on Texas Sues Sony BMG over Rootkit · · Score: 1

    Considering there were 52 Named CDs, I believe there would have to be 52 masters made, at the minimum.
