If casting all their electoral college votes as a bloc for the winner of the national popular vote doesn't pan out, they could always divide them among the candidates in proportion to the number of votes each candidate won in that state. Of course, election reform will never happen, because the people deciding whether to reform the election are always the ones who the current system worked for.
Nintendo is contracting out the hardware design to the same people designing the hardware for the X360 (and the same people who designed the GCN hardware). If they wanted more powerful hardware they could pay for it and pass the spendings on to the consumer. It's not like they can't win on tech, they chose not to so they could reach a more accessible price point.
I seem to remember one where I tried looking for the page that went to the good ending and being unable to find it. I think that book had an A-team-like plot, but I can't be sure.
I also remember one where the first decision you make is whether to answer the door. If you don't, you live out the remainder of your life without incident. ("Are you sure you want to read a Choose Your Own Adventure book?" "No.")
And last but not least, there was the line of longer and more mature books, the first of which was Journey to the Year 3000, or somesuch. Over 300 pages long, and at a critical point the decision is, "If you have a space wasp, go to page X. Otherwise, go to page Y." I think there were multiple places in the story where you could get one, although each was on a separate branch or something--though I'm not positive that there was a way to get one on every branch.
Presumably the wi-fi only is targetted at 1) people who already have home wireless, and 2) people who have one computer connected to the internet and it's not in their living room. Plugging a USB wireless extender into your PC and having it let DSen and Wiix onto your network without having to worry about locking out your neighbours or wardrivers seems like a nice solution for the latter group, which is the mass market they're targetting with the system in the first place.
Do you have a quota on data that had to be pulled over the cable, or all data? If Nintendo hosted the demos from Australia for users there (and paid extra for their own bandwidth to move it to a local mirror), there shouldn't be a reason for the ISPs to charge for it. (Except of course that they're greedy SOBs.) But I expect there's some customizability in what it will and won't download, since there's only 512M of flash to store these demos on anyways.
The javascript security model should prevent this. Assuming the ad is in an iframe (like their text ads), javascript on the host page can't touch it because it's not from the same domain as the rest of the page's content.
Sony's motion detection is based on accelerometers. That's why it can detect tilt, but not position. Nintentdo's is based on triangulation. This is probably why Nintendo can have it both ways and Sony can't.
The japanese can pronounce it just fine. The language used to include kana with the wi sound ( in katakana and in hiragana), and now they use a kana compound, , like they do with other foreign sounds.
When making a Tool-Assisted Speedrun, minimizing lag is one of many optimizations--sometimes a seemingly suboptimal route must be taken because it involves fewer sprites and thus less lag. Of course, hardware overclocking doesn't help those runs since they're meant to be something you could do on stock hardware if you had <16ms reaction times.
You can tell a company how later a company joined the dot-com revolution by how bad a name it had to take to find one whose domain wasn't registered. Examples include Webaroo and letsbuyit.com
A blue moon is the second full moon in a single month. Historically it was the third full moon in a season that had four, back when 1 moon = 1 month and having a thirteenth was a real problem.

The first Xmas after me and a friend of mine got DVD players, I got him Blade Runner. He got me Hackers. We traded less than a month later.
Does the chorus have the line, "And I'm sure there's a deleted scene where you go out with me."?
No, they made a $873 million profit on $4.5 billion in revenues. Still, not too shabby.

Actually there was an SNES redesign. There's a pic on the wikipedia page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SNES_2

He's probably sitting on the steps of Capitol Hill. Maybe you can defeat him with a Schoolhouse Rock to the head.
Wii is the sound fun makes when you have it.
Looks like the comment engine stripped the kana characters out of my post. *frown*

Make that here.

Can we get a Wii pedal instead? Maybe we Revolution owners want to play Guitar Hero too.
...especially because they're only packing 5-shot revolvers. That's nowhere near enough firepower in a nation with such low levels of violent crime.
Google.cn image search for tiananmen and go to page 5 and you'll see images of tank man.
Change the first 7 words to "You can tell how late". I didn't ^H enough when I changed how I wanted to phrase that.

L. Ron already invaded SF. Scientology has a huge building near the TransAmerica pyramid.
TFA says she can only have it on for about an hour. That leaves 23 for sleeping, if you're so inclined.
