Most of the time they watch a video of gameplay. This is because they can't play games, so they most likely wouldn't advance that far, also it's a good way to jump around the game without spending hours on one game.
I would suggest you not go to Universal Studios Orlando as well. They scan your finger print when you enter the park (unless you're a child) and they scan your finger print if you use their lockers, which some rides won't let women take purses on the rides, so you have to use the lockers.
Xbox was and is a total failure so is Zune and everything else microsoft tries to force into peoples face. What is failure to you? The fact that over 70% of the world uses Windows OS? That Xbox live is the best online gaming system there is as of right now and they are only on their second generation console? How long has Nintendo been in the business and they didn't get online until the GameCube and that was with one game. I'd say they are succeeding if they have customers paying for a service that the other two consoles are giving away for free and still can't touch the Xbox Live userbase. As for the failure rate, that is a problem, but not enough for people to stop buying the console. The 360 still sells more units than the PS3. In fact, in September the 360 sold half a million units beating the Wii which has been the leader for months.
The Zune isn't a failure. It isn't as popular as iPod, but what media player is?
They will fail with their upcoming downloadable Original Xbox games since those games won't have achievement points and Halo:CE will not have online play. M$ needs to listen to the audience here, who is saying they will buy Halo:CE again if it has online play.
It seems that a lot of people would like to see a dual monitor on a laptop, which is very possible to do. Hopefully some laptop designer is reading this and considering it.
But rock music on toothbrushes are so rock n roll man. It's almost the equivalent to smashing up a hotel room.
If I ever build a time machine the first thing I will do is bring "rock" artists from the past so they can see themselves in the future and hopefully beat the shit out of their future self. I'll start with KISS and Metallica
According to our forefathers, the right to vote is worth your life. My how times have slipped. But I do agree. I can't blame the voter when you have the choices you have today.
If you don't vote you don't have the right to complain, no matter how bad your choices are.
Voting is about electing the person you think is right for the job. If no one is right for the job, then you don't just hire any idiot off the street to do it. Sometimes not voting is still voting. Plus would you really want a society of citizens not complaining to politicians just because they didn't vote?
wait, you have some "hits" that you're sitting on because you're busy playing another "hit"? I don't think the ones you are sitting on are hits at all.
This is typical of all consoles. Look at the Wii, it hasn't had any real great games come out and the 360 took about a year before it started releasing great games. Next year we will see all 3 consoles really competing and a lot of great games for gamers.
Let's face it the war will be endless until the next format comes out. Consumers will see themselves buying movies on both Blu-Ray and HD-DVD and I'm betting both companies are banking on this happening.
I could see myself, an adult, using this as well to limit my addiction to video games. Sometimes I come home and decide to jump onto Halo 3 for an hour, but end up playing until bedtime.
Sadly I don't think the people would do anything to change it or if they did it would be decades from now. The users would experience the suckiness of the new net and would say apathetically "I guess I'm stuck with it this way." I agree that it would suck to have the gov't get involved, and I'm hoping net neutrality tries some grass roots methods before going the Uncle Sam route, but I have a feeling the only way to stop big companies, like these, is to go the route of legislation.
I find great amusement in a president that says we are fighting for freedom, while at the same time taking those freedoms away. Let the good times roll.
Most store theft is from insiders and not outsiders. What I don't get is why the manager "took the box" from the customer after he bought a new one and was double checking to see if it was indeed a harddrive. You'd think the manager would stand right beside him to make sure that it was a harddrive instead of getting defensive.
I've got a better idea, how about the stores check the returned items. If this is something that has happened in the past, then Best Buy and other retailers should at least check.

Come on that's funny. Where's the mod squad on this one?

I did mean having 2 monitors on one laptop. It could slide out from behind the other monitor.

Well the article forgot this quote from Mozilla's CEO "Did I say that right, Larry?"

Just a heads up, the gradient tool shares the same square as the paint bucket. Took me months to get used to that once 6 came out.

I'm pretty sure my invitation got lost in the e-mail.

I'm pretty sure somebody at Verizon got reamed for this. Let's just hope it was the person who deserved it.
If they know what the problem is, then why do they keep sending customers "repaired" xbox 360s that end up failing?
I'm still looking for the browser based After Effects competitors. Can someone point me in the right direction?
