    I have a blu ray, xbox360, wii, and PC all hooked up to the same tv and the wii and the PC requires nothing special to connect to the internet (outside the wifi which is with it already), unlike xBox360 which requires the Gold membership like you said. Granted, I have to use the pc, xBox 360, or my blu ray to watch optical disks, but does it really matter any more. lol

    It does seem asinine for the Anon coward above to think that MSFT has a say in NetFlix useage, and double rape you to use netflix when there are free alternatives (using the same software) already. Granted, yes, Netflix was on xBox 360 for a while before it was on the other console formats, but that is not the case to worry about anymore. The comment above from "Anonymous Coward" isn't completely insightful, but troll insightful. like symbolset at the top of this section.

    Than again, if they (MSFT) controlled what Netflix was on, they could be slapped by the government like they were in the 90's (on non-competitive issues).

    Logic, though makes sense to us techies, aspies, and Volkins (sp?), will not be adopted by mainstream earthlings society due to the fact that society is too emotional to allow their logical side take over. Live long and prosper, my friend.

    what about 3d-HDTVs? they exists, yet there is virtually no channels worth watching in 3D. Granted, there are some movies, but you have to buy more technology to watch that, and than the software (3d-blu-ray dvds) It is about finances. How many are willing to put up the initial funding to get the product out?

    look at 64 bit processors, became useful for Win machines in about 2005, but never was adopted until it became seamless in Vista / Win7 and now is the dominate requested in 7 due to the fact that companies are making it easier to find over the 32 bit version back in the day. I think that companies have to come together to make it seamless to convert to ipv6 without alot of effort on end user level.

  17. Re:Kill it with fire (but keep the base PSP going) on Sony Reportedly Ends PSP Go Production · · Score: 1

    If we learned anything from Nintendo's Virtual Boy, PS3, and all other systems which are falling behind or failing, A system will fail or not achieve as much success if the populous does not find the content to be as exciting or original enough to buy. IE: Why buy this piece of crap when we already just bought the same piece of crap from company X a few months or years ago? Playstation Move looks alot like the Wii (imo). Virtual Boy just didn't have the right content to launch on a wide scale. Hopefully if Sony wants to compete, they need to make people excited about dropping 200+ dollars on a piece of hardware and software in which will go out of date in 3-6 years from now.

    not all libertarians can be clump with the teabaggers, I just hope that you realize your mistake there. Granted, there are some libertarians who are conservative, but not all. on a better note, Regardless, I think it is a great thing to collect on taxes when needed. I wish the government would act like the fast vehicles and hurry up on certain things and not bicker over partisan issues, but meh, thats life.
