you think it'll be awhile before a game actually needs that much space, but you know of a few PS2 games that take up multiple DVDs? you don't think it would be more convenient to have those games on one BD-ROM? i'm sure it will be awhile before they use all the space blu-ray can offer, but to make blu-ray worthwhile, they only have to be bigger than a single DVD. i don't really keep up on console gaming, but i'd assume that the first DVD games weren't 9GB either, just somewhere over 700MB.
right, i never said it did. i simply said that it asks the OS to draw the control in both cases. in one case, the OS draws it directly, in the other case, the OS asks uxtheme.dll to draw it. actually though, i seem to recall that windows classic appearance on xp does not use nsITheme and thus falls back to css? i may be incorrect about that, but i'm pretty sure it worked that way at one point. either way, dropping 2K support alone wouldn't be reason to drop fallback css styling from the default theme.
you're actually incorrect. firefox on win2k does support nsITheme which lets the OS draw controls. the css fallbacks are there for operating systems such as OS/2 and BeOS, which do not support nsITheme.

the problem with that logic is that, in most cases, creators make almost nothing off CD purchases.
if he borrows the CD from you and makes the copy himself, it's legal.
but i don't wanna be a pirate!
it could be rewritten to be 1080p without taking more than a few bits of extra space.
as well as some portable mp3 players like the archos gmini line and pontis' offering.

you got to use it for the entire millenium. it ended december 31st, 2000.
