You get a phone from a carrier and it comes with 1 default tone. If you want anything else, you can pay 2-4 bucks.
Well if you get any kind of phone that has a mini-sd card port you won't have to pay for ring-tones or songs at all. Just take any music you have in your computers library, cut it down to however long you like your ringtones to be then save it to a mini-sd card (which you may have to purchase if you dont already own one) then put the card in your phone and wah-la instant ring-tone. The same goes for music except you dont have to edit the songs unless you want to for some odd reason
I think an even better plan would have been to give away free games to kids with good grades. The company would not have caught him as soon, because they wouldn't have been loosing sales they would just have been loosing inventory. It would take them at least until end of month inventory to figure it out, and then he would have provided an even bigger service to the gamer community by giving out free games!
MSNBC what does the MS stand for? Micro$oft. It is quite obvious why M$NBC is getting out of it's contract with Apple isn't it. M$ teamed up with microsoft for anything isn't this a conflict of interest? The M$ part of M$NBC obviously would want to sell the M$NBC shows for it's own player the Zune! Hello!
Any idiot can see that the U.S. Economy is slowly failing. The reason for this is a combination of several things but the three major contributing factors are:
Big corporations outsourcing all or most manual labor jobs overseas to make there production cheaper.
With most of our manual labor jobs outsourced our economy is forced to rely on intangible things such as software. These intangible things we are depending so heavily on for our exports may be protected under US law but as we can see by what is going on in the WTO right now (See the article on slashdot about the US loosing its cases with WTO) they can not be protected once they
leave the country. This puts the US in quite a predicament.
The mass import of products from countries in Asia by retailers(The leader of which is Walmart ^^) due to the products being cheaper than American equivalents (If there even is such a thing anymore. See 1 for the reason there is a lack of American equivalents in most cases.)
Not to mention the similarities between what is going on right now in the US and the many other fallen empires!
In other words hold on to your hats ladies and gentlemen we are in for a bumpy ride!
Assembly was the first language that I learned. We used it to program 68HC11 Micro controllers. To this day I am glad that I learned Assembly first even though I use C++, Java and Python more than anything now.
This is not just a comment to the post but to all posts asking about the PS3 Price. Just on a random google search the average cost from the top 3 results I have found for a BlueRay DVD Drive like the one contained in the PS3 is about $1198.28. So in light of this the current price of the PS3 is actually rather reasonable. If you don't like the price then don't buy one.
Sorry for the reality check,

Defensive Driving school is not racing school! However I can see how feeling that you have more control over your car might make you feel like you can take risks better.
Yeah, I don't think that there is a way to cool a wooden case efficient way to cool a wood case except to replace it with an alluminum one. Lol! However, anyone how would purchase one of these wooden cases probably doesn't do enough serious computing to need to worry about cooling. Probably just checks email and maybe surfs the web a bit. No serious programmer or gamer would be caught dead with a wooden case.

This is the first steps to mutation. Some large company will start melting the ice, bottling the water and bringing it back to Earth to sell as drinking water for the super rich. Little do they know that there is a micro-bacteria long forgotten in the ice which is what origionally caused the mutation from apes to man a long time ago when martians first landed on earth. This will start the mutation from humans to super humans.
Right on! I don't buy it either. I graduated with a CS degree in 2005 and I have had steady employment since graduation with good pay for where I live! The only people with a CS degree that will be unemployed are the ones who a. Don't go the extra mile b. Are in it solely for the money and not for the fun (because you have to be a geek to love computer science) c. Want more money than they are worth as a entry level employee. This, of course, is not an absolute list but a loose guide. If one avoids these 3 taboos then a job will come along.
It's a lot more than just hardware. There are many variables to the equation, hardware is only a little piece, because My girlfriend and I both have RAZR phones and her cingular service is still much better she will have two bars even if I have none.
Cingular hands down is the best cellular phone company out there! I have four people in my house each with a different phone carrier. I have altell, my girlfriend has Cingular, one of her sons has T-Mobil and the other has Verizon. From personal experience I would have to say that 99.9% of the time her Cingular phone has at least 3 bars even when my Altell has none or one. I would say Verizon runs a close second but as the title says Cingular hands down is the best! I have never seen her phone with less than 2 bars!
It says "Shows cannot be downloaded from YouTube. Instead, they're watched online on the YouTube website, or the YouTube player is embedded in other websites for no cost to the user."

I have been saying this since the beginning of the whole dirty business! This is very obvious and I don't understand why more judges don't just throw this crap right out the window unless it's a case where the person is pirating music and selling it. Other than that there are very few cases, if any, where an individual downloading music to listen to it is going to hurt the record industry. The reasons are as follows.
1. A person whom downloads music via PVP, most likely, does not have the money to purchase the music in the first place. Therefore, the music industry never would have gained any profit from them to start with. They will however gain profit from the person still listening to the music because they will introduce their friends (providing they have any) that have money to the music whom will in-turn go out and purchase the music because they like the band and want to support it (providing they are honest)
2. He or she wants to preview the music before deciding that the band is worth supporting by purchasing their album. In this case if they are honest they will purchase the album later if they decide that they like it.
3. They don't have a credit card to purchase music over a "legal pay service" because they are too young / their parents won't do it for them etc, etc, etc.
The list could go on for infinity the only case I see where it may actually hurt the music industry is where a person downloads music and then sells it! All other cases should be thrown out!
The thing is that too early is what most people say, because they don't want to say the following. World Of Warcraft, Diablo II, Jedi Knight Academy, Everquest. Yes, that is right GAME SUPPORT. Let's get realistic if everyone wants to get realistic. If you want joe schmoe user to adopt you will have to have support for any game he can put in the Dvd Drive.
I set my Mom up on a Linux box and a month later when I went back to see how she was doing she said "Everything worked fine except every game she tried to install didn't work." I then reiterated to her that it was not windows and only games that were supported would work. I then added that optionally you could use an emulator to play other games. She then proceeded to ask what an emulator was.
Yes, it's a harsh reality but in the end this is what most joe schmoe desktop users want. The four main uses of most users are email, web surfing, home office applications, and video games not necessarily in that order (Not everyone is a software engineer / web developer or the likes) and this my fellow Linux advocates is the harsh reality that we have to face. Until Linux can support these four functions with no problems there will NEVER be wide spread adoption of Linux. This then leaves 1 category GAMES! Then the even harsher reality is that this is not under the Linux developers control but the game manufacturer's control, because for true trouble free game support the game has to be written for the OS. Emulators are great but tend to Barf on extremely graphic intensive games. Therefore, Linux would somehow have to become the dominant OS and win over game manufacturers so they will start supporting Linux.
Basically, Linux will always be a geeks OS with a command line and I like it that way! Use it if you want don't if you don't.

Um, no I avoid Wal-mart at all costs because they are killing the economy not helping it!

If only this were the case, but most likely it will be the most expensive dirt anyone has ever bought!

The title is PC not Notebook!
If you are that worried about getting a naked pc why not just buy the components you want and build one from scratch? Makes sense to me anywho.
